Q: iPhone 5 Battery Problems. PLEASE HELP!

Hello, I bought a second hand iPhone 5 recently, and I just had it unlocked. I set it up today, and I have found that the battery life is terrible. I am not sure if this happens to everyone's iPhone 5, but I think mine is not right. For example: Earlier, I played a 3d game (World of Tanks Blitz to be precise), and that battery was, I believe, about 80%. I played for about 15 minutes, and it was down to 50%. In comparison, I can play the same game on my iPad Air for about 5 hours straight, and it only goes down about 50%. Another example was I was browsing Facebook for about 5/10 minutes. The battery was about 50% when I went on, and about 5% when I finished. I have had to charge my iPhone up about 5 times today, and even though it goes to 100%, it won't hold a charge. Is this the same for everyone, or will the battery be a bit dead, if you see what I mean?! I know I can turn off things like auto-refresh, but I don't want to. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.2
