Google play services is a club of so many other apps
so for this go to account and backup >account and check how many account is on syncing there which not necessary turn it of
second thing is go to settings >privacy >permission manager>location and check how many app accessing the location if not necessary deny or do as " allow access while in use"

one of the main reasons of battery drain is even you close apps but they uses ur battery and running in background unnecessary, see image and read the statement.
2nd due to huge notification enable.
for e.g ; Google has huge notification which we don't need at all see image just scroll down image and check how many notification it does have.
So do these settings to stop, which consume unnecessarily.

1. Connection>more connections settings> disable nearby device settings

2. Location>improve accuracy >disable
A. Wifi scanning
B. Bluetooth scanning .

Besides above settings do some more settings to save more battery life and observe for next 1-2 days, it will give a noticeable difference

3. Device care>battery >power mode>select "optimised" and "adaptive power saving".

And then click on "app power management >
And enable these 2 options.
A. Adaptive battery
B. Put Unused Apps to Sleep.

4. Long press on each app specially 3rd party(LIKE FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE) and rarely used apps and also ON "GOOGLE APP" as well, then click on>app info> then go to these 3 options below on by one

A. Mobile data> allow background data usage>off

B. Battery >allow background activity >off

C. Notification >disable unnecessary notifications like promotional and unnecessary reminder notifications.

5. Go to settings >apps>search "weather" >click on settings icon right side > change "auto refresh" settings as per your requirements and disable some unnecessary reminder. ( due to auto refresh it continuously consuming battery?)


6. If you use Facebook frequently then disable "auto play video"
And if you are mostly uses mobile, on wifi connection then also disable "auto play videos" in YouTube.

7. Google >click on 3dot>usage and diagnostics >off this option.

😎 ...how you basically installed software? if it's via mobile data or wifi then maximum time this will happend only.... it needed to be flashed by Odin or through authorised Samsung service center or via smart switch and pc which is process and recommended to install software in especially Samsung devices as Samsung provides non A/B partition type ota software not like other company hence if someone simply update software then possible software loop hole formation can create anything mysterious with device...even display and motherboard can destroy forever as many users faced before
