Along with said processing cores and other subsystems in the SoC you find the graphics processing unit, or GPU, in very close proximity to the processor. If you read the previous article detailing smartphone processors you would have discovered that the actual processing cores are just one part of the overall system-on-a-chip that forms the basis of all modern phones. Part 5: Connectivity & Sensors (coming soon) In today’s guide I’ll be looking at the second part of the smartphone SoC: the all-important and very powerful graphics processing unit (GPU). Over the next several days and weeks we’ll be posting up another part of the guide. Each section is intended to give you all the necessary information about the hardware, and even more for the tech enthusiasts out there, so expect them all to be lengthy and filled with details. This multi-part guide is intended to help you understand each and every one of the critical components in your smartphone and how they compare to other hardware on the market. There are at least 10 different CPUs inside smartphones, many different GPUs, a seemingly endless combination of display hardware and a huge variety of other bits and bobs. With such a huge range of smartphone hardware on the market today from vendors such as Samsung, HTC, Apple, Motorola, LG and more, it can be very confusing to keep up with what exactly is inside each of these devices. This is a complete re-post, which has solved these issues. Editors Note: This article was originally published earlier today but we were experiencing issues with it displaying correctly.
