- Touch sampling rate refers to the number of times a screen refreshes itself to register a user’s touch input in one second.
- It is a very important display concept that determines how well a smartphone screen responds to your touches and scrolls.
- The touch sampling rate is measured in Hz, with the levels going beyond 240Hz.
- A display’s 120Hz touch sampling rate, for example, means that the screen can refresh 120 times in a second as you scroll, touch and swipe.
- The touch sampling rate is very important because it determines the usual operation of the phone.
- It also highly matters when it comes to mobile gaming.
- Gaming latency refers to the delays and lagging that occur as you play mobile games.
- With a low touch sampling rate, the screen takes longer to respond to your touches which makes it very frustrating.
