Higher refresh rates are an absolute garbage feature in warm countries.

My laptop switches to 300 Hz refresh rate, automatically, when I plug the charger in. And 2 mins later, my laptop is a literal oven and the fans sound like a fighter jet flying right above ur head.

My phone has a 144 and 120 Hz refresh rate feature but I never use it. I played a game of PUBG Mobile on 120 Hz and it made my phone so hot I couldn't hold it properly.

    Movies are filmed at 24fps. Looks ok to me

    monitors and phones operate at 300fps. Looks ok.

    I don't understand why the good ol' 60hz is no longer enough. Hace our eyes changed over time? It's not like we're still using crt

    @netikras there is a difference between what is enough to make your brain trick you into seeing movement and what your eyes can actually track and follow.
    That is a lot more than 60 times a second and it makes a real difference especially when you take into account half rendered scenes and the need to anticipate.

    @netikras 24fps movies are mostly acceptable because we're used to it. But if there's a too fast panning shot you can see. the. stut. ter.

    @hjk101 60 is good enough for majority of cases

    @iiii ow yes I fully agree with that! My monitor is also 60hz. But it's also not complete bullshit to have higher refresh rates. Although I see they make screens that go 300hz. It's hard to even generate that many frames.

    Same as gamer mice that have 10000 dpi while with dpi of 2000 it already needs a lot of sensitivity adjustment to be usable. There is so much bullshit especially oriented towards gaming.

    There should be a way to control frame rate especially on mobile devices, but it's far from useless. Even simple things like moving a cursor feel choppy on a 60 fps monitor. In movies, 24 fps works well because of the motion blur when the 180 degree shutter rule is adhered to. If you shoot 24 fps with a fast shutter speed, you end up with a stutter show.
