Description

Description

The Compute Shaders example doesn’t run correctly on my Samsung S25 when using the Samsung Internet browser. It does work in Google Chrome, so the issue appears to be browser-specific rather than device-related.

Device: Samsung S25 SM-S931B
Browser: Samsung Internet 29.0.0.59
OS: Android 16.0.0

Research direction

Start with the linked Compute Shaders particles example and reproduce the failure on Samsung Internet 29.0.0.59 using the reported Samsung S25 and Android 16. Compare its behavior with Google Chrome to narrow down the browser-specific issue. Done means the example runs correctly in Samsung Internet without regressing Chrome behavior.
