I bought my S25 Plus last September from Samsung. I was using an S23 Plus previously. The first thing I noticed was the awesome battery life. It lasted much longer than the S23. I'm a gig driver and I use the Walmart Spark app constantly for shopping orders. I could do an entire order and it would still be at 98%. I will admit that I probably plugged it into the charger in the car more than I needed to. I don't think I let it get below 75% too much. The phone is updated with all the current patches & apps are updated.
Well last week out of the blue it started draining FAST. I was able to get it down to 35% in probably 4 hours or so. I think that's the first time it ever saw 35%! The app support people are useless, they just say take it into a technician. I don't have any new apps and I really don't run much else when I'm working. Could this be a defective battery? Did I ruin it by charging or topping it off too often? Is there any way of testing the battery to see if its normal?
Here's a screenshot of my battery graph. Where its dropping fast is when I'm using the app. Without plugging it in it'll never last for a 10 hour day. This doesn't seem right for a fairly new phone, and especially when using the same app for work back when I got it and I could go a few hours and be over 90%.
