Galaxy Tab 3 battery problem

[Marc-Andre Dore]

Hi,

i have a galaxy Tab 3 4.1.2 model SM-T210

Problem as started like 3 weeks ago.

So here's whats happening with it:
- I plug the table it charge in less then 5 min (Something wrong) So i let the tablet charge all night
- Next morning my kid play with it, in less then 10 min, battery is at less then 1% of usage, screen become darker because is says LOW BATTERY
- He stop playing with it, it's still less than 1% an hour later tablet at 95%
- And it's same thing all the time

I've tried resetting the tablet from scratch, and same thing

Is this a know issue because i have the tablet for less than a year

Let me know please

Thank you
Marc

Sounds like a defective battery with heat related performance issues. If it warms up the output voltages drops through the floor, and when charging it quickly stops accepting power because the chemical process is failing.
