Do these phones have an upgrade to the "phone" part? My Pixel 8 Pro keeps dropping networks every few days and takes minutes to reconnect.


They are using a new modem this year but it is still Samsung rather than Qualcomm.

Pixel 7 and 8 used the Samsung 5300 which wasnt very good so the new 5400 might be better but we will have to wait for reviews and what not.

Google is switching from Samsung to TSMC for chip fab next gen, so the Pixel 10 might end up with a significantly better modem.


Tsmc is manufacturer, but whose design will they be using?


Leaks say that tensor G5 is designed in-house based on ARM softcores [0].
