Since I’m actually afraid of consuming the battery life and personally don’t need 120hz, is there a way to downgrade it to 90hz?
And if it isn’t possible via settings, is there a DBTO image that can allow that?
thanks
I don't think it's possible (yet) but It's adaptive sync so it will not run 120hz at all time, it will run at the supported hz's of: 30Hz/48Hz/50Hz/60Hz/90Hz/120Hz
For example on the home screen and settings it will run at 50hz (according to my test) when you not scroll, only 120hz when you scroll or touch.
Most games locked to 30/60fps and it will not run at 120hz there of course.

I know, but even with adaptive sync I don't think this phone will get to 7 hours of usage with display on

My phone with normal usage (chrome, youtube, instagram, some light games) gets 8-9 hours on screen with 120hz (adaptive sync).

Afaik.. most if not all Android games are lock in 30fps ? a few has the option to run at 60fps... so what is the purpose of the 120hz display?
for home screen at navigation only ?

No not all android games are locked at 30 or 60 fps, many are not locked at all, which means they can reach 120 fps even with little to no aupport.
120FPS can and does function everywhere that has no framerate lock (just like PC). Even custom roms run at 120 fps.
For a list of OFFICIALLY supported games refer to
https://support.razer.com/mobile/razer-phone
Here you will see a list if officially supported games. However, games that are NOT framerate locked "can" reach 120FPS depending on how graphically heavy they are.
You will see the 120 fps everywhere and i personally have not found any part of the OS where there might be a framerate lock mainly because there is none. Also its super smooth and responsive.
Now yes games that are locked will not reach higher framerates unless official support is added by the game developer.

You can also have the FPS show on your screen while using the phone (in any app) and you'll see a lot of games run higher than 30 or 60fps.
This setting can be found towards the bottom of developer options
I just found out that when at the lower fhd resolution, watching a video doesn't automatically bump up the resolution to max Wqhd+.
Is there a way to keep resolution at the for normal use to save battery, but bump it up when say..playing games or watching videos?
Yes, Use Bixby Routines and add below condition:
If > App Opened (Video, Youtube)
Then > Resolution to WQHD+

Many thanks.
Why didn't I think of this before? You should post this in the battery and SOT threads, it's just genius.
Well Bixby routines are new so we are not used to its presence and features that may be useful
Hadn't noticed these before, looks quite useful and easier than Tasker to setup for simple things. Good find.
This isnt working for me.
I still have 1080p as max resolution in YT even tho WQHD is supposed to be turned on.

Tried but not working at all
So it doesn't work? Did anyone get it to work?
For YouTube it's surely not working since it doesn't depend on the screen's resolution.
You can't force the official app to always stream at given resolution. Bixby Routines can only automatically set the screen to WQHD+, not the quality of the stream.
YouTube it doesn't work. Anyone know how to have 1440p working on youtube?

Hello sfu,
I alr set my display to 120Hz, but does it mean I am getting 120Hz on all my settings ??
If not, how do I force all the apps to get 120HZ?
Thank You.
Isn't it always 120Hz? Check with the app that display refresh rate. But the last time I checked, everytime it was 118-120Hz.

some apps revert it back to 60hz, like youtube, google photos, netflix. Recents apps page is 90hz
You need to delete battery app data.You will have yt and all aps on 120hz but after some time it reverts on 60hz and you need to delete it again.

That's troublesome though, is there any other way to make it permanent to 120Hz ???
Why it keep on reverts to 60hz?
That is the question for Poco.
I believe the idea is to keep battery usage to a minimum... Apps that don't natively make use of the 120Hz are switched back to 60Hz in favor or battery life. In short 120Hz is actually adaptive refresh rate.
I thought it was an adaptative screen freqency rate but actually, we only have the option to set to 60Hz or 120Hz. Only. Or did I miss something ?

According to the GSMarena review, F3 has variable refresh rate, it will automatically change between 60,90 and 120HZ. This guide will lock it on 90hz

So why in settings I only see 60Hz or 120Hz and nothing about 'switching' 'variable' etc ? :s

Just put it on high (120hz). It will automatically reduce to 90hz or 60hz depends on what shown on the screen and how you interact with the screen.
For example, when you're watching a website, reading text, it will automatically put back on 60hz. And when you touch the screen (for example, to scroll the website) it push back on 120hz
Hey have any one noticed that the phone change from 120 to 60 fps when use any of google apps including gboard and YouTube if so or is a common issue what is the solution.
thanks
In adb shell run this:
settings put global oneplus_screen_refresh_rate 0

Reboot your phone.
If you want to keep it, you can try autojs(or other auto apps)to run this when start up.
Personally i find 60 fps good for everything else.
the automatic detection switches to 120 fps mode when I go into games, which is exactly what I want.
Having the phone run at 120 fps all the time drains too much battery.

Install AutoHz...a good one.
The battery drain is quite high and there's no option to automatically switch between 60 and 120 hz. Pretty bs
No, but the galaxy max Hz app
exactly, no official option, but the galaxy max hz. This thread: link
I used maxhz but I stopped. It works nice but there is reason why Samsung didn't implemented that. Screen in low brightness have slightly different colors in 60Hz and 120Hz. As result I stopped to use maxhz and I use 60Hz permanently

You can notice that on some colors. For me that was visible for example at AccuBattery green. I will make second try on that, maybe that was placebo after reading some posts about that ^^
Okay, so I checked it again and still didn't see any difference on AccuBattery icon. But this time I saw very, very little change in gray colour. It changes its brightness a little.
