Google introduced the Tensor series of chips with the Pixel 6 series in 2021. It was meant to usher in a range of chips specially tailored by Google to keep up with its class-leading AI-based software features. Just three Tensor chips in, and many of Google’s new AI features need to be off-loaded to the cloud for processing.
They’re on the pixel 8
They where on Nexus for a while before that too. Now if we could get one that doesn’t constantly scan virtually all activities for ‘an improved user experience and personalization of the web’ out of the box that’d be a pretty awesome next step.

The earlier phones just used off the shelf Snapdragons. It’s only the 6 and up that use the Tensor chip.
Oh yeah, I get that - I was just pointing out they don’t kill all of their projects after two years.
