Google is featuring their custom-built chip specifically for Pixel phones, including the upcoming Google Pixel 6 & Pixel 6 Pro

The first Pixel phone was launched on 2016 and since then, Google perfected by introducing features based on Artificial Intelligence like their amazing computation photography. If you read our Pixel 5 review, you can see the great photos taken by Google Pixel 5, even without having an expensive four-quad camera system.

It’s made possible by Google’s computational photography but apparently still being limited by the chip. So, Google has decided to make their own System on a Chip (SoC) which is called Google Tensor and it will be powering the next generation of Pixel phones, including the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro.

With Google Tensor, Google can run their most powerful AI and ML models directly on the phone itself. According to Google, you will see a transformed experience for the camera and speech recognition (Voice commands Translation Captioning & Dictation), among other things.

Tensor enables us to make the Google phones we’ve always envisioned —  phones that keep getting better, while tapping the most powerful parts of Google, all in a highly personalized experience. And with Tensor’s new security core and Titan M2, Pixel 6 will have the most layers of hardware security in any phone.” – Rick Osterloh, Google Devices & Services Senior Vice President.

Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be running Android 12 Operating System and new design, plus improved camera sensors and lenses. The Pixel 6 Pro will have a light polished aluminium frame and the Pixel 6 will be coated with matte’s aluminium finish.
