90Hz and 120Hz refer to the refresh rate of a display, meaning how many times per second the image on the screen is updated. A higher refresh rate generally results in smoother motion and a more responsive experience, especially noticeable in fast-paced games or videos.
Here’s a comparison:
* 90Hz: Offers smoother visuals than the standard 60Hz, but is less smooth than 120Hz. It’s a good middle ground offering a noticeable improvement without demanding as much from the hardware.
* 120Hz: Provides the smoothest visuals of the two. The higher refresh rate makes motion appear significantly smoother and more fluid, particularly beneficial for gaming and content with fast-paced action. However, it requires more powerful hardware to drive and may consume more power.
The best option depends on your priorities and hardware capabilities. If you prioritize smoothness and have a device capable of handling it, 120Hz is preferable. If you want a noticeable upgrade from 60Hz but don’t need the absolute smoothest visuals or have less powerful hardware, 90Hz is a good choice.
