I agree. We're talking about a device that most people use to watch video though, so they're not going to really be revving it beyond 24hz.

120hz screens are great, but if I didn't play first-person shooters with my friends then I'd have no reason to use mine. Like I said, an OLED panel makes much more sense for the iPad, and arguably the Macbook Pro.

Interesting. I don't use my iPad for video much, but I'm going to assume you're right and I'm in the minority. In that case, a nice benefit for cinephiles is that 120 Hz is an integer multiple of 24 Hz, while 60 Hz is not.

60hz is an integer multiple of 24hz when you use LTPO displays, like the ones offered with OLED panels.
