Title: Tensor G5 exhibits middling performance alongside Pixel 10 Pro Fold on Geekbench
Post by: Redaktion on July 10, 2025, 03:42:27
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.

Don't forget it is a phone CPU not a gaming desktop

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

The CPU specifically was supposed to be released last year but they missed their production deadline.

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

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

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.

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.

Why 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.

Tensor is getting worse every release.

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