We have a thread for stupid questions. You've already established a downside and your attitude about the upside in your original post so why even go through with asking the question?

Just changed mine to this. I had it at minimum of 60 and peak of 120. I don't really know when it is at 120 or 60 based on that.

Well as far as 48 goes I've been using it in the time it took to screenshot that image, edit it, and now you're this out. It's mildly jarring but honestly probably won't notice it by tomorrow. It was the same when I changed the colors from vibrant to natural.

Trying to eek out a bit more time to scroll through tiktoks?
>>
only if you're a chronic phone user that does everything on their phone
if you just use it for the occasional reading/web browsing then 60hz is more than enough

No I just wanted to try it out since op said it was a gimmick.

Honestly, as for myself when I got a 144hz monitor there was an initial "wow smooth" and then I pretty much stopped noticing forever. I even hopped between a 60hz laptop and the 144hz monitor often and never had any kind of feeling of "ewww it's so slow I can't use this I'm too use to 144hz" that people claim. Really never noticed.

Now hopping between 1440p on the monitor and 1600 x 900 laptop resolution, THAT is what I noticed heavily each time I switched

maybe your brain is so slow you can barely process what your eyes are seeing or something

Humans can't see more than 24 fps anyway.

I make my display update at 24hz and it's very kino and I save a ton of battery.

Refresh rate has no impact on battery life.
The illumination of the pixels (OLED) or backlight (LCD) is the real contributor and is responsible for 99% of the consumption.
>>
>>107127719
I heavily customized my phone to the point where nothing has animations.
Why would I care about higher refresh rates? Everything is instant...

>Refresh rate has no impact on battery life.
Yes, it does.
More shit to render = more power used.
>>
mine does 1-120hz and i have no idea what the difference is i still have to charge it every day

Apparently, when you waste a great chunk of your life doom scrolling, it makes a huge difference.
>>
>>107132293

>>
>>107132314

I don't really have social media.
Sometimes I look at paintings on Pinterest, but mostly I use my phone for WhatsApp.

The only video games I ever enjoyed were online MMORPGs. I can't enjoy something that is made just to waste your time and drain your wallet in the process.
