120Hz on Android IMO is: try once, say "damn that's smooth" and then disable to save battery life.

I only ever used Pixels as android phones, so my experience is limited to that.

120Hz on Snapdragon/Mediatek Android phones works great with little impact to battery life. Pixels are hobbled by the poor power efficiency of their Tensor chips.

genuine question; why would you do that lol? phones easily get full day battery nowadays, and flagships get 2 day battery if your usage is anything but insane

The only way any phone gets more than 1 day of battery is when you don't use it. In which case, why you care that if it's 120 or 60hz.

I'm back to iPhone now tho, so I get a full-day-ish with pro-motion under a normal usage.
