As you may know, Google's first proprietary chipset, called Google Tensor, which debuted in the Pixel 6 series, was manufactured by Samsung - specifically, with a 5nm process. Now it looks like the Korean tech giant will also be producing a successor to this chip that will power a series of Pixel 7.

According to the South Korean website DDaily, cited by the SamMobile server, Samsung, more precisely its foundry division Samsung Foundry, is already producing the new generation Tensor chipset, using the 4nm process. During production, the division uses the PLP (panel-level packaging) technique, which in part of the process uses square panels instead of round wafers, which results in a reduction in production costs and the amount of waste.

Not much is known about the next generation of Tensor at the moment (we don't even know its official name, it's unofficially referred to as Tensor 2), but it can be expected to use the latest ARM processor cores and the latest ARM graphics chip. It could have two Cortex-X2 cores, two Cortex-A710 cores and four Cortex-A510 cores and a Mali-G710 graphics chip, used in the Dimensity 9000 chipset.
