iPhone 12 to Come with 120Hz Display: Report

Oct. 30, 2019



Apple’s current iPhone 11 lineup comes with 60Hz displays, which has been the de facto standard of the smartphone industry over the years, although various Android vendors have recently started using 90Hz and 120Hz panels on their phones as a differentiating factor. High-refresh-rate panels are believed to enhance the user experience by improving touch responsiveness and making the scrolling and swiping feel more fluid. They also make for a smoother gaming experience.

In case you’re wondering, multiple Android vendors have started shipping their phones with either 90Hz or 120Hz screens over the past couple of years. While the Google Pixel 4 lineup and the OnePlus 7 Pro are among some of the devices to ship with 90Hz displays, the Asus ROG Phone 2 is one of the first mainstream phonesto offer a 120Hz panel. Samsung is also planning to use a 120Hz panel for its Galaxy S11 next year, if recent leaks are to be believed.
