iPad Air 4 (2020) delay in turning on screen (iPadOS 26.1)

After updating to latest software, it takes a while for the screen to turn on. If I double tap, it won't turn on. I have to keep on double tapping for it to turn on. The same with the power button. One press and the screen does not turn on. I have to continuously press it for the screen to turn on.

Anyone else experiences this on their iPad
