According to sources heard by the page, the processor is codenamed Whitechapel and the first units ordered have even been sent for testing at Google. The models ordered would be octa-color ARM with hardware optimized for machine learning. The processors, which can also be used on Chromebooks, are manufactured in partnership with Samsung – especially due to the South Korean’s 5 nm manufacturing architecture and experience in the area, as she has been responsible for the processors of iPhones for years and the line itself, Exynos. Launch However, custom processors for Google are still in the very early stages of evaluation, and are unlikely to be ready in time for an eventual Pixel 5, which is due to launch in late 2020. In addition, adoption on notebooks would be even later , as it depends on the component’s initial success on mobile devices. Currently, who supplies the processors to the company is Qualcomm. So far, none of the companies involved commented on the matter, which for now should be treated as a rumor.
