    I would REALLY like to buy one of these. But I just can’t justify buying anything with a 60hz display in 2024.

        Once you get used to higher refresh rates, lower ones look stuttery.

        Sometimes when I go back to a lower refresh rate display, I even get some visual discomfort for a little while until I readjust.

        For me going to 90 or 120Hz is well worth the small hit to battery life.

        It’s just an eye comfort thing. Higher refresh rate looks better, no matter what you’re doing.

        It’s not that I need it, it’s that if I’m dropping $500+ on a toy, how can it NOT have it when all my other devices do?

        If nothing else, UI flow feels a lot better. Difference, even in a smartphone while using menus or playing games, is significant. It can actually help reduce screen fatigue or dizziness a lot on games or videos with quick and drastic camera movements.

        However, in most cases, for a lot of people who were playing games even 10 years ago, it is a quality of life improvement akin to switching to a more comfortable chair, mouse or keyboard.
