Everything you could possibly want to know about Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 family has already been leaked ahead of its August 20 unveiling, so what’s next? Benchmarks, apparently. Today’s leak purports to show an unreleased Pixel 10 Pro XL’s AnTuTu result next to its predecessor‘s.
If this is real, it looks like the Pixel 10 Pro XL‘s Tensor G5 SoC will come with a 16% better score overall, with a massively improved CPU score – by about 73%.
On the flip side, the GPU score has unfortunately gone down, representing only 88% of the score that the Pixel 9 Pro XL has on screen above. There’s also a big improvement in the memory score, and the UX score is about the same, if a tad lower in the newer device.
So it’s a mixed bag. There are definitely some big improvements in the Tensor G5 compared to the G4, but not across the board, and the fact that a newer generation chip has lower scores in some areas than the one it’s replacing is a bit baffling.
Of course, you should take all of this with a pinch of salt, as it’s unclear what software the Pixel 10 Pro XL was running. Things do often get improved on that front at the eleventh hour before launch, so perhaps this isn’t very indicative of what we can expect from the Tensor G5 – or at least we hope so.
