my phone has been running at 60hz for YEARS and I just now learned that I just had to enable a setting. Why wasn’t this enabled by default???

The first thing I always do is turn 120Hz off. The difference just isn’t meaningful enough to justify the extra battery drain. On a PC monitor sure, but on a phone I really don’t care if my feed scrolls a bit smoother.

Because using a phone with a 60hz refresh rate is disgusting
11 monthsI’ve never been over 60hz on a phone and my current “blissfully unaware of what I’m missing” state disagrees. Battery life over all. I think it still sucks we get Uber a days with of battery by default in phones still. I miss only having to charge like once a week.

Depends on your device and a bunch of other factors. If you are trying to maximize battery life you are generally better sticking to 60.
If you are consuming 120fps content or doing some kind of mobile gaming that actually supports it, you may benefit from 120.

Basic scrolling feels so much better. And I don’t think it really makes a huge difference for battery life, so I always leave if at 120.

If you’re not used to 120 Hz then with 60 Hz you don’t feel like you’re missing out
