iOS 14.4 on iPhone X Severe Battery Drain

Has anyone else experienced severe battery drain after updating the iOS to 14.4?


My iPhone X has never lost battery power like this before. Drained 5% in just a couple of minutes.

iPhone X, iOS 14

I upgraded my IPhoneX a few days ago to iOS 14.4. Now the battery drains nearly in front of my eyes. I’ve shut off listen for Siri, Bluetooth and checked the battery for unusual battery consumption and found nothing unusual. When I charge it, I put the phone in airplane mode to speed up the charging. I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s very frustrating to say the least.
