Smartphone displays are getting better day by day and AMOLED screens are becoming all the more common. These screens are getting faster as well thanks to high refresh rates. LTPO displays are essentially more responsive, power-efficient panels that are better suited for VRR or variable refresh rate implementation. LTPO stands for low-temperature polycrystalline oxide and is a type of backplane technology being used and developed for AMOLED screens. So, here are some of the best phones with an LTPO screen.
Samsung S21 Ultra 5G
This is the latest flagship smartphone from Samsung, and you can expect it to have all the latest bells and whistles in the mobile world. The smartphone features a dynamic AMOLED 2X display and a WQHD+ resolution. This makes the display one of the best in the market, making it incredible for watching movies, content and playing games. Not just that, the display is an LTPO panel, which means that depending on what’s on-screen, the refresh rate will automatically vary. This helps conserve battery life and leads to better performance. Apart from that, the smartphone has a quad-camera setup at the back and features flagship-level internals. Particularly impressive is the 10 MP sensor with 3x optical zoom telephoto lens.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G
If you like having a large phone, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is perhaps the best pick for you. It is one of the very few phones which still comes with a stylus pen, and a space to store it in the body of the phone. When paired with the 6.9-inch dynamic AMOLED screen, and the LTPO functionality, you get a display that’s rich, colour accurate, detailed and also highly efficient. Screens take up a major chunk of the battery on a phone, and with the help of LTPO, they become more efficient. Not just that, the phone comes with 12 GB of RAM, meaning you can efficiently multitask and make good use of the large screen.
OnePlus 9 Pro 5G
This is one of the hottest smartphones right now, and for good reason. It comes with really good cameras, amazing software, a great display, and a nice design as well. At the back, you get 4 cameras which were developed in collaboration with Hasselblad. The display is a fluid AMOLED screen with a variable refresh rate, making it all the more efficient. Top this with the Snapdragon 888 chipset and 12GB of RAM, and you’ve got a phone which won’t go down so easy.
Apple iPhone 13 Pro
Apple first used the LTPO technology on the Apple Watch Series 4, and the company has brought the technology to iPhones as well. This is especially true on the iPhone 13 Pro, which is the first iPhone that sports a refresh rate higher than 60Hz. What’s interesting is that the highest it goes is 120Hz, but it isn’t locked there. Depending on what’s on your screen, the LTPO panel can switch refresh rates to conserve the battery. For static content, the screen can drop down to as low as a 1-10Hz refresh rate. The entire process is so seamless you don’t even know it's happening.
