Nexus 5 battery lasts 5 hours before battery saver, how do I diagnose/troubleshoot?

[jd1332]

I have a nexus 5 on ATT running 6.0.1. My battery goes from full charge to battery saver in about 5 hours time. During those 5 hours, I am running pocket casts and google maps simultaneously for approximately 1 hour and then the phone sits idle for about 4 hours. Does this sound right? It doesnt sound right to me. If not, where should I start with the troubleshooting and diagnostic process?

The next time the phone discharges I will post the results of settings > battery.

Thank you AC forums!

ive had the device since either very late 2013 or very early 2014. I traded my new S4 for this used N5, the screen has been replaced by some local shop around Halloween 2014. I did a factory reset around that time as well.

I'm on battery saver now, here are the results of Settings > Battery

Bluetooth 13%
Google Play Services 11%
Maps 7%
Android Wear 5%
Pocket Casts 4%
