This isn't CSAM though. CSAM and Communication Safety are two completely separate and different features. Apple did a poor job clarifying this when they first announced them. CSAM is comparing your photos with hashes in a database. Communication Safety is using AI/object recognition to identify what's in the photos.
That makes sense. My iPhone 12 Pro Max is running RC1 while I waited to update my 12.9" iPad Pro 3rd Gen today and it installed build 19C56.
Power Reserve is when the phone dies, and there is enough battery left to keep small things going, such as Find My, Apple transit, IDs, and car keys...the things you don't want to be caught without when your phone is dead.
Does this fix iPod control for older cars with Apple Music?
Also Bluetooth for all cars, including Tesla? When someone wants their phone to start music, thats what they want to hear, not the last YouTube video they watched.

They are ABSOLUTELY NOT ”going to turn on CSAM soon”. “CSAM” is the modern term for child porn. Apple is never ever going to turn on, or include, child porn in anything they release. There has been discussion of turning on a mechanism for scanning for child porn. That’s entirely different from child porn itself. If you can’t be clear on what you are talking about, maybe it’s time to learn a bit more about what is actually being proposed, rather than just yelling variously either “CHILDREN!” or “PRIVACY!”.
2 hours? What? Wow...EDIT: Well, that is the shortest 2 hours I've ever sat through, but it keeps bouncing from 2 to 10 minutes. Just weird update dance this time. The bar isn't even a quarter of the way across yet either. *shrug*

how? you still need to get through a few days of indexing. There's no way anybody knows battery impact yet. It could be even better than 15.1 because 15.1.1 is buggy and stuttery.
The complaints I’ve heard comes from people using various versions of iOS15, not 15.2 specifically. They’re all on iPhone 8 or 7 (and the Plus versions). Although my sample size is small, they universally complaint about overall battery life compared to when they were on iOS 14. These are lay users who simply upgraded because Apple told them to. Remember Apple started pushing ios 15 badge notifications so many people started to think that’s it’s a required upgrade.
Yet another meaningless update by Apple. It should be 15.1.1 at the most.
Here's my personal list of what I'd like to see in the next update:
As to their iphones, I would like to see Apple
1. redesign the notification center. It's ridiculous. At the very least add "Clear All" button immediately, even if there's only one notification.
2. give us an LED visual for notifications in addition to sound and vibration. Allow us the change the colors of the LED based on what the notification app is.
The fine folks who like things the way they are can just turn any or all of this off and be constantly hitting the screen on their phones to see if there are any messages when the phone is on mute, much like we all have to do all day long the way it current is.
3. give us an always-on screen for the clock. On the always-on screen we should also be able to choose if we want to see if we have any notifications (the amount and the app) or if we to just want to see the clock.
Once again, the people who don't like it should be able to turn it off. No more Apple forcing us to do stuff.
4. add haptic feedback to the keyboard and make it possible to customize different intensities to your heart's content.
It's beyond crazy that you have no feedback whatsoever if you're typing and the phone is on mute. Those who are concerned with battery or simply don't like this should be able to turn it off.
5. make it possible to adjust volume for independent apps and settings and not this general thing they're doing. Separate volume control for keyboard volume, music volume, ring volume, system volume.
I, for example, would like the keyboard clicks to be much louder than they are but without it affecting the volume on the entire phone or the ring and notifications volume. It's silly of Apple to force it to be like this.
6. add suggestions from the address book as you start a phone number.
Common now Apple, this has been available for the last 15 years on Android.
7. make it possible to customize the texting app in every conceivable way. Font size, bubble size shape color etc.
8. make it possible to schedule a text message to be sent at a certain time/date. This is a basic feature. Compose your message now and schedule it to be sent when the time is right. I used to use this feature all the time when I had to text people who are in different time zones when they have to get the text at a certain time in their time zone but it's way too late for me to stay up to send the text.
9. use an OS-wide clipboard and make cut and/or copy not expire until you, the user, cleans it.
You should be able to copy text now and paste it tomorrow if you want to.
And 9b make it possible to copy multiple copy entries ready to paste any one of them by long pressing, at least the last 10 cut/copies should be possible.
10. in Mail give us the option to NOT go to the next email when you are deleting an email but to go back to the inbox. Those who want to keep things the way they are should be able to turn this feature off.
11. make it possible to move the icons on the desktop anywhere you want to.

I'm most interested in the App Privacy Report.
