Is it true that the Eco mode really saves fuel?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Onboard computer

A question that everyone with a modern car with an Eco-mode button has asked themselves is: does Eco mode really save fuel? The main feature of Eco mode is to change gears a bit earlier, keeping the engine revolutions low, and making the accelerator pedal less responsive. However, experts claim that driving habits are much more important; staying within speed limits, not pressing too hard on the accelerator pedal, avoiding sudden accelerations, and keeping the car always efficient with good maintenance certainly works better than the "magic button" of Eco mode.
