Playing games on your phone is great, but it can be a nightmare for your data plan. If you're a fan of PUBG Mobile, you've probably wondered how much data it's eating up. Nobody wants a surprise on their phone bill at the end of the month.

On average, PUBG Mobile uses between 20MB and 50MB of data per hour. However, this can change depending on a few things, like your graphics settings and how long you play for. If you crank up the graphics to the highest setting, you could see that number jump to over 100MB per hour.

What Affects Data Usage?

Several things can affect how much data PUBG Mobile uses. Here are the main ones:

• Graphics Quality: Higher graphics mean more data is being sent and received. If you're on a limited data plan, try turning down the graphics.
• Game Mode: A shorter game in Arcade mode will use less data than a full-length Classic match.
• Voice Chat: Talking to your teammates uses extra data. I remember playing with my friends for a few hours with voice chat on and my data usage was way higher than usual. I had to be more careful after that.
• Updates: Downloading updates for the game can use a lot of data. It's always best to do this when you're connected to Wi-Fi.

One time, I was on a long bus trip and decided to play some PUBG Mobile to pass the time. I was so into the game that I didn't realize how much data I was using. Before I knew it, I got a message from my mobile provider saying I'd used up all my data for the month! It was a long, boring rest of the trip. I definitely learned my lesson that day.

How to Reduce Data Usage

If you want to play PUBG Mobile without worrying about your data, here are a few tips:

• Play on Wi-Fi: This is the easiest way to save your mobile data.
• Lower Your Graphics: You don't always need to play on the highest settings. Lowering the graphics can make a big difference.
• Turn Off Voice Chat: If you're not playing with friends, you probably don't need voice chat on.
• Monitor Your Usage: Keep an eye on how much data you're using. Most phones have a data usage monitor in the settings.

For those who enjoy making in-app purchases to enhance their gameplay, consider using Playstorm. On Playstorm, you can play free games and earn rewards like Google Play and Apple App Store gift cards. These can then be used to buy in-game items in PUBG Mobile without spending your own money.
