This seems to have solved my problems:

Numerous users have voiced their concern that the Calendar app is hogging an astronomical amount of battery from their devices. Users have reported that if they check the Battery stats for the past 24 hours, then the Calendar app is sitting right there at the top, running for over 15 hours in the background and around 83 hours in the last 7 days.
Correspondingly, it seems to hog around 40% of the battery which is definitely not what one would expect from an app belonging to this domain. What makes the matter worse is the fact that Calendar isn’t even present under background app refresh, so you cannot disable its background activity as well. With that said, there does exist a nifty workaround that shall help you resolve this bug. So without further ado, let’s check it out.
Nearly all the users who were getting bugged with this issue had one thing in common- they were all using the Apple Watch. Upon further debugging the issue, it turned out the issue is the watchOS. So here’s what you need to do to rectify this bug once and for all.
That’s it. These were the steps to fix the Calendar app excessive battery drain issue on your iPhone. If you have any queries concerning the aforementioned steps, do let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a solution at the earliest.
With my Iphone 14 Pro Max, German version, the battery lasted two days until 16.0.3. Then I updated to 16.1. At first everything was fine until I did the sync with iCloud. Since then I have power consumption over night of 70% without using it. I had iCloud off, GPS off, Siri off.
Find my Iphone often has 100% battery consumption, Siri also has too much.
I really have no idea anymore.
Apple please do something with it.

I had the same problems with 16.2 B on 14 Pro Max.
My problem is not the contacts.
Can not find the error.
Every little use eats power like crazy. Started where I synced the photos with iCloud.
Have already turned off almost everything and always the same.
It got a little better when I turned off Family cloud.
It might be interesting turning each back on and monitoring - then you might get a definitive answer as to what was drawing yours down...
It is worse for me on my 14 Pro
The phone gets heated and battery drains too fast (faster than usual). Never exeprienced this on the previous iOS.
I’m personally getting sick of Apple for being this bad with bugs. I never experienced these amount of bugs on any other phone before.
I bought my 14 Pro for 1450€
I've had the same issue of my iPhone 12 battery draining overnight by 10-20% for the past few weeks. First, I thought it was because I wasn't on 16.1, but since updating to 16.1 it has been the worst drainage, with nothing showing up in the hourly battery settings overnight.
Yesterday I had an appointment with Apple's Genius Bar and they said the only thing left to do was a factory reset, which I dreadfully proceeded with, and still last night my battery drained 15% overnight with nothing running! I'm beyond frustrated at this point because not only did I spend all that time doing the factory reset, I also have to add all my apps manually back and reconfigure all my settings because they didn't want to restore my phone from a backup.
Apple for too long has been pushing software updates out way too fast, that lead to awful bugs. This is what happens when you push for profits over everything.
The battery drain caused by Siri just happened to me again yesterday. This time, completely turning off Siri (and rebooting) did not help. How is this possible?!?! Even after turning off Siri, Siri still consumes 65% of my battery?
So here I am trying to prolong the life of my battery on my new iPhone by running it in Low Power Mode, but Apple's bug(s) will destroy my battery in a couple of months... Great!!!
Same issue. Battery life started to worsen with 16 then I did 16.1 and it’s horrendous. Drained to less than 20% from a full charge 12 hours ago. Phone say unused for most of the day with minimal background processed running. Nothing else changed except iOS 15.x to the new 16.x updates. Help me apple!!!!
Same problem here with iPhone 14 plus, doesn’t last a day, gets pretty warm with simple tasks and hates playing music will chew through battery with music playing through phone speakers while in standby mode.
New iPhone 12 mini with a fresh battery and drains 20% battery with minimal activity in 3 hours running iOS 16.1. Restarted the phone several times, turned of indexing, Live Activities and no widgets. This is ridiculous!
I have similar battery drain issues. Also with the latest iOS 16.1.1 update. My iPhone 14 Pro doesn't last one day without recharging it twice a day. This is frustrating, especially with a new device and no beta software.
If I check battery usage in the settings. Home & Lock Screen is always on the first place. Which is really strange. Hoping for a fix soon.
Updated to iOS 16.1.1 and this did not solve the problem. The phone will still suddenly start consuming battery like crazy. Toggling off the WiFi or putting the phone in low power mode has no effect. Makes me think that there is some form of runaway process problem here…
Thank you for your feedback.
I think a step by step analysis e.g. as described by me using Xcode process view and step by step deactivation of app functions will help here.
Of course, it could also be another app that is using the processor heavily for a longer period of time.
Many greetings

Same here, since IOS 16.1 I charge my iPhone 13 2-3 times per day. 60% gone per night. iOS 16.1.1 didn’t fix it. Since then battery health falls from 94 to 91 for less than 3 weeks.
I have data consuming by Apple ID services, 2.7G for 7 days. And don’t know how to disable it🤷
xs max updated it last night to 16.1.1 and the battery is just crazy now! Doesn’t charge correctly, drains super fast . The phone became superb after updating it to the iOS before this one about 2 weeks ago but now with this 16.1.1 it’s frustrating me. Apple put this ś?!&@*t right please!
I also have the same problem on my iPhoneSE3 and iPhone 12mini, and it even became more severe after I updated to ios 16.1.1. I don't find any way to fix it. But my two iPad (iPad 2017 and iPad pro 2020) don't have this issue after updated to iPadOS 16.1.1. So I think this issue may be related to the home screen and lock screen?? Because iPad doesn't have the newly designed lock screen.
It let me feel so bad... I Hope Apple quickly do something to solve this problem!
