ARM Mali-G710 MP7 vs Qualcomm Adreno 730

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 730

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Adreno 730

The Qualcomm Adreno 730 is a smartphone and tablet GPU that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC. The chip will be available starting early 2022 and will be used mainly in high-end Android devices. 

According to Qualcomm, the Adreno 730 GPU offers a 30% improved performance thanks to 30% more ALUs over the Adreno 660, its predecessor, which is integrated into the Snapdragon 888 SoC.  Thanks to the new 4nm process, the power efficiency should also be improved.

The Adreno 730 supports Vulkan 1.1, OpenGL ES 3.2, and OpenCL 2.0 FP.
