Google play services battery drain

[talberry]

Hey all! I've gotten a s21 about a week ago and I noticed that Google play services is using quite abit of battery.
It used about 10% yesterday. Anyone got this too? And is there any way to reduce its usage? Its all background use...

Force stop it then monitor next battery cycle

Is your overall battery life actually suffering from it, or is this just something you noticed incidentally?

I think that happens when there are a large number of updates. But after a week it should have settled down.
