Pixel 7's Tensor 2 chipset might offer only modest performance improvements

22 June 2022
A bricked Pixel 7 Pro prototype was examined, which revealed the presence of a Cortex-A55 cores. This means no ARMv9 designs for the next Google chipset.

Most of people don't even know that Google makes phones. Plus, Pixel phones are not sold officially in your country, they are officially sold in 8-9 countries around the world. I checked how much I get for a pixel 6 Pro, you get the same money like on a Samsung s22 plus. I get 400 for a pixel 6 Pro and 460 on a galaxy s22 plus. But I paid 100 plus for a Samsung s22 plus. So, you are better with a pixel 6 Pro. I live in a country were pixels are officially sold.

              At least the phone display will be 120 hz unlike the 60 hz bs on iPhones still in 2022

                i think the pixel A series is only worth the time and money

They will say they don't accept it (if it's some older model). Or they will give you peanuts money for it, because they say they do not know this kind of models and they do not want to risk it.
                  And is the same case scenario with some OnePlus phones.
                  Even Huawei without Google services and so on, is seen a little better.
                  And is a Central European country.
                  I usually stay away from this brands in here. Because their reselling value is very bad. And even if you want to sell it by yourself on some online bazars, people will be skeptical in buying them.

                      At first I was annoyed by the use of Tensor on Pixel phones because I love playing emulators and supposedly Snapdragon is the undisputed leader in that department but I don't care about that anymore, Tensor Gen 1 works similar to Snapdragon 888, Pixel 6a will use Tensor Gen 1, for only $449.

                      #TeamPixel

                        I will never buy a Pixel again until they return to using Snapdragon. I want a PlayStation 2 and GameCube in my pocket all the time if I'm paying for a flagship.

                        The Pixel line died to me after the 3. The 3 was the last to have a flagship Qualcomm and fingerprint scanner on the back. I hate face ID since I play my phone in the dark with zero lighting. Pixel 5 is too weak to play PS2 games and had worse speakers and display.

                        Pixel was at its best with the 2 and 3. The 2 XL in panda was the nicest but hated the display. I prefer the smaller ones of the 2 & 3. The Pixel 3 looking like a Galaxy S8 but released a year later.

                          Maybe fast hardware, but phone will always be in beta software! Only naive kids buy pixels for the brand. Smart people wouldn't pay full price for neverending beta phones.

                            Substantially improve efficiency and I'm in for the 7a.

                              It's like that with every generaniotal model from any other company. If you got 6, skip 7, get the 8.

                                big cat names for a phone codename... how innovative!! also cant just google use dimensity 9000 for tensor 2 instead of exystove??
