TL;DR<\/p>\n
Google will reveal its Pixel 10 phones<\/a> tomorrow (August 20), and we expect all of them to be powered by the Tensor G5<\/a> processor. This is a landmark chip for the company, as it\u2019s the first Tensor chip produced by TSMC. But leaked benchmark scores have drawn a negative reaction online.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n Redditor HustlersPassion posted two<\/a> images<\/a> showing benchmark scores on an apparent Pixel 10 Pro XL and Pixel 9 Pro XL. The first picture shows Geekbench 6 CPU results, while the second image shows Antutu scores. The Redditor claimed that they were a retail store employee and that this Pixel 10 Pro XL model was a demo unit. Interestingly, the user claimed that the device was \u201cremotely factory reset\u201d shortly after posting these pictures.<\/p>\n In any event, Redditors had a decidedly mixed reaction to these scores. While the Geekbench results suggest a particularly big multi-core jump compared to last year, some users decried these scores compared to rivals. At least one user said this was slower than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 scores. That wouldn\u2019t be a surprise as Google has typically lagged behind Qualcomm\u2019s flagship silicon in this regard. For what it\u2019s worth, the Samsung Galaxy S24<\/a> (2,314\/7,157) offers a similar single-core score but a much higher multi-core score.<\/p>\n \u201cWith such a lackluster spec bump I\u2019m curious to see how they justify locking up the software features to the 10 series. \u2018This 4% bump in processing power is the ONLY way our phones can handle Camera Coach,’\u201d added user Whalesgoaroo.<\/p>\n \u201cIf u expect to pay top dollar for the flagship make sure it\u2019s a flagship. And this ain\u2019t the flagship,\u201d said Redditor Fun-Chemistry2592.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, people quickly noticed that the Antutu GPU scores were actually worse than the Pixel 9 Pro XL\u2019s scores.<\/p>\n \u201c9ProXL already has a weak GPU and Pixel 10 has even a weaker one? WTF????\u201d added user Pec0ne. Another user also claimed that even their Pixel 8 Pro offered better GPU scores.<\/p>\n What do you think of these leaked scores if true?<\/p>\n 49 votes<\/p>\n I’d be happy with these scores<\/p>\n 8%<\/p>\n It’s okay but could be better<\/p>\n 20%<\/p>\n I’d be disappointed<\/p>\n 71%<\/p>\n I\u2019m guessing this low GPU score is due to old drivers, Antutu not being optimized for the GPU, downgraded graphical hardware, or a combination of these issues.<\/p>\n Despite all these criticisms, more than a few Redditors chimed in to insist that benchmark scores don\u2019t matter for everyday usage. This is a fair point, as even older Pixel phones and mid-range phones handle most tasks just fine. However, it would be a shame if you spent a ton of cash on a phone that has worse performance in some ways than its predecessor or rivals.<\/p>\n![\"Google](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Google-Pixel-10-Pro-XL-vs-9-Pro-XL-Geekbench-HustlersPassion-scaled.jpg\"\/ "\\"Google")
