I would only be using it to watch television, movies and possibly 4k porn. Nothing gaming related.

Yes, 120 hz TVs can cause a kind of soap opera effect, although this can be turned off.

While it is true that most movies and TV shows are filmed at 24 fps, 120 hz TVs create "filler" frames to fill in the gaps between the actual frames, which cause the media to look smoother than usual.

If your set is a 120Hz or 240Hz one, it adds faux frames to source content if motion-smoothing settings are turned on. The higher refresh rate means the panel can show many more new images per secondeven if those images arent in the original contentin order to make everything look more smooth. These additional frames are completely made-up: Theres enough processing power in a modern TV to analyze successive frames, create fake interpolated frames that split the difference between them, and display them between real frames.
