Calling all PUBG Mobile warriors! Get ready for an even smoother and more responsive battle royale experience. The latest update (version 3.2) brings the highly anticipated 120 FPS support to a selection of high-end devices. This means you can enjoy silky-smooth visuals and potentially gain a competitive edge with faster frame rates.
What is 120 FPS and Why Does it Matter?
Frames per second (FPS) refers to the number of images your device can display on the screen in one second. A higher FPS translates to smoother animations and less lag, especially during fast-paced action like firefights and intense chases. With 120 FPS, you’ll experience a significant improvement in visual fluidity compared to the previous 90 FPS. This can give you a slight advantage in reacting to enemies and aiming accurately.
Before You Enable PUBG Mobile 120 FPS:
It’s crucial to understand that 120 FPS is a demanding feature. To achieve this frame rate, pushing your phone’s hardware to its limits can generate more heat. 120 FPS puts more strain on your phone’s graphics processing unit (GPU). If you have 120FPS enabled, consider avoiding long gaming sessions, especially when your phone is charging. This will help to avoid overheating and possible damage to the device.
Is Your Device Compatible?
Currently, only a select group of high-end smartphones and tablets can leverage the power of 120 FPS in PUBG Mobile. Here’s the official list of supported devices as of May 2024:
Samsung: Galaxy S23, S23 Plus, S23 Ultra, S24, S24 Plus, S24 Ultra, Z Fold 5
