So, 5G seems to be big in the galaxy far, far away as Google and Lucasfilm launch a The Mandalorian augmented reality experience on the 5G Pixel and other "select 5G Android" phones. But as Android Police reports, they could sideload the app on older, 4G-only handsets, and the experience still works. The experience is built on ArCore, so it will presumably work on phones that support that.

The Mandalorian AR Experience turns you into a bounty hunter following the trail of Mando and the Child. It will let you interact with characters and learn more about the Star Wars show's first season. You can even take the snowy scenes into your home and share these with others. 

As part of Star WarsMando Monday, Google even promises Pixel owners to "keep an eye out for additional exclusive content outside of the app as well."
