I thought refresh rate doesn't matter so much with LCD displays when you're reading a mostly static image (A book as an example), but maybe PWM or dithering is a factor as well in terms of eyestrain where higher refresh rates can benifit (of course the concept of refresh rate with PWM is a bit of a misnomer)

the reviewer seemed to indicate they could tell the ui was much smoother and snappier because of the refresh rate. not sure how noticeable it is
When you scroll text for example I think it makes differences
It’ll also reduce worst-case latency on vblank waits by 8ms, making the screen more responsive.
