The Tensor G4 is expected to be announced next month, alongside the Google Pixel 9 series that includes three smartphones with the ‘candy bar’ form factor and one foldable handset. Historically, the advertising giant’s chipsets have been significantly slower than the competition and are less energy efficient as Google continues to rely on Samsung’s older manufacturing processes instead of TSMC. However, in the latest marketing material, the Tensor G4 is referred to as ‘game-changing,’ but no evidence is given on how capable the SoC will be. Previous benchmarking revealed that the Tensor G4 obtained a 33 percent performance bump compared […]
