The Pixel 7 series has been pulling a lot of attention from the technophiles thus leading to many different theory propositions. One of them is the second generation of the Tensor chipset debuting on the smartphone. It seems this is going to be true and the Google Tensor G2 GPU and CPU specs have been revealed together with the Pixel 7 Pro’s Benchmark results, quite interesting.
Details of the Tensor G2 GPU and CPU
The next generation of the Tensor has a lot of expectations tied to it after the last Tensor on the Pixel 6 lineup didn’t deliver up to what will make it scale higher compared to its competitors. Well, thanks to Android developer, Kuba Wojciechowski, we have details of the Tensor G2 GPU and CPU and also how the performance of the Pixel 7 Pro will be.
First up, the CPU cores. There isn’t any huge change in this aspect compared to the last Tensor. The chip gets two Cortex X1 cores, and two Cortex A76 cores alongside four Cortex A55 cores, although with higher clock speeds. According to the developer, “All this, combined with the 4nm process node that’s used for the chip, contribute to a ~10% multi-core performance enhancement with a negligible single core change.”
In the GPU section, no doubt there’s a significant boost. Tensor G2 gets the Mali-G710 instead of the Mali-G78. The new GPU will be offering 20 percent better performance, 20 percent better power efficiency and of course 35 percent better for machine learning use, which is like the core functionality of Tensor.
We might not be getting as many improvements as regards the CPU of this chip, but regardless, better power efficiency and heat reduction are what matter. If the brand can reproduce as much efficiency as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus, I think the chip is good to go. According to sources, the Pixel 7 Pro is likely to get 12GB of RAM from this chip. Well, there you have it – Tensor G2 GPU and CPU specs – another rumour to be taken with a pinch of salt till we get official announcements.
