Multiple reports based on leaks say Google’s upcoming “Pixel Glow” camera-related feature for the Pixel 11 lineup is being marketed under a new name: “HiLight.” One source says an image confirms the branding change, while another describes what the feature does in practice. According to Ars Technica and CNET, HiLight replaces or evolves the phone’s existing flash into a multicolor LED module located on the back of the device. The reports state that the LED is designed to illuminate when the phone is placed face down, suggesting it can provide visual notifications without needing the screen. The feature has been rumored previously as “Pixel Glow,” but these sources collectively indicate that the final product name is “HiLight.” Beyond naming and basic function, the coverage does not provide confirmed details on specific effects, customization options, or timing. Overall, the leaks center on the LED hardware change and its intended trigger—lighting up when the device is face down—along with the apparent shift in marketing terminology.
