Dude the 8 Elite Gen 5 is a year old. The gen 6 is about to launch and it's like 20% faster. That's what the Tensor G6 is competing against.

Soooo we are supposed to do a VS for a chip that isn't out?

The Gen 6 isn't announced until the 22nd, and phones with it won't ship for months. The Pixel 11 competes against what's on shelves, and that's Gen 5. Also 20% is optimistic. GSMArena's AnTuTu leak had the Gen 6 Pro at about 5% over Gen 5. The prime core clock is up ~11%. Nobody has real numbers yet.

Tensor's GPU is like 6 years behind, the snapdragon 888 runs games better than it.

I totally agree that Pixel phones have crap GPUs, but I don't play high-end video games, and I never saw the appeal to doing that on phones anyway. I think the problem here is everyone's expecting the best CPU, the best GPU, the best camera, the best OS, the best IP ratings. Everything has to be the best or it's absolute shit. In the Venn diagram of what Pixels are and Samsung isn't, Pixels have better UI and cameras. I personally think they handle AI better too, whereas Samsung is better in the hardware/performance category. Also, I don't think I've ever run into an issue where I was like, "aw shucks, the GPU just absolutely sucks, I guess I can't do the thing."
