And just typing that, and checking the light levels, the battery dropped to 14%.
It seems strange to have such severe battery leaks on a new device (under 3 months old), and stranger that the screen remained on, which can only increase the problem.
EDIT: I remembered I already had a similar problem, at the beginning or November and posted about it: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=291913
I wonder whether I have a dud. My guarantee is until 1/09/2018, but it is annoying being abandoned in transit. I can read some on my phone, but it is uncomfortable and bad for my eyes in the long run - and I don't want to kill the phone's battery as well. |
At least it's not a broken screen. completely discharging the battery is not good thing and will worsen the battery performance.
try calibrate the battery maybe it will help.

One thing I did notice in the current firmware (4.6.10075) is that when the battery level is low 3-9% it didn't shutoff and show the black screen asking to charge the device, it just
stuck stop working, until I charge it.
