The Pixel 9 series has already gained more performance thanks to an improved Tensor G4.
Four new Pixel 9 models will be released next fall, as the Pro version will be available in two sizes. Apart from that, Google is integrating the new Tensor G4 chipset, an improvement over the Tensor G3 in the Pixel 8 series, but still not a completely new SoC.
Improvements include a new modem that does more and is said to deliver 5G more efficiently. Good for the battery. Now new information is leaking about Tensor G4’s CPU: there is good news regarding performance.
The Pixel 9 is the weakest version, but currently scores 1.07 million points in the Antutu benchmark. The Pixel 8 had 900,000 points. “Rosettecade“, who were able to obtain this information exclusively, speak of a “very modest” performance gain.
But giant jumps are rare anyway. You should also not forget that we are still 4 months away from the market launch and there will definitely be some optimization before the market launch.
The difference between the Pro models
The new Pixel 9 Pro scored 1.14 million points, the Pixel 9 Pro XL scored 1.17 million points. We currently do not know if this is a coincidence. We actually expect better cooling in the XL model, but not more hardware performance.
Of course, something has changed with the processor cores; All performance levels have new cores. Google is also changing the composition of the CPU cores so that we now have eight cores instead of nine.
Google Tensor G4:
1 × Cortex-X4 (3,1 GHz)
3 × Cortex-A720 (2,6 GHz)
4 × Cortex-A520 (1,95 GHz)
Google Tensor G3:
1 × Cortex-X3 (2,91 GHz)
4 × Cortex-A715 (2,37 GHz)
4 × Cortex-A510 (1,7 GHz)
In general, the Tensor G4 is comparable to the Tensor G3, but the big leap only comes with the Pixel 10 and then the all-new Tensor G5 without Samsung’s involvement.
