That is not altogether unusual. Your phone is re-indexing a lot of data. Mine increased too at first. Then just checking mine now, after doing the update Monday (so 2 days later), storage is as it should be. Depending on how much data on your iPhone, it could take a couple days to fully re-index everything.

Still no solution from Apple...i live in Greece and the support told me just to restart my phone. So they have no instructions for solution and that might be for only one reason. They have already so many other problems to solve , relating to updating to IOS 17, so we will wait.

P.S. Iphone SE 2020 64gb, that had under 25gb before IOS 17 and i received the "storage full" after updating.
