A Chinese leak with a mixed track record for accurate predictions has disputed disputed claims today that there will be a promotion display in regular iPhone 17 and all new Ultra-Patli iPhone 17 Air.
The promotion has been limited to Pro model since the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max started in 2021, but many sources have suggested that Apple will fit 120Hz variable refresh technology in the base iPhone 17 model this year, as well as the new iPhone 17 air which replaces the plus model in the lineup.
However, Weibo-based leikar Fixed focus digitalThe sources of the sources of the upcoming non-pro models clearly explain them that the panel being used in the upcoming non-pro model is just a standard 120Hz screen, not promoting with a adaptive refresh rate. ” If the claim is true, it would indicate that Apple is still using low-temperature polycristline silicone (LTPS) panels for its lower-end iPhone model, although the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are fitted with 60HZ LTPS panels.
Without promotion, a certain 120Hz panel will still feel smooth, especially during scrolling, animation and UI infections. However, it will probably drain more battery, as it is faster at all times while watching stable materials. In contrast, the promotion dynamically adjusts the fresh rate anywhere between 1Hz and 120Hz, which is based on materials and user interactions, which preserves battery life.
A certain 120Hz panel also means that the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 air will always have a lack of Apple-on display capacity that shows the lock screen watch, widgets, notifications and wallpapers, even when the device is locked and inactive.
Fortunately, the case of promotion in non-ex-iPhone 17 is strong. Ross Young, CEO of Display Supply Chen Consultants, indicated last year that Apple’s suppliers are increasing the production of LTPO panels for the entire iPhone 17 lineup, supporting the possibility of promotion display in all models. LTPO (low-Papan Polycristline Oxide) is a low-power backplane technique for OLED display that allows for a variable fresh rate with low power consumption. Young’s claim has been confirmed by South Korea since then ETNEWS And Alec,
Fixed focus Digital shared accurate predictions in the past, including the correct naming of the iPhone 16E before its official confirmation. The account also claimed that the iPhone 16 Pro model would be available in a new bronze finish, which ended as a desert titanium. On the other hand, the account was wrong about the number of iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 plus color options that would be available. For promotion, the weight of evidence on this rumor is against them, and we are personally hoping that this is a bad call. Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17 lineup around September.
