Apple A17 Pro GPU vs Qualcomm Adreno 750

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 750

► remove from comparison

The Qualcomm Adreno 750 is an integrated graphics unit that is used in the Snapdragon 8 Gen. 3 and is designed for smartphones and tablets. The associated SoC (System-on-a-Chip) was introduced in October 2023 and can be found in many Android-based high-end products of the year 2024. 

Qualcomm promises a performance increase of up to 25% over its predecessor, the Adreno 740, as well as a 25 % improvement in efficiency. The Adreno 750 can now additionally adjust frame rates to within 1 Hz (QSnyc), which should improve power consumption once again. 

With Snapdragon Elite Gaming, games are now possible at up to 240 FPS and the Adreno Frame Motion Engine 2.0 is now said to be able to accelerate games that are limited to 60 FPS to 120 FPS. Upscaling for games in 8k should also be possible. 

The Adreno 750 supports all common Android APIs and is already prepared for use with the Unreal 5 Lumens. 

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is manufactured in the current 4nm process at TSMC.
