Google Play Services for AR enables augmented reality experiences on Android devices. Almost all modern smartphones and tablets are certified for these services.
But for some reason, Google didn’t update the official compatibility list for a longer period of time. The list got updated only recently since July 2022.
The updated list includes 15 new Samsung devices but it misses the recently unveiled important ones.
According to SamMobile, the official Google Play Services for AR does not include the latest Galaxy S23 series. However, it contains the following Samsung smartphones and tablets.
- Galaxy S21 FE 5G
- Galaxy A13 5G
- Galaxy A22
- Galaxy A52s 5G
- Galaxy A73 5G
- Galaxy M22
- Galaxy M52 5G
- Galaxy M53 5G
- Galaxy F42 5G / Galaxy Wide 5
- Galaxy Quantum 3
- Galaxy XCover 6 Pro
- Galaxy Z Flip 3 5G
- Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G
- Galaxy Tab S7 FE
- Galaxy Tab S7 FE 5G
Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 Plus, and Galaxy S23 Ultra have more than enough hardware for AR services. They may get added to the compatibility list once they hit the shelves after their pre-order duration.
In related news, just like its predecessors, the Galaxy S23 series also lacks support for seamless updates. Thankfully, the next-gen Galaxy S24 family may arrive with this feature as hinted by Samsung officially late last year.
