I apologize if you are already aware of this, but if you go into Settings > Battery, then look at the 24hr graph, you can tap anywhere on the graph where the battery drain is strong to see which apps are eating it up the most. From there you can investigate that app’s settings to see if there are any features you don’t need and can disable. Things like always on location services and background app refresh.
(I’m on a 12mini, which might have the worst battery life of any iPhone in recent years.)
Yes, I know about that. The problem is that, while commuting by train to go to the office, I use the phone a little bit too much (plus, there's a part of the rail line where there isn't any signal and apparently this too drains the battery). I just feel like my old OnePlus Nord or even my Pixel 3a had a better battery life under these conditions, but then again, it's two different systems with different apps. For example: I used Boost for Reddit on my Android, I used Apollo on this iPhone. Probably the latter drained more battery than the other. I just don't remember coming home from work with 25% of battery left.
