After the Latest Update, My Battery started draining.
Did some reading and tried everything.
Last but not least, I reset My Network Settings and it worked. Battery no longer Draining.
Only catch is , you'll have to reconnect everything so if you have a Watch, you need to back it up first. 
Good luck

"Tried everything"? included doing what exactly? 

Normally network connectivity drain, occurs when there's a poor network connection, and that could be the network itself, location or other factors unrelated to the device itself, but good on you! 👍🏻

Everything that Samsung suggested. No I do not have a poor network connection. Hence, I've tried everything lol

Did "everything" include Wiping Cache from Recovery & a Factory Reset?

Didn't have to factory reset. It was my last option if resetting networks didn't work. I always clear my Cache and optimize my phone , it's a habit.
My network was rebooted from my phone company a month prior to the update on Dec 31/2022. Didn't have battery drain until the update. I barely use my phone. Even put Apps in deep sleep and used power saving. Nothing worked except resetting networks.
Came across it in this, so I tried it.

K, was just looking for clarification on the "everything", because if it was in fact EVERYTHING, including a Factory Reset, then Resetting the Network settings would have already been done by the Factory Reset, so Resetting the Network settings again, wouldn't have actually likely been the reason for the improvement 😊

No problem. I'm just glade I didn't have to do a factory reset lol. I was annoyed with just setting up my watch again. Don't ask me what happened there lol.
