Re incell panels. I tried many on a 13 mini. Whilst the pwm was gone, the screens drain battery, phone overheats, poor colour reproduction and there is risk of poor touch functionality with ghost touches. Not worth it.
On iOS 17 on the SE3/11, try enabling zoom mode with zoom invert and then enable classic invert. The screen display/colours are much more comfortable at the expense of the wider colour gamut.
My 15 pro arrived yesterday. Desaturated the colours - no luck. Eyes felt like they were burning. Sorry Apple it’s going back. I will stick with the SE2022. Maybe I will try a 13 mini again with the return policy.
I tried reducing the colour saturation using the greyscale option and it seems to help. unfortunately I need give the 13 mini back so I can't use it for much longer. I've never had a problem with the SE 2020 or SE 2022 phones though I still prefer the screen of the original SE. will see if I can get another mini
iOS17 now has an option to desaturate colours. Enable grayscale mode and the new intensity slider appears. Slide back towards the left to get a more desaturated colour look. This might help some
Am wondering if some of the issues are iOS version related. Has anyone tried iOS 15 ?

This is the SE2020 compared with the SE 2016. True Tone is turned off, brightness levels are at the same level. The SE 2016 screen looks clearer to me.
Not been able to get the photo side by side as I wasn’t able to find my tripod.
I have found a way to that may reduce dithering however you will end up with quite saturated colours though.
in Accessibility settings turn on the Blue/Yellow filter and increase the intensity to around 70-75%.
You can check how much dithering has been be reduced by jumping to the following site
I am not able to see the logo in the red box on my original SE. On the new SE it is clearly visible. However my enabling the colour filter on the new SE the logo disappears. Not sure if this reduces dithering but maybe be worth a try even on the OLED iPhones.
After resetting the settings I turned off True Tone, auto brightness and turned on reduce motion. These are the normal settings I have prior to the reset.
Interestingly I have a WireGuard vpn on the phone which connects to my home network. Struggled with trying to figure out why my latency to a device at home was ~200ms. After the reset all settings it dropped to 24ms which is about right over a 4G connection.
I can only assume that resetting settings clears out old bum settings. Maybe it has helped with the screen. Will try and get some side by side screen shots of the iPhone SE and SE2020 for comparison later.
I am in the same boat. I had the XS and that gave me a headache. Went onto the XR but there was something odd about the screen which I couldn’t quite put my finger on. Switch the 11 pro. It was better but still had the odd headache. Switched the SE 2020. Good screen but nowhere near as the comfortable as the 2016 SE which is my spare phone.
Contemplating switching the 2016 SE.
Was planning to get an iPhone 8 as I found a good deal. But before I pulled the trigger I decided to do a reset all settings on the SE2. It has somehow made a difference. Will see how it goes.
This maybe a temporal dithering issue.

Try changing the colour profile
