Apple - 240Hz Display iPhone?

 

240Hz iPhone screen patent, Apple thinks high this time.

On a 120Hz iPhone, we are still waiting, but Apple jumped ahead and filed a patent for screen refresh rates of up to 240Hz.

So while companies like Samsung are in the third generation of high refresh rate displays, and they're even offering 120-hertz displays in their mid-range phones, Apple on the other hand is still stuck at 60 hertz.

To be fair there we're considering 120-hertz variable refresh rate panels on the iPhone 12 Pro lineups, but due to the lack of supply of these variable refresh rate panels, I mean, Apple sold over 19 million iPhones in the last quarter and Samsung which makes displays for most of the iPhones wasn't able to keep up with supply and demand. So Apple dish the feature on the iPhone 12 Pro is that their upcoming iPhone 13 Pro lineup will have higher refresh rate displays.

Now, here's some crazy news going around the internet that the new iPhones will have 240-hertz displays that originated from the patent that Apple has published recently. What says the handset can operate at a refresh rate that is up to four times the native refresh rate. That is the iPhone screen natively at 60-hertz would be able to increase the rate to 120 hertz, 180 hertz, or 240 hertz automatically. The pattern says this type of display can also be used for iPads and the Apple Watch.

That being said, we don't think we're going to see the 240-hertz display on the iPhone 13 Pro. In fact, we are 100% certain that it's not going to happen. The iPhone 13 Pro lineup will likely stick to 120 hertz, LTP, or pounds, the one we have on the Galaxy S 21. Ultra c companies file patents all the time and only a fraction of them actually goes into the production stage. We're just getting started with 120-hertz displays and there's absolutely no need for them to go above this refresh rate. Considering there is no practical advantage to go over 120-hertz refresh rate, though that might change in the future a few years down the line. But for now, this is just a patent which means nothing.

Anyway, only the iPhone 13 Pro lineup this year we'll get 120-hertz displays, regular iPhone 13 and mini will get 60-hertz displays instead. Also, all the iPhone 13 will get an always-on Display feature something we're seeing for years on Galaxy phones wonder why it took them so long. The magnets on the MagSafe will be stronger this time so that it attaches to the phone much more securely. The reason is of course, as you know, they're removing the charging port from a case one of the iPhone 13 variants, which is ridiculous. 

Touch ID in iPhone 13 series

We sure they will come up with some excuse like they did with the iPhone 12 saving the environment and all but just like the charger this session will improve the sales of the MagSafe chargers which means more money. Anyway, the notch is going nowhere. But this time it is expected to get sure not in words, but in height kind of like this. Also, there was a rumor that Apple is bringing back the Touch ID in the form of an in-display fingerprint scanner. But turns out it's not happening either. You still need to take your mask off to unlock the handset. We could also bring the Astrophotography mode to the new iPhones the one we saw on the pixel phones so take Starry Night photos. All in all the iPhone 13 is going to be a very iterative upgrade. Nothing major is happening and that's why Apple might not even call the new iPhones as iPhone 13. Instead, they could in fact be called iPhone 12 x first That being said, do let me know what do you think about this down in the comments. As always, I'll see you in the next post.
