In all Mali based allwinner GPUs, and for the PowerVR ones later on: * Mali or PowerVR are GPUs, or 3D engines. They are meant to take geometry information and run matrices on them, and then combine the result with images (textures) and produce some pixels out of that. * Mixer processor is a 2D engine. It is meant to work on flat images and on moving them about and/or combining them. First is complex and big and powerhungry. Second is simple and small and efficient at the few things it does.
