Display6.8-inch (171 mm) Super Actua LTPO OLED; 1344 × 2992, 486 ppi; 1–120 Hz; 2,200 nits HDR, 3,300 nits peak

An LTPO panel can drop to 1 Hz, so static content and the always-on display use less power; it rises to 120 Hz when scrolling.

Google		6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED; 2556 × 1179 at 460 ppi; Dynamic Island

Dynamic Island turns the front camera cut-out into an area for alerts and live activities. Apple does not list ProMotion for this model, so the screen is not 120 Hz.

Apple
Video8K 24/30 fps (with Video Boost, processed in the cloud); 4K 24/30/60 fps; 10-bit HDR video

Although the connector is USB-C, data runs at USB 2 speed, so moving large video files by cable takes longer than over the USB 3 port on the Pro models.

Apple
