Google has announced its transition to TSMC for manufacturing the next generation of Tensor processors, after four years of collaboration with Samsung Foundry. The new Tensor G5 processor is expected to be used in the upcoming Pixel 10 phones, manufactured using 4-nanometer technology by TSMC. This move comes as Google aims to address issues related to heat, modem efficiency, and overall performance of its processors compared to competitors like Apple, MediaTek, and Qualcomm. While Samsung Foundry had lower manufacturing costs, Google opted for TSMC’s 4-nanometer technology for better power efficiency. Meanwhile, Samsung Foundry is set to introduce the Exynos W1000 processor using 3-nanometer technology in its Galaxy Watch 7, with an expected launch in the later part of this year. The future of Samsung Foundry’s 3-nanometer technology lies in processors like the upcoming Exynos for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, expected to be unveiled early next year.
