iPad Pro M4 hardware that matters in PUBG Mobile
Apple rates M4 at up to 1.5x the CPU of the M2 iPad Pro. The "4x" line in older copy was Octane GPU rendering, not PUBG Mobile frame time. You still get a 120Hz ProMotion panel, 11-inch or 13-inch glass, and enough GPU to hold Ultra Extreme on Smooth.
The panel is adaptive 10Hz to 120Hz. There is no "turn on 120Hz" switch. Limit Frame Rate in Settings > Accessibility > Motion caps the display at 60Hz. Leave that off for ranked.
The thin chassis dumps heat into the glass. After 25 to 40 minutes of 120 FPS, clocks drop and the 120 line becomes 90, then worse. A stable 90 session beats a 120 session that dies mid-circle.
Graphics and iPadOS settings for 120 FPS
Version 4.2 set the budget in writing: Smooth can open 90/120. HD/HDR caps at 90. Ultra HDR caps at 60. Ultra Extreme is the 120 FPS name in the Frame Rate row. Extreme is 60. Extreme+ is 90. The old "HDR + Extreme = 120" combo does not exist on current clients.
In-game Graphics
Settings > Graphics & Audio > Graphics.
Graphics quality: Smooth.
Frame Rate: Ultra Extreme. Confirm the note that says the current frame rate is 120 FPS.
Frame Rate Detailed Adjustment: Manual. Slider to 120.
Style: Colorful or Classic. Easier to read than Realistic or Movie.
Anti-Aliasing: Off. Shadows: Off. Auto-Adjust Graphics: Off.
Restart if the client asks. Confirm the FPS counter in Training Ground, not in the lobby.
The device list and the Smooth lock live on the PUBG Mobile 120 FPS supported devices page.
iPadOS before you queue
Close apps from the app switcher.
Auto-Brightness Off. True Tone Off. Brightness 60 to 80 percent.
Reduce Motion Off (Settings > Accessibility > Motion).
Background App Refresh Off for everything except the game.
Set a Focus that blocks banners. Game Mode on iPadOS 26 turns on when you launch a game. Confirm the banner.
Cellular model: Airplane Mode On, then Wi-Fi On.
Stay above 20 percent battery. Unplug before ranked.
iPadOS has no Android-style "clear cache" button. If the client corrupts after a patch, Offload App or delete and reinstall from the App Store.
When 120 falls to ~30 after a few minutes
Players on M4 report a 5-minute cliff: 120 holds, then the picture feels like 30. The M4 GPU has headroom. ProMotion and iPadOS power policy fail to keep the refresh locked.
Fix A (keep it on for the session)
Control Center > Screen Recording.
Launch PUBG Mobile.
Leave recording on. Mute the microphone. Stop after you exit.
Fix B (one-time toggle)
Set the game to Smooth + Ultra Extreme.
Settings > Accessibility > Motion > Limit Frame Rate On.
Open the game, then leave.
Limit Frame Rate Off.
Relaunch.
If 120 still hitches in Pochinki or a 4.5 hot drop, lock Extreme+ (90). A flat 90 line wins more fights than a 120 line that dumps mid-spray.
6-finger layout on iPad Pro
Six fingers split move, camera, fire, ADS, peek, and crouch so no thumb has to leave the stick. On a phone that grip stacks buttons. On 11-inch or 13-inch glass it fits.
A 4-finger claw is the ranked default on phones. Use 6-finger only if both index, both middle, and both thumbs land without a stretch. Import a tablet code, then move each button 1 to 2 percent until the pad of the finger hits the icon.
Import the tablet code
Official path from the PUBG Mobile Help Center:
Lobby > Settings > Controls.
Pick Classic or Arena Team. A Classic HUD does not copy onto Arena. Set both.
Customize.
Layout Management (search / cloud icon).
Share your current slot first if you want a rollback code.
Search Method > paste6960-4887-1407-8797-709 > Search > Apply > Save.
Quick Copy Classic TPP to Classic FPP. Repeat inside Arena.
Version 4.5 (9 July 2026) added Ninja Run, Chakra, and in-match HUD edit. The importer will not place those buttons. Park them in the dead center, off fire, ADS, and peek. Hold the in-match settings button to nudge size without leaving the round.
More phone and tablet codes sit on the PUBG Mobile claw layout codes page.
Finger map
Finger | Job |
|---|
Left thumb | Joystick. Sprint lock above it. |
Right thumb | Camera. Keep this quadrant empty. |
Right index | Primary fire. 130 to 150 percent on tablet. |
Left index | Scope / ADS. Near 100 to 120 percent so a swipe does not ADS. |
Middle fingers | Lean left / lean right. Peek & Fire On. |
Ring fingers | Crouch on the right. Jump and prone on the left or a second right slot. |
Hands cramp in week 1. Shorten sessions until each fingertip hits its icon without a stretch. Leave a seventh icon off the glass until crouch-spray is clean.
Button size after import
Codes arrive sized for someone else's panel.
Control | Size | Note |
|---|
Primary fire | 130 to 150% | Index pad, top corner. |
Scope / ADS | 100 to 120% | Too big steals camera swipes. |
Lean L / R | 100 to 120% | 20 to 25% gap from fire. |
Crouch | 110 to 130% | Recoil tap. Do not merge with prone. |
Jump / prone | 90 to 110% | Secondary. |
Joystick | 110 to 120% | Low left. |
Opacity | 60 to 80% | You need to see the model behind the icon. |
Control toggles that match 6-finger
Toggle | Value | Why |
|---|
Show Left Fire Button | Always On | Left index can fire if you swap sides. |
Right fire | Off or tiny | Stops a double tap. |
Scope Mode | Hold | Release to hip-fire. |
Peek & Fire | On | Lean without dropping the trigger. |
Peek & Open Scope | Disable | Lean must not force ADS. |
Camera Rotation while Leaning | Disable | Lean does not yank the camera. |
Camera Rotation while ADS | Disable | Thumb aim stays predictable. |
Jump / Climb | Separate | Climb must not eat a jump peek. |
Merge Crouch and Prone | Disable | Crouch-spray must not dump you prone. |
Aim Assist | On | Leave it unless a rulebook says Off. |
Sensitivity for iPad glass
The same 300% gyro that works on a phone over-rotates on 11-inch or 13-inch glass. Start 15 to 20 percent lower than a phone table. Change one slider by 5 percent after a 25 m M416 spray.
A HUD code does not write Camera, ADS, or Gyro. Those are a second share ID.
Camera and ADS (tablet start)
Scope | Camera | ADS | Use |
|---|
TPP No Scope | 100 to 120% | 95 to 115% | Scan and hip-fire. |
FPP No Scope | 105 to 125% | 95 to 115% | Indoor. |
Red Dot / Holo / Iron | 40 to 55% | 50 to 65% | Under 25 m. |
2x | 22 to 32% | 32 to 42% | 50 to 100 m. |
3x / Win94 | 18 to 26% | 24 to 32% | Burst. |
4x / VSS | 14 to 20% | 18 to 26% | 75 to 150 m. |
6x | 10 to 16% | 14 to 20% | Long hold. |
8x | 8 to 12% | 10 to 14% | Over 200 m. |
Free Look: TPP 110%, parachute 110%, FPP 80 to 100%.
Gyroscope
Set Gyroscope to Scope On for the first week of 6-finger. Thumbs already move the camera. Scope On adds tilt only in ADS, which cuts over-rotate. Switch to Always On after 25 m sprays stay on the dummy.
Calibrate on a table. System auto-rotate Off.
Scope | Gyro | ADS Gyro |
|---|
TPP / FPP No Scope | 230 to 270% | 230 to 270% |
Red Dot / Holo / Iron | 220 to 260% | 220 to 260% |
2x | 210 to 250% | 210 to 250% |
3x | 150 to 180% | 150 to 180% |
4x | 130 to 165% | 130 to 165% |
6x | 95 to 130% | 95 to 130% |
8x | 50 to 75% | 50 to 75% |
Climb on the dummy: add 5% ADS or gyro. Dip under: cut 5%. Do not copy a 301% Red Dot phone code onto M4 glass on day one.
Jonathan built a career on two thumbs plus high gyro. 2026 recaps disagree on 3-finger versus 4-finger. Copy the gyro idea, not a finger count. He is not a 6-finger iPad template.
Practice, then spend UC where it pays
Days 1 to 4: TDM only. 20 to 30 minutes. Move while firing. Crouch-spray. ADS on and off without lifting the stick.
Days 5 to 14: Training Ground. M416, compensator, vertical grip, tactical stock. Wall sprays at 10 / 25 / 50 m. Then ranked.
Weeks 3 to 4: add the extra inputs you paid for. Peek + fire. Crouch + spray. Nade without dropping camera.
Week 1 feels worse. Week 2 you get old scores back. Weeks 3 to 8 close fights start paying the extra fingers. Month 2 the grip stops asking for attention.
A cleaner iron-sight skin helps more than another 2% on Red Dot. Elite Royale Pass still refunds UC at Level 100, so the pass is the first buy. Top up PUBG UC with the 10-digit Player ID. No password.
Troubleshooting
Symptom | Fix |
|---|
120 for 5 minutes, then ~30 | Screen Recording on, or Limit Frame Rate toggle. |
Ultra Extreme missing | Graphics must be Smooth. Client on 4.5+. Device on the 120 list. |
Input feels heavy | Reduce Motion Off. Background App Refresh Off. Focus On. |
Chassis too hot | Unplug. Lift the back. Lock 90 FPS. Take a map off. |
Accidental Ninja Run | Move the 4.5 buttons to center. In-match hold-to-edit. |
Gyro over-flicks | Cut close-range gyro 10%. Confirm Scope On. Recalibrate. |
Imported HUD feels tiny | Fire 130 to 150%. Gaps 20 to 25%. |
FAQ
What is the best sensitivity for PUBG Mobile on iPad Pro M4?
Start Red Dot ADS at 50 to 65%, 4x at 18 to 26%, and close-range gyro at 220 to 260% on Scope On. Cut 15 to 20 percent versus a phone table. Spray M416 at 25 m and move one slider by 5 percent.
How do you set up a 6-finger layout in PUBG Mobile?
Settings > Controls > Customize > Layout Management > Search Method. Paste6960-4887-1407-8797-709. Put fire under the right index, ADS under the left index, leans under the middle fingers, crouch under the right ring. Fire at 130 to 150 percent.
Is iPad Pro M4 good for PUBG Mobile in 2026?
Yes. M4 is still on the 120 FPS list and the 11-inch or 13-inch panel fits 6-finger. M5 is the current Apple flagship. Both need Smooth + Ultra Extreme, and both can hit the ProMotion 5-minute drop.
What graphics should I use for 120 FPS on iPad Pro?
Smooth + Ultra Extreme. HD/HDR tops out at 90. Ultra HDR tops out at 60. Anti-aliasing off. Shadows off. Auto-Adjust off.
How long does a 6-finger layout take?
Comfortable finger rest in 1 to 2 weeks. Multi-finger sprays in 3 to 4. Ranked consistency in 5 to 8. Daily 20 to 30 minutes in TDM or Training Ground. A bad week 1 is the grip.
Should I use gyroscope with 6-finger on iPad?
Yes. Scope On at 220 to 260% close range for week 1. Always On after the dummy spray holds. The extra tilt is the recoil control your thumbs no longer have time for.
Conclusion
PUBG Mobile on iPad Pro M4 in August 2026 is Smooth + Ultra Extreme, a tablet 6-finger HUD, and gyro you cut for the heavier glass. Import6960-4887-1407-8797-709, park the 4.5 buttons, then fix the 5-minute 120-to-30 drop with Screen Recording or the Limit Frame Rate toggle. This URL stays put when the next client lands. When the Royale Pass or a cleaner sight is the upgrade, top up PUBG Mobile UC with Player ID.
