Competitive consistency in PUBG Mobile hinges on three pillars: frame stability (90/120 FPS), low input latency, and heat management over 20–40 minute sessions. This guide lays out device targeting, in‑game settings, sensitivity baselines, and thermal controls to sustain performance from drop to final circle.
Device targeting:
- Flagship tier: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3/4 or Dimensity 9300+ for sustained 90/120 FPS in Smooth settings with high touch sampling.
- Mid-range tier: Lock to Smooth + 60 FPS for stability; focus on touch responsiveness and thermals rather than chasing peak frames.
In‑game settings:
- Graphics: Smooth; Frame rate: Extreme/90 or 120 where supported; Anti‑aliasing: Off for comp play; Shadows: Off; Bloom: Off.
- Gyroscope: On (Always On); keep ADS sensitivity distinct from general sensitivity.
- Sensitivity baseline (example, tune to device):
- Camera: 3rd Person 120%, 1st Person 100%
- ADS: 2x 80%, 3x 70%, 4x 55%, 6x 40%
- Gyro: 2x 230%, 3x 210%, 4x 190%, 6x 160%
Thermal and network control:
- Use an active cooling clip; keep brightness 25–30% indoors; disable 5G and background sync during scrims.
- Prefer 5 GHz Wi‑Fi or Ethernet dongle; avoid charging while playing; pre-cool for 3–5 minutes.
Touch and feel:
- Seek >240 Hz touch sampling; reduce aggressive screen protectors. Matte films can improve glide but slightly reduce clarity—choose based on aim preference.
Troubleshooting quick fixes:
- Frame drops mid‑match: lower screen brightness, clear background apps, toggle airplane mode on/off to reset radio.
- Micro-stutter: disable adaptive refresh in system settings if available; relaunch game after long sessions.
- Packet loss: change router channel, reduce connected devices, test a different DNS.
Ship it: Save two profiles—“Ranked Stability” (Smooth + 60 FPS) and “Scrim Peak” (Smooth + 90/120)—and switch based on lobby and device temperature.
