Recently some users have complained that PUBG Mobile lags when players attempt to play and charge their phone at the same time. This is likely due to the phone thermal throttling. Thermal throttling is when the CPU overheats and tries to balance the temperature by automatically setting the speed lower. It does this so that the phone can generate less heat and cool down. If you are facing the same issue, here are some ways you can fix PUBG Mobile lag while charging.
Possible Remedies to Fix PUBG Mobile Lag
- Players can lower their graphics and FPS settings while they are plugged in and playing to ease the stress on their phone.
- Players can charge their phone via laptop with a data cable. This will charge slower but it will also be cooler than when plugged into a socket. They might lose battery while they are playing in this method.
- Players can use Battery Saver mode and shut off all the applications in the background.
- Players can use a phone cooler with a power bank to prevent overheating issues while still charging and playing.
- Players can use the application CPU Z to monitor the thermal section to check for overheating. Plugged in and unplugged.
These are some of the ways players can rectify this issue. As a brief recap, here are the requirements for PUBG mobile on both Android and iOS.
