Google is a few months away from announcing its upcoming flagship phones. Pixel 9 will debut alongside the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL, and ahead of the official unveiling, we now have an idea of the vanilla Pixel 9 performance.
Google Pixel 9 recently made a trip to Geekbench. The listing confirms the Tensor G4 Octa-core processor but appears worse than the Tensor G3 on the Pixel 8. According to Geekbench 6, the Pixel 9 running the Tensor G4 SoC records a 1653 score on single-core and a 3313 score on multi-core testing. These numbers are way behind the available figures of the Pixel 8 and even worse when compared to the Qualcomm 8 Gen 3 Chipset.
Of course, these are early numbers, and while we do not expect the Tensor G4 to match the performance of the Qualcomm 8 gen 3 SoC, we expect about 15 – 20% improvement over the predecessor. Perhaps when Google releases the Pixel 9, we will learn about the actual performance and how the device performs in real life.
The listing also confirms other features of the Tensor G4. There is a single prime core clocked at 3.1 GHz, three performance cores at 2.6 GHz, and four efficiency cores at 1.95 GHz. At least, there will be an 8 GB RAM version of the Pixel 9 and a Mali-G715. Yes, it is the same GPU on the Pixel 8, but we expect the new one to have more cores or a higher clock.
