Normally some new devices trends to be unstable in batery issues.

Try to charge it every day during a week and try to at least 2 times
during this week wait the bat goes completely empty before charge it
again (hotsync to backup your data before do this)

This is just in begin after a certain time (2 weeks) it will become
normal again, but try to charge it every day.
