Abstract
An electronic device may be provided with a display. The display may be a variable frame rate display capable of adaptively adjusting a frame rate at which display frames are displayed in response to information associated with the current state of operation of the device. The information may be gathered using control circuitry in the electronic device. The control circuitry may gather the information for adjusting the frame rate by monitoring the electronic device power supply configuration, other device components, the type of content to be displayed, and user-input signals. The control circuitry may adjust the frame rate based on the gathered information by increasing or decreasing the frame rate. The control circuitry may be formed as a portion of display control circuitry for the device such as a display driver integrated circuit or may be formed as a portion of storage and processing circuitry external to the display.
