After Restart, GS6 Battery Losing Percentage by the Minute

[AC Question]

Hey all,

After not restarting my Samsung Galaxy S6 phone for a few months, I decided to after some network errors and noticed after a fully charged phone, my phone was losing battery percentage at a really alarming rate. I charged the phone fully to 100%, took it off the charger and it immediately dropps to 98%. Watched a video on YouTube, browsed Amazon, and I kept noticing the battery dropping a percentage just about every minute. Here at work, I'm playing Spotify via a WiFi connection, and since 9:30am (It's not 11:00) my battery is at 75% with no other apps running.

Wondering if it's worth doing a factory reset? Should I wait to fully charge my battery before doing that? What would be the best approach to getting my battery back to normal.

Thanks!

Did your battery usage stats give any clues? Perhaps there was a lot of updating going on.
