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 | Adreno 730 | Apple M1 | | GPU Frequency | 970 MHz | 3200 MHz | | GFloPS | 1800 | 2600 | | # of Cores | | 8 | | # of Shader Units | 1024 | 128 | | Display | 7680 x 4320 pixels | 2732 x 2048 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.
Gaming benchmark| Fortnite Mobile | | | | PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG Mobile) | | | | Garena Free Fire - The Cobra | | | | Call of Duty: Mobile | | | | Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5 Mobile) | | | | Minecraft: Pocket Edition | | | | Real Racing 3 | | | | Sniper 3D | | | | Need for Speed No Limits | | | | Mortal Kombat X | | | | CSR Racing 2 | | |
The numbers in this table indicate the maximum FPS that was received on the device with the corresponding processor. Depending on the configuration of the gadget and graphics quality settings (Ultra, Medium, Normal), the results may differ quite significantly. We recommend that you better study the results of the Antutu 8 and GeekBench 5.2 becnmarks.
