I am an INTENSE Pixel 7 Pro used and never has this phone ever faultered. It's flawless, at least for me
Only when taking too much videos and pictures it will heat up and drain battery too fast 😢
@@Mr.J_Aruba The real culprit is manufacturing process aka Samsung. If TSMC made the chip, it could have performed better.
@@avs_ytb google better get tsmc to work on the chips for the p8, otherwise they'd be the only one left behind in dat regard
Google Pixel 7 Pro is a great phone 📱
How is the battery? Heard that it's battery is not good. So how is your experience?
Tensor soc should be made by TSMC we don't need more raw power but we definitely need more efficiency & stability!
Is it possible when Tensor is based on Samsung Exynos? Whether Google has a contract with Samsung on chip manufacturing and whether TSMC would manufacture Exynos-based chips are the questions.
I strong believe that Google should keep developing the tensor chip they are in the right direction .
i have the pixel 6 pro , it never stutters or gets slow on me and having all the Google's amazing software and smooth animations and TOP TIER Camera 📸 ohhh myyy. can't wait for the pixel 8 with the flat screen 🤤🤤🤤🤤🥰🥰🥰
Liked your comment from my pixel 6

I think Google is following Apple's footsteps cautiously. Developing their own chip and ecosystem. It's a welcome step. Ofcourse there will be some stutters in the beginning but they are doing a smart job by covering any shortcomings of hardware by giving you the best Android software experience. I suppose by Tensor G5, they should be able to put out a competent "flagship" processor. However, they will have to achieve it by introducing more exclusive features through Pixel drop along the way making 'The Pixel Experience' more unique for their customers.
It's not Google's designed. Its just Exynos with some minor changes.
I agree
I wish they do not follow the crappy Apple path. It is nice to be able to unlock bootloader (is having control over your own device so much to ask?)
@@GurdeepSingh-yz9oyDefinitely not minor. They are custom designing the AI software with processor design.
Not many can do it.
Also i do not game and will be waiting for Pixel 7a and it's image computation.
@@shrin210 Of course not. Google phones are heating too much now as same as Samsung phones integrated with Exynos does.
I hope they resolve all the connectivity issues more than upping the processing power. The poorly implemented and optimized Exynos modem sucks. My 7 Pro is better than my 6 Pro but still leaves much to be desired.
The biggest problem is the TDP,
these phones are garbage and they overheat and can't even manage to get 1.5 hr SOT
Lol, with my faulty pixel 6 and 47% mobile drain all the time I get 7 SoT
@@jaceklemanski6843 Cool story bro
I'm content w/ my Pixel 7 (Tensor G2), but I'd consider trading it in for a Pixel 8, _if_ it's smaller & lighter. I don't care to have the "fastest" phone.
I totally agree with you!
I am waiting for my P7 to arrive. I was worried about the weight. Should I be?
Coming from a 4a (5g)... I feel I'm getting the same phone, but in a renewed style 🤔
@@AmericoVespucioo I think you'll be pretty comfortable with the Pixel 7, considering your existing phone. I was coming from the more diminutive Pixel 5.
Yes, about ther only thing I care about is getting a smaller pixel device which is also premium.
Zenfone 9 size would be perfect, I am slightly laughing with ther idea of getting one, but NO! I must wait for a good pixel to come out, I cannot switch unless GrapheneOS one day supports something either
@@WitchMedusa I've watched many RUclips Tech reviewers praise the Zenfone 9. It does come with a hefty price tag.
Pixel 7a is coming out soon (I'm jealous that it has a higher Megapixel count than the Pixel 7), perhaps this is worth the wait?
As a grown adult, and over my "video game" playing days, I care more about AI and camera quality on my phone, than benchmark scores.
Yup 👍
For me, i barely play mobile games since i have a pc. So im thinking about getting the pixel.
Most of the people complaining about the Tensor chip are either gamers or from India.@@therealqualong
I'm proud to have my Pixel 2 XL last for now 4 and a half years. It's kept up by large. I hope to upgrade to the Pixel 8 Pro.
I want tensor to just become the TPU and is added to other chips, replacing or adding to the existing apu. Therefore, they could have a tensor powered watch, which would just be a regular watch CPU with the tensor tpu. This could be expanded to all sorts of other tech, like smart speakers.
I think Google is focused on scale and the mid-range smartphone space is where most people sit on the spectrum of smartphones.
For tech enthusiasts, a high end smartphone with a high benchmarking chip is nice, but most people just don't care.
Devices like the Galaxy A54, Pixel 7, and iPhone 14 are where most people reside.
Enthusiast are the only people hyping Pixel everyone else just buys an iPhone or Samsung.
It's plain to see that Google is ok with a subpar Pixel as long as Shareholders make maximum profit.
Shareholders come FIRST Customers Second.
I want a better GPU for next model. Less battery drain when taking a lot of pictures or video in a day (at an event ) and not overheating while doing so. Faster picture processing as sometimes it takes too long. Especially when taking too much pictures at once.
Your Pixel should be able to keep up with your smartphone usage. I think Google needs to dial back the computational photography some and use updated camera hardware.
@@jevonsims900 fr
Apple took a while to make their own chip, Google is simply doing the same thing.
Idk about that one chief. Samsung also did their best, but ultimately scrapped the idea
@@mightymarlin97 C'mon human. No one asked for that type of comment!!!!!
@@mightymarlin97 and Google is using Samsung tech for their tensor
Apple has to make their own chips Google doesn't.
TSMC is Available too.
Mediatek
Qualcomm
Hell, a customized Unisoc would be better than Tensor.
@@mightymarlin97 Sammy ain't Google though...being the 3rd most valuable tech company, I think they can pull it off.
They also need give it an additonal yr of updates like the other oems
Would be nice if Google made their tensor powerful enough to apply their same processing from their photos to videos
Apparently that's a rumored feature in the Pixel 8 series.
Fully functional, conversational Google Assistant equivalent to Chat GPT. Being able to call your new Assistant any pet name you choose. Increased offline capabilities across all apps. Heavier AI implementation across apps, remember the AI to-do list/tasks they demonstrated last year??
The only thing I will say about sustainability and longevity of the device is that Google seemingly don't give a hoots about that, the Pixel 4 is plenty good enough to keep getting updates and Google is like "yeah nah bro no way" which is disappointing.
blame qualcomm for that
The the 855 is too old,my 865 phone is old too
Watching this on a Pixel 6. For my day to day use it has been an excellent phone. Basically media consumption, productivity, and light gaming. The phone also has a very good camera. Might consider trading up to the Pixel 8 if they put a good modem in it. Otherwise I will have three more years of security updates remaining on the 6 giving me plenty of time to decide on my next phone.
Google keeps coping. Saying that high benchmarks "aren't what they're aiming for," and that Bard is "meant to be boring." What company functions like this?
aren't "powerful enough" means bad? Google may not be your Xiaomi or OnePlus, but they have their own credentials to have their own customers, not the one who just every day sticking their eyes on mobile games
UI Software and battery > number of benchmarks
Sure a sports car is faster than a basic sedan, yet it's less usable and lower mpg
Find what you want more and buy accordingly
Question: What company functions like this?
Answer: Apple Inc.
I just hope they ditch the Exynos, even Samsung got rid of their own mess of a chipset
I got a 7 Pro currently and other than average battery life it's very enjoyable. Came from a S21 Ultra which wasn't a very big upgrade at all but to be back in the Google ecosystem is awesome
You mean way below average battery life
@@andreamitchell4758 wouldn't say below average IMO. Could always be better but I get through a day
Making a custom chip is a big challenge for any company including someone like apple who took forever to build their own thing. I am guessing at least 5 years are required to build a chip and advancing on it to truly compete with your rivals for a company like google. Tensor G3 was definitely a big leap from G2, give it couple of more years and by the time G5 or G6 comes out, Pixels will be very efficient and powerful at the same time. Considering there has been 8 generations of pixels, Google definitely is serious about their phone.
I had a really bad experience with Pixel 6 Pro. I actually really want Google to win. Their midrange phones are fantastic, but I want a true iPhone competitor: premium materials, camera system that is equal to or better than latest Galaxy Ultra, PERFECT communications hardware (an antenna that performs equal to or better than iPhone and a modem equal to or better than Qualcomm), a chip that is equal to or grater than Apples latest, and a screen that is equal to or greater than Samsung's best mobile screen tech. I want a Pixel with absolutely no shortcuts or corner cutting. A true Pixel Ultra.
Got me a pixel 6a and i love it dont care for the AAA processor all i want is a smart phone
I got the pixel 6a ( had used the pixel 2 before )
I was surprised of how flagship like it felt for that price.
But one thing bugged me, the heating and battery drain!
It bothered me so much in had to sell it.
The phone never felt slow, but always heated during normal use (even more on lte)
To give you a comparison, I got the moto edge 30 later, that thing heated way less and gave me more battery than the pixel 6a even though it had a 6.5 inch 120 hz screen screen with only a 4000mah battery!
What I mean is, I'm happy with google wanting to make their own custom chips. And I don't want them to use the strongest chip. But I just want them to make it efficient with good thermals. Honestly, the Mali gpu is shit!
They made a good start with the tensor, hope they concentrate more on providing a good chip.(with good thermals and a good gpu) . Hope they team up with tsmc for their production or make a custom chip with Qualcomm. Google is a very big company whose main income isn't from the sale of their smartphones, so i think they can take come risk and come up with better solutions!
I don't have any other problems with the pixel! (Except the charging too)
I just need Project to come back and I'll be all set. My P7P has been great though!
I feel like pixel is 1 year behind the competitors in general.
Battery life,
Charging speed..
Camera too infact.. it is atleast 1 year behind samsung.
Moving to the 4nm node (4lpp or maybe the more established 4lpe) might be an improvement in efficiency.
Question remains if the Tensor G3 will move to Armv9 cores. This could see a good boost in performance but hopefully also in efficiency.
My Pixel 6 that I'm currently using does everything I want it to do and more, than the iphone 6 I switched from back in early 2022. My family wouldn't get me a newer iPhone as they didn't want to get locked in another extensive contract, shell out over $1k just for a phone that would be replaced by a newer better one the same year or next year, and our own issues with apple in the past costing us time or money.
I chose the pixel 6 as it was a breath of fresh air due to the fact that I got a new phone and new laptop for college for the same price as a single iphone. Also as I stated prior, they want to buy the phone out right... We want to own it... Not rent it, pay off on time, get locked in a contract, etc. Most new phones are gotten this way and we don't like it, as it's not for us.
Other than that Tensor has promise and it has done better than my friends phones that used snapdragon. Their phones were mostly new Samsung phones at the time when I got my P6 last year and it lasted way longer in battery life than theirs did and was pretty snappy compared to theirs. The tensor CPU isn't gonna win everything or be "the best" but it does what it should and does it well (at least for me). As long as they keep improving the chip and make it more efficient I have hope that it will all be worth it in future generations.
I’d like to see them improve efficiency and battery consumption. I got a pixel 7 pro after having an iPhone 13 Pro Max and the iPhone destroys the pixel in terms of battery life in my case.
Google Tensor is not as power efficient as i expected.
Improvement in battery life is needed
Exynos 2300 is no slouch, rumors has shown it's in the same ballpark as 8 gen 2, and possibly Tensor will now adopt a more potent GPU in the xclipse 930 rDNA 2.
Is personal data stored on the Google Tensor SoC?
Power consumption is an area the Pixel Tensor processor is a must.
Pixel 7 hangs up a lot for me, went back to the s22 plus, we'll see how another update or two does for the p7.
I think Google in general has to aim higher. I have had almost exclusively only Pixel phones since the first Pixel in 2016, but even though I think they are getting better with the Pixel 6 and now 7 I want people to see the Pixel phone and say they want one. So yes give it more power, make it available to more people, and give all the features you do to the US market to everyone else. I have probably past the scope of this video but I am a Pixel fan and really want Google to use their not inconsiderable resources to really compete with those phones at the top of everyone's favourite lists.
I totally love having VPN + 100GB of cloud storage for 20€ per year. Love that decided to include VPN in the small plan.
Using a pixel 7 and I can say it out confidently that pixel will challenge iPhone in 3 years. There's a massive jump from g1 to g2 in terms of optimization and artificial intelligence. There are some bugs here and there but still this is an amazing experience. Speaking about the performance, it's enough to handle both heavy games and day to day tasks. I've seen videos where people say there isn't a score jump between g1 and g2, if it's really that case then still I don't mind as g1 is also powerful enough to handle all modern day tasks. Gaming isn't my main priority but I do play Call of duty mobile occasionally and pixel 7 does it flawlessly even without heating much! My previous phone Mi 11 ultra with 888 used to fry my hands during gaming😂.
Google 7 - $450
No other comes close to price per performance cost and value
Given Power Save Mode on
Medium to heavy used daily leaves 20% to 30% left, given at average 7 to 9 hours of screen on time
The only "bug" issues is UI freezing or unresponsive every few weeks of heavy use
I have a Pixel 7 and it's fast for me. I just love the subtle animations and vibration. I don't need more power. Samsung could come out with Galaxy 8.1 UI and it will lag in comparison Pixel Software.
same for me never felt it's slow for daily tasks.
The biggest lie I have ever heard of. The S23 Ultra feels leaps and bounds ahead of Pixel 7, and never seeing any delays.
I think Samsung is fairing very well with other tech giants and making huge improvements with each tensor generation.
I am thinking on waiting a few years before making the decision to either get another pixel phone or jump back to the Galaxy ultra phones to see if Google can knock it out of the park in a couple years. I am currently using the Pixel 7 pro.
I hope they start designing their own cores based on ARM Arch rather than basing it on an Exynos design.
The Tensor processors would be enough for now if Google could manage the overheating in Pixels. The Pixel phones are pretty big in size but still they overheat under high usage. The pixel 4a was a perfect phone, much like the Nexus 5 was. After that, Pixel 7 looks good but not great. I am eager to use a Pixel but I'll wait until Google comes with a balanced chip. I don't need raw power but I need efficiency. I think overheating is a issue for everyone.
Currently I am using S20FE and it's running smoothly on the latest android version. Happy with it but it has gotten its last android update. So, hoping to see Google make a big upgrade in this year's Pixel or launch Pixel 7a at a good price.
It must depend on what you're doing. I've had the 7 pro for a couple months and only noticed it getting a little heated once when I was charging and gaming on it.
Other than that I use my phone all day for social media apps, streaming and playing with AI and have only had it crash out of the app a couple times and both of those times were on RUclips.
I don't use the camera much on any of my phones so perhaps the overheating is occurring while using the camera or something. I have heard others say that the Pixel gets hot though, I just haven't had that issue at all.
@@SaintKines I live in India and summer in here is really hot. So slight overheating also is a big no-no for me.
@@priyabratasaha3895 that makes sense. I live in the Pacific Northwest in the US so it's usually pretty cool here.
Yes Google will fall behind.
Honestly, it might be great if Google doesn't focus on just more powerful specs, but look at how to improve and push the experience you have on your phone without just pivoting to how many cores and how many GHz.
Just like Apple did in the past.
Wonder how good exynos 2300 is gonna be
Pixel 7 pro user here.
I guess people has a choice whether to play games on their pixels or not but everybody wants a non heating better battery life pixel for sure.
I'm planning to buy pixel 6a can anyone who is a long term user of 6a can guide me how it phone works I mean are there some heating stuttering or throttling problems in 6a .?
Maybe it's a tensor problem, but this battery isn't great on my P7Pro.
I wouldn't say that Google should switch back to Qualcomm, or a Snapdragon based Tensor. But I would say that Google hardware need a more powerful Tensor. Be it Exynos, Snapdragon, or their own custom chip (much better IMO).
I can't wait for g3 Samsung 3nm processor
I doubt it'll be 3nm. It's probably going to be 4
If it were tsmc, it would be promising, but it is Samsung, so it is low quality.
@@ergs7525 Samsung 4-3 nm isn't low quality it uses a more advanced technology than tsmc
@@harryvlogs7833 then why samsung node not efficient ,tcmc better thn samsung
Google needs to stop collaborating with Samsung and they will come up with a proper chip. It would be great to see a Pixel phone with a powerhouse like the 8gen 2
If your only argument for more power is playing games, then its a weak argument. What my P6 Pro does, it does very well. The language processing that allows for live translate over videos and audio alone makes me choose a Pixel phone over the others as i work with many people who dont speak the language i do very well. The latest galaxy or apple device cannot do that for me, despite their power differences
When it comes to longevity, people will buy a new phone when they want one or need one. I've seen people with very old phones who dont care about any of the fancy features or speed. All they want to do is watch videos on facebook, youtube, and check on their social media site. they'll take pictures and whatever but and if it looks good to them, its a bonus, even that is not a feature worth buying a phone for, for many people.
Can anyone confirm the sot of pixel 7 /7 pro
as i was planning to buy one
Samsung is about two years behind Qualcomm
But i don't think samsung is still able to produce chips that are as efficient as a 2 year old snapdragon.
Take the 865 ( 3+ year old) for example, i bet it is more efficient than the tensor 1 or 2!
Google please do it right. Focus on battery performance and overheating...
Google need to keep up with apple. I tried to do simple video editing and it struggle using pixel 6 pro. And I wish Google make their own video editing app like apple does
I am planning to buy a Pixel 8 / 8 Pro, but I wanna see before I buy what their new processor is capable of, especially performance wise. I don't need the strongest insane performance, but I say some scary videos Genshin stuttering on the 8 Pro like crazy. That would be pretty shameful to happen with a flagship phone in 2023, so I will wait for tests and then buy.
I use the pixel 7 pro. I have never experienced any lag or hiccups with it. I can see now that you don't need the most powerful chip for a good device.
We can put as much spin on tensor as we want. Truth is it's seriously underpowered and lacking in a lot of areas that will catch up with Google. Tensor 3 has to be at least 2 generations ahead of tensor 2 for it to even remotely compete.
I think Google badly needs to up its hardware ante exponentially. While the software experience is highly sophisticated (better than apple in my opinion) the hardware is just about ok.
the google AI features have always been cloud based . i think they should just use snapdragon . its a lot more powerful and efficient and im pretty sure google can make things like magic eraser work with snapdragon
But many Pixel AI features such as Live Translate work offline/on-device.
All Google AI features are on the device Since Tensor G1 on my Pixel 6. That means faster responses, and Privacy. No data leaves the device to get processed for AI stuff.
Not sure if its the tensor 2 or the software but my pixel 7 pro lags especially when i press the back button and it zooms out the app. I just swapped from the huawei p30 pro which was 4 years old and absolutley ramme storage wise and it was a lot less laggy that the pixel 7 pro
It's interesting that when I pick up my wife's oneplus 9 pro after using my pixel 7 the oneplus just feels nicer to use and a better experience.
And I know the oneplus 9 pro had a rough review.
Just saying.
They r only on the 7th pixel.. and have their own chip.. it's scary to say.. but they might be the iphone of Android soon and prolly see a bunch of Android manufacturers fall off..
Seriously, why do we need more power?
I never had any problems with any apps or games. And the overwhelming majority of people don't need more power.
Improve the battery life!
I literally don't know how the pixel 7 will be worse with something like even a 8 gen plus over the G2
It won't even be more expensive but will have a much better battery life and better performance
On-SOC ML
I like this change even though I have Google Fi and automatically get the VPN we have to remember. It's an ever-changing unsecure world! So Google giving everybody access to the VPN at a cheaper tier is totally a good move in my opinion! A VPN shouldn't be a pixel exclusive feature. It should be an Android feature! Especially considering all those VPNs. Especially with these RUclipsrs trying to push off these pretty bad VPNs and they cost way too much money Just to slow down my internet!
Then there is one less reason to choose a Pixel over another.
unless Tensor moves to the SD soc , it is useless !
What makes pixel exciting is the low price compared to Samsung or Apple, without much sacrifices and a few perks.
If they increase the price of pixel series it won't be much exciting to use. they tried to compete with ultras and promax in the past and failed miserably.
Let's be real, all I want is a premium NORMAL SIZED phone from Google, something like the Zenfone 9.
I hate how large Pixel devices have become lately. I am on the face about getting an 8, it's still way too big for my liking & unless the 7a or 8a is very compelling I may end up just waiting & hoping the 9 is smaller.
A faster processor would be amazing. I really dislike Pixel devices, actually no, I hate them. The ONLY reason I use a Pixel is because GrapheneOS runs on it. If I didn't care about privacy I would buy a Zenfone 9 or a Galaxy S23.
Sadly the Pixel 5 is reaching end of life & they still haven't made anything but large phones, it's such a shame.
Zenfone 9 is the SMALLEST SIZED, not NORMAL SIZED. People do so many things on smartphone all day, so most of them want a large screen. A powerful smartphone needs to be powered by a large battery, large lenses and large sensors. A smaller phone doesn't have enough internal space for them.
@@abcd-kz9vw Go to "phone sized compairson" the Zenfone 9 is NOT a small phone, its a normal phone size!
Its almost the EXACT same height as the iPhone 13, Galaxy S23, & larger then "large" flagships in the past like the Galaxy S7.
What the heck are you talking about calling that a small phone? The iPhone Mini is a small phone, the Zenfone 9 is just normal sized. I swear Pixel users are delusional about phone sizes.
@@WitchMedusa "Galaxy S7" and "The iPhone Mini" are discontinued. You don't have current generation phones smaller than Zenfone 9, making it the smallest sized phone.
Tensor g3 is made on Samsung 4-3nm process which is just as or more advanced than tsmc
You have a plug we don't know about....share the wealth bro
The manufacturing process is more important than the size of the semiconductors !
Tsmc is way superior to Samsung's manufacturing process. Take the difference between the 8gen 1 and plus gen 1, both are exactly the same, only difference being 8gen 1 was manufactured by samsung, and 8+ gen 1 manufactured by Tsmc!
That is what Samsung says and what Samsung Knights post on Twitter for their take out of Samsung's marketing budget. They made promises to Qualcomm for the SD8G1 and failed, so they were sacked. The AMD GPU collab was a joke as the chips got too hot. They are of course, talking up their 3nm/4nm to get clients as they have lost most. I expect that as Google has no choice now they went Exynos, they will stay, but I doubt the Tensor3 will be close to the A17 (3nm).
@@andyH_England I'll be surprised if the tensor 3 performs to the level of gen1
@@dhumaleajit I fear that as well. The SD8G2 is such a good chip, I can imagine using TSMC would have meant a beast of a Pixel 8Pro.
Google (Pixel) fans will claim that they do not need performance and optimisation is the thing. The reality and truths are, like Apple, have both and lead rather than make excuses.
The only good take is that Google knows the chip is years behind and has compensated buyers with better value pricing. The Pixel 7Pro is not a power-user phone but more for a casual user with disposable income. The Pixel 7 and 7a are better options as the chip is more competitive in less expensive phones.
FWIW it seems likely that the Pixel 8Pro may be Tensor 3 and that the Pixel 8a may be Tensor 2 due to price increases for the 4nm process.
Apple Inc. doesn't lead and doesn't make excuses, its fans make excuses.
They say they don't need large RAM like Android phones.
They were saying AOD was useless and wastes battery when only Android had it... until Apple Inc. introduced it.
They say they don't need fast charging and fast charging is bad for battery.
They say they like the lightning cable better and it's superior to USB-C even when lightning cable has far slower speed.
They were saying a large phone was useless and if you need a large screen, get an iPad, when Android had large phones... until Apple Inc. introduced a large iPhone.
They say whatever not offered by Apple Inc. is useless and they don't want it.
Switching back to Qualcom chips will do absolutely fuckall, Google will still manage to fuck up their phones
they fucked up their phones when hey used Qualcom before so nothing would change.
I hope Google never goes back to Qualcomm, Tensor provides better optimisation (hardware and software by the same company) and it also keeps costs down as it's in house. Qualcomm will mean much higher prices like the rise in the S23 costs. Raw power means nothing if the device isn't optimised
8 Gen 2 is still much better than Tensor G2.
@@GurdeepSingh-yz9oy in raw power but not optimisation.
@@Benobi- I'm not sure how not optimisation when phone battery with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 reportedly lasts much longer.
@@abcd-kz9vw yh that's done well apparently however that is the latest Qualcomm, this Tensor chip is last year's not this year's. But like I said, overall, with all the things pixel gives over other brands, I'll take pixel.
Google should use Snapdragon chips
nope, tensor is their silver lining and cannot be reversed
I'm definitely interested in getting a Pixel phone but it's gotta fit in my hand.
Battery Life! Please Google
I hope their engineers continue mainly focusing on efficiency with some more love towards power. Zero interest in anything related to AI modules.
The Exynos modem is largely to blame for battery drain.
@@marcochavanne don't know if it's the modem. I think it's just the production at the samsung foundry.
@@supaahflyy
Exynos itself is also not promising since it was developed by Samsung.
Just sold 6a.
80% issues I had were related to cpu. Like super high thermals, pathetic sustained performance, efficiency and what not..
Me too man!!! Same
I have the 8pro and I feel like Google is conning us on these phones. I am being scammed
What you talking about tensor g2 is great
Okay yeah the Tensor chip lacks in raw power when compared to others, but realistically, what does the average user do that requires more processing power than the Tensor chip can provide ? The average user doesn't need all the power in the Qualcomm and Apple chips to browse TikTok and other social media. In practice, it takes what, 30 seconds more, maybe 1 minute to process and convert a video ? Sure, it does. But how many people really do anything that requires that much processing power ? Maybe 2 out of 10, let's go with that. Well, on a phone with a Tensor chip they'll have to wait a little more for their videos to convert. And ? Not really a big issue, is it ?
On the other hand, you get better machine learning and great image processing as well as outstanding voice to text recognition, improved assistant, etc.
This is my hill, and I would die on it. The fact that the Tensor chip isn't as powerful as the main two competitors isn't an issue at all, even more so taking into account what it does better than said competitors.
The only thing the Tensor needs to get better at is efficiency.
I feel it's far more appropriate to focus on how Apple has such an incredible, powerful chipset yet its own OS won't allow for multitasking.
Yeah, your video encoding will be faster than on my Pixel 7 Pro, but let's see you tab away from it and do something else while the video processes in the background.
Agree to you but you forget the price difference between those phones, and IDK if iPhones really doesn't allow the user in Multitasking, but maybe beacause their phones isn't optimize into it
What Pixel users mainly complain about is the modem. Poor signals, unstable connectivity and call dropping. Reportedly Samsung modem. Plus overheating.
BARD aka LAMDA for Pixel's...... 🙂
The tensor chip isn't about performance, it's about consistency.
Why would I want a chip that will start to get hot enough to cook meat?
The phones, being underpowered, are packet with crazy features only they have.
They're doing excellent work.
The search por perfection most of the times gets in the way of greatness, and the Pixels are great.
Tensors talk < other stuff
or Google can make AI make the fastest chip 🤨
Mediocre phones and processors. When you have to charge your phone twice per day (ex Pixel 6 , Pixel 7 owner) they got me twice. I was reading reviews on how P7 is better but it's all the same 💩. Stay away from these phones.
"magic erase" is a stupid gimmick and it doesn't work as advertised at all
the AI sucks and you can tell the photos were edited and they look like shit and are totally distorted in the sections were deletions were made.
Tensor is worst Cpu i have ever seen G1 G2 Throttle Issues
