HUAWEI has launched the first GPU Turbo last June to offer an improved gaming performance on their smartphones. A few months later, a follow-up of the useful feature – GPU Turbo 2.0 has been introduced and guess what, the new HUAWEI Mate 20 X is one of the first batch smartphones to get it! GPU Turbo 2.0 of course offers more capability compared to its first generation, here are how it enhances your gaming experience:
-
Better Game Performance
With GPU Turbo 2.0, you will be able to get a faster, smoother and more stable gaming experience on HUAWEI Mate 20 X. The device’s Kirin 980 runs an average frame rate of 58.8 FPS on PUBG Mobile (Chinese version), which is higher compared to Snapdragon 845’s 54.1 FPS. The Kirin 980 also consumes less power – it uses only 38.7 mW/frame, while Snapdragon 845 uses 45.2 mW/frame.
-
More optimized games
The first generation of GPU Turbo only supports optimization on PUBG Mobile and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, but the GPU Turbo 2.0 can do more! It now supports a few more popular mobile games including NBA 2K18, Rules of Survival, Arena of Valor and Vainglory. You will be able to enjoy these mobile games with better frame rates and power efficiency.
-
Quicker touch response
As a mobile gamer, how quick a device responds to our touch input generally affects our result in competitive mobile games. For example in PUBG Mobile, higher delay in the touch response time means you get to respond to others’ attack or open fire slower than others. Mate 20 X‘s EMUI 9.0 with GPU Turbo 2.0 boost 36% lesser latency compared to EMUI 8.1. In result, it only takes an average of 60ms to respond to your touch input.
-
New App Assistant
Coming with the Mate 20 X is a new App Assistant dedicated for mobile gaming. It doesn’t just optimize the device for better performance, it also blocks any onscreen notifications or minimizes phone calls so you won’t easily get distracted from the game you are playing.
Featuring the latest Kirin 980 with GPU Turbo 2.0, HUAWEI Mate 20 X boasts a powerful and enjoyable mobile gaming experience. For those who are considering a gaming smartphone with a big screen and great cameras, Mate 20 X should be in your list.
HUAWEI Mate 20 X is available for RM2,899 in Midnight Blue and Phantom Silver. You can find more information about the device on the official site and Facebook.
