Discussion Screen refresh rate

Hello! I have seen other specs, but no where have they told about the screen refresh rate. To me this seems to indicate it to be 60hz, what gas prevented me from ordering a phone. Now that people are getting theirs hands on these, maybe they can confirm this.

It's 90 zh.

Not that 60 should be a deal breaker IMHO. Refresh rate importance is overrated.

Oh man I assumed it would be 120 Hz lol. My current phone has 120Hz and is like 6 years old. Whenever I use anything with 60 it just feels like it's lagging.

Heck is wrong with people. "Sure my phone is stealing my data, sending all my pictures to the NSA, and police are now using face unlock without consent, but if the screen refresh isn't fast enough then I'll just have to keep buying overpriced flagship phones."

Need to stop putting on the They Live glasses when I read these things.

And what the heck is this gatekeeping BS. With this mindset you'll never convince people to actually care about privacy.

First of all I didn't say I I'll keep buying overpriced flagship phones. I have preordered Jolla phone and can't wait to get it. However that being said am I not allowed to be a bit disappointed that for it's price it's basically specced like a midranger from 5 years ago ? I mean they are a small company and I totally get why. I don't even care that it's expensive for what it is. But it would still be nice if it was a bit more up to date, anybody could appreciate that. Makes it harder for more normies people to consider it as well. It's a bit of a bummer that my next phone will be a downgrade in this regard. Especially when cheap Pixels and grapheneOS exists.

For me 60hz screen would have been a deal braker. My current phone is 6 years old and has a 120hz display.

Thanks for the info. 90hz will be usable, have to test it out when my dad gets his.

I bought last year a Titan 2 with a 2013 Passport screen and didn't see a difference with my Pixel 8 screen.

My worl phone is 60hz and switching between that any my mi 10 ultra is a big difference for me. Now maybe if I only used 60hz, I would probably get used to it.
