Resolution Note:
In the Editor the ETC2 fallback path is used, so the textures looks similar to what you would see on a GLES2 device. This behavior is intentional.
16bit RGBA (R4G4B4A4) is not suitable for textures with gradients.
The special ETC2 fallback modes (16bit, 32bit-half-res) are only supported on Android, so the textures will look different on iOS.
