9to5Google • • technology
Key Points:
- Google's upcoming Pixel 11 series will feature the Tensor G6 chipset, reportedly the first to use TSMC's cutting-edge 2nm manufacturing process, ahead of Apple's A20 chip release.
- The Tensor G6 is expected to offer modest upgrades, including new CPU cores, an improved but still outdated GPU, and enhancements to the security chip and modem.
- Economic Daily News highlights that Google will have about a month of exclusivity with the 2nm process before Apple and other chipmakers like Qualcomm and MediaTek adopt it later this year or in early 2027.
- Google has confirmed an August 12 event to officially launch the Pixel 11 series and Pixel Watch 5, with recent leaks revealing new color options and potential price increases.
- Despite the new chipset, the Pixel 11 is anticipated to be an incremental update rather than a major leap forward in smartphone technology.
