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.

    Performance I don’t give a shit.

    But efficiency I care a lot especially in a laptop. Much more on the phone.

    Pixel 5 with a 3 year old mid range SoC can run android 14 UI at 90 FPS pretty much fine.

      That’s a perspective I didn’t consider

        Yeah so for Pixel 8 you just need a bit more for 120Hz instead of 90Hz.

        A different story is for gaming. But for mobile gaming I’m more a fan of Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch. Devices that have higher TDP.
