Display colors change with refresh rate

The screen colors/contrast are slightly different at different refresh rates. With auto, it flickers.
In 90Hz color reproduction is bad, it gets a blueish hue.
Model Name: zf9
Firmware Version: 32.2040.2040.23
Rooted or not: nope
Frequency of Occurrence: permanent
========================================
Workaround: fix refresh rate.
Steps to replicate:
Dark mode
Switch display mode/colour profile to "neutral"
Place refresh rate toggle as first quick setting in notification shade
Decrease brightness to minimum
Pull down notification shade
Switch between refresh rates using the toggle and observe the gray background of the notification shade changing hue/color.

Another, slightly more way:
Enable auto refresh rate
Take many high dynamic range photos with whichever app
Brightness to minimum
Open Google photos
Start scrolling, and observe color changes between scrolling and not scrolling

Hi, I'm still having this issue, I just had mine repaired for broken Wi-Fi (issue with main board) and noticed this contrast flicker issue to be worse since getting it fixed. Any suggestions?
Thanks
