ARM Mali-G710 MP7 vs Qualcomm Adreno 720

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).

Qualcomm Adreno 720

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Adreno 720

The Adreno 720 is a graphics unit for smartphones and tablets, which was first used in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 was installed. The chip was introduced at the end of 2023 and is primarily used in Android-based upper mid-range devices.

HDR gaming with 10-bit color depth is possible with the graphics chip, and the Adreno 720 also supports the APIs OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 FP and Vulkan 1.3.

The GPU is capable of driving WFHD+ displays at up to 168 Hz and 4K displays at 60 Hz and offers support for HDR10+, HLG and Dolby Vision.
