The Tensor G3 is likely to bring advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) as well, thanks to an upgraded Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) running at 1.1GHz, compared to 1GHz on the Tensor G2. While clock speed alone may not indicate a significant improvement, the Tensor G2’s TPU already demonstrated a 60% performance boost for camera and speech tasks despite the same clock speed. Specific details regarding the AI improvements in the Tensor G3 are yet to be disclosed.
Additional enhancements with the Tensor G3 include a new digital signal processor (DSP) to potentially enhance photography capabilities and support for UFS 4.0 storage, which offers faster and more efficient performance compared to the UFS 3.1 supported by the Tensor G2. These features bring the Tensor G3 in line with offerings from flagship devices like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra.
