Google Pixel 10, next year’s flagship from Google, has surfaced in benchmarks revealing Tensor G5 SoC with the codename ‘Google Frankel’ revealing the Geekbench scores that are not impressive compared to Tensor G4.
CPU
This reveals 1 x Cortex X4 Prime Core clocked at 3.4GHz, 5 x Cortex-A725 performance cores clocked at 2.86GHz and 2 x power efficient cores clocked at 2.44 GHz. It also reveals 12GB of RAM, which will likely be for Pixel 10, and the Pro models should get 16GB of RAM.
It also reveals Android 15, but the final unit should run Android 16 out of the box, since Google has confirmed that it will release Android 16 in Q2 2025, and the Pixel 10 series is expected to release only in Q3 2025.
The 1323 single-core score and 4004 multi-core scores that are less than the Tensor G4, but these might not be final results since this could be early prototype.
GPU
It also reveals PowerVR two-core IMG DXT-48-1536 clocked at 1.1GHz. Even though some rumours say that this will be powerful compared to Adreno 830 GPU in the Snapdragon 8 Elite, according to Android Authority, the GPU performance will still lag two years behind the leaders.
However, this is said to improve Ray-tracing, use a different architecture for GPU-bound tasks, and get GPU virtualization, which is not found in current Tensor chips.
Earlier rumours revealed that the Tensor G5 will use TSMC’s 3nm process tech, marking Google’s first chip made without Samsung.
