Mp2 Vs Mali-450 | Mali-g31
From these numbers, we see the Mali-G31 MP2 generally outperforming the Mali-450 in modern benchmarks, even with only two execution engines. Its Bifrost architecture allows it to punch above its weight class.
Because it lacks hardware support for unified shading, it can never be upgraded to support modern APIs like OpenGL ES 3.0+ or Vulkan. The Modern Bifrost Architecture (Mali-G31 MP2) Mali-g31 Mp2 Vs Mali-450
Typically paired with older CPUs (like the Amlogic S805 or S905W), it struggles with newer video codecs. While it can decode standard H.264 and sometimes basic H.265 (HEVC) at 1080p, it cannot natively handle modern, high-efficiency streaming formats. From these numbers, we see the Mali-G31 MP2
The test was simple: a 1080p video loop. From these numbers
