I wanted to share my experience since disabling a couple of things on Pixel 7 Pro.
The first thing I did was restrict Samsung Health from recording my physical activity. Since I already have the Galaxy watch 5 connected and recording it, there's no need for my phone to track it as well.
The second thing I did was disable all background location services except for Google.
Since doing these things, I've noticed the phone runs noticeably cooler. Of course YMMV.
Give it a shot and see how it affects your phone. For me, I was ready to trade in my phone for something else. I know, that sounds drastic but I assumed that my phone would be able to disable things that were causing it to use more battery but if it's something that I approved like background apps and location, then it's my own fault.
