If you're curious about whether your Android phone has ARCore support, you can click on this link and scroll down toward the Device list. The list shows that all Pixel models from the first-generation units to the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro have ARCore support.

There is a certification process, according to Google, which the company says is important because the company wants Android users to have a good experience with developers' AR apps. Google says, "To certify each device, we check the quality of the camera, motion sensors, and the design architecture to ensure it performs as expected. Also, the device needs to have a powerful enough CPU that integrates with the hardware design to ensure good performance and effective real-time calculations."

Google adds, "We are constantly working with manufacturers to make sure their hardware and designs meet these requirements. At the same time, we are working internally to make sure ARCore integrates well with every model we certify to provide good experiences for users."
