I’m comparing laptops that offer different display refresh rates and have seen claims that a higher setting can shorten battery life. How much does the refresh rate itself matter during ordinary work, such as browsing, writing, or watching video?
Does the impact depend more on the panel type, graphics hardware, or whether the screen can adjust its refresh rate dynamically? I’m trying to understand what to look for before choosing a display, rather than just assuming the highest number is always better.
