Google seems to have an exciting plan for the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro when it comes to CPUs.
The rumor mill is currently hot on the Pixel 9 for fall 2024. Google may take a different approach and take a very decisive step. So far it has been said that Google will only use an actual custom chipset from the Pixel 10 or 2025. But current evidence says otherwise.
The Tensor G4, the chipset in the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro, appeared in benchmarks a few days ago. What was unusual about it was its original composition, because It has eight cores instead of nine or ten. It will be based on Samsung Exynos 2300 (9 cores) or 2400 (10 cores).
The Pixel 9 chipset does not resemble the well-known chipset
The hypothesized regression would not necessarily be surprising; Qualcomm is reportedly planning to use eight cores instead of nine for its 2024 chipset. Then there will be two high-performance cores and six for efficiency. The previous intermediate step of dividing the CPU cores into three tiers should be unnecessary.
The Tensor G4, which now appears in the benchmark, should still have a three-phase section, the benchmark reveals. About cluster 1 performance with 4 cores at 1.95 GHz. Cluster 2 should have three cores with 2.6 GHz for medium tier and one high-performance core with 3.1 GHz for cluster 3. Also worth noting is that the Pixel 8 has higher clock speeds than the Tensor G3 on all cores.
In other words: Google can In early 2024, we will try with Tensor G4 to design the chip more according to our own ideas. Whether there’s an Exynos base for it from Samsung is still up in the air. Even if the Tensor G4 is probably leaning more towards a custom chip, I wouldn’t expect performance miracles, but focus more on AI processes.
