Google teases the Pixel 6 series with its custom Google Tensor chip

It’s no surprise that Google is preparing to launch the Pixel 6 series later this year, and in now typical Google fashion, the company has shared a plethora of details about its new phones weeks ahead of their launch. Google today confirmed the names, design, expected launch date, and many of the specs of its upcoming Pixel 6 series. Here’s a summary of everything they teased.

Meet the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro

Thanks to leaks, we knew that Google was working on two phones in its 2021 Pixel lineup. What we didn’t have confirmation on was the name. Many assumed the larger and more premium model would be called the Pixel 6 “Pro” rather than the Pixel 6 “XL”, and while some leaks pointed towards the latter being the name, Google today confirmed that they’re going with “Pro” to signify the ultra-premium model.

Google Silicon 101 (GS101) is officially “Google Tensor”

With this year’s Pixel phones, Google has been rumored to ditch Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips for the company’s in-house chips co-designed by Samsung. Those chips were reportedly code-named “whitechapel” and numerous references to the new custom chip appeared online in the form of “GS101”, where “GS” likely refers to “Google Silicon” and “101” indicating the first chip in the Google Silicon lineup. Google today confirmed that its new custom chip will be marketed as “Google Tensor.”
