First of all, this is just my personal opinion. But all this Tensor hate really sucks. Just because the Tensor G4 can't quite keep up with the latest Snapdragon or Apple chip in benchmarks doesn't mean it's weak or a bad SoC. In fact, the Tensor G4 also offers flagship power and performance, and I'm pretty sure it won't have any problems with the 8-year update guarantee. In everyday use, Pixel phones with Tensor SoC run at least as smoothly as an iPhone or a flagship phone with a Snapdragon SoC. You will only notice a difference in specific use cases, for example when rendering a video. But is it really a big deal if your video does take a few seconds longer to render? In my opinion, Google is on the right track with its Tensor SoCs and much of the hate is unfounded. As I said, this is just my personal opinion. Thanks for reading - guess I'll take my down votes now - a happy Pixel 9 user.
