ARM Mali-400 MP2 vs PowerVR GE8100

ARM Mali-400 MP2

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-400 MP2

The ARM Mali-400 MP4 is an OpenGL ES 2.0 capable GPU for ARM SoCs (System on a Chip). It is primarily designed for tablets and smartphones with mobile operating systems like Android. MP2 is the version with two cores (so called fragment processors) and a vertex processor.

PowerVR GE8100

► remove from comparison

The PowerVR GE8100 by Imagination Technologies is an integrated graphics card for entry level ARM SoCs. Smallest variant of the Series8XE series of GPUs (GE8xx0) with a peak fillrate of only one pixel/clock. Supports OpenGL ES 3.2 and Vulkan 1.0.
