Android Authority notes that the Tensor G3 demanding tasks will be handled by a cluster of four Cortex A715 cores with clock speed of 2.45 GHz. This is a huge improvement over the two Cortex-A78 core deployed by the Tensor G2, both in terms of raw firepower — which is now double in magnitude — and the higher clock frequency.
The number of efficiency cores is the same at four, but the older Cortex-A55 cores have been swapped in favor of the new Cortex-A510 cores. Arm’s new low-end cores also get a speed boost, going up from the Cortex-A55’s peak frequency of 1.8GHz to 2.15GHz on the Cortex-A510 inside the Tensor G3 package. Google is also bumping things around in the graphics department.
The upcoming Tensor silicon employs the Mali-G715 graphics engine, which has 10 GPU cores ticking at a higher 890Mhz frequency. Support for broader video encoding and decoding capabilities (8K video at 30fps and 4K video at 60fps) will also arrive on the Pixel 8 series phones courtesy of the Tensor G3 SoC.
Google’s Tensor chips, despite delivering a smooth performance on its Pixel phones, have remained laggards when compared to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips and Apple’s own A-series silicon for iPhones. It would be interesting to see whether the Tensor G3 would finally allow the Pixel 8 series phones to catch up with the big hitters from Samsung and Apple this year.
