How to adjust the refresh rate on my samsung phone
You can adjust the refresh rate to remove afterimages and blurs from fast-moving images using the Motion smoothness feature. The refresh rate of Galaxy phones is set to 60 Hz by default, but you can improve it to enable smoother movement on the display by changing it to 120 Hz. The guide below will show you how to change the refresh rate on your phone.
Note: Before you try the recommendations below, be sure to check if your device's software and related apps are updated to the latest version. To update your mobile device's software, follow these steps:
Step 1. Go to Settings > Software update.
Step 2. Tap on Download and install.
Step 3. Follow the on-screen instructions
What is a refresh rate and why is it important?
All content on your phone's display is made up of individual still frames that are displayed at very high speed. The Refresh rate is measured in hertz (Hz) and refers to how many times per second a frame is updated. With a refresh rate of 120 Hz, new frames can be displayed up to 120 times per second, and a 60Hz display refreshes the screen 60 times per second.
A higher refresh rate makes everything on your phone's display look smoother and sharper. Use a high refresh rate to avoid screen flickering when switching screens. Please note that as the display refreshes more times per second, more battery power is required.
The display's refresh rate can be changed from 60 to 120 Hz, allowing you to enjoy content more dynamically and vividly. If, on the other hand, you notice that the battery is draining faster as a result of the high refresh rate, you can reduce it to 60 Hz for more efficient power management. To change the refresh rate, follow the steps below.
Step 1. Launch the Settings app and select Display.
Step 2. Tap Motion smoothness.
Step 3. Choose your desired option, and then tap Apply.
- Adaptive: Enjoy smoother animations and scrolling by automatically adjusting your screen refresh rate up to 120 Hz.
- Standard: Use a 60 Hz screen refresh rate in normal situations to conserve battery power.
