The new chip developed by Google would be more efficient on the graphics part but would look like the rest of the previous generation.

The wait is coming to an end. Thursday, October 6, Google will officially present its next smartphones, the Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro.

The Pixel 7 will carry the second chip developed specifically by Google

These new phones have already been fanned by the manufacturer himself, who unveiled the designs last May to avoid leaks of all kinds on the Web.

The manufacturer has however kept a few cartridges for its presentation event and has not given details on the technical sheet of the next Pixels.

Unfortunately for Google, the developer Kuba Wojciechowski, well known for his indiscretions on the brand’s current projects, has just published a lot of information on the next processor that will power the new smartphones, the Google Tensor G2.

A Google Tensor G2 that would particularly improve graphics performance

The Google Tensor G2 should once again be inspired by an architecture provided by Samsung. The chip should be engraved in 4 nm, against 5 nm on the previous model. Inside, we would once again find an eight-core configuration with two Cortex-A1 cores, two Cortex-A76 cores and four Cortex-A55 cores in detail.

The Cortex A-76 cores would offer a 100 MHz higher frequency at 2.35 GHz, which would allow the CPU part to offer a performance increase of around 10%. It would therefore be quite difficult in the context of average use to see a real difference.

The GPU part would receive more attention with the use of a Mali-G710 processor which would replace the Mali-G78 MP20 of Google Tensor, the first of the name. This new graphics chip would offer performance up 20%, with consumption down 20%. Machine learning tasks would be 35% faster.

The last novelty of the Google Tensor G2 is to be found at the modem level, with the adoption of a new model SR300, still developed by Samsung which would provide better connection stability and higher speeds.

In parallel, Google is already working on Google Tensor 3, a new chip engraved this time at 3 nm with the latest process developed by Samsung, for a probable Google Pixel 8 in 2023.
