Both titles have excellent optimization of graphics. PUBG Mobile is very realistic in texture with spectacular map details. COD Mobile has colourful and contrasting frames. However, the latter is faster and more inclined towards arcade-style gaming.

Both titles offer tremendous support for high FPS (60-90) in high-end (6 GB - 8 GB) RAM Android devices.

Both PUBG Mobile and COD Mobile require a minimum of 2 GB RAM. Both will function well on devices with 4 GB RAM and above. But COD Mobile will be much better choice regarding graphics quality and smooth performance.

COD Mobile offers a better gameplay experience in high-range devices with smooth 90FPS frame rate support and zero-lag. In contrast, PUBG Mobile becomes laggy and twitchy even after a short duration of play.
