    How much of a difference does 120hz screen make?

    One thing I noticed on iOS is when you compare the older iPhone screens which have the IPS panel with the newer OLED panels running at 60Hz, you'll notice that older panels appear more smoother and the new OLED appears a bit choppy, both on 60Hz, I think this is because OLED have insanely fast...
