The Tensor G5 TPU is designed to offer substantial performance improvements. Google claims that the new chip will be 34% faster on average, with significant gains in both single and multi-threaded performance. These enhancements are expected to translate to better responsiveness when browsing the web, launching apps, and running OS operations [1].
The chip features a high-speed memory interface, utilizing LPDDR5X for higher memory bandwidth and UFS 4.0 for faster flash storage. Additionally, Google has upgraded the TPU to be up to 60% more powerful, with the "newest" Gemini Nano model from DeepMind running 2.6x faster and 2x more efficiently compared to its predecessor, Tensor G4 [1].
The Tensor G5 TPU is also responsible for a wide array of on-device AI features, including Magic Cue, Call Notes with actions, the new Journal app, Scam Detection, and Gboard Smart Edit. For voice translation, the chip employs a generative model running in parallel with a classical audio ML model, offering one-shot voice preservation capabilities [1].
Google's Pixel 10 series, powered by the Tensor G5 TPU, is now available on the Boost Mobile Network. Boost Mobile has announced that customers can preorder the Google Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL at discounted prices, with no contract or trade-in required. The Pixel 10 lineup offers advanced AI features, a powerful camera system, and exceptional durability, making it an attractive option for consumers [2].

Google has unveiled its Tensor G5 TPU, a significant change from previous years as it will be manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. The Tensor G5 TPU is part of Google's tensor processing unit series. The change in manufacturer is a notable shift in the tech giant's strategy.
Google has announced the Tensor G5 TPU, a significant advancement in its Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) series. This new chip, set to be manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC) on the latest 3nm process node, represents a notable shift in Google's strategy. The move to TSMC signifies a departure from Google's traditional reliance on Samsung for its custom silicon [1].The Tensor G5 TPU is designed to offer substantial performance improvements.
