Popular YouTuber @Mrwhosetheboss has singled out the Google Tensor G3 as a major failing of the Pixel 8 Pro. According to the YouTuber, all of the new generative AI features found on the Pixel 8 Pro cannot be processed onboard the device, but need to be off-loaded to the cloud for processing, despite Google pitching the device as being “AI-first.”
Fair enough when its out of context, but a privacy advocate doesnt but a Pixel for anything thats touted as a Google feature, what they’re paying for, is the hardware that ironically allows them to most effectively cut ties with Google as a whole.
People who dont do that could care less how its happening, only that it is, and they their battery lasts.
Yea, Google features are very anti privacy, it’s funny how it’s still one of the most secure phones on the market. I got the pixel 8 for the fact its going to be supported with GrapheneOS, and get 7 years of security updates.
