HR displays are a gimmick anyway. I'm satisfied with 60 hz. 5G is superflous anyway as well. Won't be fully implemented until 2023..

        AnonD-923722, 12 Oct 2020Not all people wants an phone at the size of King Kong like you. King Kongs you know. I just find it funny that other brands out there have very similar phones sizes yet in terms of battery endurance, there is such a difference. Why do Apple like to rip their fans off for? - Before you say I'm an Apple hater, I'm not. I own their tablets which are actually better than other brands but when it comes to phones, they are honestly c@ap. Their tablets are actually very impressive.

          Shoud've gone with 120 hz IMO, as 5G is only available in certain regions worldwide yet

                Tchtech, 12 Oct 2020Lol.. What a excuse 😁😁U too. What a complain when High Refresh Rates matters less than 5G in the future. You inly see it when you loom for it. Just like 1080p and 1440p difference.

                    Good choice, 120hz screen novelty fades away very fast. I just bought computer screen with 144hz. And it was great for first two days. I thought after i go to work to use my regular 60hz screen that i won't like it, but no any noticable difference among these. Eyes get used to things very fast.

                    Same when i used my iPad Pro 120hz screen for two years and then i had to live 2 weeks with my iPad Air. First day it felt bad compared to my Pro screen, but after using it no problem to use that on when i get back to my Pro, the difference wasn't very noticable anymore, because my eyes got used to both.

                    Kind a same when you buy curved screen, you see the big curve and after week or two it's just regular screen and you don't see the curve anymore.

                    It's interesting to see how important the faster framerate suddenly is for android users. When iPad have had that for few years already it hasn't been any problem for android boys that almost all tablets have 60hz screen and still are. It all changed only because iPhone doesn't have it. Everything what iPhone doesn't have suddenly becomes most important thing man have ever created.

                      Anonymous, 12 Oct 2020And the difference between 5g and 4g is more significant??Yes, more noticeable than 60hz and 120hz. Even people in T Mobile don't notice the difference. Probably for people like you, specs geeks and marketing believer, would bag a lot about High Refresh Rate. In reality, all they do is make things smoother (not faster), and consumes twice the energy and make the processor throttle. I have a proof for it. I asked a lot of people to see the difference of an S20 120hz and 60hz and all they say it was just a bit smoother and says it matters very less. It is just like the difference of 1080p and 1440p. Correct me if i'm wrong.

It isn't worth it. 5G is more noticeable to effect your daily lives in the future than 120hz displays.

                            But why can't they just up their battery capacity then and still have both? - Or is this another way of making more money but getting Apple fans to but 5G first and then 120Hz later as an 'iPhone upgrade' 🙄

                              Lol major impact on endurance
                              Even S20 FE 5G (Snapdragon 865) has an overall endurance rating of 110h with the display set at 120hz.
                              RIP iphone user, still stuck with 60hz.

                                Would be interesting to know if 90Hz would have been a sensible compromise.

                                    Well they know that technology for batteries larger than 4000mah exists 4 years now right?

                                      120hz definitely worth it especially when other phones have 144hz and 160hz Apple is always behind in everything they do making useless excuses.
