ARM Mali-400 MP2

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-400 MP2

The ARM Mali-400 MP4 is an OpenGL ES 2.0 capable GPU for ARM SoCs (System on a Chip). It is primarily designed for tablets and smartphones with mobile operating systems like Android. MP2 is the version with two cores (so called fragment processors) and a vertex processor.

ARM Mali-400 MP4

► remove from comparison ARM Mali-400 MP4

The ARM Mali-400 MP4 is an OpenGL ES 2.0 capable GPU for ARM SoCs (System on a Chip). It is primarily designed for tablets and smartphones with mobile operating systems like Android. MP4 is the version with four cores (so called fragment processors) and a vertex processor. According to ARM, the performance is slightly lower than a PowerVR SGX 543MP2 (probable with all four fragment processors).
