compared to what? an emulator's output?
ya'll are wild for acting like CRT's are some miraculous displays. Way too many apples to oranges comparisons ITT

Depends on the size of the screen tbh. Retro games look fantastic on my Miyoo Mini +.
Would a simple blur filter be enough to emulate this?
Most emulators have extensive CRT emulation filtering, I wouldn't be surprised if both the above images were created by an emulator.

The best part is if you squint your eyes, the right image looks like the left image if you weren’t squinting, and the left image looks even better while doing it.
I have a 19" CRT monitor and a larger CRT TV for retro purposes, but I'm not too fond of using filters on modern displays, most filters look 'fake' to me.
