Device Classification

The Foundation library evaluates the hardware capabilities of Web Browsers, Smart TVs, and Gaming Consoles, and classifies each device into one of three performance tiers: HIGH_END, MID_RANGE, or LOW_END, based on key hardware specifications.

Get Device Classification

To retrieve the device's classification, use the DevicePerformanceClassifier utility from Foundation library,

await flFoundation.DevicePerformanceClassifier.getDeviceCapabilities()

It will provide DeviceCapability as

Classification	Detail
HIGH_END	Excellent performance High-end models
MID_RANGE	Good performance Mid-range models
LOW_END	Entry-level models with modest processors and others

Additionally, the platformClient also exposes APIs to access deviceCapability information.

  const platformClient = flPlatformAuthorizer.createPlatformClient(
    deviceId,
    deviceName,
  );

  platformClient.deviceCapability;

The Web platform uses the following capability metrics to classify devices:

Gaming consoles

We have mapped Gaming Consoles to HIGH_END category as they are powerful devices with high processing power and memory. (e.g., PS5, PS4, Xbox Series)
