Hi VSC82,

If you just bought the iPhone today, it might be normal to have reduced battery life on the first day while you do battery intensive tasks like restoring data, logging into accounts, updating all your apps and device software.

If you've used your iPhone for several days and are getting less battery life than you expect, try following the guide to reviewing your usage and the recommendations here to save battery here:

About the battery usage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

If you have any apps using more battery than you think they should be, consider reinstalling those apps or removing them completely.

Also, do make sure your iPhone is up-to-date with the latest version of iOS:

Update your iPhone or iPad

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
