I just picked up a P4 XL panda from Best Buy, they had stock and a $100 gift card with purchase so I swapped the 3xl I bought for it. Has anyone tried forcing 90hz to be on at all times and of so, is there a noticeable difference in battery life? I know some features people say destroy battery life but in real use, they rarely cause any noticable difference. However, with the refresh, I'm thinking this may be different.

I would TBH... but that is just me. I usually am always able to charge due to work, truck, etc. so I wold want to enjoy that sweet 90 hz.

I have been using forced 90hz since Tuesday on the XL, battery life has been good. No idea the difference though, sorry.

If it was me i would leave it 90hz all the time

[dtones39]

I'm going to leave it on 90 and see how the battery fairs, too nice to have it off 80% if the time!

Yeah I agree, see how it goes !

Here is a video with forced 90hz and battery life. On pre release software. Kinda interesting take on battery life.

I've been running forced 90hz on my Pixel 4 since I got it and battery life is still good. Even slightly better than my Pixel 3

Maybe it's just my eyes, but I can't really see a huge difference between the 60 and 90hz display.

I can notice it instantly, scrolling is more like the iPhone, smooth scrolling but better. Haven't watched too many videos or games yet but should be better too.

Ok. I just did some visual tests, and I can definitely see a difference.

There definitely a difference, hope all phones have this in 2020 .

I don't force 90Hz. I keep my display brightness pretty high (around 83%) and have read that keeps it at 90Hz more. I haven't had any issues and like the way it runs as is, without forcing it.

I did force 90Hz to investigate something else, but that didn't solve an issue I had, and it ended up being something else.

I don't quite understand that. The difference is like night and day to me. I force it on now that I have seen how good it is...

[SARCtech]

I forced 90hz and honestly I can't see a difference either. Battery life didn't take a huge hit from what I could see. Since I couldn't notice a difference though I turned off 90hz totally and have it set on 60hz.

I forced 90hz on my XL and have not noticed any battery issues. Really impressed with the phone so far.

[strikeIII]

I force 90hz. I'm always near a charger so I haven't actually tested the battery life yet.

[mustang7757]

Question for the pixel 4 owners , in battery save mode does it go back to 60hz ?

[jimmynexus]

I force 90hz, coming from a OnePlus 7 pro, this is something I loved. I'm always near a charger though, I did try a whole days use, and easily got me through my daily phone use.

[neil74]

I have tried the force option, add me to the list of those who cannot see any difference!

[y2whisper]

I too have it forced on just because I'm used to having chargers around throughout the day

Me too.
