Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro details emerge, including 2nd-gen Tensor chip

The flagships aren’t expected to launch until this coming fall

The first piece of reliable information surrounding Google’s Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro has surfaced, including codenames and details surrounding the devices’ new Tensor chip.

According to 9to5Google., the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are known by the codenames “Cheetah” and “Panther” internally at the tech giant. Google always works with a very particular codename theme. For instance, before the Pixel 6, Google used codenames related to aquatic life for its Pixel and Nexus devices. The Pixel 6 series used avian codenames such as “Raven.”

The unannounced Pixel 6a will reportedly continue to use an avian codename, with Google reportedly landing on “Bluejay.” Further, a rumoured foldable Galaxy Note-like device could be known by the codename “Pitpit.”

Additionally, 9to5Google’s sources indicate that the Pixel 7 series will utilize the second-generation Tensor chip called the ‘GS201.’ This model number is slightly different from the current chip included in the Pixel 6 series. Google’s 2nd-gen chip is reportedly known as “Cloudripper” internally at Google.

The GS201 chip will supposedly feature an unreleased Samsung modem listed as ‘g5300b.’ For reference, the Pixel 6’s modem is g5123b i.e., Exynos Modem 5123. The new second-generation Tensor chip likely features the Exynos Modem 5300.

It’s important to keep in mind that these are just rumours and the actual reveal/release of the Pixel 7 is likely still several months away. The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro will likely launch this coming fall.

Google's own processor Tensor runs out for the first time, so is Pixel 6 like this?

不知道為何 Google 已經很久沒有用上旗艦處理器了,因此也開始被消費者嫌棄,但之前突然公告將在下一代自家旗艦 Pixel 6 系列使用自家研發的 Tensor 處理器,或許和蘋果一樣,用自己處理器做最好的自己產品。雖然目前尚不知曉這款 SoC 的正式商用名稱,但有傳言稱它是 Samsung 與 Google 合作製作。早前預計它會像 2021 年的其它旗艦處理器一樣,採用全新的 ARM Cortex-X1 設計,至於這顆處理器性能如何?近日一款名稱直接標示為「Google Pixel 6 Pro」的機型,在跑分平台 Geekbench 5 曝光了其處理器架構與性能。架構方面,與其他 Cortex-X1 架構處理器差別很大,為 2 個 Cortex-X1、2 個 Cortex-A76、以及 4 個 Cortex-A55 核心。跑分單核 881、多核 2938,單從跑分來看,已經可以追上 Snapdragon 865 SoC 了,單核與 Snapdragon 888 接近,但多核差距巨大,不過作為 Google 自家第一顆量產處理器,能有這樣的成績相當不錯,而且由這處理器的設計來看似乎「另有所圖」。當然,處理器不能單純只看跑分性能,功率、發熱也是重點,就架構來看,兩個高性能的 X1 核心,比起其他單一 Cortex-X1 架構處理器有著明顯的優勢,但老舊的 A76 在功耗確實不太好,至於 4 個…

More than in recent years, 2023 has been extremely busy for video games.
