Google is working on a second generation Tensor SoC

29 October 2021
Next year's Pixel is already being developed with a next-gen Tensor chip.

Actually, I thought Google may create a budget Tensor lineup for the a-series.

    Anonymous, 29 Oct 2021I should hope so. So what's next now, Apple's mak... moreTbh Apple could just stop making chips for 3 years now and still have the best performance, that's just how far ahead of the competition they are.

      On the other hand I do not understand what he says, he responds to a comment that says he uses AMD stating it, and then another about that he uses Mali, decide what you think, or just attack every opportunity you see?

            A god, 29 Oct 2021both are mobile SoCThey are not, it is only based on ARM so the Soc that Microsoft launches based on ARM will also be mobile? On the other hand they have much more space to function, they cannot be compared

              looks like a conned job between google & samsung doing something which is backdated specs.

                      forcefed, 29 Oct 2021Google or samsung is working on the soc? Samsung. Because it's an Exynos rebrand called Tensor. You'll never see Adreno GPU in these chips only Mali because they'll Exynos rebrands

                          Google is working on the next Exynos rebranded chip

                          Corrected 😀

                            A god, 29 Oct 2021both are mobile SoCNo.

                            M1 was designed for MacBook.
                            Then Apple decided to use it for ipad. Obviously weakened.
                            It is like if Samsung uses Corei9 inside their S8 tablet.

                              It'll be interesting to see if they actually end up using updated ARM cores this time. Hopefully they will, the Tensor focus of going in on specific use cases is a really intriguing development and when the late 2021 debut comes with two literally pre-pandemic cores...

                                    Yeah, I bought one but sent it back to the size, actual phone was far to bulky compared to my find x3, I longed for puree android, but the bull wasn't worth it

                                      Is it going to be another Exynos SoC from Samsung but branded Tensor again?
