The upcoming Signature 27 will be announced today at the Snapdragon Summit. It has been teased by Motorola on their socials and will likely release in the US because they've posted about it on US social accounts.
The 2026 Signature, in the UK, is $1460 USD. In Brazil it is selling for $1230. The Pixel 11 pro XL, which the Signature beats on hardware in practically every way sells for $1300 on Google's website.
It looks interesting... I didn't love the 2026 design [1] but it looks better than whatever this is. Here's pictures:

  That’s not saying much. The selling point of pixels has always been the software.

    The selling point of graphene is basically that you get the pixel software experience.
    It just puts Google in the same sandbox Google puts everyone else.
    Typing this on a pixel running graphene.

    The thing I like about GrapheneOS is it's the most private operating system while still having great usability.
