Google, in a post on the Android Developers Blog, confirms that the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are the first Android handsets to support only 64-bit apps.
are the first Android handsets that support only 64-bit apps. With these phones, the operating system no longer supports 32-bit apps. 64-bit apps run faster because they access instructions that 32-bit apps can't. And Google also points out that when working with 64-bit apps, newer CPUs can deliver up to 25% better performance.
Google tells us that removing support for 32-bit apps will also save memory because it saves as much as 150MB of RAM which the operating system used even when it wasn't running 32-bit apps.
