Does AMOLED screen really save battery?

Amoled screen phone

If you happen to rock a phone with an AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) display, I bet, you'll find this news really interesting. AMOLED displays, unlike other display technologies (IPS/LCD/LED) has an advantage when it comes to giving you some extra juice out of the battery.

If you choose a black theme, wallpaper, screen saver etc, you'll end up getting some extra battery backup. This happens because on AMOLED screens, when a pixel has to be turned black, instead of turning the color of the pixel black, the LED present at that particular pixel gets turned off.
On the other hand, on LCD and other displays, the pixels ain't turned off. Only the colors of the pixels get black when required. This shutting down of pixels help you get some extra on-screen time.

  When a message gets delivered to the receiver, you see a double tick. And when they read the message, the double tick becomes blue. However, if the receiver has disabled/turned off 'Read Receipt' option on their WhatsApp settings, you can only see a double tick after sending a message whether they've read it or not. Thus, making it impossible to guess whether they've seen the message or not. Let's make it possible. Today, I'll show you a small trick with the help of which, you'll be able to know whether or not they have read your message. It works 95% of the times. Steps: First of all, type and send your desired message. Here, I'm using a Windows Phone to illustrate it, it works the same way on Android and iOS devices. Record a 3-4 seconds audio and send it after sending the messages. Next, when they see your messages, there's a high chance that they'll play your recorded audio. As soon as your recording is played, the audio mess...
