Shortly after OnePlus revealed that through its collaboration with Samsung, it has developed a 120Hz display tech for future products, known tipster Ice Universe has some interesting information surrounding the aforementioned refresh rate. Apparently, the OnePlus 8 Pro’s 120Hz mode will be somewhat better than the Galaxy S20’s 120Hz one, which makes us wonder if companies are using software limitations to cripple the user experience.

If you remember, we reported earlier that Samsung is rumored to prevent the Galaxy S20’s 120Hz mode from running at the flagship’s maximum WQHD+ resolution. According to the Ice Universe, the OnePlus 8 Pro’s 120Hz feature won’t present such a limitation, suggesting that Samsung may be locking down the smartphone’s full potential using software. It’s more than possible that the company issues a software update later down the road, allowing users to enable the 120Hz refresh at the WQHD+ resolution, but for now, it’s limited to Full HD+, assuming the rumor is true.
