Before OLED (and similar), most displays were lit with LEDs (behind or around the screen, through a diffuser, then through liquid crystals) which was indeed the dominant power draw... like 90% or so!
But the article is about an OLED display, so the pixels themselves are emitting light.

The article is about an LCD display, actually.
I just wish "we" wouldn't have discarded the option to use pure black for dark modes in favor of a seemingly ever-brightening blue-grey...
