It’s time for Apple to let go of 60Hz displays

Apple continues restricting 120Hz displays to its premium Pro models nearly a decade after introducing the technology, creating price gaps that discourage upgrades. The iPad Air costs $599-799 but offers only 60Hz displays, while 120Hz requires jumping to the $999+ iPad Pro—a $400 increase most consumers won't make. Similarly, MacBook Air buyers at $999 must spend $1599 for Pro models to get smoother displays, despite most competing laptops offering 120Hz at lower prices, suggesting Apple should expand this technology to its mid-range products.
