‍Have you ever wondered how pro-PUBG Mobile players pull off the most insane flicks, get laser-precise with their shots, and display some god-tier tracking? If your guess is fast fingers and reflexes, that’s a great answer, but that’s not really it. It’s actually the gyroscope.

‍

And if you're not using the gyroscope, you're leaving a huge advantage on the table. Gyro aiming gives you the precision that thumb or claw players can't match, making every shot smoother and every spray deadlier. But it takes skill. Using the gyroscope effectively takes practice, as well as the right settings and key techniques.

‍

In this quick guide, we’ll explain everything you need to know, from sensitivity settings to training drills, so you can quickly start landing crisp headshots.

‍

But first, why should you switch to a gyroscope on PUBG Mobile?
‍

‍

There’s not much to say about the ‘why’ because it’s pretty simple: faster, smoother aim. Gyro aiming lets you fine-tune your crosshair movement by tilting your device instead of dragging your thumb across the screen. This means:
‍

• Faster target acquisition: With the gyroscope, you react to enemies quicker, especially in close-range fights.
  ‍
• More precise recoil control: The gyroscope helps you smooth out your sprays without relying on your fingers, especially with weapons like the M416 (HK416) or the AKM.
  ‍
• Better tracking for moving targets: The gyroscope helps you stay focused on your opponents without requiring exaggerated swipes.
  ‍

Once you get used to it, gyro aiming starts to feel like an extension of your reflexes. It’s literally a game-changer, and that’s why so many pros swear by it.
‍

Best Sensitivity Settings for Gyro Aiming

As with all sensitivity settings for each use case, there’s no universal “best” setting, as your device and the way you play actually determine that. But the following settings are a good place to start, and you can adjust them based on your comfort level:
‍
‍

Camera Sensitivity (Gyroscope)

• 3rd Person No Scope: 400%
  ‍
• 1st Person No Scope: 400%
  ‍
• Red Dot, Holographic, Aim Assist: 400%
  ‍
• 2x Scope: 400%
  ‍
• 3x Scope: 250-300%
  ‍
• 4x Scope: 200%
  ‍
• 6x Scope: 170%
  ‍
• 8x Scope: 55-70%
  ‍
  ‍

ADS Sensitivity (Gyroscope) (For Recoil Control)

• 3rd Person No Scope: 400%
  ‍
• 1st Person No Scope: 400%
  ‍
• Red Dot, Holographic, Aim Assist: 375%
  ‍
• 2x Scope: 350%
  ‍
• 3x Scope: 260%
  ‍
• 4x Scope: 150%
  ‍
• 6x Scope: 195%
  ‍
• 8x Scope: 55-70%
  ‍

Higher sensitivity allows for faster adjustments, but lower it slightly if you’re overshooting targets. Finding your perfect balance takes trial and error, and Training Grounds is the perfect place to test these settings.
‍

Common Mistakes When First Using Gyroscope (And How To Fix Them)

While practice does indeed make perfect, a lot of new gyro players still struggle for several reasons. Here’s how to make sure you beat the odds:
‍

• Mistake 1: Relying too much on wrist movement: The simple solution is using your whole arm for better control. Wrist-only movements limit the precision and can make your aim shaky.
  ‍

• Mistake 2: Sensitivity set too low: Increase your gyro sensitivity for faster, more responsive aim adjustments. If it initially feels too fast, gradually lower it until you find the sweet spot.
  ‍

• Mistake 3: Forgetting to disable “Auto-rotate screen”: Turn off auto-rotate in your device settings. This prevents annoying screen flips when you’re making quick movements.
  ‍

• Mistake 4: Not practising long enough: We know you’re eager to get into the game and prove something, but give yourself at least a week to adjust. Gyro aiming generally tends to feel awkward at first, but you become used to it over time. That’s the only way your aim will improve drastically.
  ‍

Best Drills & Warm-Ups for Faster Gyro Response
‍

Speaking of practice, if you want to get your gyro aim snappier, then try these warm-ups before each session:
‍

• Hipfire tracking drill: In the training room, follow a moving target using only gyroscopes. This helps you develop a smoother aim.
  ‍
• Spray control test: Fire a full mag at a wall while you use slight tilts to keep the spray steady.
  ‍
• Sniper flick shots: Practice flicking to targets with the 8x scope to improve your reflexes for long-range fights.
  ‍

Final Thoughts

Becoming a master of the gyroscope in PUBG Mobile is certainly no walk in the park, and it will definitely not happen overnight. But once you get the hang of it, your aim will be faster, your tracking smoother, and your recoil control sharper. Stick with it, and you’ll have a serious edge over the competition.
