Light theme or dark theme

Which dark or light theme is more battery friendly for my Lumia 1520? I think I saw somewhere for LCD screen white color is more battery friendly. Is that right?

Shouldn't really matter, battery is fine. Personally my 1020 is using light currently. I swap between both depending on my mood.

For a LCD screen it does not matter because black or white need the same amount of battery.
For an AMOLED there is a difference white needs battery and black not.

So for your 1520 the theme does not matter. But if you want to save battery don't use a high brightness setting.

Thank you very much.I knew on LCD it doesn't make a difference but someone said the white color doesn't consume much power and I was curious.
