My iPhone 4S was fine. Got it on the day of launch.
The other day I charged to 100%, got a over 24 hours and the % was dropping very slowly. I thought "WoW" its got great battery now.
It then got to 20% and it turned off. Tried turning back on and got the familiar symbol of a red battery indicating it needed charging. So I put it on charge and when it turned on it said 21% battery.
I unplugged it and as soon as it got to 20% battery it died again.
Ive done a restore, not from backup, but from new.
charged to 100% and still when it hits 20% it turns off and tells me if I try to turn it on, that it needs charging.

Anyone else noticed this?
