Arm Mali G2-Ultra NX brings dedicated neural accelerators, a new execution engine and a third-generation ray tracing unit to help developers create desktop-class gaming experiences on mobile devices.
Demands from mobile users continue to grow. They want richer visuals, smoother frame rates, and increasingly immersive experiences. For developers the challenge is complex, as they aim to meet these expectations while staying within the strict power, thermal, and bandwidth limits of mobile devices.
Traditional rendering can deliver high image quality, but reaching desktop-class visual fidelity within mobile constraints demands greater efficiency. Neural graphics offers another path, using AI to reconstruct detail, generate intermediate frames, and refine images while reducing GPU demands and overall system workload.
However, bringing neural graphics into mainstream mobile experiences requires deep integration across the GPU architecture and developer ecosystem. With more than 14 billion Mali GPUs shipped to date, Arm has the scale and experience to make these capabilities accessible across the next generation of mobile devices.
That shift is at the heart of the Arm Mali G2-Ultra NX GPU. As the first AI-native Mali GPU, it integrates neural acceleration directly into the graphics pipeline, helping developers deliver richer, more responsive visual experiences within the mobile power envelope and bring neural graphics into production faster.
An AI-native GPU for neural graphics
Mali G2-Ultra NX is built for neural graphics from the ground up, with neural accelerators tightly integrated into the shader cores, allowing neural graphics workloads to run alongside graphics and compute workloads. The tight integration reuses the GPU memory system, coherent caches, and control structures, helping reduce data movement and improve efficiency across the pipeline.
Mali G2-Ultra NX combines dedicated neural acceleration, a new execution engine and third-generation ray tracing to enable AI-native graphics on mobile.
Three neural technologies that are part of Mali G2-Ultra NX demonstrate what this enables:
Neural Super Sampling (NSS) reconstructs higher-resolution images from lower-resolution renders, reducing the amount of conventional rendering work needed to produce a high-quality final image.
