According to the latest leaks and rumorsGoogle’s next SoC for its smartphones Pixel 10he Tensor G5, It is already in an advanced stage of development and will begin to mass production during 2025 at TSMC facilities.
If this information is confirmed, Samsung would stop manufacturing Google’s Tensor processors as it has done until now, with the last one manufactured by Samsung being the Tensor G4 that will be launched with the Pixel 9. The reasons for the change to TSMC These would be none other than the improvements that its new 3-nanometer manufacturing process represents and Samsung’s alleged problems in getting the yield (number of functional chips on each wafer) to reach viable figures in its 3nm GAAFet process.
It remains to be seen whether Google and TMSC can create a SoC that is on par with the high-end of the market in terms of power and performance. Current models such as the Tensor G3, while they have worked well for the AI functions that Google has integrated into its Pixels, have lagged behind the competition in terms of performance.
By 2025, the Google Tensor G5 should have to compete with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 with Oryon architecture, the same one we saw in the Snapdragon X Elite, or even a higher model, since we remember that the Tensor G4 has not yet been launched.
