After owning the Xiaomi MI 10T Lite for about 3 months I just discovered you need to activate the 120Hz refresh rate. I feel incredibly stupid.

It’s fine. The joys of discovering cool features we didn’t know about before. Now you can enjoy your phone,with butter. Now you’re experience will improve after today.
Ya I did the same thing… I was like “this 120hz is a gimmick” until I realized it was off by default… We’re all schmucks sometimes..
Yeah but I knew about 120Hz, and just thought I couldn’t see the difference, until now.
200 iq
You are
Same for the poco X3 or Xiaomi in general.
Suprise !!!
So then the question is: Did you notice the difference? Is it really that big?
Lol
Bruhhhhhhhhh, happened to my cousin when he bought the s20plus 😅
I suffered from shitty audio quality on the headphones of my my mi9t for half a year. Turned out I had enabled mono audio and forgot about it lmao
Can you feel the difference now ? Also tell us about how it impacted the battery life
double the framerate, double the power consumption of the gpu, and the screen need to work twice as much.
Well that means you couldn’t tell it wasn’t on which means having it on means worse battery for little gains.
Don’t feel stupid. Of course you would expect to have it this feature enabled by default when Xiaomi advertises it all over.
They don’t enable it because it ruins battery life. So they want to have their cake and eat it, too – get reviews for great battery life and for “having a 120Hz screen” as well, even though the two are mutually exclusive.
It’s fine, I just use 120hz. My phone also came with 60hz enabled due to battery life.
its not your fault, its xiaomi for not enabling a feature that is one of the main reasons this phone sells so well
Gotta scroll FB with 120Hz speed. Hell yeah!
Free upgrade
Don’t worry, I literally discovered that the 90Hz of my Mi10 was also not activated 2 days ago.
I was like, well to be honest I don’t see the difference from my previous one… and well, it was that, was off by default until 2 days ago and I own the phone for 5? months or so now.
I had 90hz deactivated on my mi 10 due to battery efficiency.
Activated it out of curiosity right now and I’ll never change it back.
Fuck, bought my stepson x3 4 months ago, where do you activate it.
Settings > Display
At least I think that’s how. I haven’t used a Xiaomi branded device in a year.
You can’t miss what you never knew.
Turning it does have a big impact on perceived responsiveness.
Same with my 144Hz Computermonitor. Looking back I can hardly believe I ever gamed on a 60Hz Screen. Worlds apart.
Yeah but if you’ve just got a new phone and the new one doesn’t feel any different to use screen smoothness wise then you’ve not missed anything.
As for pcs.. it depends on the game lol. No point having 144hz on a strategy game! Nor a long drawn out military shooter. Hell let loose for one. It maybe an FPS. But you vary rarely find yourself needing lighting fast reactions.
As well as the whole resolution argument. I’d much rather play games at 4k 60 than 1080p 144hz. The 1080p part ruins the immersion more.
Then again 4k 144hz displays exist lol and that’s my sweet spot.
It’s fine op, it took me 6 months to realize that I need to activate the 90hz refresh rate in my xiaomi mi 10. Felt like an idiot using 60hz for six months and claiming how it’s a lot “smoother”.
What a fool..
*quickly enables 120hz on his mi10t lite that he read this on*
Oops
Make sure to play games that take advantage of 120 fps.
> Xiaomi MI 10T Lite
> 4820mAh Li-Po
> IPS LCD, 120Hz, HDR10, 450 nits (typ)
the IPS panel would eat around 70% of the battery and 4800mAh wasnt huge as Xiaomi’s previous year standard battery of 4000mAh, and 6000mAh for their biggest battery right now.
There is a big difference yeah, but the phone doesn’t have amoled, which I would prefer.
Same ahaha
You are indeed.
Thanks
Like me u must have upgraded to a latest smartphone after what seems like a decade.
I am. It aware of many developments tht happned in smartphone
It’s noticeably different. As to battery life, it affects it a lot. Nevertheless, I just charge my phone once a day up.to 80% when it gets to 20%. It takes me little more than 20/30 minutes with the turbo charger it comes with. All in all, with a single daily charge I’m off to use it the whole day without worrying about it even though I’ll be out all day on the road and have a beautiful and excellent screen experience. I believe the opportunity cost of having more battery /screen time is much higher than the one of enjoying that beautiful 120hz refresh rate. Besides, if you use your phone from 100% to 5/10% and use battery saver you’ll surely have a day and a half worth of battery life at least, depending on your usage (again, I consider myself a heavy user). Plus, if you are short on battery and are on the go, just enable ultra battery saver and you’ll have hours and hours worth of extra battery life.
Where did you get it?
I used it today and didn’t notice much difference. I mean, I’m not a intense user.
I.didnt activate it…. Prefer the battery.
Good reviews usually test them thoroughly in both 60 and max rr mode.
> thought I couldn’t see the difference
Better this way than bragging how 120Hz has changed your life
Meh it’s ok, maybe 144Hz is nicer but I’m fine with 60 to be honest.
