That's touch sampling rate available on iphones since iPhone XS, XS max and XR. Its different from 120hz refresh rate.

i dont think apple will increase refresh rate just yet but they may still find a way to manage it... But till then

I see them not going the full 120hz but we would most likely see 90hz. Higher refresh rate is the new trend and why I still think Sony got their priorities wrong with the Sony Xperia 1 ii. For $1,200 they couldn't even offer a higher refresh rate, instead, they went with 4k display which is pointless as u cannot tell a difference between that and a 1440p display. In fact differentiating between a 1080p and 1440p is very difficult let alone 4k. They tried as much as possible to make the camera great but too much for what an average phone user would really want. Most people just want a point and shoot camera that will give great images. Those who want complex cameras just buy DSLR. Also for that price they are offering 8gb of RAM while the competion is offering 12gb. They even made it 4,000mah for a 4k display with 21W charging, what a joke. Galaxy s20 ultra has 45w fast charging and 5,000mah battery, One plus 8 pro has 4,500mah and 30w fast charging. To top it all up it doesn't even have reverse wireless charging, like who is giving advice to Sony? It doesn't even support 5G. I don't see too many people paying $1,200 for this phone when they could just get a galaxy s20 ultra, or get a Oneplus 8 pro for cheaper.

this guy sef..... Why was the launch called off.... Why did the early users of the fold return it complaining that the screen couldnt keep up..... Should i continue?
No launch was called off. Samsung released prototypes of the Fold to Tech Reviewers for testing. They found a problem with the screen attachment and the hinge. Samsung rectified it before releasing the actual mainstream Galaxy Fold to the public. The actual models of the Fold haven't had any problem whatsoever. Try to keep yourself updated.

Bro, apple have been working on face id for a while, it's not something they can do within 3 months of essential ph1 release. iPhone x leaks came out before essential phone release. Watch the video below


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF8uTzjK5Os
The essential phone was announced in May though...this your video is July undecided

And also try looking at the Essential Phone. That is in no way similar to the iPhone (apart from being a notch). It can't be a copy.

Ok boss, let's play.

I hope u know iPhone x renders with that notch have been leaked as far back as 2016, way before anyone knew anything about the essential phone. Just check the images below. The first image was June 9 2017. Essential phone was announced in May 2017, r u telling me it took apple just 1 month to design the iPhone x? Lol.

If that is not enough check the other pictures, as far back as 2016 they have been working on that design. Now who copied who? Like I said earlier, essential phone was rush to be released, it was not a finished product and that was why it failed.

Yes, they have not been very innovative for sometime now. I think it's mainly due to that they have their customers locked down. No matter what they bring out, people will still queue to buy. They have their own os, if u like iOS u have no choice but buy the iPhone. So they can decide to release the same phone for 2-3 generations with just minor changes. The iphone x design is in its 3rd and most probably last generation now. And to be frank I don't think changing the design of phones every year is very good for business of even for customers. If I bought an iPhone xs for $1,000, then a year later apple realeases a completely different iPhone 11, I would feel jealous, but if the design is not too different I can still hold on to my old phone for another year. Good for customers, good for business as they can still use old parts for the new phone.

Samsung have also followed this trend. In the past Samsung are known to release new designs every year, but for sometime now they have followed apple steps, release phones for generations. The s8 design was carried on till the S10 (3 generations). It makes someone who owns the s9 to skip the S10 and buy the s20. In fact if not for the competition Android devices are giving, apple are ready to delay new features of phones for as long as they can, not because they can't do it but it's a business strategy.
you are very very sensible

You’d prove your point better by showing me a journal from 2016, with the notch design renders. As far as I know, nobody guessed anything about that design until a few weeks before it’s announcement. I also know the design came as a surprise to many tech reviewers, I still remember clearly. But I get your point...you think Essential copied Apple, because it’s easier to believe they saw an Apple render and made a phone out of it, than it is to believe that Apple saw the Essential render/phone and designed a 3D render after it.

I never said essential copied Apple, I only proved that the iPhone x renders have leaked way before the essential phone was announced. It's u people that keep saying apple copied essential which is NOT TRUE.

The approach they used for the rear camera cannot be replicated with the front camera...

Cutouts for front cameras and sensors defeats the purpose of full screen they're trying to achieve in the first place.

Using it nonetheless will only make the price of phones higher, cause health hazards from falls, exposure to static electricity and repairs will be too expensive, making them not worth it, unless it'll be limited edition/collectors items.

no 5g... 5g is still new as at 2019 when it was announced you can forgive them for that..... The camera is quite the bomb but only those who actually know photography can navigate the sony xperia well as 4 oneplus... Abeg i no fit talk for those ones...
But you have to admit 4k display is impressive but for $1.2k sony must be mad

yes.... Those with motorized selfie cameras exist.... And me sef no go gree buy that kin phone as a cybersecurity enthusiast i know that is just plain silly.... If someone can hack ur phone camera and spy on you when it can be covered.... Imagine when the owner cant even see it
and also a screen is a sensor with multiple functions.... Imagine placing another sensor under it... How does that work
add long as your camera is visible, it can be used to spy on you, be it under the display, notched, cut out or bezzeled. You want to avoid that, get a pop up selfie cam phone

Actually it was announced in February 2020. I agree 4k display is impressive but c'mon bro, can u tell the difference between 1080p and 1440p. If we can turn off fanboysm for just a minute, then u will see it's almost impossible to tell the difference between FHD+ and Quad Hd+. Just look at the video below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9vmex44TmA

To me 4k on a smartphone is an overkill and unnecessary, there is a limit to the number of pixels our naked eyes could see. I would take a 1440p 120hz refresh rate over 4k 60hz, hell I would even take 1080p 120hz over 4k 60.

And u are right about the camera, only professional photographers can navigate it, but hey most professional photographers don't use their phones camera as their main camera. Sony got their priorities wrong yet again like they always do.

But the 45w in ultra is bought separately, the follow come na 25w, and if u are into pixel formation, you will see a big difference between 1440p, and 1080p, and a bigger difference between a 4k screen and 1440p

Bro, we talking about smartphones here that will be a few inches away from ur face. Trust me u cannot tell the difference between 4k and 1440p on a smartphone. Same way u can hardly tell the difference between 1080p and 4k on tv that is less than 45 inches, u need like 55 inches tv to really see the difference. And then u cannot tell the difference between 4k and 8k on any tv that is less than 75 inches. Why do u think all TV's with 8k are TV's that are over 75 inches.

there's a profound argument about apple innovating or simply forcing down change they dub as innovation. Whichever the case may be, Apple is an established company.
