Google Pixel phones' Tensor chipsets, although often referred to as the company's own chip, are always designed and manufactured in conjunction with Samsung. But a recent report suggests that could change by next year. According to a Taiwanese newspaper , Google has submitted a prototype version of the fully developed Tensor G5 chip to King Yuan Electronics Co, a company that provides chip testing services. The tests will probably not take place until mid-2024, which is in line with the news we heard last year that the expected Google Pixel 10 in 2025 will be the first pixel with Google-designed silicon.
Apparently, Google Fax Lists wants to manufacture the Tensor G5 using the same 3-nanometer processing node you'll find in the A17Pro iPhone 15 Pro chip , made by chip maker TSMC. The Tensor G5, nicknamed "Laguna," will apparently use advanced packaging technology to be slimmer and more energy-efficient than previous Tensors. Google Pixel 8 shown in hand (Image credit: Tom's Guide) Google has good reason to pursue custom chips for its phones. Apple has proven the benefits with its internal chips for mobile devices.
A-series silicon puts the iPhone far ahead of the competition thanks to superior integration between the chip and other components, while also simplifying Apple's supply chain and manufacturing process. However, there's no guarantee that Google's future chip will be better than what the Pixels currently use. For example, Samsung's Exynos chips are not inferior to third-party Snapdragon chips, despite being made almost exclusively for Galaxy devices. Custom chip design is also a big and potentially risky investment, as the Pixel series has never been a huge seller, at least not on the scale of the iPhone or Samsung Galaxy.
