Insider: the Tensor G4 chip in the Pixel 9 will be almost no different from the Tensor G3 in the Pixel 8
Our colleagues at Android Authority, along with insider and dataminer @Za_Raczke, have shared details about the new Tensor G4 processor that the Pixel 9 flagships will get.
Here's What We Know
According to the leak, the Tensor G4 will be the most minor update to the lineup. The SoC will have eight cores: one Cortex-X4, three Cortex-A720 and four Cortex-A520. That's one less core than the Tensor G3, which has one Cortex-X3, four Cortex-A715 and four Cortex-A510. While the new Cortex-X4 will deliver better single-core performance in benchmarks (by about 11%), multi-core results, will only increase by 3%.

It is also known that the Tensor G4 will come with the new Exynos 5400 5G modem, which should be 50 per cent more power efficient than the Exynos 5300. All other SoC specs will be the same as the Tensor G3 in the Pixel 8 smartphones.
