Google recently held an event to introduce the new Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro models. These flagship gadgets stand out thanks to their features, but for tech lovers, the Tensor G3 CPU, which drives the Pixel series, stole the show. The Tensor G3 is Google’s third-generation, specially developed mobile CPU, for those who may not be aware.
This CPU is more effective and potent than its predecessors since it was created using a 4nm manufacturing technique. Recent data, however, shows that the G3 was initially designed to be significantly more potent than it is now. Here are the specifics…
Tensor G3: Not the Fastest Chip, But Still Very Powerful
Tensor G3 was anticipated to be more potent than it is right now. Early leaks claimed that the CPU cores might have greater peak frequencies. Prior to publication, Google made an unexpected adjustment and reduced the frequencies.
It’s unknown why this alteration occurred. While some believe that Google was concerned with battery life, others think that a hardware flaw may have prevented the higher frequencies from being used consistently.
The Tensor G3 is still a highly potent processor despite the lower frequencies. In terms of processing AI, it delivers a considerable performance boost over the Tensor G2. It’s important to keep in mind, though, that it doesn’t offer the same degree of raw performance as some of the other top-tier CPUs available, such the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
