The Pixel 11’s Tensor G6 sounds promising — until you compare it to rival flagship chips

The latest Tensor G6 leak is good and bad news for the Pixel 11, adding more weight to what we already expected from Google’s next-gen chip destined for this year’s Pixel 11 series.

On the one hand, it looks like Pixel 11 customers are set to benefit from a significant leap in CPU performance. The chip is expected to feature a single Arm C1-Ultra core at 4.11GHz, alongside four C1-Pro cores at 3.38GHz and two C1-Pro cores at 2.65GHz. Google is completely skipping the Arm Cortex X925 era, jumping straight to the same CPU cohort as the powerhouse MediaTek Dimensity 9500.
