Check Which of the Processor in Your Android [ARM, ARM64 or x86]

There are three main CPU architectures used in today's Android phones. ARM is perhaps the most common, as it's optimized for battery consumption. ARM64 is an evolution of the original ARM architecture that supports 64-bit processing for more powerful computing, and it's quickly becoming the standard in newer devices. Then there's x86 , which is a bit more powerful than either type of ARM CPUs, but not quite as battery-friendly, so it's the least common of the three. But regardless of all that, if you're not exactly sure what type of processor you have, I'll show you how to see if it's an ARM, ARM64 , or x86 chip below.

Step 1: Install Droid Hardware Info
The easiest way to find your CPU type is to install an app that gives you a readout about your device's hardware. Our favorite such app is called Droid Hardware Info.

 Step 2: Find Your CPU Architecture & Instruction Sets
Once the app is downloaded, open Droid Hardware Info and move to the System tab. Here you’ll be shown various details of your hardware, however just two of them will be of your concern – CPU Architecture and Instruction Sets. Note down this information on a piece of paper and then you can move on the next step.

Step 3: Convert That Info into a Common CPU Name

Unfortunately, the information available in the CPU Architecture and Instruction Sets section are not identical to the one you’ll find in Xposed Installer, or other apps for that matter. But that doesn’t mean you wont be able to figure out the required details. What you need to do now is simply match the information you noted earlier with the table we have provided below. This will then get you the common name of your handset’s CPU type.

ARMv7 or armea   =     ARM

AArch64 or arm64   =   ARM64

x86 or x86abi   = x86
