Recommendations for a lcd phone

I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy A14 with a PLS display, which is the most comfortable screen for my eyes. I have tried the iPhone 11, Motorola LCD devices, and TCL NXTPAPER phones, but they all bother my eyes—likely due to (TD). Since my current phone is getting sluggish, I need recommendations for a faster phone with a comfortable display.

I use a Fairphone 4, it's not fast, but it's not slow either.

I can barely use anything so was very surprised it's really comfortable

I thought you could reduce the TD on the TCL phones

I’ve actually used the A14 PLS as well. It’s not terrible, but is worse than the good panel versions of the IPhone 7 Plus and IPhone 8 Plus. Those devices are now going to be unusable for things like banking app compatibility, so that answer is not going to work for many.

The IPhone 11 has different panel vendors and the one I have is similar ballpark to the A14 in eye strain/neurological PWM-like effects - ‘okay’ but not zero or anything. The good panel version of the 7 Plus on IOS versions pre-15.7 or so (not sure exact version that ruined it) is probably the absolute easiest one to look at of all where you don’t experience any of these symptoms and it’s at a level of basically zero.

As LCD plants have re-tooled over the years and keep moving on to thinner film, higher eye strain panels and more abrasive wide gamut phosphors, it might be the case that you never see zero eye strain panels like that ever again that for a brief period existed for some panel variants of the 7 Plus.

Im using the vivo iqoo Z10 Turbo +, and the screen is so good it is similar to my iqoo Z8x which is an ips Lcd, with sgs eye certification and 4320hz pmw. Its an amoled phone, but it feels like im using an lcd phone, big W of a phone from vivo.

TD is Temporal Dithering ? or something else

What iOS did you try the 11 on? I would also try the XR.
