Tips to Boost BGMI Performance on Any Device

If you happen to have a device that is somehow able to run the game, then here are some useful tips that will come in handy to boost your FPS in the game.

Lower graphics settings: Reduce graphics settings in the game by toning down all graphic options to low. Especially shadows, models and other related settings that suck up a lot of power from your device. Lowering graphics will help boost your game's performance and also avoid overheating.

Adjusting resolution: Making changes to the game's resolution settings can also help improve performance. In certain cases, the game might shrink to an impossible size and become difficult to play. So it becomes important for you to choose an ideal resolution size that fits your screen while offering better FPS.

Kill your background application: Ensure no background application is working, especially browsers and high-demanding applications. These things can not only drain your battery life but also hamper your device's ability to run BGMI at its best.

No power saving mode: Power saving mode is great for idle use, but making it a habit while using the phone is not a good idea, especially during BGMI. So, ensure this feature is turned off to gain the best possible performance.

Keep your phone charged to max before playing as it can hamper your game's performance. Clear cache and if possible, play on a good 5G network for best ping and performance.
