Arm says its next-gen mobile GPU will be its most ‘performant and efficient’

Just go ahead and put it in the next MediaTek Dimensity.

Both are direct successors to the Cortex-X4 and Immortalis G720 that currently power MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300 chip inside flagship smartphones like the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro and Oppo Find X7. As Andy Craigen, director of product management at Arm, explained when the company launched its first hardware-based ray-tracing Immortalis design in 2022: “The challenge is that ray tracing techniques can use significant power, energy, and area across the mobile system-on-a-chip (SoC).” Other than the current-gen phones already named above, MediaTek’s Dimensity 9200 chip that powered the Vivo X90, X90 Pro, and Oppo Find X6 was the first to use Arm’s flagship hardware-based ray-tracing GPU design, the Immortalis G715, with the Cortex-X4.
