The Story in Brief
Code strings in Google Contacts for Android reveal that the upcoming Pixel 11 series will introduce a HiLight feature, codenamed 'glow'. According to a report by 9to5Google, spotted by gadgets360, users will be able to assign a specific glow colour to individual contacts. The phone’s edge or screen will light up in that colour when the person calls. Google is expected to unveil the feature at the Made by Google event on August 12.
The Indian Opinion
Colour-coded caller alerts sound neat, but they are little more than a cosmetic tweak. Some tech coverage already calls it a 'game-changer' for personalisation, yet the core phone experience barely shifts. The real test is whether Google will extend this feature to older Pixel models via software updates, or lock it behind the Pixel 11 paywall. That answer will tell us how much of this is genuine innovation versus marketing gloss.
