Even the smallest details in the flagship smartphone competition can make phones more preferred by users. That’s why phone manufacturers are trying to add the best technologies they have to flagship phones. Huawei’s flagship P40 Pro, which was announced recently, was one click behind its competitors in terms of screen refresh rate. While brands such as Samsung and Oppo, Huawei’s competitors in this area, provide 120Hz screen refresh rate on their flagship phones, Huawei announced the P40 Pro with a screen with a 90Hz refresh rate. Huawei did not prefer the 120 Hz display to avoid battery life After the P40 Pro’s 90Hz screen refresh rate caused a controversy among flagship enthusiasts, the company’s CEO Yu Chengdong announced the reasons for the 90Hz screen refresh rate preference at the P40 and P40 Pro launch in China on April 8. Chengdong said that the Huawei P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus are capable of having a 120Hz screen refresh rate. The CEO said, however, that they preferred the 90Hz screen refresh rate over 120Hz because of battery optimization and “other reasons.” Huawei CEO did not say why the screen refresh rate is not an option that can be determined by the user on flagship phones. In its statement at the Chinese launch, Chengdong did not explain what other reasons were for the P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus to prefer the 90Hz refresh rate on their screen. 90 Hz may be the best choice for Huawei under current conditions Huawei CEO suggested that the 90Hz screen refresh rate of P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus provides a much better screen experience than phones with similar refresh rates. Also, Huawei does not think there is a difference in utopian user experience between 90 Hz and 120 Hz. If the screen refresh rate is not one of the most important features for you, we can say that the screen of P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus offers the expected quality for a flagship. It is not easy to understand the difference between 120Hz and 90Hz screen refresh rates under normal conditions.
