- A leaker and analyst has claimed that Apple’s base iPhones will only get 120Hz screens in 2025.
- That means you should expect the iPhone 17 to be the first base model with a 120Hz display/
Apple has restricted high refresh rate screens to iPhone Pro models since introducing the feature back in 2021. So that means those buying vanilla iPhone models are stuck with a standard 60Hz screen instead of a smoother, 120Hz display.
Now, display industry insider and analyst Ross Young has claimed on Twitter that Apple will only bring a high refresh rate screen to base iPhones in 2025. In other words, you’ll need to wait for the iPhone 17 if you want a cheaper iPhone with a 120Hz display.
