Much like the majority of the international Samsung Devices, Exynos SoCs other than the Exynos 2200 use the Mali GPU, which is the reference design from ARM
but not the older pixels ? those should work. still sucks for everyone having a decent phone but its not equipped with snapdragon so youre left out for now. :/

hello all,
regarding Adreno, I have look at a website which lists all smartphones/tablets with Adreno 640/650/660.
For the 660 the address is here. https://www.phonebunch.com/phone-filter/gpu/adreno-660/page/1/
I have browsed all the pages to resume the models listing, so here it is.

Thats alot of users in EU and other regions that wont be able use that feature even if having the same phone but just not adreno gpu.
Yeah I have S21, but, international version lacks supporting chip. Blah.
Addition (not from that website) :
Adreno 640
Why the hell are Pixel phones excluded when they meet the requirements? ****-backwards
Pixel 6 uses the Mali GPU
Much like the majority of the international Samsung Devices, Exynos SoCs other than the Exynos 2200 use the Mali GPU, which is the reference design from ARM

The Pixel 5 has an Adreno 620, which isn't one of the Snapdragons that is supported.
Welcome to the club.
Am sure we will get more supported SoCs at the next update cycle in a couple of weeks
It should be dependent on the same library within Unity's library of meshing:
I just wish more was told about the high requirements for this feature
It's not using Unity's libary though, otherwise only Apple phones with LiDAR could use Scan Meshing. It's almost certantly a Niantic libary they themselves devolped for the Lightship platform.
Regardless of it being Niantic's own library, they would have better compatibility matching the compatibility of ARC Kit so more devices would be able to utilize it.
It just seems weird to have a limited pool from the start - this is like the launch of Prime all over again with what they defined as compatible devices - the ones they didn't define were just auto-assumed to be low specs when it wasn't the case.
Meshing works on my Moto Z2 Force and it's not listed here
What is meshing anyway? Is it something to do with scanning?
Id better like to have more devices (unofficially patched to ARCore) scan again,so more Agents could provide at least videoinfo about scanned object.
But seems for me soon we will have only devices with meshing support able to scan,that means more accurate data but very small amount of scans.
yes u are supposed to see what needs to be scanned.
Anybody have the Intel on if the pixel series, especially if the 6 series devices will have eventual compatibility with AR meshing or if it can only be done by the listed GPU units? Sad to lose the meshing capability because I got a new phone, more over that it's a Google phone and that I would think Niantic and google would still work closely together to fill gaps considering Niantic is Google's AR brainchild.
I had to let go of my Moto Z2 Force because of ATT saying it wouldn't be compatible with their network after February. It was a three+ year old phone that was meshing capable. My new Moto 5G Ace isn't. I don't understand how a newer phone from the same manufacturer isn't compatible.
