    iPhone 16/Plus iPhone 16 Plus, 60hz poor performance planned on Apple's end?

    So here is the background: Went from a 120hz iPhone 14 Pro Max to the new 16 Plus. I knew I was notice and that's that. However, I also have a Pixel 8a for work - which has a 120hz display and I turned it off to 60hz to confirm a theory. The 16 is incredibly smooth at times, but it seems like...

    iPhone 15 Pro 120 hz vs 60hz

    is it just me that doesn't notice a real difference between the 60hz refreshing rate and the 120hz? I upgraded from a iPhone 14 to iPhone 15pro and don't notice the difference. I use an iPhone 12 at work and can't see the difference. I don't use my phone for gaming og streaming and I use...

    MBP 16 M3 Max - stuttery/low fps animations?

    Hi everyone, I've been away from Apple for well over 15 years. I've decided now was the right time to give it another go as I've read as much as possible about Apple's silicon etc. I just wanted to ask if this is the expected experience everyone else is getting. I got a new 16" m3 max 14core...

    MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro/Max/Ultra no HDMI 2.1 but...

    I like to ask and discuss where on the MacBook Pro M1 series are limited to HDMI 2.0. I am quite puzzled by the fact that this is not an M1 CPU/GPU bandwidth limitation? My MacBook Pro M1 Pro is capable of running 4K at 120Hz/144Hz(DSC) with the following setup: - USB-C to USB-C Monitor Alt-DP...

So...

    Can the Mac-studio ultra support a 4k 120hz tv ?

    I have a tv with 4k 120hz through hdmi 2.1 do you think it will be possible to use two 4.0 thunderbolt ports on the Mac studio and somehow end up with 2.1 hdmi connected to the tv in order to run 4k at 120hz?

    iPhone 13 Pro ProMotion too aggressive with variable refresh rate?

    Does anyone else feel that iOS is dipping the refresh rate down too often with ProMotion? ProMotion, like 120hz on other phones, varies the refresh rate to save battery when fast refresh rates are not needed. But, too often, I am noticing the screen dip down to lower refresh rates during fast...

    Any way to force 120hz on MacBook Pro? And any way to check current refresh rate?

    Hi, I had a couple of questions about the ProMotion 120hz displays. Can I force or ensure that the screen is 120hz (not adaptive)? I need this because the MacBook isn't adaptively ramping up to 120hz yet when they should be (more like 80hz or so). so I need to wait for Apple to adjust it. Is...

    arm macs.when would you expect pro motion @120hz to come on macs?

    given that adaptative rr is already implemented on ipad and iphones with a1x chips ,in how long do you guys think we should expect to see 120hz w/ promotion to come on macs ? i assume they'll come to the pros first ,tho im almost sure it wont be that year..perhaps next year ?

    iPhone 13 Pro Max Touch sampling rate on the Pro models?

    Have the Touch sampling rate been increased with the new 120Hz screens? I’ve seen no one mention it. Newer phones from Samsung and Xiaomi are going “up to” 480Hz.

    iPhone 13 Pro 120Hz LTPO Baby’s Bottom

    I’ve been waiting what feels like forever for a 120Hz AMOLED iPhone and at long last it’s here! I even bought a Galaxy S20 just to try 120Hz AMOLED and never put my SIM card in it haha. AMOLED’s response time is MUCH faster than LCD’s so you can’t compare 120Hz on the iPad’s to this. This is on...

    iPhone 13 IPhone 13 120hz

    Why jump in the band wagon with this 120hz screens? It makes perfect sense for the Fold with larger screens, I don’t know about iPhones if you really can tell. What developers can do is to stop making “mobile games” just make a full game that’s taylor’d to that system. When I see the word mobile...

    120 hz m1x macbook pro??

    Hi everyone! So with the rumor of the new macbook pros getting major display updates, do you think this will include a 120Hz display. I know that the new Ipad pros received the mini-led upgrade and I am kind of hoping that that can trickle up to the MacBook pros. Are there any credible rumors or...

    M1 Mac Mini @ 120hz ?

    Hi, I have seen people stating somewhere on Reddit that it is possible to run M1 Mac Mini at 120hz with the LG OLED TV even though it uses HDMI 2.0 only. I have tried multiple HDMI cables already, and USB-C to HDMI 2.1 adapters. Is there any way to get the 120hz running ? TV: LG OLED55CX5LB...

    Why is getting 4K YCbCr444 @ even 60Hz so difficult?

    A lot of discussion exists on getting 4K @ 60 or 120Hz with 10-bit HDR and 4:4:4 chroma subsampling (YCbCr444) with an external monitor, but seemingly mostly on the M1 forums. And even then there's little discussion about how to actually get it to work beyond the discussion of the theoretical...

    Hello, Does anyone have any experience with plugging a 120 or 144hz monitor to an iMac via BootCamp? Is there something I need to know before buying one (adapters, conditions, etc...) It will be used mostly (if not only) via BootCamp for gaming. My iMac specs are; iMac 2019 Late 2019 i9...
