Enabled all possible battery life saving methods, still my Samsung S21 still drain my battery: FAST.
I got my new phone (model SM-G991B) on Monday, April 12 2021 > and have not yet used my full workflow on it. Screentime is aprox 3 hours. Still I must charge my battery 2 times a day. This is a big No Go.
With this drainage, I can't rely on this phone for a full workday outside without any charging outlets available.
I hope Samsung will fix this with a software upgrade.

after the latest update I felt my phone drained faster than usual I only get 5 hours screen on time but after a few weeks this has been the battery performance I've been getting.

From my previous setup I changed this and I've place the facebook app to sleep.
And here's what I'm getting now which is much better.

this is fine with me now though, managed to get to 2 days. On wqhd and adaptive refresh rate, Bixby routine to. Set refresh rate to standard on messaging apps. Spen off as I don't have one.

Does it also improve the heat issue?

Have had the phone for little more than a month
after couple of weeks decided to factory reset (had downloaded apps via the switch-app) but still poor batter life.
The phone is great, display performance and camera top notch but the battery drains way too fast for a 1400€ phone (I have the exynos 512/16).
Mostly on wifi, 5g off, FHD+ 120hz.
Today's SOC
yesterday reached 5 hrs soc and had 15% battery left
I really hope samsung fixes this, it's getting annoying.

After using the phone for 4-5 days, my S21 ultra heat issue is better now. Not the coolest but it doesn't heat up like the first day

2 days ! I assume it is not SOT since that is not possible. Show me the graph of the charging. I think you mean that the standby time is 2 days which is not that great at all.
