Refresh rate is half of what the motion rate is, so 120 motion rate = 60 refresh rate.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This and most tvs cheat to get the claimed 120hz refresh. They essentially use processing to draw in frames between frames to articially double the refresh. So no, you can't get above a true 60hz refresh on this TV. Your best bet is to get a 120hz monitor if it matters enough to you.

The 120 motion rate comes from, as far as I'm concerned, the extra BLACK frame -inserted- between two consecutive frames, to help with motion artifacts (with every native frame, there's an extra BLACK frame inserted AFTER it, DOUBLING the total amount of "frames" to 120 -- 60 native frames/60 black frames). It's to make it "appear" smoother with less blur. Trust me, I've been thinking about this tv for a while. You should keep it. 120Hz TVs (native frames) are crazy expensive anyways, around a $1,000 or more, and are considered next-gen. This is in fact the only 4K 32-inch TV that is out there and exists. God bless you, and good luck on your TV journey.
