Am I crazy or are the "photos" generated? I did have T1800 and it never looked like this. It had a very early very bad grayscale LCD wiht fiddly contrast control, not a perfect crisp vibrant OLED like this page shows.
All the photos are real, though it took me *lots* of time to get them somewhat right. The display on T1800 is indeed "challenging". What helped was:
- Letting it warm for a while
- Putting windows in the right places, because each one generates its own artifacts
- Setting background to dark with the white pattern
- Fiddling with the contrast knob and matching it with the right viewing angle
- Using 2x zoom
To be fair, the default photo app of iPhone 16 automatically reduced some of the artifacts. The only post-processing done myself in GIMP was very basic stuff like adjusting white balance, exposure and contrast.

Here you can see a few very quick-n-dirty photos I just took for comparison - https://imgur.com/a/6Xz6vc8
