JAKARTA - Along with the launch of Pixel 7, Google also carries its newest chipset Tensor G2. This time, the company said it would increase battery life and other areas in the heart of the phone.
If you look at the specifications, Google Tensor G2 is almost similar to the previous generation. But now, let's start with the most obvious improvement.
Performance that is claimed to be faster
The G2 Tensor is faster than ever, thanks to the 4nm manufacturing process, while the original Tensor still relies on 5nm nodes. Smaller nodes are known to be able to cram more transistors into chips, thereby improving their performance.
Google Tensor G2 has yet to see significant changes to its CPU compared to the first-generation Tensor chipset. CPU architecture is the same as last year's SoC, which includes two Cortex-X1 cores, two Cortex-A78 cores, and four Cortex-A55 cores.
The only difference with the G2 Tensor is that the Cortex-X1 core has a slightly higher clock at 2.85GHz, not 2.80GHz, and the Cortex-A78 core has a clock at 2.35GHz.
However, according to the leaked benchmark score from NotebookCheck, the G2 Tensor system is still far behind the speed of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.
Increased Language and Language Understanding
Even so, not without another advantage, the G2 Tensor has more advanced machine learning for language and language understanding than its predecessor. Google claims the chipset offers a performance of 60 percent faster, and 20 percent more efficient at this.
Google says it helps Pixel 7 phones to have a better understanding of speech and language. In addition, thanks to the progress of the G2 Tensor chip, Pixel 7 phones can excerpt audio messages in the Google Messages app as soon as users receive them. This capability will be very useful for those who are hard to hear.
Now, Google Assistant voice typing will be compatible with more languages as well, including France, Italy, and Spain. The original Tensor chips are limited to English, German, and Japanese.
More Advanced Cameras
Google Tensor G2 is even smarter than its predecessor, and helps perfect photos further in some ways. The tech giant claims, if the user takes pictures in dim light, then it will be improved because there is a 2x faster Night Sight processing.
The new Pixel 7 phone will also be better at zooming in, providing sharper photos with Face Unblorts and new features such as Cinematic Blur.
GPU More Than Its Leading GPU
The Google Tensor G2 network this time packed a new GPU called ARM Mali G710 MP07. In comparison, the original Tensor has a GPU feature called ARM Mali G78 MP20.
The Mali G710 MP07 is a GPU similar to the one in Dimensity 9000. The increase in the Mali G710 comes not only from the core amount, but also the actual structure. This promises a major improvement not only in graphics, but especially in Vulkan's performance.
Google has not explained in more detail how this GPU will work, but it is hoped that it can make a slight improvement in graphics performance, improve the experience with intensive graphic workloads such as playing games and editing videos.
