The Pixel 8 Pro's Tensor G3 averaged an average of 33.5 FPS in Genshin Impact at High Settings. The phone also heats up a lot, with its surface temperature hovering at around 42 degrees Celcius. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Google-Tensor-G3-Pixel-8-Pro-fails-to-outperform-its-predecessor-in-Genshin-Impact.759422.0.html
He is talking about the table from Golden Reviewer but completely ignoring Linus Tech Tips bar graph initially.
It clearly shows G3's advantages over G2 and the average fps is 56 tbh. Also 42 degree surface temperature is kind of on low side so, why making a fuss about it, plenty android phones reach 45+ degrees ?
Highlighting only the bad things,,, NICE.
I tested my personal 8 pro and got much much higher results than golden reviewer. He just hates Google that's all, and what ever he did has to be fake because I'm getting well over 50fps in genshin using an on screen fps counter. And my geek bench is faster than sd8gen1+ and close to 8gen2.
Don't buy a handset designed for AI for gaming. Got it.
Both 3DMark and Geekbench run and install fine from the Play store. Not sure what he's going on about.
Just say tested Genshin Impact is ambiguous because not all regions stress the system equally. Sumeru city stress more than previous regions, and Fontaine under water stress even more. Please, all reviewers, test these two regions and state it in the review if you ever wanna include Genshin.
The same applies to HSR. Test Xianzhou Luofu. Don't just wander around in the space station. That's not enough.
Look to me that this reviewer got a defective unite. Tested it as well and its never go under 40 fps in the worst place of the game and usually over 50fps.
I have the pixel 6A but I play A different game that requires a good phone to play which is Warzone Mobile. Still not released in the US but It's not hard to figure out. anyways. My 6A has 6gb RAM Octacore processor and The First tensor chip I believe. The Mali G78?
As the devs optimize the game every update more and more the 6A is performing great even while Recording video.
This is interesting considering I wanted to upgrade my phone.
Hell even the pixel 4A Ran apex Legends mobile Smooth as butter
But I have never played genshin impact so idk
