Why do leaks happen?

Product leaks, like these Pixel 11 details on Amazon, often occur when retailers or supply chain partners accidentally publish information ahead of an official announcement. Sometimes, they're deliberate 'controlled leaks' by the company itself to build hype or test public reaction. Either way, it creates a buzz before the big reveal.
