Samsung Shocked: Google’s Budget Pixel Outsells the Galaxy A56

According to SAEDNEWS: quoting Zoomit, the Pixel 9a scored 1530 in single-core and 3344 in multi-core benchmarks on Geekbench with the Tensor G4 chip.

As reported by Zoomit, in AnTuTu, the Pixel 9a achieved an overall score of 1,049,844, with scores of 260,567 for CPU and 434,441 for GPU. In comparison with the Pixel 9, which scored 1925 in single-core and 5674 in multi-core tests, the Pixel 9a lags behind. This difference is likely due to the experimental nature of the device and its weaker cooling system.

One of the direct competitors to Google’s latest phone, the Galaxy A56, scored 1364 in single-core and 3899 in multi-core Geekbench tests. Samsung's representative also achieved an overall score of 908,689 in AnTuTu, although lower scores were observed in some tests.

Note that Tensor chips generally produce more heat and are less stable compared to their competitors. In stress tests, the Pixel 9a retains about 60% of its initial performance, which may indicate less-than-ideal stability for this device.
