I see. I didn't know that.

I wonder, how much more/less energy a 5.5" 4K display/device @1080/360p, consumes compared to a native 5.5" 1080/360p display/device.

If there is no noticeable difference, then the screen size is the factor that kills battery life. Resolution is "irrelevant" then.
Maybe, the GPU's simply can't clock slower and consume less energy, even if you go further down with the resolution.
