Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ only support variable refresh rates of 48Hz-120Hz, not 10-120Hz

"In their initial press release, Samsung had sent the media that the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ were equipped with 10~120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays. However, 3 days later, Samsung has silently changed the details of the press release, now stating that the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ were equipped with only 48~120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays instead."

Less battery friendly usage it would seem.

A statement from Samsung states...

"While the display component of both devices support between 48 to 120Hz, Samsung’s proprietary technology offers adjustable display refresh rates, where data transfer rates from AP to display can be minimized to as low as 10Hz in order to save power consumption.

The display refresh rate was originally listed between 10 and 120Hz (10 to 120 frames per second), and we later opted to update how we communicate this specification in order to be in line with the more widely-recognized industry standard."
