Understanding Mobile CPU Process Suffixes

Understanding Mobile CPU Process Suffixes

We all know that for mobile processors, the core of their performance lies in the CPU architecture and GPU cores. For example, ARM Cortex A76 is inherently stronger than A75, while Cortex A55 is certainly better than A53. In terms of GPU, Mali-G73MP6 (where the suffix “MP+x” indicates the number of compute cores) outperforms Mali-G72MP6, … Read more
