Qualcomm Adreno 725 vs ARM Mali-G710 MP7

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.

ARM Mali-G710 MP7

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G710 MP7

The ARM Mali-G710 MP7 or MC7 is an integrated high-end graphics card for smartphones with 7 of the 16 possible cores. It is based on the third generation of the Valhall architecture by ARM which offers a 20% higher performance and energy efficiency than the previous generation. We first encountered it in the Google Tensor G2, which is manufactured in 5nm by Samsung.

The theoretical performance of the G710MC7 is about 9% better than the old ARM Mali-G78MC20 in the Tensor G1. Compared to modern high end smartphone GPUs, like the Apple A15 / A16 GPU or the Qualcomm Adreno 730, the G710 MP7 is noticeably slower. Still, modern demanding games like Genshin Impact or PUBG Mobile can be played in 60fps fluently (see below).
