Does dark mode actually save battery?
On OLED screens (most modern phones) yes — dark pixels are literally off. On LCD screens the backlight is always on, so it makes no difference.
Follow-up questions
Is dark mode easier on eyes?
Depends. In dim rooms yes; in bright rooms light mode is often more readable.
Does it hurt sleep less than light mode?
A little, but blue light exposure from any screen close to bedtime still matters.
