In a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter) Display Supply Chain Consultants' Ross Young said (redesigned iPhone 17 Slim — will be equipped with upgraded displays with a refresh rate that ranges between 1Hz and 120Hz.
While Apple introduced its 120Hz ProMotion on its smartphones with the iPhone 13 Pro Max in 2021, the company's recent models are equipped with LTPO AMOLED screens that enable functionality like the always on display feature that arrived with the iPhone 14 Pro and newer models.
If Young's claim is accurate, the iPhone 17 and the iPhone 17 Slim could be the first non-Pro models from the company to be equipped with displays that have a high refresh rate. Even the latest iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus feature 60Hz displays, while several cheaper Android smartphones that are five times cheaper than the base iPhone 16 model offer a higher refresh rate.
