Does Pokemon GO Support 120Hz Displays?
Last updated
Ever wondered if your speedy 120Hz display gets to flex its muscles with Pokemon GO? Let’s dive into that curiosity and uncover the truth about Pokemon GO and its compatibility with high-refresh-rate screens.
For those on the quest to find out whether Pokemon GO runs smoother than a Squirtle on a water slide on those fancy 120Hz displays, you’ve come to the right place.
Short Answer: Yes and No
Pokemon GO, the game that turns your daily walk into an adventure by catching Pokemons, actually does not officially support 120Hz displays in the way hardcore gamers might hope. However, this doesn’t mean the game won’t run on phones with high-refresh-rate screens.
While the game itself is locked at a lower frame rate to ensure a consistent experience across all devices and save on battery life, it still benefits from the smoother scrolling and responsive feel that comes with 120Hz displays when navigating menus or the map. So, it’s a yes and no situation.
