According to a recent report from China, Google's Tensor G6 chipset, set to debut in the Pixel 11 series, will be the first smartphone chip manufactured using TSMC’s groundbreaking 2nm process. This innovation positions it ahead of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, MediaTek's Dimensity 9600, and Apple's A20 Pro.
This development is timely, given that the aforementioned SoCs are expected to appear in devices announced in September, while Google has already confirmed the unveiling of the Pixel 11 family on August 12.
An FCC filing for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold has confirmed earlier rumors that Google will discontinue the use of Samsung's Exynos Modem family in favor of MediaTek’s M90 modem. This transition will enable 5G speeds of up to 12Gbps, satellite connectivity, and support for dual active 5G SIMs.
This change is anticipated to enhance the connectivity and reliability of the Pixel 11 devices, particularly compared to their predecessors that utilized Samsung modems.
