Apple Vision Pro is now official, and while Apple was scant with the tech specs of its headset during the official announcement, a few details are slowly being revealed as part of WWDC developer sessions running throughout the week.
A big question mark on Apple Vision Pro specs was its displays’ refresh rate. The dual display setup is already impressive, with each display sporting more pixels than a typical 4K screen panel for a total of 23 million pixels. However, Apple was careful not to reveal the displays’ refresh rate during its presentation on Monday, with the company’s representatives remaining tight-lipped during the private demos given out to attending media after the event.
A new developer session might have finally answered this question. In a 17-minute session titled “Deliver video content for spatial experiences,” the presenter is quoted as saying, “The display’s refresh rate is 90 Hertz, And for 24-frames-per-second video, a special 96-hertz mode may be used automatically.” 24 is a factor of 96, unlike 90, which means videos shot at 24fps are less likely to appear jittery with a 96Hz refresh rate instead of 90Hz. The session also briefly mentions that Apple Vision Pro natively supports HDR content.
