Sure I get the whole "well if its there I'll take it" mentality but I never once swiped my iphone 6s and said "god damn that is slow and unresponsive"......but games, what are these games of which you speak? I thought they literally stopped making anything but time-waster types like half a decade ago, or am I just living under the wrong rocks.......
You're living under the wrong rocks. A higher refresh rate screen would be a huge boon to gaming on the iPhone. Apple Arcade is a haven for mobile games. No game on the service is allowed to have in-game purchases. Not to mention major mobile games like PUBG, Genshin Impact, Fort....COD Mobile. A ton of actual games could benefit from a faster screen.
On a more personal note: For as smooth as iPhones are, having gone from the 60hz iPhone 11 Pro to a 120hz Note 20 Ultra, the difference in smoothness is night and day. I noticed it immediately. For general use I wouldn't say it's a deal-breaker feature, but it does feel like going from a 60hz monitor to a 120hz one. I don't need a 120+hz monitor to do my normal day-to-day tasks but going back to 60hz would feel like a huge loss in comparison.
