How do I adjust the refresh rate to 120hz on my Razer Phone 2? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
To unlock all the stunning benefits of the Razer Phone 2's 120 Hz UltraMotion™ screen, be sure your refresh rate is set to 120hz. To adjust your refresh rate, go to the Phone's "Settings", navigate down to "Display", select "Refresh Rate" and choose the "120Hz" option. Please note, some older games may have issues playing on the 120hz settings. For games such as Jetpack and Sonic 2, you can select the games within Razer Game Booster and set the default rate to 60Hz for those specific games. Once that is selected within Game Booster those games will automatically default to 60Hz without affecting the refresh rate on other applications. Higher refresh rates may also have some minor effects on battery life. |
