No. The native/"true" refresh rate is 60Hz, though like basically all other brands of HDTV it has a so-called "enhanced" refresh rate that Sony calls "MotionFlow XR 120". Google it for details, but the general consensus is that electronically enhanced refresh rates are more a gimmick than anything else and in any event, are certainly not the equivalent of a higher native refresh rate.

the specifications say 120hz refresh rate.. not "Motion Capture Rate 120" as some do to mislead. so why are several saying only 60hz?!
