Qualcomm Adreno 725 vs Qualcomm Adreno 640

Qualcomm Adreno 725

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Adreno 725

The Qualcomm Adreno 725 is an integrated graphics unit for smartphones and tablets, which is used in the Snapdragon 7+ Gen. 2 and is designed for smartphones as well as tablets. The associated SoC (system-on-a-chip) was introduced at the beginning of 2023. 

Qualcomm promises a performance increase of up to 100 percent compared with the predecessor Adreno 644.

The Adreno 725 supports all common Android APIs like Vulkan 1.1 and is already prepared for use with the Unreal 5 engine.

Qualcomm Adreno 640

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Adreno 640

The Qualcomm Adreno 640 is a smartphone and tablet GPU that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC. The chip will be available from early 2019 and will be used mainly in high-end Android devices.

According to Qualcomm, the Adreno 640 GPU offers a 20% improved performance over the Adreno 630, its predecessor, which is integrated in the Snapdragon 845 SoC. The enhanced performance is achieved by the Adreno 640 having 50% more FP16 and FP32 compute units (ALUs) than the Adreno 630, while its 7 nm FinFET manufacturing process makes it 20% more efficient too.

The Adreno 640 will also support the Vulkan 1.1 API, something which is possible for other Adreno 600 series GPUs too.
