Nope!
Try recalibrating your battery?

Siri uses a decent amount of battery, so 1% is probably not unusual if you're doing it on LTE/4G as well. I'd have to test it though I've never thought to look at the battery when using Siri.

Why not use it on wifi?

I was having major battery issues after updating to 10.2, as well as random reboots (see thread: "6s Plus Restarting & Battery Draining Sporadically after 10.2 Update").

I tried wiping the phone and starting from scratch (did not restore from backup) and the problem mostly persisted, so I took it to Apple and they swapped it for free (covered under Apple Care).

My battery performance seems to have stabilized after updating to 10.2

If you're having this issue, as a 6S or 6S Plus user you're entitled to a battery or device replacement. There's an official Apple replacement programme for such symptoms for those devices. Just go to your Apple Store and they'll sort it out.
