Does Pokemon Go have a minimum resolution requirement?

Does Pokemon Go have a minimum resolution requirement? - Yellow Pikachu Plushmascot

I'm looking to buy a budget phone which has a 480x854 screen resolution. While Googling for Pokemon Go's requirements, all I see is that a minimum resolution of 720p is recommended, but I couldn't find any minimum required.

Will Pokemon Go work in such a small screen? The phone is an Asus ZB452KG with Android 4.4 and a quad core CPU, so I'm only worried about the screen.



Best Answer

There is no resolution requirement for Pokémon GO, it should work fine on your phone.

As Nolonar pointed out, the phone doesn't have a gyroscope in it, however the app should still run fine with the augmented reality mode switched of in settings.

Google play store recommends 2GB of ram or more but fewer should still be able to run it but could lag as you've noticed. However another reason for the lag could simply due to a poor connection since the game definitely runs better over wifi.

My screen is 480p and works fine. Just some lag but that's because my phone is just cheap in general.
