Future Google Tensor chips might be designed entirely in-house and not depend on Samsung

I am more than happy to educate you that Intel 7 is just RENAMED Intel 10nm SuperFin.
They moved back to 14nm because the Intel 10nm's yield was lower than expected.
Nevertheless, Intel 10nm's density is roughly the same as of TSMC N7/N7P. So I said *nm is just an advertising terminology. Density and pitch are better parameters.

Will there be no Pixel 9? Or will it Reise Tensor G3?

"challenges in coordination between Google's American and Indian teams and high personnel turnover."
Read: Some stupid high level product manager without any level of knowledge on chip design frustrated the engineering teams and led to significant qualified personel loss

xslvrxslwt, 09 Jul 2023Good. Pixels ain't worth it because of them..Yeah im sure thats why Pixels are junk not the fact they have so many update issues, or the glass at the back on the camera module crack?

Intel was moving to 10nm, they failed, had to go BACK to 14nm for their new chips, finally made 10nm chips years late but yields were so terrible and performance wasn't up to expectations... so went back to releasing new 14nm chips AGAIN, then basically skipped 10nm completely and jumped to 7nm. By that time they were so delayed everyone had surpassed them no matter which way you want to measure it.

Nothing has been confirmed here, just rumor, that also about something that might happen after 2 or maybe even 3 years.

I doubt if Google has the ability to design SoCs and basebands. I bet they'd end up using external licensed basebands and IP cores directly from ARM. They only have experience in designing mobile coprocessors and that was a failure. So I'm rather skeptical.
Besides, considering that Google have been tightening control over Pixel phones(they added hardware anti-roll back, even Apple haven't done so), it may not be a good news in the end.

Wait if the tensor G3 is for Pixel 8 family, shouldn't G4 be for Pixel 9 and G5 for Pixel 10?

"We already know that the Tensor G3...is destined to power the Pixel 8 phones...Apparently, Google did have plans...the Tensor G4 chips destined for the Pixel 10 family."
So are they skipping the number 9 naming or am I missing something?

It would be hilarious if Samsung suddenly figured things out and their 3nm process was amazing, right after Google switches to TSMC
