Google Tensor G2

Released Oct 13, 2022Mobile Chipset

A gentle iteration that kept the Pixel 7 on the dual-X1 layout while a faster TPU unlocked Photo Unblur and clearer calls. Efficiency and ML features, not benchmarks, remained the point — and the weakness against same-year rivals.

Pros

  • Upgraded TPU unlocked Photo Unblur
  • Well-tuned real-world Pixel 7 performance
  • Improved ISP and Super Res Zoom
  • Kept Pixel prices below rival flagships

Cons

  • Dual-X1 layout was already dated
  • Mali-G710 delivers midfield gaming
  • Modest CPU gains over the original Tensor
