Google teamed up with Samsung once again to build the Tensor G3, the chipset that powers the new Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. It comes out of Samsung’s 4nm foundries and features a 9-core CPU (1x Cortex-X3 + 4x A715 + 4x A510) and an ARM Mali-G715 GPU.

I don’t care about gaming performance on a phone, but battery life in Pixel 7 have been worse than in competitors like Galaxy S23.
I would never believe that in my entire life. Samsung batteries are the worst, they die quickly and have short lifespans, not to mention they expand and blow up of you don’t use your device.
Battery life <> life span
Life is how many hours on a charge, while life span is how many charges.
According to GSMarena the battery life of the Pixel 7a is 76h, The Samsung S23 is 101h. S23 Ultra is 126h.
76 hour for the Pixel 7a is a pretty poor result.

Exynos Samsung batteries. Tensor is based on Exynos, and S23 has only Qualcomm variant. That’s why Pixel 7 drains battery faster than S23.
That and a poor thermal design.
