How strong is the Tensor chipset? Benchmarks evoke mixed impressions
In the Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro phones, it has shown itself on the market, among other things a new chipset called Tensor. From the beginning, this tailor-made eight-core set boasts mainly top security, however, even in terms of performance, it should be able to compete with the strongest rivals. How do these aspects assess the first measurements made through benchmark tools? The results are somewhat embarrassing.

In terms of overall performance, the Tensor has so far been shown to be weaker than the Snapdragon 888 and even so less powerful than the three-year-old Apple A12 Bionic. Compared to the latter, the score is 1012 vs. 1117 and 2760 vs. 2932 for single-core and multi-core workloads from measurement at Geekbench 5. It should be noted that these values do not indicate how the mobile phone is suitable for “normal use”. For example, the test does not take into account warm-up or tuning to the system.
Google Tensor Soc GPU performance is the best of any Android soc so far.
Now only question left is efficiency and sustained performance.

In another area, Tensor scored. It’s about GPU benchmark or graphics performance. There, the new Google chipset managed to beat all its Android competitors, and the closest to it is the result of the Huawei Mate 40 Pro.
How do you think the Tensor will stand up in the end?
