Samsung Galaxy S26 ultra battery drain

Dear Galaxy members

I recently bought my new S26U and coming from an S22U the battery life has been nothing but disappointing. I barely get 4-5 hours of SOT while I'm not a heavy user. I have 4 full charge cycles and the battery learning phase is over (as of the menu). I have around 1 hour of Android Auto and 1 hour of background streaming of YT music daily. Other than that I use it for regular tasks, no gaming. Everything is set for adaptive option (screen, battery, CPU performance). Still the battery drains just the same way as my old Exynos-driven S22U (which was the only thing I hated about the phone).

Some said that it needs more time to adapt. But is there a true chance my battery life will double "miraculously"? So far Im very disappointed, the improved battery life was my main reason to switch from the 22....as of now I regret upgrading from the 22 series.
