The Google Pixel 9 series packs the new Tensor G4 chipset, but “new” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Compared to the Tensor G3 that powers the Pixel 8, the updated silicon has a revised Arm core arrangement with higher clocks, a quicker GPU, and a new modem. However, compared to the big generational leaps on other manufacturers’ chipsets, the new Tensor is a minor upgrade over the Tensor G3.
For the Pixel 9 series, which starts $100 higher than the outgoing Pixel 8 line, the lack of big upgrades on the Tensor G4 will be a downer for many.
