The Pixel 11 isn't out yet but we already have our first leak for Pixel 12 chip
Key Points:
- A leak from MysticLeaks reveals that Google's Tensor G7 processor, destined for the Pixel 12 phones in 2027, is codenamed "Lajolla," continuing the trend of California-themed internal names.
- The Tensor G7 is speculated to use TSMC’s 2nm manufacturing process, although detailed specifications and performance expectations remain unknown.
- The Tensor G6 processor, expected in the Pixel 11 series launching later this year, is rumored to feature a 2nm TSMC design, a seven-core 4.11GHz CPU, PowerVR CXTP-48-1536 graphics, and a MediaTek M90 modem.
- Google’s Tensor chips typically prioritize AI capabilities over raw performance, suggesting the G7 may focus more on AI enhancements than competing directly with flagship processors from Qualcomm, MediaTek, or Samsung.
