Feature guide
How ProMotion changes the iPhone experience
What Is ProMotion?
ProMotion is Apple's adaptive high-refresh-rate display technology.
Unlike standard 60Hz displays, ProMotion can refresh at up to 120 times per second, creating smoother scrolling, animations, and gameplay.
Why Does ProMotion Matter?
The higher refresh rate makes the entire interface feel faster and more responsive.
Whether you're scrolling through websites, playing games, or switching between apps, ProMotion creates a noticeably smoother experience.
Which iPhones Have ProMotion?
ProMotion is currently reserved for Apple's Pro-series iPhones, beginning with the iPhone 13 Pro lineup.
Should You Prioritise ProMotion?
For many users, yes. Once you've used a 120Hz display regularly, it can be difficult to return to a standard 60Hz screen.
It is not essential, but it makes an iPhone feel faster and more premium even when the chip is not doing anything dramatic.
Smoother scrolling, more responsive animations, better gaming feel, and a more premium user experience.
