Everything is nice and great until we mention the Tensor.
The "in-house" Tensor which meant Google would finally foolow in Apple's footsteps and deliver better optimization for their devices, turned out to be mediocre at best, offering only midrange level performance and battery life.
The problem from the beginning has been the use Samsung's node. The Tensor was in the end another Exynos failure which was always inferior in any aspect to the other chipsets in the same league.
Had they chosen to use TSMC from the beginning, Tensor would've reached maturity at a different pace. I have no doubt it would've been better but it's Google we're talking about here and Google likes to screw up.
