I've been using my 11" M1 iPad Pro for about a year now and I'm very satisfied. I use it a lot for FaceTime Video calls.
Somehow recently I noticed that battery usage for FaceTime has increased quite a bit, but I'm not sure if I'm just seeing things or if something got worse with iOS 15.
Currently FaceTime uses about 25% of battery every hour for me, which means I go from 100% to 0% in 4 hours. I remember that this value was somehow higher when I got the iPad.
Battery health is fine according to Coconut Battery, and I'm on Wifi (and I didn't change the Wifi setup since).
Did iOS 15 improve something in the FaceTime Codecs, making them more bandwidth-optimized but using more CPU power to get there? Then it would make sense. Or am I missing something?
What battery values are you seeing on FaceTime?
