So, as it stands i charge my phone to 100% overnight whilst wifi is connected.
Without power saving mode turned on these are my stats:
0600 - 100%
0900 - 88% after listening to a 25 minute podcast, looking for news/weather/ebay/social media
13.00 - 73% after watching 30 minutes of the news on Youtube
16.00 - 61% finishing work
19.00 - 40% after listening to another 25-minutes of a podcast, watching news on Youtube, social media, eBay, etc.
21.00 - As of writing this it's now down to 25% watching 30 minutes of Youtube (phone reviews), music and news on YT and writing notes. I did not do any gaming, long video streaming or any video editing.
Screen on time is just over three hours.
Any thoughts on these?

I do check the apps that I have downloaded, deleted and disabled the apps that I do not need and use often, I make sure the battery options is set to "Optimized", etc.
I heard that Adaptive display (or Auto brightness) does help? I thought it's the opposite?
I also heard something about turning off Google Ads Services?

Samsung and Android apps are known for the too high background activity on every Android phone. Only: Viber, Gmail, Drive, Reminder, and Mobile Services are in default mode. I do not have any problem using all those apps while they are in deep sleep mode. I tested it for a year.
I do not use dark mode, not even at Samsung internet's google search engine.
I do use a blue light filter, i.e. Comfort Eye Shield because I look too much to screen over the day. Also, because of high default light screen brightness, I use it at 40%. Mobile data and WiFi are simultaneously always on. Battery easily lasts a day with around 6 hours of screen on time. When I do not use phone a lot it goes to even a day and a half. It is Snapdragon variant 6, 128.

So far, I've noticed the standby seems great. But when just doing basic tasks such as browsing, watching Youtube, looking at the news/weather, downloading apps the battery drops almost significantly I would say. I would say 1% per 5 minutes. I will have to observe more in the next few days as the phone is still learning my usage patterns.
FYI, I'm on the latest One UI 6.0, Battery saving turned Off and have turned off all unnecessary settings that we all know what they are.
Any thoughts?

By those numbers the better experience is quantified and more objective. It is ridiculous to even compare this phone with A class.

What other battery saving tips i need to do to save battery apart from everything that is known out there?

Performance also improved for instance my Snapdragon v. 6, 128 has geekbench 6.2.2: single core 1504 and multi-core 3512 result.

Also SoC of A34 is not comparable to s21 fe. s21 is way way better even than a54 and will be better than a55. Look at numbers.
