Note 8 screen saver question

[Stealthieone]

So I finally got my wireless charger... I found that i can have a screen saver on while uts charging. I selected beautiful widgets.. Since it shows the time and weather while charging. My question is should I be concerned with screen burn in?

The content moves around (it's designed to, just like AOD), so that shouldn't be a problem. The amount of energy your charger will consume VS just charging without the screensaver, however, will increase dramatically (overall it might not be that much because the phone already uses very little compared to most things around the house, but it will be a lot compared with the phone itself).

I hate answers like this. It seems like you have no clue what you are talking about and you have no idea how much it will use.

Well, no, I don't know how much it will use, but I do have a good idea of what I'm talking about. I haven't measured how much power charging my phone with the screen off consumes VS charging it with the screen constantly on, with varying levels of brightness and content on the screen. If you do, please do enlighten us. What is clear, though, is that just like leaving a TV on all the time vs leaving it plugged in without turning it on, there is going to be more energy being consumed with the screen on.
