Google is reportedly set to launch the Pixel 8 Series for this year, 2023, which will feature Google’s own chipset, the Google Tensor G3.
Although not officially announced, the basic specifications for this chipset seem to have been leaked beforehand. According to Fonearena, the Google Tensor G3 will use a 1+4+4 setup, consisting of a Cortex-X3 prime core clocked at 3.0GHz, 4 Cortex-A715 performance cores clocked at 2.45GHz, and 4 Cortex-A510 efficiency cores clocked at 2.15GHz.
Additionally, the chipset is said to utilize a 10-core Mali-G715 Immortalis GPU clocked at 890MHz, which also supports Ray-Tracing. The same chipset will also have AV1 encoding support, marking the first time a smartphone chipset supports this codec.
The chip will also feature a new TPU with the codename “Rio” clocked at 1.1GHz and second-generation GXP. The chipset will support UFS 4.0 and will continue to use the Exynos Modem 5300.
