A couple of things after getting my Google Pixel 11 Pro XL today:

1. Phone still gets hot when using it, not sure if it is better than any previous generation though.
2. Awesome to see the night sight video now works on 0.5x zoom wide angle, I always found the 1x zoom on night sight a bit bummer.
3. 120x zoom doesn't work well if trying on entire human figure (not just face only) or text.
4. Not finding it as much of a upgrade coming from Pixel 9 Pro XL in terms of daily screen usage like browsing webpage, navigate between apps, etc.
5. Cool to see there's AI model can be extended for the camera (ex: 120x zoom model is installed, and I expect more cooler AI camera related feature be expanded)
6. Smooth transition from my old Pixel 9 Pro XL into new Pixel 11 Pro XL. My old phone automatically detected the new Pixel 11 Pro XL and the setup transition is very smooth. My sim card is also automatically turned into esim now.
7. The hilight is pretty pointless. Google might want to allow more customization, otherwise it's truly not worth mentioning it.
8. The magic capture video itself is slightly laggy, the photo it took is quite amazing. But not sure if it is the same quality as taking photos manually.
9. (from the comment) Internet speed test on both phones, Pixel 11 Pro XL returns 302.9 Mbps download 160.9 Mbps upload, Pixel 9 Pro XL returns 59.6 Mbps download 37.4 Mbps upload.

That's pretty much it! Everyone has their own favorable points about Pixel 11 Pro XL, for me it's the night sight video with wide angle supported that's quite unexpected. The rest are probably just fine. Not a bad upgrade for me imo.
