- The company's custom chip for new Pixel 6 series is called Google Tensor.
Google has confirmed the design for both the Pixel 6 and the larger phone, now also confirmed to be named the “Pixel 6 Pro.”
The names, design, expected launch date, and many of the specs of its upcoming Pixel 6 series. the company has shared a plethora of details about its new phones weeks ahead of their launch.
Google Tensor
Google is calling the new SoC “Tensor.” As expected, AI and machine learning (ML) are at the core of Tensor. Google specifically calls attention to its ability to provide a “transformed experience for the camera, speech recognition, and many other Pixel 6 features.” the processor falling below the Snapdragon 888 in terms of raw performance, these AI and ML enhancements are what could render that gap meaningless when it comes to real-world performance. This is, in some ways, similar to what we have seen from Apple with the M1 processor.
Cameras
it confirmed that the Pixel 6 Pro will get a new 4x optical telephoto zoom, while the Pixel 6 will stick to a wide-angle and ultra-wide camera. Both phones will use identical camera sensors with the exception of the telephoto lens on the Pro model.
Android 12
Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will debut with Android 12 and Google’s new Material You design language. Google claims it will be best on Pixel 6.
