Although the Pixel 7a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro are listed as having the same Tensor G2 chipset, according to Kamila Wojciechowska, a respected leaker, the Tensor G2 in the 7a is of lesser quality. Should consumers be angry because they thought they were purchasing a phone with the same quality chipset? That's up to them to decide. The question is, what is the difference, and is it a bait and switch?
Should Google issue an explainer so consumers are informed that there is a difference and if there are any differences in performance? As reported by PhoneArena, the chips are mostly the same, with the difference being how the chips are packaged during the last production stage.
