Have any of you experience some quick battery drain while doing basic tasks like browsing and listening to music? I experienced this a couple of days after 14.6 update. When I run, I listen to songs for 1 hour - screen-off but I still consume about 10% of battery.

Hello, OliverPopeItsHandled.
Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're experience decreased battery runtime after updating to iOS 14.6.
You mentioned that one scenario where this occurs is while listening to music. Is the music downloaded on your device or streaming?
Keep in mind, low- or high-temperature conditions might cause the device to change its behavior to regulate its temperature:
