ARM's new Mali-T800 graphics cores give it a shot at its ambitious goal of stealing share from Imagination and Qualcomm in mobile graphics.
With its new Mali-T800 graphics core family, ARM has a new weapon in its ambitious goal of winning designs in more than 600 million SoCs in 2015. There’s no clear way at this point to measure exactly how the new cores stack up against heady competition from Imagination Technologies, Qualcomm and others, but it’s a safe bet ARM will expand its market share in graphics this ear.
The new family includes the Mali-T820, Mali-T830 and Mali-T860 GPUs, expected to start appearing in SoCs in the middle of this year and in handsets by early 2016. The Mali-T820 and Mali-T830 offer up to four shader cores, scaling to 16 shader cores in the Mali-T860 to serve a range of systems from smartphones to ChromeBooks.
The Mali-T820 provides up to 40 percent more performance density compared to the Mali-T622 GPU. The Mali-T830 strikes a balance of performance and efficiency, delivering up to 55 percent more performance than the T622. The T860 is for the most demanding consumers who want a great visual experience on their mobile device, providing high performance and 45 percent more energy-efficiency compared to the T628
