Huawei first discussed GPU Turbo via its sub-brand Honor in early June. The technology is said to improve performance when using graphically intensive games and apps. To that end, Huawei said GPU Turbo will initially support shooter PUBG Mobile and MOBA Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, with more titles to be announced in the future.

GPU Turbo is said to optimize system resource management to improve graphics processing efficiency “by up to 60 percent” and reduce SoC power consumption “by 30 percent.” In theory, this should make games run smoother and consume less battery. We’ll have to wait until August to see the results for ourselves.
