Battery New S5

[daddynexxus]

Just got my S5 today, fully charged and sat it on my desk off the charger. Picked up the phone and the battery went down 4% after about 15-20 minutes. Okay no big deal, research research research....

Close this, close that, firmware update phone, uncheck this box check this box, remove this auto update remove that auto update.

Okay, did some things. I'm not doing much. I have a brand new phone and I have to change 20 settings in order to not lose 4% battery life after less than half an hour?

Bad phone? Bad battery? Thanks for any advice.

Welcome to AC
Could you post screenshots of your battery stats? If it's a new device, it can take a few days for the battery to "settle in" a bit before seeing more normal battery life. I'd wait a bit to see if it improves, and return if it doesn't since you're still in the return period

I have also the same cell phone and my battery is totally good. I charge my phone 3 days in a week and it is enough charged all time when I want to use it.
