Will ARCore run on my Nexus 6P?
The Google doc indicates it'll run on Android N phones but then states the SDK preview is more limited:
ARCore is designed to work on a wide variety of qualified Android phones running N and later. During the SDK preview, ARCore supports the following devices:
- Google Pixel and Pixel XL
- Samsung Galaxy S8 (SM-G950U, SM-G950N, SM-G950FD, SM-G950FD, SM-G950W, SM-G950U1)
On
ARCore doesn't work with Nexus 6P. If you want to get AR on 6P and older devices, there are kits like 8th wall XR or you can try Vuforia.
On
There is an modified arcore client library on github:
Google ARCore for "unsupported" Android devices
Replace the original arcore client library with the modified one in your project and it should work on your Nexus 6P or any other phone. Tried it by myself on my Nexus 6P, but there's some lag and other problems.
On
Current version of ARCore is compatible and available on Nexus 6p. I have installed it on my Nexus 6p from Play Store and it's working well.

Updated
Now Nexus 6P also supported. Please refer the links for supported device list https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices
No, it won't be running on Nexus 6P. As they stated SDK preview will be limited to devices given in the docs. Let's hope they will add more supporting devices in coming days.
