The iPhone 13 Pro and its "Max" version have added to their screens a technology that users have been demanding for years, refresh rates equal to or greater than 120 Hz. In this way, they are equal in this section to many phones Android of different ranges that already have this system.
However, the great concern of many users in this regard was precisely the battery consumption, something that Apple has shown to have contained to such an extent that the new models consume less battery even than those that do not have ProMotion screens. Nonetheless, We show you how you can disable the 120 Hz ProMotion of the iPhone 13 Pro and save more battery.
We have several formulas to carry out this adjustment that will save us considerable battery, so we are going to show you the two main methods that you can carry out in different ways, they are very simple, so do not miss it.
Permanently disable ProMotion (120Hz)
This function is somewhat "hidden" and it will allow us to permanently deactivate the ProMotion function, at least until we activate it again, you must follow the following instructions.
- Enter Settings and go to the Accessibility section
- Inside Accessibility look for the Movement section and enter the setting
- In the last option, deactivate the switch that indicates «limit the frame rate»
This will automatically limit the refresh rate to 60Hz permanently, as if you didn't have the ProMotion feature.
Temporarily disable ProMotion (120Hz) with battery saver mode
This second option is the simplest of all and will last until you disable it only. You already know that the low consumption or battery saving mode of the iPhone deactivates some functionalities in order to save battery, And that's exactly what happens with the ProMotion feature of the iPhone. While we are running low power mode the refresh rate will freeze at 60Hz.
Wouldn't it be the other way around? If it is activated it is limited to 60 but if it is deactivated it is used to 120, right? I understand it roasted at least. In mine it is disabled by default in fact ...
Good Morning.
One question I have ... Wouldn't it be the other way around? Leaving the "limit frame rate" option enabled limits the screen refresh to 60 ...
I do not understand what to delete my two comments when in doubt, instead of answering it, but hey, I still think that it is the other way around to limit the refresh rate to 60hz.
Whatever you put, it won't let me send it so. very good job of the one who has written the text putting things that do not have logic and preventing, without bad faith, comment.
Shouldn't the option be checked to limit the refresh to 60hz and not unchecked as the text says?
