This isn't journalism. This is propagating BS. One person runs a synthetic burner for minutes on end (which never happens in real world usage, 100%, all-core, non-stop), a FREAKISHLY strong SoC surrender 50% of it's compute (which users likely won't ever encounter) and hordes of outlets including NBC regurgitate the content, but here there's a Samsung G24 ad right after the content.

Congratulations NBC, you've hit rock bottom.

(If someone were to have gone outside and in 38°C ambient try to shoot a 15 minute video and the encoder would start skipping frames, okay. That's a real world workload. Synthetic benchmarks are BS, especially without comparison. At least mention current-gen competition alongside, when those buckle and by how much.)

G4 is based on latest Exynos 2400, minus two A720 cores, plus custom NPU/TPU.
Google is already notorious at making Exynos chips much much worse.

Vice versa.

How is Samsung even related if their own Exy2400 is quite okay.

Who do you think Google uses for the design of the Pixel Tensor SoC. It's an Exynos 2100 based design, old and slow and power hungry.

On top of being slower than the more performant chips, it also overheats and throttles more even with the new vapor chamber and is less power efficient (most of which of course go together). It's simply worse at most everything, and some pitch the "but it has custom Google AI features" which might be somewhat true but it doesn't even seem top of pack in NPU tests.

�It's just not a great chip for a flagship. Hopefully the switch away from Samsung fabbing it next time helps, but this is the fourth gen in a row with a very underwhelming Tensor for now.

TBH, I am not usually caring for this on my own device, previous Pixels were horrendous as well, but this time, I am taking it as one of the points why I could not care less for upgrading my Pixel 8 Pro.
I am waiting till Pixel 10, this generation does not bring anything worthwhile.

The Google Tensor G4 in the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL can lose as much as 50% of its maximum performance due to thermal throttling. This thermal throttling is present despite Google's claims of improved thermal design via a vapour chamber cooling solution.
