How to Show Refresh Rate on Google Pixel 7
This post will walk you through displaying the Pixel 7’s refresh rate on screen. Here’s a quick guide to show the refresh rate on the new Google Pixel 7 smartphone.
Android Smartphones Refresh Rate
Modern electronic displays like high-end smartphones and tablets typically have higher refresh rates, resulting in faster screen responses and refreshes. High-performance gaming monitors are also known to have high refresh rates that lead to smoother navigation and more improved gaming and entertainment experience.
Available refresh rate options in most of the modern smartphones include standard, high and adaptive.
Some devices however, can be locked to a 120 Hz refresh rate that results in more battery usage but benefits in terms of giving a fast refresh rate.
If you find the need to boost your phone’s refresh rate to enable faster scrolling and smoother animations, then you can just tweak the default Display settings.
- To access and manage this option on your Pixel 7, just head over to Settings-> Display menu. Scroll down to the Other Display controls section then tap to turn on the Smooth Display switch.
When enabled, the refresh rate of your phone will automatically increase from 60 Hz up to 120 Hz for some content.
The only downside that you have to note about having a higher refresh rate is an increased battery usage. That said, expect your phone’s battery to drain faster than usual with a higher refresh rate. You can always switch back to the standard refresh rate to reduce battery usage.
And that’s all about displaying the refresh rate on the Google Pixel 7 screen.
