Moto G100s 120Hz LCD Display: Is It Good for Everyday Use?
Quick answer, updated 31 October 2026: The Moto G100s uses a 6.72-inch Full HD+ LCD display with up to 120Hz refresh rate. It is worth understanding the real trade-offs between a high-refresh LCD and an OLED rather than assuming all 120Hz screens look identical. The Infinite Tech Moto G100s 8/256 product listing currently shows KSh 30,995.

How 120Hz affects scrolling
Refresh rate is how often the screen can update per second. Up to 120Hz can make compatible interface animations and scrolling appear smoother, though apps and adaptive power settings may operate at other refresh rates. It does not guarantee that every video is 120fps.
FHD+ sharpness versus size
Lenovo documents a 2400×1080 class FHD+ resolution and a 6.72-inch screen for the 8/256 version. This combination can serve reading, navigation and everyday video without claiming premium OLED contrast. Buyers should assess text legibility and the actual panel rather than megapixel-style marketing figures.
LCD is not AMOLED
LCD uses a different illumination method from OLED. It should not be described as AMOLED or pOLED. If very dark video scenes and contrast are major priorities, compare a verified OLED device such as the Moto G86 Power while checking its regional configuration.
Outdoor use in Kenya
For daytime Nairobi use, check brightness in person, auto-brightness response, reflections and visibility while wearing sunglasses. A quoted refresh rate cannot establish sunlight performance by itself. A quality screen protector should not obscure the proximity sensor or fingerprint functionality.
Battery and refresh settings
Higher refresh rates can sometimes demand additional energy depending on the content. The G100s has a large 7,000mAh battery, but its real endurance still depends on brightness, modem load and app usage. Use adaptive display settings when available and follow the exact phone firmware menus.
