Get the scoop on Google's Tensor G6!
Google may be striving for a more potent 2nm manufacturing process for Pixel 11 devices.
In a jaw-dropping reveal, Dan Nystedt on X spilled the beans on an upcoming game-changer – Google's Tensor G6 SoC!
According to a Chinese publication (via 9to5Google), the tech giant is skipping the 3nm process and jumping straight to a mind-blowing 2nm process!
Let's break it down: Reports suggest that Google will be partnering with TSMC for the Tensor G6, which is slated to debut in the Pixel 11 series in 2026.
Why's this a big deal? The 2nm process is a massive leap forward in terms of power potential and efficiency. In fact, the Tensor G6 is likely going to be the first smartphone series to rock a 2nm SoC, putting Google at the forefront of the ever-evolving mobile tech scene.
But wait, there's more! Rumors have been swirling since October 2024 that the Tensor G6 will come packed with some serious AI punch and nifty health-focused features. Sources close to the gChips Division at Google hint at a slew of "Video Generation ML" tools, aimed at ramping up your video editing game, and a host of health-oriented features like improved breathing analysis, sleep apnea detection, enhanced gait analysis, and more!
Now, you may be wondering: Why the sudden decision to skip the 3nm process and dive right into the 2nm pool? Simple! Google is gunning for that performance boost and energy efficiency advantage. The Tensor G5, on the other hand, will still be built using TSMC's 3nm process for the Pixel 10 series.
Keep your eyes peeled: With the Pixel 10 series landing on the shelves this year, expect to see the usual lineup of contenders: the Pixel 10, 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL, and a 10 Pro Fold. An early listing of Pixel 10 cases by ThinborneAC has hinted at some minor physical changes, like the SIM slot, USB-C port, and speaker cutouts. And rumor has it, the base Pixel 10 might boast a third camera lens in its rear setup, upping the game in the design department.
