Are manufacturers stuck in a questionable spec war, or are we one day going to wonder how we ever put up with ‘only’ 240Hz displays?

I can’t even be bothered with 4k, never mind this. I guess least it gives them something to do…

I just want my low key input to display latencies in games and I'll be happy with as low as 40 fps. Unless it's vr then I also need way more stuff than I can afford like 140+hz, lenses and fov something something, panel tech something also, etc. in order to not get sick

My screen is still the same 144hz. How do you make it go faster?

I still use a 75hz desktop and 60hz on my Laptop. I can’t tell the difference.

Even looking at the iPhone 15 pro next to a 15 looks the same to me.

When it comes to my phone, I can tell the difference between 90 and 60 Hz. I prefer 90 Hz but I would be okay with 60. Ideally I'd like the highest refresh rate I can get inside my budget when I have to buy a new device with a screen. One annoying limitation is that all the video is played in 24-60 Hz. I notice it when things move with any kind of speed or when I'm looking at background object and the camera moves.

All things considered, it's a minor annoyance. My quality of life wouldn't change if I were limited to 30 Hz.

Honestly as funny as it is I've been able to notices differences between 120 - 144 hz displays pretty consistently
