Re: iphone 5s battery drains quickly after ive had new battery fitted

Maybe it's what you're doing on the phone. To see if the battery is bad, take this test:
Write down your usage and standby time, press the sleep/wake button (or lock button, as some call it) to put the device to sleep, and set the device down for five minutes. When you come back, take note of the change in time. If your device is sleeping properly, then the Standby time should have increased by five minutes and your Usage time by <1 minute . If your Usage time rises by more than one minute, you have a drain problem. Something is keeping your device from sleeping properly, significantly shortening the time it will last.

Maybe it is how you're using it. Battery life on my 5s is good. Good luck.

Your new battery may be defective. Where did you get it and who installed it? If its a recently purchased battery you should have a warranty on it.
