Pixel 8 Pro to Feature New Tensor G3 Chip, According to Leak

We've already seen a ton of leaks for Google's upcoming Pixel 8 series, but here's another. The Device Info HW and AIDA64 applications, which provide extensive specifications on the new Tensor G3 processor, are operating on the Pixel 8 Pro in the photographs given by M. Brandon Lee of This is Tech Today.

The 9-core CPU of the Tensor G3 runs at 2.91 GHz on the Cortex-X3 prime core, 2.37 GHz on the 4 Cortex-A715 cores, and 1.7 GHz on the 4 Cortex-A510 cores. The 12GB RAM and Mali-G715 GPU are the other standout features. Tensor G3 was produced using Samsung's 4nm manufacturing technology and has the FO-WLP packaging method, which should lead to less heat production and greater power efficiency when compared to Tensor G2.

The most recent leak verifies a Goodix optical fingerprint scanner built into the display panel in addition to the chipset information. A 6.7-inch LTPO OLED panel with QHD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 1-120Hz is anticipated for the Pixel 8 Pro's debut. The rear will include a 50MP primary camera, a 48MP telephoto with a 5x optical zoom, a new 48MP ultrawide sensor, and three more cameras.

The smartphone will come in Obsidian, Sky Blue, and Porcelain hues and Android 14 should handle the software side. The starting price for the Pixel 8 Pro is anticipated to be $899 in the US and £999 in the UK.
