Apple A17 Pro GPU

► remove from comparison Apple A17 Pro GPU

The Apple A17 Pro GPU is an integrated graphics card in the Apple A17 Pro SoCs (used in the 2023 Apple iPhone 17 Pro smartphones). According to Apple, the GPU is a big redesign compared to the previous generation and offers hardware accelerated ray tracing and mesh shading. The performance per core did not change much, but due to the additional core, the performance is up to 20% faster.

The A17 is produced in the new 3nm process at TSMC and should be very energy efficient.

Qualcomm Adreno 710

► remove from comparison Qualcomm Adreno 710

The Adreno 710 is a graphics unit for smartphones and tablets, which was first installed in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2. The chip has been available since 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, which supports the APIs OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 FP and Vulkan 1.13.

The GPU is able to control FHD+ displays with up to 144 Hz and offers support for HDR10 and HDR vivid.
