Google misses the deadline to manufacture TSMC-based SoC for the Pixel 9, may not see till Pixel 10 (www.androidauthority.com)

Looks like Google falls further behind as they fail to properly design and update newer iterations of Pixel phones. Rather than have a superior TSMC chip within the next 13 months, which would have a higher quality manufacturing process and significantly reduce power consumption, it looks like it'll be closer to 25 months if we're lucky.

As a Pixel 7 Pro user, I love my phone, but can't help but to want a more efficient chip with higher expectations of the battery life a TSMC chip would have.

I originally planned on getting a Pixel 9 with this in mind, but it looks like the earliest we may be getting a Pixel with this chip will be in 2025 on the release of Pixel 10.

So much for sticking with odd-numbered phones!
