Vulkan is a 3D graphics and compute API, like a way better OpenGL, released nearly 2 years ago.
Helio P10 (Mali T860) has Vulkan support.
Since android 7.0, there is Vulkan support in vanilla android:

The successor to OpenGL. Much more emergent/elegant/efficient. So simpler to implement, yet more powerful.
See:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulkan_(API)I wonder what this has to do with Blackview though. It’s the job of the GPU manufacturer, to provide such drivers. And of Android (Google) to provide the OS support.
