OpenGL ES

ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET uses OpenGL ES technology on Android to render 2D map views and 3D scene views. Rendering in a map view uses OpenGL ES 3.0 or above if available on the device. Otherwise it uses OpenGL ES 2.0 or above. Rendering in a scene view requires OpenGL ES 3.2.

You may need to configure graphics acceleration when using an Android emulator. For more information, see the document Configure graphics acceleration.
