Google’s Pixel 10 devices to use a yet-unannounced MediaTek modem

According to a new report, Google is testing its Pixel 10 prototypes with a MediaTek modem, namely the T900. Google’s recent Pixels have all had Samsung Exynos modems, since their Tensor SoCs were practically customized Samsung chipsets.

But next year the Tensor G5 will be an entirely Google design, expected to be manufactured by TSMC. And so the company could very well switch to a different modem provider – you may expect it to be Qualcomm, but apparently it will be MediaTek instead.

The MediaTek T900 modem hasn’t yet been announced, so we don’t really know anything about it. That means it’s impossible to venture any guess as to how good it will be or how it would compare to Qualcomm’s latest and greatest.

Hopefully Google didn’t pick this one only because it was presumably cheaper than Qualcomm’s – we are assuming that based on countless rumors regarding flagship chipsets, where MediaTek seems to always undercut its rival in terms of pricing. Time will tell, however.
