I bought the s23 ultra last week and the battery keeps draining soo quickly (1% each 4 to 6 minutes of usage on tiktok or youtube ), 5G off, wifi on, Bluetooth off, brightness the lowest possible with the exta dim option activated, battery usage optimized, nothing in the background working.
I called samsung and they told me to try to switch to the safe mode , i did and the problem persiste, any suggestions ?

If its around 1% every 6 mins, that equals to +/- 600 mins of usage while using tiktok or youtube which is +/- 10hrs of screen on time. Alot of phones don't get that kind of battery life.

Something doesn't add up. If you're losing 1% every 4 to 6 mins, you should be getting way more than 3 to 4 hrs of sot. Did you try clearing cache in recovery as RedDogRabbit suggested?

Will give it a try .. but why do i have to do that for a brand new device! After only a one week of usage !

With a brand new device, it's likely that you have either been restoring a number of apps, or downloading & installing a number of apps. Clearing Cache from Recovery is press painless, and it can clear out any "junk" that may be stuck in the device's Cache. 

I probably Boot into Recovery once a month or more, just to Wipe Cache... not necessarily because of any performance issues, just a habit.
