Submachine guns (SMGs) in PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds: Mobile are known for their impressive rate-of-fire, low recoil, and light weight that provides for easy handling and movement. They deal less damage per hit as compared to Assault Rifles (AR) but have a faster spray. In this tier list, we will learn about the five best SMGs in PUBG Mobile based on their damage, popularity, and stability.

The Best SMGs In PUBG Mobile
Submachine guns in PUBG Mobile are effective in close-quarters combat. All SMGs have an Auto and a Single shot mode but the latter is rarely used for sniping long-range targets. Such guns do not possess a great deal of damage so it is better to equip a sniper for distant enemies, allowing them little chance to escape and regroup.
Below are the five best SMGs in PUBG Mobile:-
1. UMP45
UMP45 is a fan-favorite SMG that is effective not only in close quarters but also in long-distance shots. Dealing 41 base damage, its fast reload and predictable vertical recoil make it highly effective against AR users. Players can equip 4X or 6X Scope and deal ‘burst’ damage to enemies at long range while an extended magazine can increase its capacity to twenty-five .45 ACP rounds.
2. Micro UZI
Micro UZI relies on its sheer speed to eliminate opponents rather than raw power. Dealing 26 base damage per hit, it is one of the best SMGs in PUBG Mobile because it can unload an entire magazine of 25 bullets in two seconds, taking approximately 0.0048 seconds between shots. UZI’s bullet showers can make the opponents panic but it is ineffective in long-range combat.

3. Thompson
The addition of a scope in Thompson SMG, aka the Tommy Gun, has further increased its effectiveness in all maps. Possessing a horizontal recoil and a maximum ammo capacity of 50, Thompson can wipe out entire squads with its sprays that deal 40 damage per hit. Players can attach a Holographic Sight or Red Dot to further improve its accuracy and a Vertical Foregrip to ease its shake patterns.
4. PP-19 Bizon
Exclusive to Erangel and Vikendi, PP-19 Bizon has gotten a series of buffs since its release. It is now one of the best SMGs in PUBG Mobile, relatively better than Thompson, because of its max ammo of 53, fast reload timing, and lower time between two shots. Bizon deals 36 damage per hit after Update 13.1 and is capable of wiping entire squads.
5. Vector
Vector has been one of the best SMGs in PUBG Mobile since its debut. Although ineffective without an extended magazine, it is second to UZI in its rate of fire, taking 0.0055 seconds between consecutive shots, and deals an impressive 31 damage per hit. It is most useful in close to mid-range combat but experienced Vector players can control its low recoil to shower pellets on long-range enemies as well.
