Google Tensor G2 is fabbed on 5nm process as per company spokesperson

12 October 2022
Previous information suggested the latest Google chipset used a 4nm process.

Nick Tegrataker, 13 Oct 2022So Tensor G2 really is more of a midrange SoC by today'... moreIts not a Midrange...the performance is really smooth,the scores are almost on par with s22's

    So Tensor G2 really is more of a midrange SoC by today's standard. I only use high-end smartphones so I guess it's an automatic no from me.

Some reviewers get products for review faster than other reviewers. Another reason is that with the embargo, the reviewers won't feel to need to rush and publish their reviews as fast as they can, so they can focus on the quality of their reviews.

          I wonder if there is even a way to verify if its fabbed on 4nm or 5nm..? even if they were to say its 4nm despite making it on 5nm, we'll just have to take their word for it..

                      you have to suffer, 12 Oct 2022who said that tensor chip are for gaming? also nvidia gpus ... morebecause Nvidia first focused on gaming but after reaching peak change to AI just watch nvidia YouTube.
                      and for tensor are saying they need develop their own cpu first?like i said it will be to late in the future.
                      why bother RnD cpu first when samsung fab and exynos lying around 🤣.
                      but think positive if google succeed.maybe latter all cpu oem like snapdragon.mediatek.even apple will adopted google AI so they can focused to deliver more performance .

All chipsets have neural engines of some sort and I very much doubt Tensor uses some super duper special design, it's most likely just tweaked Exynos. Samsung uses neural engine for a lot of "Ai" stuff and Apple's Bionic as well, very complex stuff like Google (speech and image processing).

                          Anonymous, 12 Oct 2022you all have brain damage if you think tensor for gaming. ... morewho said that tensor chip are for gaming? also nvidia gpus are different things. they can do AI but also good at gaming.

                            rumors says Huawei developing cpu AI for phone.
                            you know in china they says everything is on AI like bridge even satellite.
                            if google didn't start now .it will be to late in the future. got it?

                              you have to suffer, 12 Oct 2022still on samsung process😒😒 google wont bother spend money... moreGoogle is possibly using Samsung chips to keep Samsung pacified that Google is not going after their business. Google is growing their phone business share. At the expense of whom? Part of the share growth will come from Samsung. Using Samsung chips sort of throws Sammie a bone with more chip business.

                                  Their RTX card are designed for gaming first, and have been integrating more and more AI functions with each generation, but that's not their market.

                                  Jetson, Xavier, Hopper accelerators (or cards as they also have CUDA cores) aim toward AI and machine learning, and are much more expensive.

                                  Tensor SoC, are, well, oriented for google's machine learning implementations on phones, but the first one at least, wasn't really that different than current SoCs from competitors. It's just that Google's software actually takes advantage of its capabilities.
