Hello,

Hmm, seems like a lot, however:

With any new version of iOS there are always maintenance and reindexing tasks to be performed. It should settle down in a few days.

1) Have you tried a restart?  If not, do it now.

2) Go to Settings > Battery > BATTERY USAGE BY APP to see the apps that are consuming your battery.

Also check for Optimized Battery Charging:

Good luck.
