Evidence disputes wild claims of iOS 18 downgrading iPhones to an 80 Hz refresh rate
Sep 26, 2024 am 07:05 AMThe releases of iOS 18 and iPadOS have got off to rather rocky starts. For example, iOS 18 was found to reduce performance on older iPhones that have been upgraded from iOS 17. Additionally, Apple was forced to halt the rollout of the latter after reports emerged of iPadOS 18 bricking some Apple M4-based iPad Pro 11 and iPad Pro 13 units.
Following that, reports surfaced that iOS 18 limits iPhones with ProMotion displays to 80 Hz when scrolling. As far as we can tell, these claims originate from Ice Universe, who posted evidence of their iPhone 16 Pro Max (curr. $1,199.99 on Amazon) being 'always locked at 80Hz' when scrolling through Weibo. Given the leaker's reputation within the tech community, it seemed that their claims have been presented as fact with little to no research around the area.
On the one hand, there is nothing to support @UniverseIce's inference that the app being used to record refresh rate values is accurate. Moreover, others have demonstrated that their 120 Hz-capable iPhones do reach their full refresh rate when scrolling. However, swiping quickly in certain apps does cause the display's variable refresh rate to kick in, thereby reducing it to 80 Hz.
On the other hand, the '80 Hz' phenomenon on iPhones with 120 Hz capable displays pre-dates the release of iOS 18 and the iPhone 16 series. For instance, a cursory search reveals early iPhone 13 Pro Max owners complaining about the same issues in October 2021. Likewise, YouTuber Golden Reviewer had the same complaint in a video from the same period titled '120Hz ProMotion is Bugged on iPhone'. In short, it has taken an account with a substantial following to bring something to people's attention that may well have been present in iOS since Apple first brought ProMotion panels to the iPhone with the release of the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max over three years ago.

Apple's iPhone 17 may usher in a major upgrade to cope with the impact of strong competitors such as Huawei and Xiaomi in China. According to the digital blogger @Digital Chat Station, the standard version of iPhone 17 is expected to be equipped with a high refresh rate screen for the first time, significantly improving the user experience. This move marks the fact that Apple has finally delegated high refresh rate technology to the standard version after five years. At present, the iPhone 16 is the only flagship phone with a 60Hz screen in the 6,000 yuan price range, and it seems a bit behind. Although the standard version of the iPhone 17 will have a high refresh rate screen, there are still differences compared to the Pro version, such as the bezel design still does not achieve the ultra-narrow bezel effect of the Pro version. What is more worth noting is that the iPhone 17 Pro series will adopt a brand new and more
