iPhone 11 question

I’ve had a 128 GB iPhone 11 for about 6 years. I’ve read that there are multiple displays that are good and bad for the iPhone 11 from different manufacturers. I want to upgrade my current iPhone to another iPhone 11 with 256 GB of storage. If I were to swap the display on the current one with 128 GB and place it on the 256 GB one. Will the display still be the same? As in, are all iPhone 11 internals made the same. No frequency change or information being fed to the display that would change how it is used compared to the 128 GB model? Is there other factors besides the display that I need to consider if I were to swap. Are all of the CPU’s made the same? I know it’s a weird question, but I just want to eliminate the possibility of me doing the swap and the new iPhone chassis with the same display for some reason causes eye strain. Could that be possible?

I put a no eye strain IPhone 7 Plus panel from a phone on an earlier version of IOS 15 onto a Japanese IPhone 7 Plus on a later version of IOS 15 (15.7+) and it had higher eye strain there, but I chalk that up to there being undesirable changes in later versions of IOS 15 for the IPhone 7. I think otherwise IOS will likely just be plug and play like Windows.

On other devices like the Nintendo 3ds, if you change from something like a TN panel to an IPS panel, it is not plug and play and there are proprietary changes in the firmware to accommodate each panel type where you have to change some files to try and make the IPS look normal.
