PowerVR SGX544 vs ARM Mali-G78 MP24 vs ARM Mali-G51 MP4

PowerVR SGX544

► remove from comparison PowerVR SGX544

The PowerVR SGX544 is a integrated graphics card for tablets and smartphones (often in ARM based SoCs). It usually clocks at 384 MHz and offers 4 dedicated pixel- and 2 vertex shader (MP1 version). The card supports DirectX 9_3 and OpenGL ES 2.0 and is used in Android based tablets and smartphones. There are also versions with more clusters. See e.g. the PowerVR SGX544MP2 with two clusters.

ARM Mali-G78 MP24

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G78 MP24

The ARM Mali-G78MP24 is an integrated high-end graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). It was introduced late 2020 in the HiSilicon Kirin 9000 (e.g. Huawei Mate 40). It integrates all of the 24 possible cores and is based on the second generation of the Valhal architecture. According to ARM it offers two new features: asynchronous top level and fragment dependency tracking.

The graphics card is one of the fastest in Android devices of 2020 and therefore able to run all games fluently.

The GPU supports all modern graphics APIs like OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.1 and OpenCL 2.0.

ARM Mali-G51 MP4

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-G51 MP4

The ARM Mali-G51 MP4 is an integrated mid-range graphics card for ARM based SoCs (mostly Android based). It was introduced mid 2018 in the HiSilicon Kirin 710 and uses 4 clusters (hence the MP4name). 

The G51 is based on the Bifrost architecture and is intended for cheap mainstream phones. ARM suggests typical clock speeds of 650 MHz with up to 6 cores (MP6).

The GPU supports all modern graphics APIs like OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 2.0, DirectX 12 FL9_3 (versus 11 in the G7x line) and Renderscript.
