Same problem, but what to do? I guess the only option is to wait till Feb or March for one UI 7 update, which will also have bugs and will have poor battery backup I guess. Then again we have to wait for One UI 7.1 update. Before that we will get used to this screen on time.

I updated the software to January batch, and the battery is draining almost 20% faster

Within one hour from fully charging the phone, more than 13% dropped with minimal usage!

A quick fix needs to be dispatched to solve this problem

How is the battery performance of s23 series on one ui 6? Is it better than one ui 5 on which the phone launched?
