Hi, and welcome to Android Central Forums.
Just because it's new doesn't mean it can't have a defective battery. Some devices do turn off with a low battery to prevent you from prematurely killing your future battery life. Most schools of thought on battery longevity recommend you charging before you get that low. While I don't follow it to the letter, I try to put my phone back on charge when it gets down to 40 or 30%
