I guess one could switch on low power mode to limit it to 60 Hz. Not very hopeful though because I’ve read of 13/14 Pro users getting crazy lag when on low power.
Oh that detail helps. My partner complained that her 14 Pro was not right: slow while typing in iMessage and FB Messenger. When I tried her phone later I had no issues. I’m going to have to check her Focus and Shortcuts for low power mode.
I wish there was an option to limit it to 60 Hz. You’d still have the benefits of variable refresh rates, but with lower battery consumption.

sigh This option shouldn’t be hidden in accessibility.
Does it reduce the frame rate to 60 HZ?

I have the normal iPhone 15 so can’t test it, but according to people, low normal mode introduces a lot of lag.
It just feels weird that regular iPhones are the one to recommend right now.

14 Pro User here.
Yes. It’s crazy. Typing in any app makes it lag, no matter if iMessage, Mail, WhatsApp, internet, in here, Notes…
The rest is lag-less. So as long as you don’t type you’re good using power saving mode.
