OnePlus owners can now play PUBG at a higher frame-rate
June 12, 2025
We’ve seen plenty of Android manufacturers offer higher refresh rate screens on their recent phones, delivering a smoother experience when swiping through menus and in compatible games.
Games need to specifically support these high refresh rates though, and now OnePlus has announced that its phones will be first to support mega-popular titlePUBGat 90fps. More specifically, the Chinese manufacturer says theOnePlus 8 series,OnePlus 7T seriesandOnePlus 7 Prowill all support the higher frame-rate from today (August 6).
The support for 90fps gameplay is exclusive to the aforementioned OnePlus phones until September 6, and OnePlus says the support excludes China, Japan, and Korea.

The two companies say you should be able to benefit from the higher frame-rate when running, panning, while using the scope, and when looking for other players at a distance.
This isn’t the first time we heard of PUBG gaining 90fps support either, as Qualcommconfirmedat theSnapdragon 865reveal that it was working with the developers to implement the higher frame-rate. It’s also interesting to note that theOnePlus Nordisn’t supported, despite touting a 90Hz refresh rate as well. Presumably the company felt that theSnapdragon 765Gprocessor wasn’t beefy enough to run PUBG at a stable 90fps.
The PUBG support at 90fps also comes a while after Epic enabled 90fps support in Fortnite on Android, with the OnePlus 8 seriessupporting it first. Hopefully we see both PUBG and Fortnite support 120fps gameplay on the OnePlus 8 Pro.
