Apple could take a new step by generalizing 120 Hz screens to all iPhone 17 models, expected for next year.
All iPhone 17 models could benefit from an LTPO screen, offering a refresh rate of 120 Hz. Until now reserved for Pro models, this technology would offer a smoother user experience for all users of the Apple brand .
120 Hz screens for all iPhone 17 models?
According to a Korean media source ET NewsApple would be ready to integrate LTPO screens on all iPhone 17sand no longer only on its Pro models. This technology would allow users to benefit from a refresh rate of 120 Hzwhich Apple calls “ProMotion”, ideal for increased screen fluidity, both in games and for web browsing or social networks. A technology that is now found on almost all Android models, including some inexpensive smartphones around 200 euros.
The use of LTPO technology would also bring benefits in terms of energy consumption management. Unlike standard LTPS displays on traditional models, such as the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus, LTPO displays can precisely adjust the refresh rate, even going down to 1Hz in some cases, such as the “always-on” display. (always on). This adaptation reduces battery consumption, which is always a good thing.
Not essential, but difficult to go back
Users who are used to having a 60 Hz screen cope very well with it. But once you have tasted 120 Hz, you often hear that it is difficult to do without it. While some people may be indifferent to such a refresh rate, the arrival of the LTPO screen on all iPhone 17 models could improve the experience for all users.
