That's right, but:
The built-in lighting means that more light is reflected from bright areas than from darker or even black areas (the light color also plays a role in this).
And this fact increases the contrast - light areas become lighter, dark areas remain dark.
In addition, with a dark frame, light areas appear even lighter than with a light frame, which in turn makes dark areas look darker.
And since all device manufacturers buy both the screen modules and the control units from one manufacturer - they are identical - the only thing left is how much contrast the layers above remove - and each one reduces the contrast by a certain value, while light increases it again .
And these are physical facts - not shown pictures that are falsified by the recordings anyway.
