What's "Smooth AF"?

You may have noticed a "Smooth AF" moniker in the Poco X2 teasers. The marketing term probably refers to the 120Hz refresh rate on the smartphone. It is worth noting that 120Hz is available in a handful of phones right now. Poco X2 could be the cheapest phone in the market to offer such a high display refresh rate.
