- The rumors of the iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 would again have 120 Hz cooling prices
- However, this time, we hear that they may not have promotion screens
- This would probably mean that they do not have a variable refresh rate, which could be bad news for the battery life
We have long been expecting that the whole iPhone 17 series obtained 120 Hz screens, with many sources saying that the basic model will finally leave 60 Hz screens in the past. However, a new leak slightly complicates this assertion.
According to the renowned length leakage fiber fiber (via 9TO5MAC), the basic iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 air will indeed have 120 Hz screens, but unlike pro models, they will not be promotional screens.
You see, Apple teams its pro models with promotion screens, which, as well as being able to reach 120 Hz, are also able to calm up to 1Hz. This means that the refresh rate is never higher than necessary, so the battery can be kept when a high refresh rate is not necessary.
And with a 1 Hz cooling rate, they can also support the display function still on Apphe (which would use a lot of battery if the refresh rate was blocked at a high level). But according to this source, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 air will not have a variable refresh rate.
Not always and not enough endurance
So, this would probably mean that the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 will still not support Apple’s display functionality, but more difficult, this could also mean a reduction in the battery life for both models. This is particularly worrying for the air of the iPhone 17, which, due to being thin, will probably have a fairly small battery to start.
But that makes me doubt a little about this rumor. This could be logical for Apple to do it with the iPhone 17 of the base, because it would be an upgrade of the specifications, but which still maintains it behind the pro models. The battery struck in the air, however, would surely be too large a sacrifice.
So, I hope that this upgrade of rumors is completely wrong or will only return to the iPhone 17 of the base, as in the case of the iPhone 17, it could end up being more degraded than simply equipping it with a 60 Hz screen.
