Pings Issue
Idk what happened to the game or servers or if it's my device's fault, I'm having high pings every time I try to play no matter the time, I play on middle east server and sometimes I get 20 ms and most of the times have high ping drops like from 20 ms to 300+ ms just like that which makes the game difficult or more like impossible to play, it couldn't be my wifi's fault cause on my other device which runs on the same wifi I get 20ms straight every time.
My device: Xiaomi Poco F3 which I've ms issues on.
My Other device: IPhone 14 Pro Max which gets 20 ms continuous

I will be off for tonight, so i'll leave you with some things you can try to help identify the issue. Try playing with wifi only, again with data only, and once more with both wifi and data on, to see if its wifi or data (or a combination of the two) causing the ping spikes. If it's only wifi causing the spikes, then you can try disconnecting any bluetooth devices (like a headset/earpods), which would surprisingly interfere with a wifi connection in phones (if this actually is the case, you'll n...

@Moderator bro tf is this support ???????
The problem with ping issues is it's very difficult to diagnose and troubleshoot.
Both phones you mentioned have different hardware and software that handles wifi, so they'll generally vary in connection quality (even if it's subtle). Considering the Iphone's connection is fine, it can't be an issue with the servers, and this also makes your router less suspect (but could still be a factor).
So it boils down to your Xiaomi Poco F3. If you have this problem on other wifi connections, than it's likely your phone (it's possible they could have pushed a firmware update that messed some things up). If you don't have the problem on other wifi's, than it could be your phone having an issue specifically with your router (if you have an Apple router than it will work better with the iphone because they're updated together, or if you have a mesh/point router system your ping could be spiking because your phone keeps swapping between 2 points).
Tons of factors to consider, very difficult for a 3rd party to troubleshoot.
no my Xiaomi works perfectly on other networks but still does pings Issue on every network I connect, I'm concerned where's the problem arising considering Xiaomi Poco F3 is made in collaboration with pubg mobile, the main reason I bought it
Then by process of elimination, based on the information you've given, the issue likely stems from your phone. Have you tried playing on a mobile data connection to see if it also gets these ping spikes?

If it's only wifi causing the spikes, then you can try disconnecting any bluetooth devices (like a headset/earpods), which would surprisingly interfere with a wifi connection in phones (if this actually is the case, you'll need to switch to a 5ghz wifi connection instead of 2.4ghz, or you'll need to stop using a bluetooth device). There is also always the possibility that an update to your phone had negative effects on your phone in relation to wifi (assuming it wasn't like this right out of the box).
yeah it works fine with it
I'll try disconnecting my ear pods and see, no it has always been this way like for a month or two it gives pings issues, then for 10 days it works perfectly 20 ms. if it was my internet's fault, I wouldn't be getting 20ms stable on the iPhone so idk... Are there any specific settings to get good pings? like I've seen some YouTube videos telling to change the DNS and stuff like that.
@Hex okay so I had a software update, which I downloaded and afterwards the game is running pretty stable on 20-40ms without major drops, so ig I'm gonna observe it for a while and then see
Let me know if the issue was resolved so I can let others know with the same issue how to help it.
alright give me a day
to observe
