The Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro could be the first phones to carry an Android 14 feature that protects devices from memory safety bugs.
Memory Tagging Extension is a mandatory hardware feature on ARM V9 Central Processing Units cores which protects your phone from memory violations that can break down the security of your device. In other words, MTE can protect your device from memory safety bugs. But here's the thing; since the Google Tensor 2 chip that powers the Pixel 7 series uses ARM's V8.2 CPU cores, this feature will not work on the Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro.
Before the current year comes to an end , we should see Google release the Pixel 8 series, the mid-range Pixel 7a, the Pixel Fold, and the Pixel Tablet. We expect the Pixel 8 series to be the only 2023 devices to use the Tensor 3 SoC. To reiterate, since the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro could be the first phones running Android 14 to sport ARM's V9 CPU cores, the next full-size non-foldable Pixel line could be the first phones to support Android 14's new Advanced Memory Protection. Google states,"Given the ever increasing complexity of code, if left unattended, memory safety bugs are going to increase over time.
This might be the solution to a problem that has negatively impacted Android for a long time. Google says,"Memory safety bugs have consistently been the top contributor to Android security vulnerabilities, going as far back as the first Android release."Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
