Most of the posts that have surfaced online are of the iPhone 13, however, we don¡¯t really know if all the iPhone models or just the ones that face Face ID with face mask support (iPhone 12 and above).
As per an official response from Apple, the company is asking users to do absolutely nothing as of now, since the variations in battery life are normal for up to 48 hours post-installation of a new version of OS. Apple says most of the time the issues settle down eventually.

Thanks for reaching out! We'll be happy to help. It's normal for your apps and features to need to adjust up to 48 hours after an update.

Let's have you reach out to us in a DM if this is still an issue after that time so we can help you look into this further.
This is since it's not just the updated OS that¡¯s evaluating what it has got on the particular iPhone (since no two iPhones are the same), it also takes time for third party devs to tweak their apps based on the update to make sure it¡¯s running seamlessly.
