As we have mentioned earlier, the Pixel 10 Tensor will be powered by the G5 application processor (AP). This will be the first tensor that is made from the ground by Google. The previous tensor chips used the Samsung Acinos AP as the Foundation, while Google added some custom parts of the chip set. This change will allow Google to design special pixel features in a chapte. Tancer G5 is also the first Tensor SOC made by the world’s largest foundry, TSMC. The last four tanters were built by APS Samsung Foundry. Considering the struggle that the Samsung Foundry gets its production at 3NM, it is not surprising that the TSMC has ended with a job. But a tipter posted a photo on “X” showing what he says is a prototype of Tancer G5AP. Tapster, @Jokanlosario, wrote, “I received a picture of a Pixel 10 The prototype chip, and it has been marked by the SEC (Samsung). It certainly looks like, for the early version of the least Pixel 10They were considering developing tanker G5 in the Samsung Foundry. “@Jocalosario may have thought that the SEC mark on the chip stands for the Samsung Electronics Company. However, when Samsung used a summary on press releases and news articles, it would not use Samsung to identify it.

On the other hand, there is some indication that the Samsung Foundry felt that it would provide the construction of Tancer G5. As we told you last month, the Korean Financial Newsletter “The Bell” has said that the Samsung Foundry is investigating why it lost the construction business of Tancer G5. Although this does not prove that the Samsung Foundry has made a Tensor G5 prototype, it shows that Samsung may have been surprised by the decision to build the TSMC’s AP even though most of the analysts were not analysts.
As a result of difficulties in production of the Samsung Foundry, the Samsung Unit’s Market Share Q11 has dropped from 8.1 percent to 7.7 percent during the fourth quarter of last year. Meanwhile, the share of the TSMC has increased from 67.1 % to 67.6 % respectively, respectively.
The most important project on which the Samsung Foundry is working is 2nm Acinos 2600 AP, which is expected to provide electricity to the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+ Most markets outside the United States, Canada and China. If Samsung uses Acinos 2600 AP in these models, in most markets around the world, Galaxy S26 Semi’s homegone AP model will be equipped with a chip prepared using 2NM process node. One thing that is clear is that the tanker will not be manufactured by the G5AP Samsung Foundry and will be manufactured by TSMC. Pixel 10 The rumors of the series were unveiled on August 20 and were released on August 28.
