How to setup PUBG Mobile
Choose your login wisely: You can play as a Guest, use Facebook, or Twitter to sign-in on PUBG Mobile. Facebook or Twitter means you have to connect to your account, but then you're able to sync your data, so you can switch to another phone or tablet without losing all your progress.
Prepare your phone: PUBG Mobile is a demanding game and your phone needs to be at its best. Remove anything you don't need onto it, quit those other apps it's likely you have running in the background. Switch off battery saver, turn off data savers, turn off night mode for the best experience. You can also desire to turn off auto-brightness - it may dim the overall game during the overall game which means you can't see so well. Brighter = better.Prepare your network: There's not so much you are able to do here, but also for a lag-free experience, you need a good link with the PUBG servers. The mobile network will usually have a variable speed so it's Wi-Fi most of the way. Test your network speed using something such as Speedtest (Apple App Store, Google Play) and avoid trying to play when someone else is streaming 4K content. Our home Wi-Fi reports 5ms, and this works great.
Connect your headphones: PUBG Mobile has great audio and the speakers on your own phone won't get it done justice. Connect your headphones for a far more immersive experience - in addition, it can help you pinpoint approaching enemy.

When you start the overall game, you'll load to the lobby where you could change a full selection of settings, select your game type, organise your pals, claim rewards and manage your inventory.
How to select your server: From the opening screen you'll see "server" in the top left, with a drop-down menu. You can currently select from North America, Europe and Asia.

Higher is much better as you can see more, but that may adversely affect performance.

There's also a car option - this can keep the overall game smooth and adjust the settings for you.
Engage HDR mode: OK, so this is a bit of a cheat as we're yet to find a phone that reports HDR support in PUBG, nevertheless when it does come, you'll find the option in the graphics portion of the settings.
