Ever tried the Faithful Texture Pack for MCPE 1.21.113? If not, you definitely should! Faithful’s been around forever and it’s still one of the most downloaded texture packs for Minecraft PE. I’ve tried probably 50 different texture packs over the years and always end up coming back to Faithful.
The whole idea behind it is keeping Minecraft looking like Minecraft but higher resolution. Default textures are 16×16 pixels which looks pretty rough on modern phone screens. Faithful bumps that up to 32×32 or 64×64 depending which version you get. Everything’s sharper and cleaner but still recognizable.
What I like about Faithful is it doesn’t try to be realistic or change the art style completely. Some texture packs make stone look like actual photographs of rock or turn grass into these weird hyper-detailed textures. Looks cool in screenshots but feels wrong when you’re actually playing.
Why Players Love the Faithful Texture Pack
The biggest reason is it doesn’t change the game’s identity. You install it and everything just looks like a better version of vanilla Minecraft. No learning curve trying to figure out what blocks are because they got completely redesigned. Performance is solid across all devices. The 32×32 version runs on basically any phone that can run Minecraft PE. Even budget phones from a few years ago handle it fine. The 64×64 version is heavier but still way more optimized than photorealistic packs that murder your framerate.
It works with everything. Shaders, mods, other resource packs – Faithful plays nice with all of them. I run it with ESBE 2G shader and there’s no conflicts or weird visual glitches. Some texture packs break when you add shaders but Faithful’s stable. The attention to detail is really good for how subtle it is. Like you don’t notice it immediately but then you look at stone bricks and realize the texture has way more depth than vanilla. Or you see how much cleaner glass looks. Small improvements everywhere that add up.
Nostalgia factor matters too honestly. Faithful’s been THE texture pack for people who want higher res vanilla since like 2011 or whenever it came out. Anyone who’s played modded Minecraft probably used it at some point. It’s familiar and reliable.

Why Faithful Beats Other Texture Packs
I’ve tried dozens of texture packs, but I always come back to the Faithful Texture Pack for MCPE 1.21.113. Here’s why:

- Updates come quickly after new Minecraft versions

- It works on almost all devices that can run Minecraft PE
- The community is huge so you can find help if needed
The Faithful Texture Pack hits that sweet spot between vanilla Minecraft and completely different realistic texture packs.
Final Thoughts
Faithful’s one of those texture packs I recommend to literally everyone regardless of what kind of player you are. Building-focused? Makes your builds look cleaner. Survival player? Everything’s more visible and easier to identify. Playing casually? Doesn’t change anything about how you play.
I’ve had it installed on my phone for probably two years now and never felt the need to switch to something else. Tried other packs for variety but always go back. It just works and looks good without demanding anything from your device.
The fact it’s been consistently updated for over a decade says something. Most texture packs get abandoned after a year or two. Faithful’s still getting updates same-day or next-day when Minecraft updates drop. That reliability matters.
If you’ve never used a texture pack before, start with Faithful 32x. It’s the safest option that’ll work on any phone. See if you like playing with texture packs at all. If you do and want something more dramatic later you can try other packs. But Faithful’s a perfect introduction.
