Guys this was me playing bowling the other day with my buddy every time I instructed him how to throw the ball he got a strike but otherwise... GUTTER BALL! But then I gutter balled when I went... just thought I'd mention that

Yeah, I suck at bowling

For sure, as a mobile device, limiting the refresh rate to 60hz could make some sense as battery is the most impoetant thing of all or else we would just use desktops. That being said, MacBook battery life is so good that it makes sense to lose a little for a smoother screen.

That being said, the 120hz on the pro models comes with variable refresh rate which can save more battery than constant 60 anyways, so you're right about that

I don't buy Apple when I want a good deal in that regard, I would likely go for a different brand if 120hz was a big deal for my enjoyment of the product. That being said, it's only like $300 more to upgrade to the Pro and you get more power, ports, battery life, and vastly better display technology.

60hz is extremely noticeable on a mobile device since the whole UI is gesture based and everything constantly moves around. On computers since the UI is stationary it matters significantly less although it's definitely nice to have.
