As Google<\/strong><\/a> gears up for the launch of its Pixel 8 series smartphones on October 4, the company is also navigating the intricacies of its chipset strategy. While the upcoming Pixel 8 series will be powered by the Tensor G3 SoC, crafted using Samsung\u2019s cutting-edge 4nm process, the long-term vision for Google\u2019s<\/strong><\/a> chipsets appears to be evolving.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n In a strategic shift, Google<\/strong><\/a> seems to be delaying its fully customized Tensor<\/strong><\/a> chipset plans for the Pixel 9 series. Instead, the company is set to enhance the Tensor G3 SoC for the Pixel 9 lineup, addressing efficiency and heating concerns that arose with the Tensor G2 chipset found in the current Pixel 7 series.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Earlier reports had hinted at a collaboration between Google<\/strong><\/a> and TSMC<\/strong><\/a> to produce a bespoke Tensor SoC, codenamed Redondo, exclusively for the Pixel 9 series. However, due to missed deadlines, this ambitious project has been postponed until 2025. In the interim, Google aims to refine its chipset offerings.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Google\u2019s Tensor chipsets are an amalgamation of designs, with the majority sourced from Samsung\u2019s Exynos<\/strong><\/a> chipset, while Google customizes specific elements tailored to Pixel smartphones. An industry insider confirmed these developments, revealing that Google has established a dedicated development board named ChallengerDeep to oversee the creation of fully customized chipsets in partnership with TSMC<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Additionally, reports suggest that the upcoming Tensor G4 chipset will be identified as Zuma Pro, signaling incremental improvements compared to the Tensor G3. The Pixel 10 series is anticipated to introduce the culmination of Google\u2019s chipset ambitions with fully customized Tensor chipsets.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n In parallel, GSMChina has divulged the model numbers for the Google Pixel 9 series and the Google Pixel 8A smartphones. Notably, the Pixel 8A is expected to be denoted by model numbers GKV4X and GGH2X, while the Pixel 9 series will bear model numbers GRY0E, GR83Y, and GBDU9.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n These developments coincide with Google\u2019s aspiration to offer extended software support, potentially exceeding Samsung by delivering up to five major Android updates.
