Quote from: Tamas on July 11, 2025, 05:57:47Why these exynos modems again?! CPU performance I don't care that much as long as it serves the standard and productivity apps. But the modem made my life difficult in pixel 7 for half a year. Until I switched to another phone :( terrible network performance, no network or some 10s to max 100 kb/sec in so many places places where others next to me with same carrier were having video calls just fine. Sent back 3 times and lost faith.
Would it really cost THAT much more to get the right hardware?! Pixels are not cheap for this hardware at all.
Even if you use an Exynos modem/clearly use an Exynos 5400 modem (5G network, not a 4G network), one more thing, making a 5G network modem is not an easy matter, even the Xiaomi Xring 01 is still using MediaTek's 5G modem/even Apple makes their own 5G modem, it still takes years to get away from Qualcomm's 5G modem. 5G networks in the world are still not 100% evenly distributed

I'm wondering if Google will ever skip a year ahead and get caught up with current generation CPUs.


Tell me why specifically this is so important to you like in real world use have you actually noticed a difference? The two phones that I have with me at all times are my s24 ultra and my Google pixel 9 Pro XL it's easy to argue that the Snapdragon 8 gen 3 for Galaxy is at least 30% faster than the tensor G4 however in real World experience which is what matters my pixel often feels significantly more fluid than my s24 ultra and my Samsung is like I said potentially 30% faster which is why every reviewer worth his salt stresses the real world use case because in most cases you cannot tell the difference and I understand all the GPU isn't as powerful as what's in any of the other phones and sometimes it's not even as powerful as some of these mid-range gaming phones I play call of duty mobile religiously my pixel 9 Pro XL has no problem pushing 120 frames per second I feel like a lot of you went and looked at the spec sheets so are the numbers written down on paper so that the numbers weren't as high as everything else and y'all just got mad wait to use it. In a lot of cases the long-term performance was better on the pixels than they were even on the Samsungs after the same amount of time under the same load the pixel was more consistent than the s24 or the s25 which had heavy fluctuations before it finally settled at a much lower point. I'm not even really here to bash anybody I'm just saying look at the whole picture not just the pieces because it's the accumulation of everything together that gives you your products not numbers on a piece of paper

I don't understand what people are complaining about the tensor G3 set somewhere between the Snapdragon 8 gen 1 and Gen 2 processor and people complained now the performance is at what my s24 ultra is with the Snapdragon 8 gen 3 so Google is actually improving performance faster than SnapDragon did. My s24 ultra is still super fast phone the OnePlus 13r is a super fast phone the OnePlus 12 is a super fast phone and as fast as those phones are in 90% of the time my pixel 9 Pro XL feels more fluid than they do. I don't know what you're expecting Google hasn't needed the same raw power that every other manufacturer has needed because they're focus is slightly different and even with that slightly less powerful CPU I have experienced no hiccups no issues no nothing so the fact that this new tensor G5 is going to be on par with the Snapdragon 8 gen 3 in potentially after software updates performing better I don't understand what there is to complain about

the performance is close to a snapdragon 8 gen 3 I am waiting for the gpu benchmarks

Tensor is getting worse every release.

To be fair there was a time, mainly up until 2018 where top end flagships were a must to avoid laggy, awkward responsiveness, and generally poor performance, and would need upgrading every other year.
Nowadays entry level phones are sufficient, high-mid tier like this run perfectly and continue to do so for 3-4 years.
I was guilty of always chasing performance and had annual upgrades until ~2019 but since the pixel 6 pro I only upgraded due to a broken screen, I'll keep my 8 pro until at least next year as it's as I honestly don't think I'd feel a difference upgrading to the 10, heck upgrading from the 6 was barely noticeable uplift.

Can soc Google Tensor G5 compete Exynos 2500 (3GAA generation 2) cpu arm cortex X925 (clocked 3.3 ghz) think of a smartphone cooling system to get antutu 3 million is difficult, if soc can be tamed.

How is this close to a dimensity 9300? The dimensity 9300 is twice as fast.

100% this, well-said. Yet many people struggle with realising that, for some reason.

The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold has made its Geekbench debut with a shiny new Tensor G5 SoC. It features last-gen Arm Cortex CPU cores and a new PowerVR GPU from Imagination Technologies.
