Google has confirmed that the Pixel 11 series will use the Tensor G6 chip, built on TSMC’s N3P process, a refined 3nm node. This puts an end to earlier rumors suggesting the chip would be made on TSMC’s 2nm process. The confirmation comes after weeks of speculation and analysis from tech outlets.
The Pixel 11 series was officially unveiled at Google’s Made by Google event. Alongside the hardware announcement, Google also shared details about the availability of spare parts for the new smartphones, promising seven years of support. This move is seen as a positive step for long-term user satisfaction and device longevity.
While the Pixel 11 launch received mixed reactions, with some critics calling the event a disappointment compared to anticipated content, the confirmation of the Tensor G6’s specifications has eased concerns among tech enthusiasts. The N3P process, while not the latest 2nm node, still represents a significant advancement in chip manufacturing.
Google also introduced new features on the Pixel Watch 5, including a health-focused tool designed to detect breathing emergencies. This highlights the company’s ongoing efforts to integrate AI-driven health features into its ecosystem.
