Arcore-android-sdk: Is the ARCore APK work with Nokia 7 plus?

[Thaina]

Actually I wish there would be a list of devices that ARCore APK could just run on. ARCore official support is too slow and cannot cope with newer devices launch in market

I have a plan to purchase Nokia 7 plus specifically but I also want to buy it to develop AR application. So if it may not support ARCore it would waste my money

So I want to make sure that at least I can do some AR development on it

For Nokia devices, ARCore is only currently supported on the 6.1 and 8 Sirocco.

Duplicate of #89

@inio I am not asking for official support. I just ask that is it able to run the sideloading APK. Which is not duplicate with #89

[inio]

We are not going to marginally enable devices through side-loading. The announced-but-unlaunched devices are a special case because we need to have calibrations present in the APK for when they launch.

Nokia 7 plus is going to get support for ARCore soon. Discussion link on Nokia community forum

Sorry, was moving a little too quick there. I'm not aware of any commitment from Google to support the Nokia 7 Plus. I would advise against buying a device for doing ARCore development until it either shows up on the supported device list or there's been a press release from the device manufacturer or Google announcing support. The above linked forum post doesn't seem super official.

@prateekkumarweb Yes, as @matemaciek mentioned, the Nokia 7+ is now a supported device with ARCore 1.3.
