A browser from an Ad company and … I don’t know what Mozilla is these days. Doesn’t sound very reassuring. I hope they’d at least try to address memory and performance issues from their desktop counterparts. One amazing (and unmatched) feature of Safari on any platform it runs on is how smooth and battery friendly it is.

I browse the web most of the day on my Pixel 6 Pro, and battery usage indicates Chrome has taken 3% of my battery since last full charge. I'm sure iOS has a similar battery usage monitoring feature, I'm curious what percent Safari shows for you?

edit: and I'm at 13% remaining (blame TikTok), so not like I just woke up with a full charge.

The % is related to the amount of time you spent in a given app (and how much battery it consumes in that period). If you don't use your browser, then of course, you will not see battery use allocated to it.
