The iPhone 12 is the best phone Apple made to date, and easily one of the last year’s highlights. It’s faster than all Android-based competitors, and it’s outselling similarly-priced devices significantly. Despite the great hardware and exemplary sales, the iPhone 12 lacks one feature that’s already considered mainstream on Android, a high refresh rate screen. Display supporting 90Hz and 120Hz refresh rates first arrived on Android gaming phones a few years ago before moving to regular flagships. Most of last year’s handsets came with 120Hz displays, and the same goes for their 2021 successors.
Apple introduced its own 120Hz ProMotion screen technology with the iPad Pro well before Android vendors started using 120Hz OLED screens, prompting speculation that the iPhone would be next. Reports last year said that Apple had been considering 120Hz displays for the iPhone 12. Apple reportedly canceled those plans over battery life concerns. The high refresh rate screen did impact the battery life of 2020 handsets, like the Galaxy S21.
The iPhone 13 is again rumored to feature 120Hz screens, thanks to a technology that Apple launched with the Apple Watch a few years ago. A new report says that it’s Samsung that will be the exclusive manufacturer of those LTPO screens.
