Gaming is a very common use case where a true high end chipset can help. 4 year old video, but Genshin Impact ran better on the Exynos chip of the time compared to Tensor: https://youtube.com/watch?v=IG5eTHJfM5U Sure, 4 years later anything can run Genshin, but the point is that the next new hit game is just around the corner and gamers appreciate the extra performance. My understanding is also that the pixel’s tensor chip series is not very “flagship” in terms of battery stamina/efficiency when you’re doing heavy tasks such as gaming. So it’s not always about having the faster processor, you can also benefit by your processor being the most efficient on the market and making the most use of the battery in your chassis.
