Is energy star the reason my computer screen takes 5 seconds to wake up when I wiggle the mouse even though my smartphone screen can switch on instantly?

No. I have several monitors of similar age, and their startup times vary significantly. It's a result of manufacturer choices, but not some nefarious impact of labels that tell you how much power a thing uses.

Doubtful, of my four displays only one behaves this way

How many various inputs does the display on your phone need to scan and handshake?
