Gameplay style
For a BR title, the most critical thing to consider is the gameplay style. Gameplay in Free Fire is arcade-ish, with competitive, fast, and intense matches that provide the most immersive experience on the virtual field.
The action in COD Mobile is much quicker, and its BR mode is also influenced by arcade styling. COD Mobile is an excellent alternative for those who enjoy faster-paced gameplay. Its performance, movement speed, and smoothness add to the player's gameplay experience.
Free Fire now features shorter, faster, and more intense matches in much less time than COD Mobile. A match in Free Fire takes about 10-15 minutes to complete, while a game in COD Mobile takes at least 30 minutes.
Graphics
COD Mobile and Free Fire support high frame rates and have excellent HD graphic settings. On the other hand, the former has greater sharpness, contrast, and map detailing, which brings vibrancy and diversity to the gameplay experience.
Meanwhile, the graphics in Free Fire are more cartoony and arcade-inspired. It does, though, have vivid colored frames, which many players prefer.
Verdict: Which is better?
COD Mobile is a resource-intensive game and hence requires 3 GB RAM or above to run decently. Hence, it will not run on low-end devices that have 2 GB RAM. Free Fire is a better option here, as it is less heavy on devices and can run easily on low-end phones.
Keeping aside the performance on low-end devices, COD Mobile is a far better BR title while considering the in-game graphics and gameplay. Meanwhile, Free Fire is also a great option where players can try out exclusive and unique BR features.
