    All else aside, what the heck do you need to waste battery power for on a 144hz phone screen? There’s no reason. Heck, I have a 120hz screen and turned it down to 60.

      I just meant, that having a higher powered refresh rate screen that can easily be toggled on/off is more refreshing than more on device AI, IMO.

        The ai stuff you can do with pictures on the pixel 9 is actually pretty nifty. I could see using that a lot more than a high refresh rate.

          I have a noob question, is backporting any of these camera features possible for Google to older Pixel phones or is there a technical limitation?

          I do agree about diminishing returns on high refresh rates. I have my current phone turned to 120 Hz and it gobbles up battery quite much.

            It would be possible, but it would be a lot slower and use up a lot more power. By my limited understanding, AI chips work by being able to do a lot of imprecise math at once, instead of normal chips designed to do precise math and not a lot at once.
