Pixel 10's GPU fell short of rivals — Pixel 11 may repeat the mistake

Google's Pixel 10 series switched from Arm Mali GPUs to Imagination Technologies' PowerVR architecture, using the already-aging DXT-48-1536 chip. A year of software updates failed to close the performance gap with rival flagship GPUs. Leaks suggest the upcoming Pixel 11 will use another modest PowerVR GPU, the CXTP-48-1536, risking the same shortfall.
