It is measurable difference, but it's only 0.3% more of battery life compared to dark gray. This is very good article about this: https://www.xda-developers.com/amoled-black-vs-gray-dark-mode/
I’ve read that article several times before (and have written about the topic), but on a global screen usage scale 0.3% is still not 0% so you could argue that if saving power is the goal of using a dark theme on OLED devices, then maximum black would be a most ethical design choice. I will take my 0.3% battery + an aesthetic I like better any day.
