Overdrive for electronic device displays

An electronic device, comprising:

• a display configured to display content;
• and
• one or more processors configured to:
• identify a high contrast transition from a first gray level of a first frame of the content to a second gray level of a second frame of the content;
• determine an overdrive over-compensation mitigation gray level based upon the high contrast transition;
• identify a transition from the second frame of the content to a third frame of the content having a third gray level;
• determine whether the first frame and second frame are respectively associated with a first frame rate and a second frame rate that are greater than or equal to a threshold rendering frame rate;
• after determining whether the first frame and second frame are respectively associated with the first frame rate and the second frame rate, determine an overdrive gray level based upon the overdrive over-compensation mitigation gray level and the third gray level;
• and
• cause the third frame of the content to be displayed at the overdrive gray level.
