Overall speed - Sony Xperia 5 II Real Life Review

Just fast. Once you go 120Hz there's no turning back. Butter smooth everywhere!

The phone is very quick and responsive. I agree that once you turn on the 120Hz refresh rate, you'll quickly get used to it. The phone has excellent battery life, so I just leave the 120Hz on. It easily makes it through the whole day, so why not?

I actually do not see a noticeable difference between 60 and 120 Hz, so I just leave it at 60 Hz.
Overall speed is lovely only the cam sucks (too slow).

Impossible, 120Hz is a lot more fluid than 60Hz

Same here for refresh rate. On camera part though I use more of Photo Pro and just getting the hang of it(The way to get control over photos is awesome!)

I too don't see much difference in scrolling but definitely it drains battery a lot so I also kept the toggle off.

Display HZ rate?

Someone now the Hz rate of the display samsung galaxy s7 edge
Most likely 60hz. Otherwise I'm sure we would've heard of it by now. A minimum of 90 would be nice for VR, but otherwise it isn't justifiable on a phone in this day and age. At least not with the "vox populi".
i would be already happy about 60fps films and videos

This is about screen refresh rate, not FPS in videos.
Dame. I was hope for like 100+ . VR headset going to be bad.

I'm pretty sure I heard carmack say (At least about the Note4 at the time) that in gearvr mode it DOES bump the display up to ~90hz.

But screen refresh rate isn't useful when input material hasn't even got enough frames And the menus wont be fluent too because almost all animations still stutter

Screen refresh rate effects the entire UI, gaming, etc.
open this site on your browser "www.displayhz.com".It will show the refesh rate.
It's 60hz! but I want a petition for 80hz! trust me even the UI feels much better c: Specially on phones since there's scrolling and etc. I have a 144hz monitor and I can't stand my 60hz one next to it! even when browsing the web c:
But *ehm* *ehm* samsung should first make 60hz work first.... Cause I feel like all animations are 30fps c:

Didn't take long though did it lol. February 2016 you wrote that now we have Razor Phone with 120hz display.
it's 59 hz
Can it switch to 90Hz for VR? Would be nice to trigger this for Standard UI.

Actually more than fast , I was thinking bad about colour is but it's as good as miui ... I haven't faced a single lag with 10 or more apps on the background ... I must say they really optimised it great ... I have played pubg in high settings it's just mind boggling not starters no lags so far ... Review after a full day use
Ni its not fast as daily driver compared to miui and stock rom
Great for daily use. Color os have "high performance"(antutu: 172K) mode for you, but the normal mode is enough for me(antutu:157K)

Love this post!?
yes, I never thought about realme 3pro would compete with red mi note 7 pro, but this is outstanding in terms of gaming, battery backup, daily usage.
the only thing bothers me is its COLOR OS... yes, and i am eagerly waiting for a good custom rom for this device. i hope we would get this soon.

Scrolling smoothness

Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the OnePlus 7T under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".

I reduced the refresh rate to 60 Hz to save some battery life to compensate for some other battery-hogging tweaks, and honestly, I can't tell the difference in my own use. It's still plenty crisp and smooth.
That being said, I'm not a gamer, and I don't watch videos on the phone save for the occasional YouTube video that someone will send me a link to; so don't take my experience as necessarily being typical. For the way I use the phone, it's nice and smooth even at 60 Hz. YMMV.
This phone is smooth when scrolling. It's the smoothest scrolling phone I've ever experienced.
I have terrible smoothness. Everything laging when scrolling. 5t when bought was working much more smoothly. If the update does not improve the situation, I will sell the phone and forget about Oneplus

These are at 60Hz. I needed to offset some other battery-hogging tweaks I made, so I turned the refresh rate down.

I think that has more to do with YouTube's resizing and transcoding than anything else. Playing the videos directly on my computer, they look much better; and looking directly at the screen rather than at a recording, I don't notice any jerkiness to speak of.
Maybe my eyes are just older.
Agree with you
My unit:
@60 - jagged scrolling, not good at all.
@90 - ultra smooth, it's like a different device.

Best i have ever felt the scrolling is so smooth you will never want to switch to other phone believe me the experience is top notch you will never want to trade your phone just for this one feature every Device you use here after will feel slow cuz of this.
The only thing you'll find is if the brightness drops below 40% , then 144 mode turns off automatically.
I haven't found a way to force it yet.
Really smooth. Found it a relief from how slow my Blackberry Priv has become.
Being a past Rog Phone 1 user, the jump to 120Hz is abysmal. Really smooth sensation.
Although, the difference between 120Hz and 144Hz is very faint, it can be perceived over time. Scrolling specifically, either refresh rate is an eye candy, really great !
Can anyone comment on the claimed 25ms touch latency? All my previously owned Android phones/tablets had horrendous touch response.
OMG!!
This thing is smooth like 'budder'!!
Running at 120hz usually as can't tell much diff between that and 144hz.

Really smooth
Forcing 90hz is a whole different world. We shall see what that does to the battery.
Can't wait for 120hz.

I used to force 90Hz in the smaller Pixel 4 (not the XL) because the refresh rate was forced to 60Hz between 1%-40% brightness when using Smooth Display.
Now in the Pixel 5. Google changed this. Smooth display seems to be forcing 90Hz between 1%-40% brightness and using variable refresh rate (so 60Hz when the display is still for some time, and 90Hz when the display is being updated) between 40%-100% brightness.
So I personally stopped needing to force 90Hz. The standard setting works for me.
Would be awesome if Google implemented the same behaviour in "flame".
Note: I haven't tested this in special apps. (Example: I read that Smooth Display also adapts the refresh rate when playing 30 or 60 FPS videos etc and thinks that are locked).
But I haven't verified the behaviour with videos or games.

I don't know about you, but my pixel 5 loses frames .... it annoys me because OP7T was smoother, forcing 90hz in developer options does not help
I've come from 2 years with 120hz and this Pixel 5 feels exactly the same, you would only tell any difference if you had two phones side by side or perhaps you are sensitive to it .
I see no need to force the 90 the phone is great I'm fact I haven't bothered with developer options at all

This is what I was worried about. Just ordered my pixel 5 and I'm coming from a pixel 4. Even on the pixel 4 with the SD855 it still dropped frames here and there on occasion. So I'm wondering how bad the SD765G will be, hopefully it's not too bad because I don't want to go back to my pixel 4, I HATE face unlock lol.
It's not 'bad' at all

Very smooth for me (although I do wish for a 120hz pixel one day). I'm coming from a Pixel 4 and for some reason the P5 seems smoother when I compare them side by side. Like my Pixel 4 is dropping more frames than my P5. It could be the fact that my P5 is brand new and that I upgraded directly from Android 10 to Android 11 (dirty flash) instead of doing a clean install on my P4. But it's also worth noting that I have all my apps loaded onto my P5 with photos, music and everything so it's not totally empty. Overall I am impressed. I'm excited for more custom kernels because now I can overclock the cpu without feeling guilty because the battery is so big compared to the P4.
I also like the fact that the dynamic switching between 90hz and 60hz is much better this time around as explained by someone else above. It seems it mostly only switches to 90hz when you touch the screen (you can observe this in action by enabling "Show refresh rate" in developer options) and doesn't completely switch to 60hz below a certain brightness level like the P4 would. The implementation of dynamic switching between 60hz and 90hz on the P4 was awful. With this new implementation on the P5 you can reap the benefits of good battery life and enjoy 90hz only when its needed.
I get a lot of stutter while scrolling.
