Google Taps TSMC for 3nm Tensor G5 Chip in Pixel 10 & Pixel 10 Pro
Get ready for a power boost! Google is partnering with TSMC to build the Tensor G5 processor on a 3nm node, expected to debut in the Pixel 10, 10Pro
Google's Tensor G5 Goes Head-to-Head with Apple's A17 Pro with TSMC's 3nm Powerhouse The battle for smartphone supremacy just got hotter! Word on the street is that Google is pulling out the big guns for its next-gen Tensor G5 chipset, ditching Samsung and hitching its wagon to TSMC's cutting-edge 3nm manufacturing process. That's right, the same tech that's powering Apple's A17 Pro in the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. While the Tensor G4 sticks with Samsung, the G5 is rumored to be powered by TSMC. (Image source: Google - edited) This is a big deal for a few reasons. First, it means that Google is serious about competing with Apple in the premium smartphone market. Second, it suggests that the Tensor G5 could be a beast of a chip, offering significant performance and efficiency improvements over its predecessors. Why the Switch? Rumor has it that Samsung's 3nm process has been plagued with low yields and power-hungry chips. TSMC, on the other hand, is known…
