These days, even mid-range, affordable Android smartphones are stepping up their game with a 120Hz display. In contrast, the $799 standard iPhone 16 and $899 iPhone 16 Plus are still launching with a modest 60Hz display, which can be disappointing. However, there's hope for the next generation of iPhones, as Apple might be gearing up to boost the refresh rate. The news comes on the heels of a report by Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station stating that the standard version of the iPhone 17 series is likely to have a high refresh rate. The tipster adds that the information is based on supply chain materials. While the exact refresh rate of the standard iPhone 17 is yet to be discovered, Apple is less likely to opt for a 120Hz refresh rate. Instead, the standard models could get a 90Hz refresh rate, while the 120Hz grade is reserved for the Pro and Pro Max models. Digital Chat Station hasn't provided more context, so we should take these claims with a pinch of salt. In the meantime, Apple reportedly has a Slim/Air version of the iPhone 17 in the pipeline, which is supposed to replace the Plus models in the iPhone lineup. The device is tipped to be 2nm thinner than the iPhone 16 Pro and could also get a 90Hz display.
