The answer to that is yes, dark gray still saves battery, but this is the part where most people say “but pure black saves more power because the pixels are actually turned off!” I’m going to sort of contradict my own title here, but yes, both statements in that outcry are true.

So don’t use that title, since you admit it’s false? But I guess “Black saves only a tiny bit more power than dark grey” wouldn’t get the clicks, though true, because it’s not as surprising as the falsehood.
