Update your iPhones, iPads, and Macs today, because there are fixes for active exploits inside

I hate to say this but proceed with caution on this one. After updating Safari on my iPad is severely Fed up. If I tap on links they don’t open, they are added to my reading list. I have to hold them long enough for the thumbnail to pop up and then tap on the thumbnail. 

EDIT: Ok, another reboot seems to have cleared things, but be prepared.

I have this issue for a while now, well before this (I think since v14.0). If I tap on a link from an email it opens up safari but stops there. Blank page. Only after I repeat the same sequence it will load up the linked page and display the result. 

Just had a very strange thing happen after updating my 13 mini.  I had over 50% battery and was not using phone much after the update.  I went to bed and now the next morning phone would not come on showing the connect charging cable message.  I hooked up the charging cable and phone was drained but started charging.    This is first time I’ve ever seen such a thing after and iOS update.

Sometimes there's a fair amount of tidying up in the background after an update. I noted that following the 16.4 update, it came back with the "hello" screen that usually only shows after a major annual OS update. That suggests to me that 16.4 was a more significant update than usual. So if you were on 16.3.x and updated to 16.4.1, your battery drain was probably just the aforementioned 'tidying up.'

Was on 16.4 and about 55% battery when going to bed,  it drained off during 8 hours sleep.  but maybe just a one off issue.  Storage seemed to increase by about 3gb the next day.  Also,  maybe I’m imagining it or maybe the latest iOS is faster than earlier versions.  Phone is very responsive, seems better.
