Pixel 11’s Tensor G6 could be fast, just not for gaming

Google’s next Tensor chip has just surfaced in a fresh leak, and the early details are painting a mixed picture. The details shared by Mystic Leaks of the upcoming Pixel 11 point to a redesigned CPU, which is built around ARM’s newer C1-series cores. The rumour also hints at a high-performance “Ultra” core clocked at around 4.11GHz, paired with multiple “Pro” cores clocked at 3.38GHz for better performance overall.

But it’s not all good news.

How the Tensor G6 is improving

Google’s Tensor chips have historically lagged behind Qualcomm and Apple in pure CPU horsepower. So the focus on performance with the newer ARM cores could help the next-gen Google mobile AP finally close that gap. Aside from this, there are also broader improvements expected on the Tensor G6. A big one is the move toward TSMC’s advanced manufacturing process. The upcoming
