The minimum phone specifications needed to play Mobile Legends are Android 4.1 or later and 2.5GB of RAM, thus your phone must support these features. Anything less will cause lagging and an unpleasant gaming experience in general.

There are numerous budget and flagship phones that can support Mobile Legends. The important specs are in the processor, cooling, and gaming optimized software and hardware. The best phones for gaming include Iphone, Samsung, Xiaomi and Realme Phones. Xiaomi and Realme emphasize budget phones that are optimized for gaming.

 

4. In-game Events

Mobile Legends hosts annual and even one time events held monthly and yearly. These events are accessed by users who try to get in early, to access draws and prize pools and may cause lag in the games system when overwhelmed with traffic.

There is no possible way of avoiding this and it is quite random but knowing this may help you understand that a delayed response in the games server could be for the reason stated and a solution to this is playing safely behind your teammates and not trying to carry the game, or testing your ping and waiting for a while.

 

3. VPN

It has been rumored that using a VPN improves your gaming experience, but this is an unsubstantiated fact that can be proven wrong. In the end, it comes down to the server's response to your gaming data.

Playing in a region outside your zone may cause the games server to take time to respond. The data transfer between your server and the one outside your region is different, and even though you may enjoy gaming with different nationalities, the server's response affects the whole team.

 

2. Updates

Mobile Legends updates take time, and Wi-Fi is recommended when downloading updates. Update downloads stop when you enter battle and start again after the battle ends.

Your phone is bound to be filled with other apps that make your life easier in some way or other games that you may enjoy playing. This reduces your RAM when trying to play Mobile Legends.
