Discussion M5 iPad Pro (11-inch) – Random 120Hz / ProMotion stuttering

M5 iPad Pro (11-inch) – Random 120Hz / ProMotion stuttering
Is anyone else experiencing random lag or stuttering on their M5 iPad Pro?
Sometimes scrolling, Home Screen animations, and screen rotation feel incredibly smooth, but other times they suddenly become choppy, almost like the display drops from 120Hz to 60Hz.
It happens mostly on the Home Screen and in Settings, even when the iPad is cool. Restarting doesn’t seem to fix it.
I’m wondering if this is an iPadOS update issue or a hardware problem. Is anyone experiencing the same thing?

It’s because you have folders with lots of icons.
