Hey there, So unless otherwise specified with an ‘outside game mode’ notation, then the input lag was done in game mode. Yes, there will be a difference in latency in and out of game mode as game mode optimizes for low latency at the expense of picture quality (so it could have a slight impact). For example, 4k60Hz (in game mode) is 9.8ms and 4k/60Hz outside of game mode is 76.6ms (so it does have a pretty significant impact on latency in this case). Unfortunately, we didn’t test it for 120Hz though but it’ll definitely be higher than the values in game mode, we just can’t say how much higher.

If you ever find the time that information would influence a purchase (or not). Thank you.
