Currently, the Adreno 650 on Snapdragon 865 is the only GPU that will receive Play Store updates but we can expect that in the near future Qualcomm will provide such updates for all of its GPUs. .

Qualcomm is able to provide updates to Adreno GPU drivers on the Play Store thanks to Project Mainline, Google's latest attempt at reducing Android fragmentation. Google created Android Pony EXpress (APEX), a new file format for packaging apps like the current APK. APEX can also be released via the Play Store. When users download and install, APEX files will expand into system files and update by overwriting existing files.
