Alleged Amazon placeholders for Google’s coming Pixel 11 phones briefly appeared online before they were removed, according to 9to5Google. The listings matter because they suggest Google may offer the Pixel 11 line in several more expressive color options than a standard black-and-white set.

9to5Google reported that the deleted listings appeared to show the base Pixel 11 in three finishes: Fuchsia, also labeled Hibiscus; Moss, also labeled Pistachio; and Midnight, also labeled Obsidian. The publication described the images as appearing to be placeholders rather than a formal Google announcement.

The reported Fuchsia or Hibiscus option was shown as a bright pink device, according to 9to5Google. Moss or Pistachio appeared as a green model, while Midnight or Obsidian was the black version.

Color names remain unclear

The naming is not settled, based on 9to5Google’s report. The publication said two different sets of Pixel 11 color names have circulated so far, and both sets appeared in the early Amazon listings.

That means the retail pages may have included both marketing names and alternate internal or regional labels. 9to5Google did not report a final explanation for why both versions appeared together in the removed listings.

The same batch of listings also included alleged Pixel 11 Pro colors, according to 9to5Google. Those entries reportedly showed Pine, also labeled Olive; Light Fog, also labeled Fog; and Sterling, also labeled Frost.

Based on the labels cited by 9to5Google, the Pixel 11 Pro options would include a muted green, a pale blue and a light purple finish. The available report did not include a complete confirmed list of all Pixel 11 Pro colors.

No official confirmation from Google

Google has not announced the Pixel 11 lineup or confirmed its colors in the details cited by 9to5Google. The Amazon pages were described as removed listings, so the information should be treated as a leak rather than final product information.

Retail placeholders can appear before launch with incomplete or temporary details, and 9to5Google characterized the pages as early listings. The report did not include confirmed pricing, launch timing or hardware specifications tied to the color leak.

If the listings reflect Google’s eventual lineup, the Pixel 11 family could arrive with brighter color choices alongside darker and softer options. For now, the reported colors remain unconfirmed until Google releases official product details.
