Now this dynamic refresh rate has its perks and caveat. The benefit is the preservation of the battery as your device’s display will automatically adjust the refresh rate according to the tasks that you are performing at that point in time. For example, it will lower down the rate when you aren’t into resource-intensive tasks (such as while scrolling through feeds) and will increment it when playing high FPS games. But on the flip side, the drawback is you cannot have your say in this. So whatever fresh rate has been set by your device, you have to remain content with it. For example, whenever you open the camera inside any app, such as Snapchat or Instagram, then the FPS would drop down to 60Hz. And this is a big no for a lot of users out there.
