iPhone will be more powerful then a PS3 in a few years!

iDevice chip designer ARM recently told the Inquirer that its latest Mali GPU chip, due out in 18 months, will allow mobile devices to equal the power of current-gen gaming consoles like the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.




ARM told the Inquirer it has laid out its roadmap for the next 5 years and realized it can’t rely on Moore’s Law alone to meet the low-power/high-performance demands of next-gen mobile devices. Only by combining the power of the CPU with a GPU can future mobile devices deliver performance gains in gaming and other popular mobile tasks like computational photography. The iPhone 4 recently became the most-used camera on Flickr.

Battery power is also a big concern for any next-gen mobile chip. ARM told the Inquirer:

Battery technology doesn’t have that [Moore's Law] sort of growth” and that shrinking the process node does not necessarily solve the power problem. [A] combination of technologies is needed, such as very aggressive power management and multiple GPUs that can power up as required.
