iPhone 17 BGMI 120 FPS support is Live

The iPhone 17 BGMI FPS support is a feature that many iOS players have been asking for for a long time. Earlier, iPhone users were limited to 90 frames per second, while several flagship Android devices already supported higher FPS options. Players can enable this option directly from the in-game graphics settings.
How to Enable 120 FPS in BGMI on iPhone 17
- Open BGMI on your iPhone 17
- Go to Settings from the main lobby
- Tap on the Graphics & Audio option
- Set Frame Rate or Smoothness to 120 FPS
- Confirm the warning message and restart the game if required
Once turned on, gameplay feels much smoother, and movements look faster and more natural. This makes a clear difference during intense close-range fights, quick vehicle chases, and fast map rotations. The feature takes full advantage of the powerful A19 chip and the high refresh rate display of the iPhone 17.
At the same time, Krafton has added a safety warning. When 120 FPS is enabled, BGMI shows a message reminding players that long sessions at high frame rates may cause the device to heat up. This helps players stay informed and balance performance with device health.
Stable Performance and Update Availability
One major advantage that iPhone 17 users are clearly noticing is the overall stability of performance. Unlike some high-end Android devices that can struggle with sudden FPS drops during heavy combat or crowded situations, the iPhone 17 is running BGMI at 120 FPS smoothly and steadily.
Players have shared that the frame rate remains consistent even during intense gunfights, busy landing areas, and long vehicle chases. The BGMI 4.2 update is now fully live on the App Store. During the early rollout, some iOS users faced minor issues such as crashes and loading problems. Krafton has now resolved these bugs with quick fixes. iPhone 17 BGMI FPS option is safe to use; it won't break your phone.
