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 – the Galaxy A53.
The phone has popped up on Google’s official ARCore-supporting device list along 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:
- Samsung Galaxy A23

There was a time when technologies like ARCore were taxing on the processor, though that’s no longer the case.
