Maybe you are planning to make your subsequent Pixel buy later this 12 months once you purchase the Pixel 8 or Pixel 8 Professional. Anticipated to be launched subsequent October, each gadgets shall be powered by the Google Tensor 3 which is anticipated to be a modified Exynos 2300 SoC (despite the fact that Google did not use this chipset for its Galaxy S23 flagship line). However the phrase on the road is that Samsung is designing a robust new Exynos chip for use to energy the Galaxy S24 sequence in sure markets. And this information would possibly influence whether or not you purchase a Pixel 8 or look forward to the Pixel 9.
Samsung has its personal causes for powering most Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Extremely items with a robust Exynos 2400 chipset.
As we defined the opposite day, it might save Samsung from having to write down some large checks to Qualcomm for its Snapdragon chips. The cash Samsung saves is anticipated for use to extend the bottom storage on the Galaxy S24 mannequin to 256GB and hike the quantity of RAM used on the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ to 12GB and 16GB on the Galaxy S24 Extremely.
The ramifications of a robust Exynos 2400 SoC transcend Samsung and the Galaxy S24 sequence
The ramifications of a robust Exynos 2400 SoC prolong past Samsung and into the world of Pixel handsets. As we famous, the Google Tensor chip was based mostly on a modified Exynos 2200, and the first-gen Tensor chip, discovered on this author’s Pixel 6 Professional, is predicated on the Exynos 2100 chipset. So it might solely stand to cause that the Google Tensor 4 shall be based mostly on the Exynos 2400 SoC. And the Tensor 4 ought to debut contained in the Pixel 9 which needs to be launched throughout 2024’s fourth quarter.
The Google Tensor 2, based mostly on the Exynos 2200, powers the Pixel 7 line
In accordance with a tipster on Twitter with the identify
Revengus, the Exynos 2400 may have a 10-core CPU based mostly on Arm’s V9 structure. A rumor again in February known as for the Exynos 2400 SoC to function a high-performance Cortex-X4 core, two Cortex-A720 efficiency cores operating at a better clock velocity, three Cortex-A720 efficiency cores operating at a decrease clock velocity, and 4 Cortex-A520 effectivity cores. Now assuming that the Google Tensor 4 SoC shall be based mostly on the Exynos 2400 chipset, we may see a really highly effective processor operating the Pixel 9 subsequent 12 months
The Exynos 2300 that the Tensor 3 is predicated on will reportedly function a 1+4+4 configuration. That is rumored to encompass a Cortex-X3 high-performance core clocked at 3.09GHz, 4 Arm Cortex-A715 efficiency cores operating at 2.65GHz, and 4 ARM Cortex-A510 effectivity cores with a clock velocity of two.10GHz. The Tensor 3, to reiterate, shall be powering the Pixel 8 line.
So if you’re like the common Joe and may’t afford to purchase a brand new cellphone yearly, you simply would possibly need to preserve your powder dry and look forward to subsequent 12 months’s Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Professional. After all, this might require that you just not get caught up within the unveiling of the Pixel 8 sequence, and you will be placing your belief in what’s now simply rumors and hypothesis in regards to the Exynos 2400 chipset. And if
Google publicizes some loopy new function for the Pixel 8 line that may’t be provided to older gadgets, your will to attend shall be sorely examined.
The Pixel 9 would possibly function an improved optical zoom and Tremendous Res Zoom. On the Pixel 6 Professional, optical zoom is 4x and the hybrid Tremendous Res Zoom is 20x. On the Pixel 7 Professional, optical zoom can vary as much as 5x with Tremendous Res Zoom at 30x. The Pixel 8 Professional ought to enhance on these numbers, and the Pixel 9 Professional ought to do even higher.
Do you have to look forward to the Pixel 9? That is when I will exchange my Pixel 6 Professional
The Pixel 8 sequence is supposedly going to be geared up with an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor and the Pixel 9 may have the second technology of this biometric safety function. And we would hope that Pixel 9 battery life shall be improved over no matter Google can squeeze out of the battery for the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Professional.
So what is that this author going to do with my Pixel 6 Professional? As a lot as I might actually wish to have Face Unlock on my Pixel, the 6 Professional remains to be doing what I ask it to do and Google has given the Pixel 6 sequence the improved Evening Sight that debuted on the Pixel 7 line, the improved Direct My Name that exhibits cellphone timber upfront (additionally initially discovered on the Pixel 7 sequence), and the Pixel 6 Professional show might be modified to a decrease 1080p FHD+ decision to avoid wasting battery life (Settings > Show > Display screen decision). That additionally debuted on the Pixel 7 line.
Picture Unblur and Clear Calling are the one Pixel 7 AI tips I might wish to see on my Pixel 6 Professional. Proper now, the latter mannequin has Face Unblur which can repair blurry faces and the Pixel 8 is rumored to function Video Unblur. However yeah, I can see myself holding on till subsequent 12 months and ready for the Pixel 9. You?
