Not GPGPU no, dedicated decoding blocks in the SoC. That's why getting hardware support in the phones is a Big Deal for video codecs (audio as well, to a somewhat lesser extent but support in the audio decoding block means audio playback can happen completely off CPU and let it sleep).
> But do phones have gaming-level GPU?
Not in the "modern PC gaming-class GPU". They have efficient GPUs but simply don't have the physical, thermal or energetic headroom.
In GFLOPS, higher-end phone GPUs are roughly where desktop GPUs were 10 years ago or so (though obviously there are other factors like texturing units and the like).
