Huawei is conducting tests for GPU Turbo Technology which can boost graphics processing efficiency by 60% and enhanced battery life

Chinese telecom major Huawei spends billions of dollars on R&D on its technology and and brings out technological advancements time to time. The smartphone maker is known for breakthrough technological advancements for its products.  The smartphone manufacturer has announced a revolutionary technology called GPU Turbo Technology which can boost graphics processing efficeicny by 60%. Considering that a lot of Honor and Huawei smartphones feature the same chipset, it’s likely that a number of Honor phones will get this new technology.

The company said the technology – which can be enabled on a device via a software update – will be made available to the company’s other phones as well, from mid-range to flagship. GPU Turbo will first make it to the Honor Play smartphone that was announced today. Other Honor devices including Honor 10, Honor View 10, Honor 9 Lite and Honor 7X are confirmed to get this technological upgrade soon.

As the world moves towards a more visual medium, smartphone UIs have become more intuitive, fluid, as well as lively. You have animations in almost every step of the interface, adding to a more natural user experience. And as phones are becoming more powerful, graphics intensive games have started to gain popularity. In these times, there’s often the conflict of how much graphics is good enough on smartphones.

The GPU Turbo is special because it dramatically increases the Graphics Processing Efficiency on smartphones, thereby allowing smartphones to run heavier graphic intensive games without significantly affecting battery life. If you are looking for numbers, then this new technology from Huawei and Honor manages to increase graphics processing efficiency by 60% and reduces SoC power consumption by 30%. These are some significant numbers which when put in real life situations should give you a remarkable boost in graphics performance. Huawei unveiled new GPU Turbo tech (along with the Honor Play) earlier this month. The technology increases performance of a device by 60% while reducing its power usage by 30%.
