Google develops proprietary Whitechapel processor: Pixel 6 will receive it first

There have been rumors on the Internet for several years that Google is working on a proprietary chip. Now journalists

9to5Google publications found out some details about him.

What is known

According to leaked documents, the processor passescodenamed Whitechapel and numbered GS101 (GS stands for Google Silicon). The leak says that Korean manufacturer Samsung is involved in the development of the chipset. By the way, such information has already appeared on the network before. Therefore, it is likely that Google's first SoC will be similar to Exynos chips.

There are no characteristics of the platform yet.It is only known that two devices codenamed Raven and Oriole will receive it first. They should be released to the market this fall. With a high degree of probability, we are talking about the Pixel 6 and its simplified model.

A proprietary processor will help Google in the futurecompete with Apple, and also save money, because every year the top Qualcomm chips are becoming more and more expensive. Rumor has it that it was precisely because of the high price that the company installed the Snapdragon 765G SoC in the current flagship Pixel 5, instead of the Snapdragon 865.
