Samsung Galaxy A53 and over 20 other devices gain ARCore support
Google’s ARCore SDK makes it easier to develop augmented reality applications and ensures that users have a good experience with them, no matter what device they’re running. Phones must be certified first to ensure they can reap these rewards. The certification takes hardware such as the phone’s motion sensors, cameras, and CPU to see if they perform expectedly. New launches typically gain certification before launch or within a few months of release – and one of the latest to get that treatment is Samsung’s new mid-range champ – theGalaxy A53.
The phone has popped up on Google’s officialARCore-supporting device listalong with the many other Samsung devices from this year. The batch includes but is not limited to multiple A Series and M Series models: there’s also the freshly launched Galaxy F23 5G and the Galaxy Tab A8. Check out the complete list below:
There was a time when technologies like ARCore were taxing on the processor, though that’s no longer the case. Most devices today are powerful enough to support AR effortlessly, but Google still demands manual certification to ensure that they are fully capable of delivering an optimal AR experience. Aside from the aforementioned Samsung devices, there’s a boatload of iPhone and iPad models joining the party too:
