Updates to what is displayed on the screen happen in a \u201cwave\u201d from one side of the screen to the other. Think of each refresh cycle as a fast scan of the screen, many of which are updating at 60Hz (or 60 times per second).<\/p>\n<p>When the direction that the screen refreshes from happens to be on the left or right edge of the screen you\u2019re currently looking at, jelly scrolling can be observed. If the controller responsible for refreshing the display is mounted at the top or bottom of the screen, you may still notice some lag but it won\u2019t result in a \u201cjelly-like\u201d experience.<\/p>\n<p>The term is also known as scan-out skewing and isn\u2019t only found in LCD screens. The chunky CRTs of old and even the latest OLEDs both refresh in a similar manner, and so also may be prone to jelly scrolling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>What Is OLED?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Some_Devices_Are_More_Prone_Than_Others\"><\/span>Some Devices Are More Prone Than Others<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The way a display is implemented into a device can help mask the effect of jelly scrolling almost entirely. The display you\u2019re currently using to read this article probably exhibits jelly scrolling when used in a particular orientation.<\/p>\n<p>By placing the display controller along the top of the screen so that it refreshes from top-to-bottom, jelly scrolling is eliminated. Take, for example, a laptop display. It\u2019s near-impossible to use a laptop display in a portrait orientation, but if you did you would probably notice jelly scrolling here too.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-757854\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ipad_mini_face_on.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"iPad mini 2021\" width=\"650\" height=\"508\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Apple<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Another contributing factor is the speed at which the display refreshes. It\u2019s a lot harder to see jelly scrolling on a screen that refreshes at 120Hz compared to a screen that refreshes at 60Hz.<\/p>\n<p>Case in point: the sixth-generation iPad mini, which exhibits jelly scrolling when used in its portrait orientation since the display controller is mounted along the panel\u2019s horizontal axis. The iPad Pro 11-inch has its display controller mounted in the same position but because the ProMotion display refreshes at 120Hz, jelly scrolling is a lot harder to spot (but it\u2019s there).<\/p>\n<p>You can test your devices using the jelly scrolling effect test at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.testufo.com\/scanskew\">Blur Busters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Higher_Refresh_Rates_Help\"><\/span>Higher Refresh Rates Help<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One easy solution to the problem of jelly scrolling is to use higher refresh rate displays so that the effect is a lot harder to see. This will mostly improve tablets and smartphones, which are often used in both portrait and landscape orientations.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let jelly scrolling put you off buying an iPad.
