Arm announced a wave of agentic AI-focused updates to its IP portfolio at its Arm Everywhere China event, spanning mobile devices, robotics, and cloud/enterprise infrastructure. Among the highlights is the Mali G2-Ultra NX GPU, which integrates neural accelerators capable of delivering AI graphics performance at under one watt of power for mobile devices.
Arm has launched the Mali G2-Ultra NX, described as its first AI-native Mali GPU, which embeds dedicated neural accelerators directly into shader cores alongside a new execution engine and third-generation ray tracing hardware. The design lets neural graphics workloads run in parallel with traditional graphics and compute tasks, sharing memory and cache resources to cut data movement and power use while aiming for desktop-quality visuals on phones.
Arm has introduced its CSS for Mobile 2 platform for chipmakers, featuring a redesigned GPU called the Mali G2-Ultra NX that it describes as its first AI-native graphics processor. The chip uses three AI techniques—neural super sampling, frame rate upscaling, and denoising—to boost resolution and frame rates directly within the graphics pipeline, while updated CPU clusters target AI agent workloads. The technology is expected to appear in premium Android phones starting in 2027.
Arm has unveiled its Mali G2-Ultra NX graphics processor, the result of five years of work to build AI-based gaming acceleration into mobile GPUs. It debuts today inside Xiaomi's custom Xring O3 chip in the Xiaomi 18 Fold, launching in China, with Arm executives saying the chip will reach other phones, tablets and possibly Chromebook-style devices next year.
New leaked photos shared on Weibo by tipster Digital Chat Station show what appears to be Xiaomi's upcoming book-style foldable, featuring a wide inner display, noticeable bezels, and a punch-hole front camera. The design closely matches Xiaomi's own HyperOS 4 teaser image, lending credibility to the leak ahead of the device's confirmed September debut as the Xiaomi 18 Fold.
Xiaomi has detailed its new XRing 03 processor on Weibo, built on a 3nm process and featuring an unannounced Arm G2-Ultra NX GPU with 16 cores and AI-based upscaling. The chip also includes a 10-core CPU with six 'super' and four 'large' cores, no small cores, peaking at 4.35GHz, plus a four-core NPU rated at 200 TOPS. It will debut in the Xiaomi 18 Fold, set to launch next month.
