Some modern TVs can refresh at double this rate, or Hz frames per second. That just depends on the electricity in your country. For the purposes of this article, 50 and 60 work the same, as do and For my own sanity, and ease of reading, I'm going to stick with 60 and , but feel free to read that as 50 and if you're in the UK, Australia or any place that has 50Hz electricity. So are these higher refresh numbers just another "more is better! Not entirely. Interestingly, this blur is largely created by your brain.
Basically, your brain notices the motion, and makes assumptions as to where that object or overall image is going to be in the next fraction of a second. The problem with LCD and current OLED TVs is that they hold that image there for the full 60th of a second, so your brain actually smears the motion, thinking it should be moving, when in fact it's just a series of still images.
It's actually quite fascinating, but the details are beyond the scope of this article. I recommend checking out BlurBuster's great article for more info. The motion blur we're talking about here, despite coming from your brain, is caused by how the television works. This is separate from whatever blur the camera itself creates. Some people aren't bothered by motion blur. Some don't even notice it. Others, like me, do notice it and are bothered by it. Fortunately, it can be minimized. Refresh rate itself is really only part of the solution.
Just doubling the same frames doesn't actually do much for reducing motion blur. Something else is needed. There are two main methods. The first is frame interpolation, where the TV itself creates brand-new frames that are sort of hybrids of the frame that came before, and the one that comes after.
This can fool your brain enough that it doesn't blur the image. Depending how aggressive the interpolation is, however, it can lead to the soap opera effect , which makes movies look like ultra-smooth reality TV shows. Some viewers like the effect, but it's generally hated by film buffs and others who pay close attention to image quality.
There are different levels of this processing, where a little might reduce motion blur some, and not cause undue harm to the quality of the image. Or on the other end of the "dial," it's cranked up so that there's even less motion blur, but the movement is hyper-realistic and for many, distractingly unreal.
Some TVs let you choose how much of this processing gets applied to the image, others have just a single setting. More on these settings further down. And is there a way to change it? Your Samsung TV will have a refresh rate of either 60Hz or Hz, which means that it will either reproduce 60 frames per second or frames per second. If you have an older Samsung TV model, the odds are that it can only support the 60Hz refresh rate. When you have a Samsung TV that supports a higher refresh rate, you can alternate between 60Hz and Hz for the optimal viewing experience.
But how do you find the Auto Motion Plus option? All you have to do is follow these steps:. That kind of image might be off-putting and appear quite unnatural. While this can also trick your brain into seeing smoother motion, it will make your screen darker. All major TV manufacturers use different names for their frame interpolation or black frame insertions features. Every modern TV has a refresh rate of either 60Hz or Hz.
While 60Hz TVs are good enough for watching almost any videos without any problem, Hz TVs are usually better for watching movies and playing video games. Shop: Amazon. If you are looking for a gaming TV, a refresh rate of 60Hz is good enough for older consoles.
This feature will sync the refresh rate of your TV and the frame rate of your game in real-time. So, if the frame rate of your game drops, your TV will automatically switch to a lower refresh rate.
