It will reportedly use the latest ARM CPU cores. The Google Pixel 11 lineup is likely to be announced in August, if the company sticks to its usual launch...
Tensor is not the reason to buy a pixel. Software is the only reason you should buy one. Get a mediatek or Snapdragon powered phone if you want something to impress.
The only reason to go for a Pixel is the software (either PixelOS or GrapheneOS)
They don’t have the best performance, thermals, battery, cameras, etc., but they seem pretty well-rounded, if a bit of a poor value on the hardware front, while offering good software options.
If you want another option that has good software (LineageOS, iodeOS, e/OS, etc.), you have Fairphone, which also has a very repairable design and uses fair materials and production! And the hardware itself of Fairphone is pretty solid for the price, given that it’s competing with other midrange phones.
If you want great hardware for the price, you have Nothing (which has a relatively bloat free stock OS) or the various Chinese brands (Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo, with varying levels of bloat each. It’s usable, most of it can be disabled, but it is certainly annoying).
The past few years they’ve been particularly behind snapdragon. It’s a fucking shame, because I want to get one, but not unless they’re on par with the A series or snapdragon.
op didnt say they wanted a NASA computer. they’re asking what’s so special about the tensor compared to any other mobile chipset if it doesnt do anything special.
The only thing ive seen that sets it apart is A: The Titan security chip
and B: the shittier cell antennas compared to Qualcomm
Is anyone really impressed with tensor? They’ve had it since pixel 6 I think and I’ve never read anything stupendous about it.

They’re nothing special, gets the work done. I’m guessing power efficiency will be the goal in mature iterations like apple chips.

It’s a phone cpu meant for a phone. It’s not a nasa computer
