- Pixel 11 Pro Fold wallpapers have been spotted in Android 17 beta.
- Leak suggests possible green and black color options based on matching wallpaper themes.
- Pixel 11 Pro Fold’s design expected to remain largely similar, with only minor tweaks like a slightly thinner build.
The Pixel 11 series might still be months away, but it looks like Google has already started working on the software for its next-generation Pixel phones behind the scenes, as wallpapers for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold have now been spotted in the Android 17 beta.
It’s only been a few days since Google released the latest Android 17 developer beta, but while digging through the build, software engineer Dylan Roussel (via Android Authority) managed to extract thumbnail previews of wallpapers believed to be for the upcoming Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
The developer shared two wallpapers included in the build: ‘Pine: Tidal Swirl’ and ‘Midnight: Lunar Tides.’ While Google could still change these ahead of launch, they give us a rough idea of what to expect.

Google usually matches device colors with corresponding wallpapers, and based on these, it looks like the Pixel 11 Pro Fold could come in at least green and black shades. Of course, this is still early, and things could change, but it’s an interesting early hint at Google’s direction.
It’s not uncommon for brands to include assets like wallpapers in early Android builds, but it’s still surprising to see them surface this early, especially when we’re still months away from the official launch.
As for the rest of the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, earlier leaks suggest Google may stick to a similar design, with only minor refinements like a slightly thinner build and subtle camera module changes compared to the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
And if you were hoping Google would introduce a wider foldable this year to compete with Samsung’s rumored Wide Fold or even Apple’s foldable plans, it looks like that might not happen, at least not this time around.
Android Central’s Take
Wallpaper leaks might not sound like a big deal, but they usually give us a hint at the colors and overall direction. I’m actually a bit disappointed that no blue wallpaper has shown up yet, especially since it could mean Google is moving away from the Moonstone color — I’m just hoping nothing is finalized this early.
