As we reported on last week<\/a>, the \u201cPixel Glow\u201d feature coming to the Pixel 11 series is likely going to be marketed as \u201cHiLight,\u201d and a new image both confirms that branding as well as showing what the feature can do.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Rewinding a bit, \u201cPixel Glow\u201d has popped up several times over the past few months, with the LED showing up in some of Google\u2019s official teasers<\/a>. It replaces the traditional flash with something that can change color on the fly. But, at least officially, Google hasn\u2019t talked about what it will be able to do. <\/p>\n

Roland Quandt of WinFuture<\/em> took to Bluesky<\/a> with an official-looking marketing image for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, with \u201cHiLight\u201d on full display with that branding. So \u201cPixel Glow\u201d is officially out at this point.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also a brief description of what the feature will do (translated):<\/p>\n

Stay informed without looking at your screen<\/p>\n

When your smartphone is turned upside down, HiLight discreetly illuminates when your favorite contacts call you or when you chat with Gemini.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That lines up exactly with our initial findings on the feature from April<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if Google is bringing anything else to the table with Pixel 11\u2019s \u201cHiLight,\u201d but we don\u2019t have long to wait in order to find out, as the Pixel 11 launch event is barely a week away.<\/p>\n
