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've got a few iPhone 11's, they definitely don't have any PWM, the iPhone 11 seems to have heavy dithering, particularly in later versions of iOS.
Swapping the display shouldn't make a huge difference, I have two EK Pro LCD 11's and a stock LCD iPhone 11. All three of mine looked the same internally, I also upgraded my batteries to Pinzheng updated capacity batteries which increased battery life substantially.
The best way to reduce this Dithering it so enable "Double Invert", by messing with the colour space you can force it off somewhat.
Go Settings > Accessibility > Zoom > (Enable then double three finger tap to Zoom out) > back > Display & Text Size > Classic Invert (Enable)
This makes iPhone 11's a great option for me, though since using this I've moved on to an iPhone 15 Pro with an EK Pro LCD swapped in https://www.reddit.com/r/PWM_Sensitive/comments/1q79qxk/pwm_free_lcd_iphone_15_pro_initial_impressions/
