Hey dame! i recently got a pixel 8a and the performance were similar to this (not good) , so i randomly decided to install genshin impact from tap tap instead of Google play store , and its like how It should run ! mine did 60 FPS on max settings for like 4 minutes (tensor g3 Is inefficient) and then got the usual performance similar to genshin downloaded from Google play store, but considering this has much Better cooling and Little bit more efficient than the tensor g3 in pixel 8a if Is not a problem can you re-test genshin downloading It from tap tap global ? p.s i love your videos ❤
Even when Google switches to TSMC, we may see better performance, but I fear they will still lag behind the competition because they like to stick with older version hardware, like older arm cores, older gpu versions, and older storage. All the top Android flagships are up to UFS 4. Google is still using UFS 3.1. Even the newer Exynos can run this game at 60fps without issues, even though it gets hot enough to melt its adhesives away.
@ScrayaZ Two different SOC. I have the s24 Ultra. It has 8 Gen 3. The thermal throttling is a little bit more aggressive on the S24 Ultra than on the Exynos s24 series. The vapor chamber in the s24 Ultra is also not that great. It will definitely lock at 60fps if played with a phone cooler or medium settings.
Well this chip just came out, and Genshin isn't the best optimized for Android. I think after a few updates it should do better. The pixel 8 pro did pretty decent with Genshin.
I'm not really surprised that they're selling you a device from 3 years ago with current high-end prices. At first glance I can tell you that the native resolution is 1080 and at least it keeps the fps stable at 40-50. Before, it couldn't even achieve that.
I don't know why Google still stick with the same old GPU as their G2 - G3 predecessor. With an old Mali GPU that is, ARM has already released their Immortalis lineups awhile ago, that is more powerful and also enable Hardware RT. And we can see that it performs side to side with the current Adreno lineups. At this point just get the Samsung S24 series, or the S23 series from last year
Because they have a contract with samsung. The tensor chips are just a slightly dofferently built version of the exynos chips. This contract ended with this phone , meaning that thesre seotching to cmf or whatever it was called next year, hope it helped!
If u buy a budget device like poco f6 or poco X6 pro it will easily outperform every pixel mobile in terms of gaming only mostly because tensor chips gets hot real quick so it throttles to keep it cool and can't even reach 60fps the only thing it's good at is Camera and UI
FR THO I dont know what google even think, its should improve performance to more better than last model, i mean at least make more better with it cuz that performance with that price is really gonna pissed me off others flagship device with that price should more worth it than this
To be honest, my s24 ultra also did not perform very well at the highest setting in genshin impact. But at least it was giving FPS around 52-61in 2k resolution. But this Pixel 9 pro XL is giving FPS around 34-42, and guys, it's not worth it. Now some people will say that bro pixel is not a gaming phone, Bruh it's 2024 and in this era, if you are buying a flagship phone, it should give the best at all things and Neither Samsung or Iphone say that their phone is a gaming phone so you should keep it in your mind. Now, the last main topic is that Genshin is not fully optimized in android phones, but the optimization is not bad as the pixel phones are giving.
What the people dont get is that those kind of Performance is not Futureproof it has slow storage aswell...7 years of Updates... and data on your phone.. if your storage is nearly full how the Performance will be in 2-3 years ? Maybe its not snappy Enough for every day tasks (still slower though) but how will it be later ? Will it he powerfull enough for new camera ai features ? I highly doubt that. Even now its slower in every day tasks then other phones in this PRice... And we should not buy that...even though the other aspects are great. But the Performance is unacceptable for that price
Spot on and something many fail to consider when discussing the performance nowadays. Yes, now it can perform OK in general tasks and light/medium gaming (obv it fails in heavy games even now). Cool, but not only the operating system will get heavier in each new version, but also apps gets heavier over time as well. This is why iphones performs great even after many years - I have 11 pro max as secondary next to my 15 pro max, currently on iOS 18 beta 7 and I can tell you that this phone is totally great for daily, including gaming. How that pixel will fair in 5-6 years time? So, many people are rightly concern of the performance of that chip as it's already obsolete at release.
@@gmdhighvoltage i got a pixel 6 which is now 3 years old and it has 0 laggs in general usage. i have no problems playing games either, but i dont play games like genshin. but i dont think genshin is a game worth to consider, when even the s24 ultra has only 51fps on average.
This device COULD be suffering from something oneplus 12 is also suffering from, out of control thermal throttling set from the Operating System. Oneplus 12 was super great at gaming early into its release, but then the devs decided to optimize for even better battery, and increasing the thermal throttling of the device so it doesn't overheat too much. That means even at 35 -37 C, the oneplus 12 is already thermal throttling, which is nuking its frames. I quickly refunded the phone when I found out, as my 3 year old red magic 6 phone was outperforming a $1k phone from oneplus 12, which some even considered a hidden gaming phhone early on its release. Some people have been able to get better performance on oneplus 12 by a great amount by just rooting or bypassing the Oxygen OS from oneplus 12. This means they can bypass the thermal throttling set by the Operating System, which is dangerous though, as the device won't control its heat management, but alright if you got a cooler.
Dame, this is just my suggestion for future videos, when testing genshin impact in phones please also test a abyss run and mainly try using a hyperbloom team because hyperbloom reaction has a lot of damage calculation process even some low range pc’s suffer to process the hyper bloom damage (dendro,hydro,electro = hyperbloom)
I did abyss in the end of video. However, I don't have any dendro characters. But we get a free 5 star in 5.0 so I'll forsure pick the dendro character.
@@shsuemlshdk I thought they already improved graphics with 4.7 and adding highest resolution vs high. I thought they were going to further optimize so more devices can run highest resolution.
Its 2024 and Google really need help about performance, they really doesn't know anything about it, i mean for the range of prices with that performance is massively SKIP
I think it doesnt heat up much cause google underclocks the gpu performance a lot. Which makes sense cause genshin getting around 40fps average on your settings.
Actually they cut the GPU almost in half and clocked it higher… The full spec‘ed out Mali 715 even has ray tracing and +50% performance (which could be leveraged with the CPU and NPU for AI tasks). 😅
Pixel has very forward-looking software features, but it's a pity that its hardware is so weak. We can see that in the past two years, Samsung is developing many AI assistance functions, and China manufacturers are also doing the same. That leaves the software gap closing, while the Pixel's hardware lags far behind its competitors.
Think twice before you will go for Pixel 9 (Pro). This phone has same or similar performance to 2 year olds flagship and google wants you to pay >999€ for it.
Check the warzone mobile now on Galaxy S24 Ultra because they fix the fps bugs... Compare now with Iphone 15 pro. I think Galaxy S23 and S24 Ultra both beat the Iphone 15 pro on same settings. 😉 Check it bro
Thermals have a direct correlation with performance. Ergo the worse FPS will reduce thermals as the chip will run at lower rates and produce less heat. I am sure if you replicate the FPS on an iPhone or S24U their temperatures would drop to similar to the Pixel or likely less on the iPhone. I agree, and I suspect most of the tech YT knows that Pixel is a poor choice for the tougher games.
Actually iphone chips are leader (for many many many years) in W/FPS so it will win even if capped to reach those temps. You can see it in this video as well - max temp 40 degrees for 15 pro max (A17 pro), it's not that much higher than 37, it will literally destroy the pixel and sit at something like 55-60 average, just with lower 1% fps. Most likely the newest snapdragon will win with decent margin as well.
When I saw all the Wild Life Extreme tests where Google’s Tensor G4 chip could never at any point exceed the performance of the S24 Ultra even with the 8 Gen 3’s
Could be adjusted graphics settings and resolution that is suitable for the Tensor G2. But I will text WuWa next so I can do more of a deeper dive into the game. Maybe WuWa is just optimized very well for Pixel devices
Well Google's Tensor processors have always been shit, I game on the Poco X6 Pro and that just costs $350 and that phone as an Antutu score of 1300k so that should answer your queries as for the Google device here it's max score goes upto 1000k but it can't keep that constantly which is why it's so shit. 10:06 also to all iPhone Shills bruh how about you look at this chart here for a second 😂
Literally my Poco F5 has easily 50-60 FPS in Genshin on highest possible settings. And it's a budget phone! Come on Google... Really, it's just horrible, how can you sell a phone for so much money with such terrible performance...
@@sashanik544 and the reason its lagging for you so much is because of first - throttling, and second - mainly, because poco x6 pro has a mediatek processor, which is very poorly optimized in a lot of games

Do people really buy phones for gaming. I'm a huge gamer, owning all consoles and PC.. I NEVER game on my phones and don't have a single one installed.
Just played the game on my friends phone yesterday, Pixel 8pro, got 26FPS average in Fontaine waters. I don't think it improved at all, it simply got worse.
@@fa14bi-78 oh, well that sucks, was hoping it would get at least like 40. More proof that holding out for the next phone is a good idea i guess. Thank you for letting me know!
@@rowburt The Moto Edge 30Ultra I have got an 46FPS average in the waters. (Snap 8+gen1) The Moto G5G+ (Snap 765) got 26FPS average at maxed out settings as well, though it only renders at 720p instead of 864p like the Pixel. Still it felt disappointing that the Pixel 8pro barely outperforms a Snap 765 in gaming.
I think it’s more on Google than Hoyoverse. Genshin is pretty optimized nowadays. I think the performance is due to the 2-cores Google removed from Tensor G4
@@DameTech it's only mihoyo, mihoyo runs bad than in others games, like wuthering waves, I agree it can be google because the lenovo y70 a 2 year old phone that still runs 60fps in genshin
Google Pixel has always had problems with heat, they still don't make Vapor Chamber Cooling (VC). Google's problems have been there since the 1st generation Google Pixel, if they use TSMC and it's still the same. This means the Google Pixel Team should be fired
Considering the phone is not thermal throttling, I would bet its just poor optimization on part of the game. Given this is the first (and only) phone series to have the tensor G4, I would give it a few months for optimizations to be made.
@@marxedYou don't really need such high resolution on these small displays anyway. In the past, even large TVs only had Full HD, and no one complained. Besides, a higher resolution drains the battery faster.
that said, for a 300$ phone, it would still be around 30% below average in terms of Gaming performance, it's more in line with 200-250$ phones, while costing 1k+
I don't think we should call phones terrible for gaming. I think it's more accurate to say that it's terrible for gaming at the highest settings. Because if you lower the graphics and render resolution, the FPS becomes acceptable and the gameplay is fine. The downside is that the visuals will be lower of course. For people who don't mind lower visuals, there's no reason to avoid this phone completely because it can't play games at the highest settings."
I'd rather manufacturers start focusing on efficiency instead of cramming in the most power hungry chip and require a 6kmah battery *cough cough SD 8 Gen 4*.
This means Low Performance in General ..IT has slow storage speeds aswell .. that Show in everyday Tasks what Matters more is If your storage IS 50 percent filled or more .. you could in encounter stutters then Not Futureproof enough...7 Years of Updates ? With that Chip..If yes you will Miss Features.. You will See If you shot 100s of Photos and used IT for a year or 2 then you will Wish 50 percent more Performance. ITS Not a 700 Euro budged device anymore...but you get a 300 Euro Phones Performance...
apple chips have better cpus but snapdragon have better gpus the only difference in real life is google sticking to the old opengl instead of vulkan (like apple did with metal) wich would increase performance and stability add to that some lazy devs don't optimise their games for android you can check the 3d bechmarks for more details
not really. i daily drive an iPhone 15 Pro for general use and iPad Pro M2 for illustration. They are more powerful for short bursts in productivity work, but will throttle fast after 30 minutes of gaming. I play with a ROG Phone 7 Ultimate without an external cooler. the iPhone stutters way more in games compared to the previous gen ROG Phone. It doesnt even hold 60fps in genshin abyss, while the ROG Phone holds 60 for hours. my room is always 20 degrees here in canada btw

Do not buy for anything unless you can get it for half its price actually
Do people really buy phones for gaming. I'm a huge gamer, owning all consoles and PC.. I NEVER game on my phones and don't have a single one installed.
Huge gamer that plays on console and not a PC lol
@@DeadPiixxelyou really thought you made a point… cringe
@@DeadPiixxel there fixed, doesn't make my point any less valid
How you play without touch the screen?
Might need an update to improve performance similar to what happened with the 8 series
Just played the game on my friends phone yesterday, Pixel 8pro, got 26FPS average in Fontaine waters.
I don't think it improved at all, it simply got worse.
@@fa14bi-78 oh, well that sucks, was hoping it would get at least like 40. More proof that holding out for the next phone is a good idea i guess. Thank you for letting me know!
@@rowburt The Moto Edge 30Ultra I have got an 46FPS average in the waters. (Snap 8+gen1)
The Moto G5G+ (Snap 765) got 26FPS average at maxed out settings as well, though it only renders at 720p instead of 864p like the Pixel.
Still it felt disappointing that the Pixel 8pro barely outperforms a Snap 765 in gaming.
I want Snap! Then I can say: I've got the power
Worse than my pixel 7A with 90 hz lol
How are you playing with a controller?
Gamesir App
i genuinely think this will get better cus wuwa is a heavier game but runs better
It's literally the same chip as previous gen, so of course it's Ganna be low.
That's camera phone, not for gaming lol
Google should have went with snapdragon with their pricing
Have you tried things like AetherSX2 and Dolphin?
Puede ser que no esté optimizado, cual fue el resultado del Google pixel 8 pro?
This is why I have no interest with Google...
Let's just wait for the android 15 update to fully release and marinate it, if the performance stays the same we can blame it on mihoyo
I think it’s more on Google than Hoyoverse. Genshin is pretty optimized nowadays. I think the performance is due to the 2-cores Google removed from Tensor G4
@@DameTech it's only mihoyo, mihoyo runs bad than in others games, like wuthering waves, I agree it can be google because the lenovo y70 a 2 year old phone that still runs 60fps in genshin
Thanks for this video!❤
i love pixel software, besides the bugs, but my iphone, that's a year older, has better performance at closer to 120 fps.
Google Pixel has always had problems with heat, they still don't make Vapor Chamber Cooling (VC). Google's problems have been there since the 1st generation Google Pixel, if they use TSMC and it's still the same. This means the Google Pixel Team should be fired
Hey Dame could you invite some genshin impact developers to explain this performance?
pixel 8 had horrible fps perfomance too, but then after an update after some weeks of launch, it did run smoothly, same happpened with fortnite
what is power usage of pixel 9pro xl??
Something between 5.5 and 6.5 w
@@DimonDeveloper impossible since that would make the phone get into 40C+ degree but the phone stayed around 36C hot
Tensor G4 probably Exynoss version of Pixel
Thanks bro why pixel low performance
Considering the phone is not thermal throttling, I would bet its just poor optimization on part of the game. Given this is the first (and only) phone series to have the tensor G4, I would give it a few months for optimizations to be made.
Welp gyess im not getting rhe pixel.now. hopefully it performs better in other games
I don't who play in 720p developer must enable 1080p
720p is the in-game resolution at high resolution. Highest resolution setting is 864p
@@DameTech highest res is 864p on iphone highest res is the same ??
@@marxed highest resolution on iPhone is 903p
@@DameTech what a highest now excuses are at 0 iphone is running at highest res i think they are going defending rog who is rendering lower .
@@marxedYou don't really need such high resolution on these small displays anyway. In the past, even large TVs only had Full HD, and no one complained. Besides, a higher resolution drains the battery faster.
google pixel lineup specially starting with tensor SoC is never for gaming ever, its just for social media and mainly for camera.
Being worse than a 8 gen 1 is actually insane
It's also worse than Snap 7 gen 3 and Snap 865.
The 8gen1 is worse than the 865 as well in this game
Haha ដំណើរការលេងហ្គេមគឺគួរឱ្យភ័យខ្លាច។
This phone can't survive in Natlan!
Still better than my potato phone
S24 ultra is much better on gaming?

it looks good...
Isn't it obvious with TG4😂
such overpriced garbage
Other than fps drop, I didn't quite catch any stutters and heave lag spikes which is quite normal on this game
Thermals are also amazing, Cooling system has been really upgraded this time
Pixel phones arent meant to handle games. They're meant to take photos and scroll social medias.
They are ment to be 300$ phones, we know
that said, for a 300$ phone, it would still be around 30% below average in terms of Gaming performance, it's more in line with 200-250$ phones, while costing 1k+
Should i buy the pixel?
If you're ok with 30-40fps , just buy what you love
I don't think we should call phones terrible for gaming. I think it's more accurate to say that it's terrible for gaming at the highest settings. Because if you lower the graphics and render resolution, the FPS becomes acceptable and the gameplay is fine. The downside is that the visuals will be lower of course. For people who don't mind lower visuals, there's no reason to avoid this phone completely because it can't play games at the highest settings."
I'd rather manufacturers start focusing on efficiency instead of cramming in the most power hungry chip and require a 6kmah battery *cough cough SD 8 Gen 4*.
the 8g4 has actual power efficiency improvements
just ignore peak performance on the flagship SoCs as it's completely useless
Who even buys Pixel devices for gaming unless it's just a bit of casual gaming sometimes ??
This means Low Performance in General ..IT has slow storage speeds aswell .. that Show in everyday Tasks what Matters more is If your storage IS 50 percent filled or more .. you could in encounter stutters then
Not Futureproof enough...7 Years of Updates ? With that Chip..If yes you will Miss Features..
You will See If you shot 100s of Photos and used IT for a year or 2 then you will Wish 50 percent more Performance.
ITS Not a 700 Euro budged device anymore...but you get a 300 Euro Phones Performance...
This is horrible!! 😢
I was wrong I bought this one is so shit at pubg
Pure Android is a joke. Thank you to Samsung for modifying Android for the better
Samsung same lost FPS when heats
Another 11min video. Bruh
There is no need to test longer when Pixel is already dropping frames first minute of testing.

This is why iphone is the best! Pixel 9, S24u, and all Android phones are inferior to iPhones in gaming. 😂
apple chips have better cpus but snapdragon have better gpus the only difference in real life is google sticking to the old opengl instead of vulkan (like apple did with metal) wich would increase performance and stability add to that some lazy devs don't optimise their games for android you can check the 3d bechmarks for more details
not really. i daily drive an iPhone 15 Pro for general use and iPad Pro M2 for illustration. They are more powerful for short bursts in productivity work, but will throttle fast after 30 minutes of gaming.
I play with a ROG Phone 7 Ultimate without an external cooler. the iPhone stutters way more in games compared to the previous gen ROG Phone. It doesnt even hold 60fps in genshin abyss, while the ROG Phone holds 60 for hours. my room is always 20 degrees here in canada btw
