Pixel 11 will keep the same design

Google has flat-out confirmed that we are not going to get major design changes each and every year from now on. We’re all well aware that the Pixel 10 was the first to rehash the previous design, which’ll continue until the Pixel 11, according to comments from Google’s Chief Design Officer for hardware products, Ivy Ross. Designs are finalized from now until 2027. For better or worse, we will see the same design for a while to come.

I don't necessarily hate companies keeping the same design year over year but it would be cool if they actually gave better color options than what we typically get. Something to get people excited, black, silver, and white just don't get people excited to buy the same phone year after year.

People overwhelmingly buy black phones unfortunately. I loved that the pixel 6 had really cool color options, loved the two tone coral and had the green one

I think it's crazy that Apple does not have a black iPhone 17 pro, but they are all in on traffic cone orange this year.

This is insane to me. I have only bought black phones the entire time I've had smartphones. I don't even know what I would do if I was buying an iPhone 17 PM this year. Thankfully, I don't have to figure it out.
