Fast Technology reported that last week, Google officially launched its new generation flagship Pixel 11 series to the global market, including four models: Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and the foldable Pixel 11 Pro Fold.
A user tested the GPU performance of the Pixel 11 Pro on a demo unit at a physical retail store. The device is equipped with Google’s self-developed Tensor G6 chip, manufactured using TSMC’s 3nm process, and features a PowerVR C-Series CXTP-48-1536 MC1 GPU.
In the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme benchmark, the Tensor G6 scored 2653 points in the GPU test, with an average frame rate of 15.89 frames per second. This score represents a drop of approximately 21% compared to the previous generation Tensor G5’s 3214 points. Some netizens joked that this is the only 3nm mobile chip in the industry that has taken a step backward.
Compared to Qualcomm’s offerings, the Tensor G6 performs significantly worse, with the Snapdragon 8E5 scoring a whopping 7173 points in the same test – a substantial difference. Not only the GPU, but the Tensor G6’s CPU performance also lags far behind Qualcomm chips.
In Geekbench 7 testing, the Tensor G6 scored 2293 points in single-core and 7108 points in multi-core tests, while the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8E5 (Note: the test device was a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra) achieved 3082 points in single-core and 10381 points in multi-core tests. The test data shows a significant gap between Google’s self-developed chip and Qualcomm’s flagship chips.
Based on Google’s iteration cycle, the overall performance of the Tensor G series chips lags behind Qualcomm’s by about two generations. Nevertheless, the Pixel 11 Pro is not cheap, starting at $1,099, which is about 7,405 yuan (12GB+256GB version), and the top-of-the-line version (16GB+1TB) is priced at $1,449, which is about 9,763 yuan.
The gap between performance and price remains a real problem for the Pixel series in the high-end market.
