Google Tensor G4

Google Tensor G4

The Google Tensor G4 is the processor powering Pixel 9 series phones that debuted in August 2024. It certainly is well-connected, with both 5G and Wi-Fi 7 onboard. According to reports, the chip is built using one of Samsung's 4 nm processes making for decent power efficiency, as of late 2024.

The CPU part of the SoC is made up of 8 cores. The Cortex-X4 reportedly runs at 3.1 GHz and is the fastest of the bunch. Then there are also 3 Cortex-A720 cores (2.6 GHz) and 4 very frugal Cortex-A520 cores (1.95 GHz). This setup is only just enough for middling benchmark scores that are a far cry from what the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, not to mention the A18 Pro deliver.

The G715 MP7 reportedly serves as the graphics adapter.
