Is the Pixel 11’s Tensor G6 actually a good upgrade from the G5? I crunched the numbers
Tensor G6 isn't chasing benchmark glory. Here's what Google's new chip is really prioritizing.
Google has rolled out a new voice typing feature called Rambler on the Pixel 11, designed to better understand how people actually speak. This update, powered by Gemini Intelligence, can clean up dictation even when filler words are used, making the resulting text clearer and easier to read. Unlike traditional dictation, which leaves most of the editing work on the user, Rambler allows for natural speech and the option to review and send the text directly.
The feature works across the Pixel 11 series through Gboard. While Rambler promises to shorten the proofreading process, Google cautions that results may vary, and proofreading is still necessary. The upgrade also complements broader writing assistance on the Pixel 11 series, helping users draft or polish messages more effectively.
Availability is currently limited to select countries and languages, and additional features may require a subscription. The Pixel 11 series will go on sale on August 20, allowing users to experience the benefits of Rambler firsthand. The update also coincides with Google's release of an AirDrop-compatible Quick Share feature for older Pixel devices, expanding its compatibility beyond initial expectations.
Meanwhile, Motorola is reportedly developing its own wide foldable phone, drawing inspiration from the Pixel 8's success and addressing component shortages.
