Turned off location on location is ok bixby routine whilst a app is open once app is closed then location off.
I also haven't got high brightness on.
Power saving mode on.
I don't sync all my Google drive accounts just sync one day to day usage.
I also don't have apps running in background pitting apps to deep sleep and other apps o use dsilu I put to sleep.
I make sure that my phone isn't on sound mode always on mute.
So I feel I have done tweeks to ensure good battery usage but still having to charge twice a day

@sarasphotobox Even if a heavy user that seems a bit excessive to me when making modifications to maximise battery. You can firstly wipe the cache partition to see if that makes a difference or otherwise a factory reset.

That's why I normally go for the higher ends with bigger battery.
I like to play COD which for me is the biggest battery drainer.
For battery saving after trying most stuff I feel if yiu let the phone do its thing it lasts better than doing tweaks.
My S21 ultra has literally everything on Auto except brightness which I keep at 50%
And most Apps location used only when app is open.
I normally have 70% battery left when I reach home after work and then use the rest playing COD, youtube etc and still have 30% -20% till bedtime.
I usually charge overnight.

It is a less powerful battery on the S21 at 4000 mAh , whilst the Plus and Ultra similar at 4800 and 5000 respectively. However other features would be the bigger selling point for the Ultra. No Battery enhancement for the base mobile compared to previous model ,though bit of an improvement in the Plus.

But I feel s21 is powerful don't get me wrong. I do appreciate your opinion and feedback is good . But considering the humongous s21 ultra I couldn't see myself getting that device so s21 was a decent choice

Except for brightness keep it manual at comfortable brightness (mine is 50%)
And check your permissions for location and battery usage in background especially on mobile data.
Today's SOT but I was home on WiFi and didn't play COD a lot normally is over 1 hrs still 18% left so would say around 9 hours if continued till end.
Also would recommend a wipe cache and apps optimisation.
