battery problem

my fully charged iphone 7 goes dead after 4-5 hours. Battery charge level is quickly restored to 100% in minutes if I charge it. How to remedy phone going dead and losing its charge?

I was just talking with someone on phone with 100% charge and my phone went dead. I plugged it back in and it came back to life in minutes. Google 48% , home and lock screen 14%, notes 10%, stockmaster 9#, and 6 0thers at less than 5% each.

What is your Maximum Capacity in Settings > Battery > Battery Health?

Have you updated iOS in the last few days?

When you say that it charges to 100% quickly from 0%, approximately how long does it take?

Has the amount of time before the iPhone battery reaches low/0% increased?

Also, is the phone used in standby during this time, or are you using it?

What I meant is: does it last 4-5 hours in standby before it needs charging or do you use it?

I dont use it much. Just recently I went to speaker phone on a call when it was 40% charged and phone went dead as soon as I touched speaker button.

I'd suggest contacting Apple, as I can't think of any reason your phone would be draining like this.
