One UI 2.0 beta hints at future Samsung Galaxy phone with a 120Hz display

Smartphones with high refresh rate displays are becoming more of a norm. The OnePlus 7 series features 90Hz displays and the Pixel 4 does as well, though it’s not without controversy. Meanwhile, Razer is creating phones with 120Hz displays and it looks like a future Samsung Galaxy phone will do the same.

Samsung is no stranger to high-end display technology, of course. However, they’ve never released a phone with a 90Hz display, let alone 120Hz. The latest One UI 2.0 Android 10 beta for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 hints at a future phone that will have a 120Hz display. There’s an option in the display settings to toggle between 60Hz and 120Hz. Obviously, the Galaxy Note 9’s display is not able to do the high refresh rate, but this could prepare for a future phone that will.

The screenshots from Ice Universe are in Chinese, but someone else replied with the English version. The two options are called “Best Display” and “Save Battery.” The Best Display is 120Hz and it says “Always use 120Hz for the smoothest possible display. This used more battery than usual.” The description for Save Battery reads “Save battery by automatically switching between 60Hz and 120Hz based on the apps you choose and the content currently shown on the screen.” It’s also possible to turn off the high refresh rate completely and only use 60Hz.

Ice Universe speculates that the Samsung Galaxy S11 will ship with the 120Hz “Best Display” option. That certainly seems like the most likely candidate for the 120Hz display. Samsung makes many of the high refresh rate displays used by other OEMs, so it would be no problem at all for Samsung outfit their own phones.
