Google is actively working on a completely custom Tensor chip for 2025, but a recent report indicates that the arrival of Tensor G4 is expected in 2024, and it will make its debut with the Pixel 9 series, with some significant changes in store.
As we had previously speculated, the upcoming Google Tensor G4 chip is anticipated to bring some substantial improvements compared to its predecessors. This includes cutting-edge hardware, a new design, enhancements in Samsung’s 4nm manufacturing process, and improved cooling solutions, all pointing towards a significant upgrade for the Tensor chip. However, it’s important to manage our expectations.
Android Authority, citing a “Google Insider,” has reported that the Google Pixel 9 may not feature a substantial upgrade with the Tensor G4 chip as initially anticipated. Instead, it appears that Tensor G4 will represent only a slight improvement over Tensor G3. While Tensor G3 goes by the codename “Zuma,” Tensor G4 is purportedly referred to as “Zuma Pro. This chip is still based on Samsung’s collaboration and manufacturing and is apparently built on the “Ripcurrent 24” development board, suggesting the likelihood of annual updates.
This somewhat modest upgrade is likely due to the fact that Google is reserving its full custom chip ambitions for 2025, with Tensor G5 expected to debut in the “Pixel 10.
While this information provides some insights, it’s important to note that these details are still in the realm of the future, and we are eagerly awaiting real-world performance of Tensor G3 for now. The new chip, which seems intriguing compared to previous models, is expected to debut with the Pixel 8 series, as confirmed by Google for October 4th. Keep an eye out for further developments!
