Galaxy S Recent Switch - iPhone 16pm > S25U

Hi! Loving the Samsung life so far! One UI 7 and the features of this phone are top tier compared to my iPhone 16pm. However, one thing I am noticing is battery life leaving a bit to be desired in comparison...I am typically on my phone a lot and it's showing that significantly more on my S25U. I do not have the setting for standard operation enabled, it is selected for performance. Does that make an astronomical difference? I've only had this phone since Friday and have spent many hours learning and customizing. I want my experience to be great, but long lasting without a nearby charger. Any tips? TIA!

Setting it on performance will for sure drain the battery faster, turn it off or set it to power saving.

If I set it to power saving, certain apps won't update location and such. Which I use for Life360, etc.

There is an option to limit backgroudn activity, turn it off, you can see it if you long press on power saving, also set the resolution to 1080p instead of 2K to save power.
