ZoomPhoto 1 of 1Google Tensor G6
Google's second TSMC-built Tensor chip keeps the 3nm process but swaps in new Arm C1 CPU cores and a 50%-faster TPU for on-device Gemini Nano, while the GPU regresses to an older PowerVR design and CPU/GPU benchmarks still trail 2026 flagship rivals in the Pixel 11 series.
Pros
- Sizeable CPU uplift over Tensor G5 from new Arm C1-Ultra and C1-Pro cores
- New TPU delivers 50% more compute, cutting on-device Gemini Nano latency up to 3.5x
- Upgraded CPU design brings up to 30% better power efficiency than Tensor G5
- Retains the proven TSMC 3nm process used by Tensor G5
Cons
- GPU steps back to an older Imagination PowerVR Series C design with no ray-tracing support
- CPU and GPU benchmarks still trail 2026 flagship Snapdragon, Exynos and Dimensity chips by a wide margin
- GPU performance is barely improved over the Tensor G5 despite the new core
