> If that's your argument, why even bother going above 30 fps.
Unlike 60fps to 120fps,60 fps is a necessity for me because be eyes hurt with anything else

Silly pajeet, don't you know how this works and why Apple always wins? Its about execution. A high refresh rate panel isn't even innovation, for anyone. Its just a high refresh rate panel.

10 hours is not enough?

Apple does dynamic screen updares. Static shit = low updates (24Hz) and Games = high refresh rate. Videos = 24/29/60Hz depending on the source.

It's awesome!
>>
>>60762341
120hz is useless except for games....... you dont even have a mouse curser, the only other noicable thing that 120hz improves. Fucking meme technology.
>>
>>60764048
yup I guess so. This also allows them to market the blur-free meme as hard as the display industry does with 60hz< displays
>>
VR headsets use mobile phone displays that push over 90Hz.
It's actually useful if you have a pen and write on the screen, as any lag ruins the illusion of actually writing.
And I'm sure it's going to be 60Hz most of the time in order not to drain the battery, 60 is good enough for animations.
>>
>>60764049
>Physics dictates it will happen unless they use a bigger battery and/or a much much more efficient GPU
Would you stop being so condescending. "Its impact on battery life" obviously means that at this point, we do not know how big the hit on battery life will be and if it is properly accounted for by a larger battery / more power efficient technology.

You also don't need to quote every single sentence.

No it's not especially when encoding 1080p anime from the sd card with subtitles on VLC with brightness at 60 to 70%

>>60763544

> Nice but how will you see the difference if nothing will be able to run at 120fps?

Apple's mobile processors have been 1 full year ahead of the competition (Snapdragon) since the iPhone 6 in 2014. Say what you will about their products but their silicon team is no fucking joke. The new A10X chip will probably take 120Hz without breaking a sweat.

>>60763793

> So, a pretty feature that is useless, more power demanding and battery draining?

They have variable refresh rates now (which isn't a first in a consumer product like they say, there's at least FreeSync / G-Sync) which means they can render at 24Hz or 120Hz depending on the displayed content. If 120Hz consumes significantly more battery, 24Hz will consume significantly less.

That's a neat application of the technology; I don't think any of the laptop companies pushing G-Sync in their gaming laptops has thought about doing this for battery life. (Not sure if they even can since they don't control the full stack)
>>
Response times for touch based feedback from the device matters more if you care about smoothness in smartphone/tablets. So having 120 Hz won't matter to much other than for gaming

Intel was talking about this for a while for laptops + memory on the TCON for passive refresh, but they it takes a vertically integrated company (or one with the pull) of Apple to pull this off.

iOS 11 actually seems pretty cool, they finally added things like a proper file browser and dock and things like that. I'm almost tempted to get the new 10 inch iPad Pro instead of the Samsung Chromebook Pro with Linux that I'm thinking about getting since I'm going to college this fall, especially with the Affinity Photo app they announced since I'm a photographer, and iOS will have much better stylus support than what I'll be able to get on Linux.

I have a beefy desktop at home so I don't need a Windows laptop or Macbook on the go, but I'm still annoyed that the iPad relies on the cloud for everything and you can't even do something as basic as hook up a USB stick to it, even if you have a USB OTG adapter.

Use Plex or Handbrake to transcode to something your iPad can play natively you goof. Your battery tanks in that situation because VLC is using the CPU to decode the video, which as it turns out, is incredibly inefficient.

I have marathonned shows with natively encoded video on 12h international flights on my iPad Pro and always have plenty of charge left over after landing. It's good quality shit too; not quite 10-bit 1GB per episode sort of quality, but much much better than HorribleSubs/CR quality and more than good enough for viewing on a fucking tablet.

Nice rebuttal.
>>
>>60763640
It is possible a code things to scale with refresh rate, however the issue is that also takes more processing power. When you're very limited in processing power and have a unified ecosystem that up to this point did not have 120 Hz why in the fuck would you bother coding for 120 Hz if it's gonna make the game or application run worse?

We see a lot of games come to the PC as consul ports are limited to 30 FPS or 60 FPS, not because the engine can do higher frames but because everything's coded to only work at 60 at most. It might not be hard to alleviate that bottleneck but it still actual work people have to do what on an ecosystem where they don't fucking want to.
>>
>>60764714
you think I am going to waste my time rebutting your relativist definitions
>>
>>60763793
As for draining the battery, there's 2 things that do that. One of which is having a stupidly high resolution, as that demands more power to render what should be a very simple to the object, though hardware is gone to the point where the power that it takes to render at higher resolutions almost within margin of error it's still more power.

And then a higher refresh rate, it's the reason why e-readers can go weeks without being charged even on small as fuck batteries you get the screen set up once every couple of seconds to minutes and it's good to go indefinitely. This would allow the iPad to go from 60 Hz down to 24 Hz, and with future iterations possibly even lower I don't think anyone's ever really done a test that goes from 120 Hz to 60 and 30 in their power draw but I can easily imagine the hardware scaling back to only needing to display 24 frames a second would not only decrease power use but also the monitor refreshing would decrease power use, it's really hard to spin the set of bad thing.

The only real complaint that you can have from this is that they didn't get a panel that can run an even lower refresh rate.
>>
>>60764607

>>
>>60764049
You want to know how I know you've never use the high refresh rate monitor, I have a 144 and a 60 Hz right next to each other, if I drag-and-drop something on the 144 Hz it's smooth but if I take that file and move it over to the 60 Hz it feels like it's a stuttering mess anymore. Literally every fucking aspect of your computer becomes better the higher the refresh rate is.

To run a screen at 120 Hz need to have a GPU that's running at 120 Hz and you need to have the CPU able to feed the GPU, that demands power
Same thing for 60 Hz but to a lesser degree
now imagine your browsing the web, you scroll down and it's going at 120 Hz, then you stop scrolling it scales back to 24, and now it's using less power.

Now let's go over to YouTube, you play a video and now it's playing at 30 frames a 2nd your monitor decides I don't need to be running at 60 or 120 frames I'm going to run at 30, that is a lot of potential power that's being saved there granted relatively small and probably a sub 20% increase but it's a power savings that benefits you overall.
>>
>>60764707
Have you seen 60fps interpolated anime? Aside from the random artifacts, they look amazing. Also there is no excuse for any CGI movie to be less than 60fps.
>>
>>60764807
Battery drain also largely depends on third-party developers. Bad developers will constantly be requesting unneeded UI relayouts and unneeded repaints, sometimes to *the entire screen*. Apple has done things to try to mitigate this, having control of the whole stack, but in the end there's limits and devs just have to be good.

So if you're having battery issues with your iOS device, take a good look at the apps you're using. Generally speaking, the more native the UI the app is, the more likely it is to be efficiently written. Web wrapper apps are notorious offenders, but there are also some apps that just use a totally custom UI stack instead of UIKit and absolutely none of them are as efficient as UIKit.

I never said that the CPU was bad, I said the overall hardware was functionally gimped, which includes the toy operating system that you're forced to run on it.

This is actually great. About two years ago I bought a 144hz monitor and I've been spoiled since. I bought a cheap android phone that had a 30hz refresh rate and it literally made sick. The feeling of nausea I got was the result of the slow feedback of the screen. I returned it and got one for double the price with a 60hz refresh rate, and the experience was much more usable. If apple makes an iPhone with a 120hz screen I'll definitely switch from android. The iPad tho is a pretty shit idea and I'm not interested in one.

Come back when iPads run a full version of OS X or at the very least something other than a poorly scaled phone OS. iOS is straight garbage.

The pen on the current pro is 49 ms, a wacom cintiq has ~100ms input latency. Surface's stylus is 78 ms. This shit's best in class.

>>Refresh Rate also means it works better with Apple Pencil. 20ms latency.
huh? even 60Hz is only 16.6ms latency
>>
>>60767057
that's a good question
>>
>>60771112
16.6ms display latency in addition to whatever the processing latency is, numb nuts. 16.6 ms is the absolute minimum you can get if you could somehow get instantaneous 0.01ms lag on input. Processor improvements, software refinements, probably some pen hardware improvements, and the 8.3ms latency gain from the display all contribute.
>>
>>60771267
that's really cool and all, but why would the pen polling be limited to the display's refresh rate?
even consoles' from the 80's could be programmed to decouple input from the display refresh rate
>>
>>60768073
Does it have a smidgen of file system resiliency or data integrity?

It's stylistically preferred because we're used to shit technology (low frame video). Special effects need to improve dramatically because of the increased temporal information. It's easier to spot fake shit with more frames.

Does anyone even care about Android tabs anymore? Peak was nexus 7, but haven't heard since that one surface knockoff nexus flopped.
I don't hear a drop from Samsung about them, and haven't seen an Android tablet screenshot since ICS.

how are you still this retarded? does your operating system not scale properly?

If someone does a eDP board for this like for the iPad 3 when those screens where like $60 then I'd use one as a monitor

>costs more
>requires more power
>more expensive to fix or replace
>bad for static content that need imperfect scaling
>bad for games in terms of performance
>doesn't offer a benefit for casual computer use besides smoother edges on things

I mean it makes sense on a gaming setup that is designed for that. it benefits games, it's on a desktop so power isn't much of a concern, any system like that will have the GPU to back it up, it might have other monitors for different content etc.

it makes much less sense on a mobile device, especially if it's not a mobile workstation or gaming device. it's pretty much only for smooth edges where personally I think it's not worth it. UI elements not being completely smooth doesn't bother me. having to scale videos up or games down does. I would prefer the longer battery life too.

this is why I don't want more than 1080p on my small laptop, I'm even fine lower than that as long as the panel is good and it's not 640x480 or something.
>>
>>60762341
I wasn't expecting this. Actually pretty cool. I still probably will never buy a Tim Cuck era apple product, but if I ever want to buy an over expensive tablet this is the one I'll get.
>>
>>60764112
>10 hours is not enough?
frankly no. any device in 2017 should get 10 hours MINIMUM. closer to 20 or even over for casual use should be the goal. but you see it in phones too, no ones cares that you can only use your $800 phone for 4 hours.

Fuck that son.
Even if Android tablets lag behind, they still cost 1/4th the price. I mean my Note 10.1 tablet had QHD display and an S-Pen for what... 3 years now?

Would not ever waste so much money on a tablet as an iPad Pro.

I'd actually be really keen for it on macbooks.

I'd consider upgrading from my 2013 model.

>They can also dynamically adjust refresh rate based on what you're looking at. Which can save power.

So it will be a huge battery drain, and there will be an option to turn the refresh rate down, which everyone who wants >3 hours of battery life will do right out of the box? So it basically shouldn't exist? Great.
>>
>>60762341
That doesn't sound half bad but I wonder what it will actually be able to run on 120hz. They would have to make some major hardware upgrades from previous versions to get consistent 120hz. If they manage to pull through I may consider getting one.

>>60764159
Sounds like your videos are in a format not supported for hardware decoding so it is using the cpu which is horribly inefficient.

People still use tablets?

Anyway, this is good news. It's a fucking disgrace that most screens are still 60Hz.

Oh wow ok buy this 1200 dollar tablet instead of a 300 dollar monitor sure
