RAM (Random-Access Memory) is used by the operating system and all installed applications. GPU can also perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the CPU.

In mobile devices GPU is usually utilized by games, UI, video playback, etc. GPU is a graphical processing unit, which handles computation for 2D/3D graphics applications. It is measured in Megahertz (MHz) or Gigahertz (GHz). The frequency of the processor describes its clock rate in cycles per second. They increase the performance of the device allowing the execution of multiple instructions in parallel. Presently, besides single-core processors, there are dual-core, quad-core, hexa-core and so on multi-core processors.

Its main function is to interpret and execute instructions contained in software applications.Ī CPU core is the processor unit, which executes software instructions. CPUĬPU is the Central Processing Unit or the processor of a mobile device. System on Chip (SoC) A system on a chip (SoC) includes into a single chip some of the main hardware components of the mobile device. Materials used in the fabrication of the device's body. Applies for devices in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped.
