Of course you notice. I never said you wont notice. But the nice feeling dies down very quick once you get used to it (which you will extremely fast) and then only when you go back to lower hz you will notice it again. So it practically makes no difference. Even more when the only real purpose is for something as static as scrolling. 120hz won‘t improve your scrolling or add any new features. It‘s literally the same. What an absolutely laughable use case for high fps displays. And on top you get a worse battery life as well because the display drains more power.

Legitimately Apple would crush the market if they are first to market with this and its reliability accrue and FFA approved. As a T1D I can tell you most people would buy one since it would eliminate the large cost of having a CGM currently. Almost unlimited press and a couple million watches. Throw in a couple fitness gurus and such and you have a cash cow. People will upgrade for a 5% boost in accuracy or whatever they will claim. It would be BIG

Wtf. I‘ve been playing games on 144hz for over 10 years now. You legit only need higher hz for very hectic games otherwise it just won‘t make a difference. In the first 10min you think how amazing this feels and then you just forget about it because it makes 0 difference especially in phones. Movies and videos aren’t higher than 60fps most of the time and games on phones are absolutely not higher so you only notice the difference when scrolling. Very useful and practical indeed. But hey keep spending your money on useless shit none of my business.
