Last week's Samsung presentation gave us a lot of new devices, but nevertheless, some important unannounced innovations of the new flagship smartphones remained behind the scenes. So, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Z Fold 2 models were the first devices to receive an adaptive screen refresh rate, said XDA editor-in-chief Mishaal Rahman on his Twitter account, referring to the YouTube channel TheTechChap (timecode 1:46).

The dynamic approach will save battery power by automatically changing the refresh rate depending on the content displayed on the screen: for text display, it will drop to 1-11 Hz, movies - from 24 to 60 Hz, and for games from 30 to 120 Hz. We will find out very soon how this will affect the real autonomy of the flagship Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
