Hi @All!
So my question is: Are there any hints that ProMotion will come to the iPhone this year?
Best regards

No. That seems more exclusive to the iPad Pro line and I don’t forsee this happening for the iPhone.
True Tone was also exclusive to the 2016 iPad Pro until it was brought to iPhones a year later with the X and 8 models. With that in mind it’s not improbable to suggest the same may be true for ProMotion being brought to the iPhone models this year.

True Tone and Promotion are not mutually exclusive features that you can compare. True tone is actually fairly simple feature that just alters the display to make it more comfortable for reading, it make sense that Apple would express that feature across different iOS products, as its just a dispay setting. Promotion made absolute sense to lessen the stutter on the iPad for refresh rates and responsiveness, Which was discusssd for years to reduce the lagginess. It possible _could_Apple introduce that to the iPhone? Maybe, but again; I highly doubt that.
And why would you highly doubt it? Why wouldn’t they want another iPad feature brought over to their iPhones if it reduces lag like you pointed out? I think that’s the next step towards improving their iPhone displays. There’s already the razor phone that runs at 120Hz and the recent Asia ROG which runs at 90Hz with an OLED display so things are heading in that direction anyway. It’s the next evolutional step in display technology which smartphones are already starting to adopt and I believe Apple kickstarted it with their iPad Pros.
Apple is the most unpredictable company in the world, they may or may not follow the trend of what any other tech manufacturer does in terms of implementing certain software hardware features. At minimum, I think it would have been reasonable if we have heard a rumor from a reliable insider, in which one we primarily have not.
I’m not saying I don’t welcome the idea of Promotion for the iPhone, I just question if Apple will conflate one feature from an iPad to the iPhone or vice versa. I could also make the same argument maybe they want Promotion to be exclusive the iPad Pro, as it really is a major selling feature for those who do appreciate it as an upgrade Over the base iPad models.
I remember the same being said about TrueTone and how it wouldn’t benefit a smaller screen.
OLED displays which may be what is holding them back then I can understand why they can’t.
Who said that? A verified source or just forum members with an opinion on what they would like to see?
OLED seems nothing more than a fantasy at this point, I don’t know that Apple even would have the manufacturers lined up to meet the demands for various iPad Pro models that support OLED, which I believe they will use LCD long as possible until micro LED is ready.

It’s not just a display setting, FYI. Hardware is involved.
FTR, We weren’t discussing hardware, we were discussing software implementation between cross transfer of True-Tone, Being it is a *toggled* iOS feature.
Yeah I didn't get that from your response at all, but ok. True Tone is a hardware feature. It requires specific hardware to be able to toggle on/off the feature, so...

William, You’re repeating yourself, no need to rehash what you posted twice. Also, No one ever _didn't_ acknowledge that true tone isn’t hardware based, but the point of why I (And the other Member) said it’s a ‘software discussion’, is because it discussed the implementation of promotion and cross hatching between devices of how True Tone was used from the iPad and iPhone. There is the recap of what the Discussion was about since you needed to duplicate what you posted two times.
Browsing is smoother on 120hz. The animations and entire feel of the tablet is smoother on 120hz.What's the argument for having ProMotion on the iPhone? Other than, "iPad has it, so iPhone should get it"?
The main purpose of ProMotion is to reduce input lag from the Pencil. When iPhone is compatible with Pencil, then it would make sense to have ProMotion.
Typical video content being played on iPhone is 24, 30, or 60 FPS. Unless consumers are watching a lot of 120 FPS videos, adding ProMotion doesn't benefit many consumers.

No idea, but I would trade 3D Touch for ProMotion anytime.Hi @All!
