Black Digital Wallpaper 4K
Digitally made rather than photographed — 3D renders, digital painting and CGI on black, at 4K. Community-uploaded; sign in to post yours.
Digital art has an advantage over photography here: it is generated at whatever resolution the artist chose, so a genuine 4K render has real detail at 4K rather than an upscaled photograph pretending to. Everything in this gallery is 3840x2160 or larger. Renders lean heavily on smooth lighting falloff, which is the first thing to band in a re-saved file — so source quality matters more than the subject suggests. Right-click to save; free for personal use.
Common questions
Do black wallpapers actually save battery?
On OLED and AMOLED screens, yes. A true-black (#000000) pixel is switched off rather than dimmed, so it draws no power — and with an always-on display that runs all day the difference is measurable. On an LCD screen it saves nothing, because the backlight stays on either way. Not sure which you have? Our OLED test tool fills the screen with pure black: on an OLED it goes completely dark, on an LCD you can still see the backlight glowing grey.
How do I set one as my wallpaper?
Long-press on mobile or right-click on desktop to save the image, then set it from your gallery or system wallpaper settings.
