Google Tensor G6 is a mobile system-on-chip designed by Google for use in Pixel smartphones.
… Mobile New Tensor G6 leak has good and bad news for Pixel 11 series The good news is that we could see a significant CPU upgrade. By • May 4, 2026 • • • Add AndroidAuthority on Google TL;DR A leaker has revealed a ton of Tensor G6 specs, giving us an idea of what to expect from the Pixel 11 series. …
… For the CPU, the Tensor G6 may move to Arm’s new C1-Ultra and C1-Pro cores. Google’s Pixel 11 phones are still a few months away, but we’ve been anticipating this hardware for basically years at this point — and that includes the latest Tensor G6 SoC we’re expecting to power the lineup. …
… Is the Tensor G6 worth waiting for? Robert Triggs / Android Authority Google’s custom silicon project hasn’t ever really been about chasing the benchmark leaderboards, and the Tensor G6 isn’t going to suddenly change the status quo. We might have to wait for the Tensor G7 or longer for that. …
… But don’t hold your breath for this, as Google tends to emphasize AI capabilities over raw performance. In any event, there’s no shortage of Tensor G6 leaks . …
… The Pro models can be just that, with the new Tensor G6 and a higher price point if Google has to. Google has a similar path with the Pixel 11. …
… Because Google doesn’t design GPUs in-house, it could close the gap with many of its rivals in just a generation or two. However, that doesn’t look to be on the cards with next year’s Tensor G6 , and it would require a significant change in priorities both conceptually and in terms of silicon area . …
… It’s also safe to assume that the phone will be powered by Google’s upcoming Tensor G6 chipset, which will presumably be the first Tensor chip manufactured using TSMC’s powerful and expensive 2nm design. …
… The Pixel 11 series is also confirmed to pack a Tensor G6 chip, which has previously leaked as Google’s first 2nm chip . …
… There’s mention of the Tensor G6 almost as an inevitability, and speculation about possibly abandoning 16GB of RAM in a money-saving move to 12GB, but that does not appear to be actually backed up by anything just yet. …
