Qualcomm Adreno 306 vs Qualcomm Adreno 540 vs Qualcomm Adreno 302
Qualcomm Adreno 306 ► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Adreno 306 is an integrated graphics unit for smartphones and tablets that is used for mainstream SoCs of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410-series (e.g., Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 ). According the Qualcomm, the Adreno 306 offers a reduced power consumption compared to the older Adreno 305 .
The performance looks to be on par with the older Adreno 305 (at least in our review of a HTC Desire 510) leading to the assumtion that the technical specifications should be similar.
Qualcomm Adreno 540 ► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Adreno 540 is an integrated graphics card in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC for smartphones. It was introduced in early 2017 and can be found in high-end Android smartphones.
The integrated GPU is based on the optimized architecture of the Adreno 530 , but features clearly improved clock speeds (710 versus 624 MHz according to Anandtech ) and better thermal stability. This is also thanks to the new 10 nm process the Snapdragon 835 is produced in. In the reference smartphone from Qualcomm, the Adreno 540 is able to beat or perform at a similar level as the fastest smartphone graphics cards on the market (e.g. the ARM Mali-T880MP12 , ARM Mali-G71MP8 or Apple A10 GPU ). Therefore, it should be perfectly suited for demanding 3D gaming and also mobile VR and 4K displays.
Qualcomm Adreno 302 ► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Adreno 302 is an integrated graphics card for smartphones and tablets that is used for entry-level SoCs of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 series (e. g. MSM8210 ). The Adreno 302 is a slightly lower clocked version of the Adreno 305 . Very demanding Android games of 2013 may not run completely smooth, but simple titles like Angry Birds and the usual multimedia tasks are no problem. The GPU offers unified shaders and supports OpenGL ES 3.0, OpenCL and DirectX 9.3.
