Best 90Hz display phones 2021: Moto G30, Samsung Galaxy M12, Realme 7 series, OnePlus Nord, and more

High screen refresh rate ensures smoother scrolling, better animations, and the ability to display more frames per second

Plenty of phones with 90Hz display have been launched in India. We’ve picked the top 10 90Hz display phones that you can buy in India right now. In no time, 90Hz display has become just as important as any other aspect of a handset, such as screen resolution, chipset, cameras, battery, and configurations. The high refresh rate of 90Hz (or more) means smoother scrolling and much better animations compared to the average 60Hz refresh rate panel, thus improving the overall user experience. The 90Hz panels have been around for a while – in monitors or gaming phones – but never on a mainstream smartphone. Had it not been for OnePlus to introduce a phone with a 90Hz display, who knows we would still be making peace with a lower refresh rate.

What is 90Hz (or 120Hz) display?

There’s a fairly big assortment of 90Hz or 120Hz display smartphones out there, but before we get into that here’s a quick explanation about the tech. The 90Hz or 120Hz are the refresh rates at which the image redraws on the screen. Displays with a 90Hz refresh rate render images 90 times per second, while the 120Hz refresh rate will display images at 120 times per second. The higher the refresh rate, the lesser is the motion blur and the better the image quality. How does it affect your experience? Such displays offer fluid animation and you’ll love scrolling through the app drawer, images, web pages, etc. The only drawback of a high refresh rate is that it consumes more battery.

Additionally, while the screen refresh rate and Touch Refresh Rate are co-related, they are not the same. The latter is basically the speed at which a screen registers your touch and responds with the next set of renders in the animation. If the Touch Refresh Rate and screen refresh rate are the same — say 60Hz or 90Hz, the animations render in one interval. However, if the touch refresh rate is slightly higher than the screen rate, then the animation will be fluid and overall experience will improve. Apple’s iPhone 11 series, for instance, have 60Hz refresh rate and 120Hz touch response rate. Notably, only compatible apps and videos will seem smoother and fluid on a 90Hz display compared to a 60Hz display. There’s no native way to force apps to run on 90Hz or 120Hz refresh rate.

So, yes, the refresh rate is definitely a feature to keep in mind when buying a phone.
