    They are holding back features on the base models to upsell their Pro models. And you are absolutely right about fake 120hz even on Pro model iPhones. There are some videos on it on Youtube. I have personally used a 13 Pro and I can confirm that it barely even reaches 90hz in all of Apple’s own apps (including Safari) and even in many third party apps (including Whatsapp, Instagram and Spotify). I don’t see the point of 120hz if the display goes to 80-90hz max most of the time. Scrolling in Settings or Safari is 80-90hz and feels very choppy compared to Samsung flagships with 120hz, all of which give true 120hz when needed. And some people with pea sized brains still defend Apple and say that it’s adaptive refresh rate so it won’t stay at 120 all the time in order to save battery, but what they don’t understand is the display should go to full 120hz when you are scrolling and immediately return to a low refresh rate whenever scrolling is complete.
