In this comparison block, you should pay attention to the differences in clock speed and the number of cores. Also keep in mind that high CPU frequency affects battery life through power consumption.

GPU and Media

GPU	PowerVR GE8320	PowerVR GM 9446
GPU Frequency	650 MHz	970 MHz
GFloPS	126.8	247.35
# of Cores	2	3
# of Shader Units
Display	2400 x 1080 pixels	2520 x 1080 pixels

The frequency of the GPU does not always directly indicate its performance. To fully evaluate all the capabilities of a graphics chip, you should take into account the number of Shader Units and Cores, as well as how many GFlops it has.
