Just got a new phone (OnePlus Nord 3), turned refresh rate HUD in developer settings and I see some parts of the system and some apps display 120 Hz but I have problem noticing any difference, same with my wife's Redmi Note 12

What kind of apps? I don't think you'd really see much change with simple 2D interfaces. But video or things rendered in 3D real time will most definitely be noticable.

On a 2D interface, the most noticable thing would be scrolling. Scrolling is much smoother with a higher refresh rate. Just scroll through these comments switching between 60 and 120. Guarantee you'd notice.

I doubt you would see much in video, as most sources are less than 60 fps.

That is true. Sports are sometimes digitslly broadcast at higher frame rates, though. I've seen some Sharks games at 90+ and now it just looks awful when I see hockey at 60 or less on TV.
