I know the OLED displays work very different, each pixel is a separate LED, so there yes, a white would use more battery.
There was considerable discussion on this earlier, maybe in this thread. Maybe not. Anyways I think That you are correct, the white does not consume more battery than the black. I used GTX a lot in the past and battery life was the same as non GTX NRG ROMs.
