Battery is OK-ish for me, but I'm on an XS which is currently nearly 3 years old and at 94% health.
One oddity I have seen though with this newer version I have not seen before is that if I put my phone into Airplane mode, I stop seeing stats on the battery usage screen. I'm not a heavy user by any means, but I do have an Apple Watch paired so there is some (~6% or so per day) drain on idle anyway, so I would expect something to reflect in battery usage even with minimal use.
Once I take my phone out of Airplane mode, it tracks battery usage like you'd expect, but only starting from the moment Airplane mode was turned off.
I've tried a few reboots and nothing seems to fix it. Not sure if this is just my device(s) being weird or not.

An update to an audio that only I seem to be afflicted by - which may or may not be related to iOS 14.6...If anyone cares, my weird audio & app pausing thing appears to have been related to the lightning Ear Pods. My issue could be fixed temporarily by unplugging and replugging them in. Issue never occurred when the Ear Pods were unplugged. Apple Support wanted me to do a factory reset. Wasn't prepared to do that, but tried doing a "Reset All Settings" (vs "Erase All Content and Settings") and affter about a week, that seems to have fixed it...
Was this related to iOS 14.6? I have no idea...
tl;dr - if you are having weird audio pausing and app pausing issues, maybe "Reset All Settings" can help...
Two things have happened since my last post:
1. The issue eventually came back after I did the above mentioned "Reset All Settings".
2. I got new lightning wired Earpods, and the problem still continues.
So, I continue with my workaround of unplug/replug headphones when the audio pausing issue recurs. Sigh.
