Apple A15 GPU 5-Core vs ARM Mali-G72 MP12 vs ARM Mali-G68 MP5
Apple A15 GPU 5-Core ► remove from comparison
The Apple A15 Bionic 5-core GPU is an integrated graphics card in the higher end versions of the A15 Bionic SoCs. It is used e.g., in the iPhone 13 Pro. It uses all 5 cores in the chip (contrary to the 4-core variant ) in the iPhone 13 and 13 Mini.
The A15 GPU with 5-cores is currently the fastest graphics card in smartphones and easily bests e.g. the older Apple A14 GPU or the Adreno 660 .
It is manufactured in the new 5nm process and therefore should be very energy efficient.
ARM Mali-G72 MP12 ► remove from comparison
The ARM Mali-G72 MP12 is an integrated high-end graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). It was introduced in October 2017 in the Huawei Mate 10 and uses 12 clusters (hence the MP12 name). In our benchmarks it performs between a Adreno 530 and 540 and is therefore suitable for demanding mobile games.
The G72 is based on the second generation of the Bifrost architecture and offers improvements in the machine learning efficiency and a bigger tile buffer for 16x anti-aliasing.
The GPU supports all modern graphics APIs like OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 2.0, DirectX 12 FL11_1 and Renderscript.
ARM Mali-G68 MP5 ► remove from comparison
The ARM Mali-G68 MP5 (or G68MC5) is an integrated mid-range graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). The MP5 version uses five of the six possible clusters / cores.
It was introduced early 2023 in the Samsung Exynos 1380 SoC . It is based on the Valhall architecture and is advertised by ARM as a "sub-premium GPU". It offers all features of the Mali-G78 series including improvements for battery runtime and machine learning.
