We know that our old Note have an AMOLED display, this means that the black pixels are almost turned off, so you can experience a good and sharp image instead of blueish, LCD TFT displays. It's a bit buggy because of dead pixels from manufacturer, clipping issue in videos and screen burn-in (not in every phone, just in some). Another complication of this screen is that if you put brightness at lowest, it's still very bright so if you want to read something in your bed, or use the phone without iluminating the whole room, there's an app that you will like:
Galactic Night
This app have much great features: you can use the phone at any combination of colors you want: Black and Red, Black and Blue, Black and Green, No blue (to prevent insomnium), B&W etc.
So what the hell have this to do with the battery? Well, it's easy, think this:
You're running low battery, and need extra minutes to finish your task. Use Black and Red setting
You are in a travel, without any charger, and want your phone turned on all the day. Use Black and Red setting
If you use this setting, your battery will be incremented to a 25% to 40% in duration. Also as it uses only red pattern of pixels and black, your phone will have less and it will be perfect to read at night (even it will be more healthy as it doesnt uses blue leds which causes insomnium).
The app is free to use and requires ROOT. Works only on Samsung phones with amoled screens.
******USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK****** Using these options for a long time (DAYS without turning off the screen for even a single second) will result a permanent lost of the used color.
