Many new games and applications have support for 15-bit and 16-bits per pixel high color modes. If you wish to support these modes, don’t make the mistake of assuming that all devices will support 16-bit high color modes, or that all devices will support 15-bit high color modes. There are devices in the field that support only 15-bit modes, and there are also devices in the field that support only 16-bit modes. Hence it is of vital importance that your application code support both of these color depths to ensure maximum compatibility.
