Any mentions of the refresh rate? I've been waiting for a 4K/5K display that supports 120 Hz to pair nicely with my 2021 MBP, but it looks like the only available options so far are funky gaming displays: https://tonsky.me/blog/monitors-mac/

It's almost surely 60hz since they didn't brand it as "ProMotion" display like they did with iPhone, Macbook Pro, and iPad Pro
60hz, there isn't enough port bandwidth in TB4 to handle 5K @ 120hz. Anything coming close to being capable enough is years away still.
No, there is with DSC. 144Hz with HDR, or 180Hz with SDR. Or even 240Hz with two HBR2 streams.
Looks like 60hz. I don't think anybody has 5k/120hz working yet.
Yup, i feel like nobody cares about monitor tech, i waited for 4k/120hz IPS for a long time
It's not that nobody cares, it's just that this stuff is genuinely hard. We're too spoiled.
If you sit far enough away from it, you could try a 48 inch LG CX OLED tv. 120 Hz, OLED, 4K
