60 FPS cap on Brawl Stars - ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers

Last Brawl Stars update enabled 120hz gameplay on the ROG Phone 2, but it seems I have a 60 fps cap, as if I was playing with any other phone. I have the Tencent version, and yes, I made sure I had my refresh rate on 120hz and everything. Will updating my phone solve the issue? What do you think? The version I'm running is 1908.12, thanks for your help.

version 1910.52_0 is the same thing

I have the tencent version with 1910.35 WW rom. I read about the specific update to give support for ROG phones and was super excited even before buying the phone as this is my favorite game, but as you say, it just goes at 60 fps and nothing more. I have been searching if there is actually any real support for 120hz or even 90hz, but found not real proof of the game going over 60fps. Please let us know if any of you have more information about this.

Do you have WW fingerprint as well?

Yes, I converted it to WW. Can you play other games at 90 or 120 fps? The funny thing is that even fallout shelter (a 2015 game or so) goes sooo smooth when switching to 120hz; even when game genie tells it has only 60fps, I believe that number is wrong as I can definitely tell a huge difference when using the highest refresh rate. However, this does not happen with brawl stars.

Yes, I've tried other games and they work at 120hz with no problem. It's really weird. I asked some guy on reddit who claimed he had a ROG and was playing at 120hz, and he told me he didn't have the Tencent version, so maybe this particular version is not unlocked, I don't know how.

Fortnite 60fps

Anyone give it a go yet?
What do you think? Better yet, has anyone directly compared 60fps on Note vs the XS Max?
Looks like its only available for the US variant. Probably only Snapdragon. Tried it no 60fps on exynos.
Kind of expected. Uninstalled...
Since the XS Max got a 120Hz screen I wonder if it can actually got beyond 60Hz.

The snapdragon 945 GPU is around 35% faster in fortnite (and most GPU tasks), so no surprise here. Comparing to the iphone xs is pointless tho as the GPU in the A12 is faster sustained vs the benchmark PEAK performance in sd855 (yep, not a type - sd855, so you can guess where this puts the sd845, especially sustained).

No iPhone have 120hz refresh rate, only their iPads. If you want that Razer 2 offers that.

So it's a faux 120hz refresh the display itself is still 60hz unlike the iPad Pros. https://beebom.com/iphone-xs-xs-max-xr-120hz-touch-sensing/ From this article, it looks like it only increases touch response.

Oh I understand now. Thanks.
Sorry for the confusion.
Well it plays pretty amazing! Some stutter at high graphics setting so had to turn down to low graphics and keep the 60fps.
Quite incredible actually! Huge advantage against 30fps players. Got 14 eliminations easily in team rumble.

Yeah, the difference between 30 and 60fps for a first person shooter is quite big. Sadly not only the exynos note 9 doesn't support 60fps, but it also on the last versions is locked to maximum high GFX (EPIC is grayed out). So samsung thinks it's fair to sell you for more money a phone that has the same name, but can go maximum to high 30fps (it's also not smooth on that settings) while the other one go epic 60fps? Ok

Yep, on the iphones it's just the digitizer that goes to 120Hz vs the regular 60Hz touch reading. This actually is awesome and really great in both UI and gaming, the touch latency is quite a lot lower + it tracks you better/faster/accurate.

120hz mode not affecting games

hello! I just got my brand new ROG phone 2 today and have been testing my apps and games since then. Everything works normal, the 120hz screen is as buttery smooth as everyone says, but when playing games I just can't notice any real difference between playing with a regular 60hz phone and this one. I have very few knowledge about the topic but I understand that the refresh rate and the in-game fps are different, however I supposed that using the 120hz mode should also increase the number of fps shown by the in-game stats, but in every game I test it always shows 60fps at maximum. I use to play Brawl Stars (a relatively low graphics game) a lot, and I noticed they posted about the recent launch of an update specifically made to give support to the 120hz refresh rate on the ROG phone 2, but It just goes to 60fps. I already tried setting the refresh rate to 120hz in the armoury crate app for the games but saw no difference. Is there any configuration or tweak I'm missing?. Oh, and I got the 8/128GB Tencent version. Thanks for your help.

That's because the games are capped at 60FPS by the developers. So, even though your screen can go 120Hz, it'll only be as high as the game itself.
Try these 120Hz games:
Trials Frontier
Mortal Kombat
Gear Club
DEAD Trigger 2

Thank you. I tried with Trials Frontier and for my surprise it goes up to 120fps I wonder why even the one that comes preinstalled with the device (Asphalt 9) can't go over 60fps

90hz pubg

Anyone managed to enable 90Hz on pubg
the phone doesn't support 90hz by default, there is a dev in the apps and themes section with an app that says it can give us 90, I've not tried it. it's a trial app
PubG doesn't even run at 90hz on the PC. Why do you all think it works on a smartphone?

when pubg was released there was one or two phones that did 90hz, I think it was the only mobile game that made use of it at the time.

maybe he wants the extra edge a smoother frame rate gives you in a game, maximum frame rate in PubG mobile is 90hz, so 60 and 120 are a bit useless if you want to be a god of murdering
I have similar problem with Need For Speed - No Limits on my s20fe 5g Snapdragon.
The game stuck at 30 fps, it doesn't go higher. But on my redmi k40 pro it does run at higher fps.
Anyone know what is the problem.

Question Exynos 2100 pubg

I don't know why no body is talking on this , but the Exynos version of s21 ultra does not have an option to play at 90hz .
Also , we cannot play at uhd resolution and HDR is just limited to 40 fps ..
Where as on sd888 you can do it all .

The device barely handle 60fps.
My assumption it's not ready for 90 or uhd which fine by me, i never cared how much fps I'm running...i keep losing .
But you shouldn't have opt for the E2100 if you are interested in gaming tbh.

I have not bought the device yet , my region offer Exynos only ,
I am confused between this Exynos variant and OnePlus 9 pro .
I am getting both of them at a similar price , actually OnePlus doesn't deserve that price due to its poor software management and bugs and a relatively new company

After disabling the Samsung game optimizing service it easily handles 60 fps though... And it actually can run 90fps given how it runs LOL at 120 fps steadily..... It won't have a problem running smooth 90fps other than heating.

There's a lot of videos on YouTube regarding the process one from The Golden Reviewer as well.... You can do that through your pc's cmd prompt for free or purchase the package disabler pro on your phone through their website to make it easier.

What difference would it make to gaming ?
Is it anything better than intalling game plugins and game booster plus and tweaking settings?

Yes it indeed makes it better because it doesn't let samsung throttle its performance as low as it does normally. Everyone testing it on exynos version has appreciated the difference.

You are talking about disabling the game optimization ?
Or
Installing the game booster plugin and setting to max fps?

Disabling the game optimization is what I was talking about... As for tweaking the game booster and plugins ... It doesn't help much after a certain point.

Yes, the game lags when I play the game for just 5 mins. Performance is very bad with the snapdragon 888 processor.

It's not the processor, it's the phone. Because I have an rog 5 and a legion and it both runs at 120fps Witt no lag.
Facing the same problem, snapdragon 888 processor showing poor performance.The game lags when I play the game for few minutes during break time of my work on website juicerhunter.
