Look into if you have some kind of problem if you cannot even talk about something such as eink displays without calling other people names. What's up with that?
The special chips enable the eink display to have a better refresh rate, but it is still the eink displaying with the faster refresh rate.
Current cutting edge is at 14fps meaning 24fps is not impossible.
People almost never use the whole screen at once. Not when typing, not when moving a cursor. And not even when watching video, because modern compression formats update the parts that are moving.
And the laws of physics do not stop anything from moving more than 14 times per second, as you might know from your car engine or smoothie blender.
> the laws of physics do not stop anything from moving more than 14 times per second,
Sorry, but this is like saying the laws of physics do not stop you from moving from Mars to Earth 14 times per second. In fact, they do. The same is true of moving ink particles within a high density high viscosity physical medium and getting them to stay at a specific location once you're done moving them.
Also "almost never use the whole screen at once" makes no difference since the rate of movement of ink is the same even if you were only trying to change 1 pixel.
>Secondly, if they can do 14RPM with current eink displays
They can't. Anyone claiming otherwise is misrepresenting tricks as actual refresh rate. You can convincingly fake higher refreshes by e.g. refreshing pixels independently, but any given pixel can't be refreshed at 14RPM, not even close.
