Apple Vision Pro headset, scheduled for release next year, has displays that support up to a 100Hz refresh rate, according to code found in the latest beta of visionOS.
According to Apple, the Vision Pro headset refreshes at a 90Hz refresh rate most of the time. However, in an online WWDC session, the Cupertino firm revealed that it is also able to switch to 96Hz to support video content filmed at 24 frames per second.
Now, visionOS beta code found by M1 Astra confirms that the actual maximum Vision Pro refresh rate is 100Hz, but 100Hz is a mode that only activates to “compensate for detected 50Hz flicker from artificial lighting.”
Apple Vision Pro refresh rate revealed according to visionOS beta 4. There seems to be refresh rate modes, 100Hz, 96Hz, and 90Hz. "Adjusted to 100Hz to compensate for detected 50Hz flicker from artifical lighting." "Travel mode requires 90Hz at all times."

The headset will be able to switch between the 90Hz, 96Hz, and 100Hz modes, but for the most part, it will work at 90Hz. In “Travel Mode,” 90Hz is the maximum.
The headset uses twin 4K micro-OLED displays, with a total of 23 million pixels, which is more pixels than a 4K TV for each eye.
