Apple is probably going to say that their 60hz looks like the standard 120hz

DarlingYext, 20 Nov 2023It's not a non-issue when everyone else has surpassed ... moreYeah your not running Apple though are you. A company that continues to see strong sales performance of its main iPhone line despite lacking a HRR display.
And regardless of most of the commenters treating Android like some monolithic entity, fact is Android is a highly competitive battlefield in itself, and it's not iPhones that most Android oem's are treating as the enemy but each other. Drawing customers away from Apple is the dream, drawing them away from competing Android brands is the target.
That is why you see the proliferation of new tech (proven and otherwise) within the Android market. Apple don't have that issue, you want to use an iPhone, then they are the only game in town.
This affords them a much wider degree of flexibility than Android oem's who can very quickly get lost in a crowded market without constantly trying to one up each other. And Apple play that advantage very well.
Does it p*ss of the commenters on sites like this (again most of which don't like the iPhone, and would quickly find some other point of contention anyhow) that the main iPhone line is still at 60Hz? Sure seems to. But does it seem to be having some major impact on sales of the main iPhone line? Not really.I
Like I said, if I were in a position to advise Apple, then I would suggest moving the iPhone higher refresh displays as a whole, mostly just for the perceived spec parity gain. But when somebody like Tim Cook turns around and says 'yeah but do we really need to right now, things still seem to be going ok as they are'...well, then I'd have a hard time arguing against it.

I totally agree that a 800$ phone with 60 Hz in 2024 comes from Apple's greed and monopoly for IOS devices, but here's the thing: Apple makes products for common People, not tech geeks. My mom and me have iPhones, 13 and 13 Pro respectively, and I showed hrr ProMotion, all she said was "Well, seems smoother". But that's not the reason for most people to ditch 15 and go for 15 Pro!
My dad has a Pixel 6 Pro, a flagship Android same age as my 13 Pro. In just two years it already has micro-freezes and stutters here and there, I would rather go with a simple 13/14/15 than get an Android device.
My 2yo 13 Pro works like out of the box, it's the most reliable software plus ecosystem that iPhone users choose, not Hz or hundreds gigs of RAM.

i've tried this 120hz on few phones and owned two, a redmi note 10pro and realme 10pro+, both have flagship like screens, tried staying on 120hz and going back to 60hz just to see what's the fuss about those saying "once you go black, you never go back" type of crap about the refresh rate, and it's utter crap, you easily adapt to it, the one place where it's noticeable, is on laptops/desktop screens, cause the mouse cursor feels very slow on 60hz compared to 120hz.

DaFink, 20 Nov 2023Annnnnd ..... que a ton of complaints, mostly by those who ... moreIt's not a non-issue when everyone else has surpassed them, when it comes to refresh rate, both at the same price and below as well, and I don't think giving less for the same/more money should be acceptable by any means.

Annnnnd ..... que a ton of complaints, mostly by those who wouldn't buy an iPhone at any price, even if it had 480hz display!
I wouldn't advise Apple stay at 60hz, more for the public perception than any meaningful impact on usability, but this non issue gets way overblown.

Apple are so confused. Making a pro model for people who wants the pro maxes in a smaller device, now their making it bigger same with the pro max, size might change but actual dimensions stays the same.

60Hz in 2024? Come on! At this point, even 90 would be a nice upgrade. Although I live in the Android realm, I cannot wait for the day iPhones finally catch up to the ENTRY LEVEL ANDROIDS!

Anonymous, 20 Nov 2023Only if you don't know what a high refresh rate looks ... moreCompare Galaxy A14's high refresh screen with iPhone's 60Hz.
Do you see the difference?
I can.
IPhone feels much smoother and it's consistent.
A14 has a much slower hardware, so what's the use of higher refresh rate on a more affordable phone?
I am saying this because many people saying they can find 120Hz even in Android phones selling for 90$. Sure, but what is the point of it? Just to brag in front of Apple "sheeps" who are still on 60Hz and buying phones for 999 bucks? Okay...
Fyi: i have a Pixel 8 Pro with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate now and before that one I was happy with using OnePlus 7 Pro for almost 4 years with its 90Hz, so both was with high refresh screens. Did I use it?
Just for a short time as it has an impact on the battery life and for me personally battery is more important then smooooooth scrolling, but thats just me.
I tend to have my phones for longer so yeah.. i have high refresh rate on my screen, but just choose not to use it on my 999 bucks phone.
Cheers

The sheer ignorance shown by Apple users is astonishing. Unless Apple cuts the price drastically this is straight up unacceptable. Also no, 120 Hertz displays don't draw that much more battery anymore even without LTPO, not that it matters cause you guys could simply choose to use 60 Hertz instead of 120 Hertz anyways.

I honestly don't think this is such a big deal...
But yeah, those prices should go down, considering the volume of screens they order and all.

Anonymous, 20 Nov 2023If that's the case, you need to get your eyes checked ... moreThey’re actually getting away from the fact that people are buying the Pros just for the 120hz display when in reality they can’t tell the difference (apple even fakes a bit of its 120hz too)
As I said, 60hz iPhone = 90hz normal phone
