But there is a catch, the non-Samsung compatible smartphones need to wait for a confirmation from Epic Games to play the game. Epic games it taking a long time to release the beta to all the compatible smartphones. So, a user on XDA developers has modified the apk and got the game before the actual launch.
The modified apk skips the device and CPU check and spoofs your phone to be Galaxy Note 9. This apk also skips the RAM check which makes it possible to play this game of smartphones with less RAM. But playing it on smartphones with less than 4GB RAM will create random crashes and smartphone to heat up pretty quickly.
