Purchased a refurbished 2016 SE, in settings battery health is 100% but whenever I download anything like apps or podcasts the battery drains really fast, like 4-5% per app download. Is this normal? Or should I return the device?

I just got a new battery installed at the Apple Store in my spare OGSE 2016 and it still drains pretty quick when I use it and I don’t even have a SIM card in it. I’m inclined to agree with other commenters that modern day apps are likely a lot more demanding than they were back when the phone came out.

Same my battery was replaced in June of this year and drains pretty quick. I mean most days I may have to plug it in before end of day or at night pretty wild…I got an iPhone 13 mini coming so I want to compare and try that out
