"body": "I just got this new phone last week and the battery life is terrible. It was fine for the first couple days but now it's dropping like 20 percent an hour even if I'm not using it much. I checked the battery usage screen and nothing obvious is eating it up. I'm starting to think I got a lemon or something. I don't want to go through the hassle of returning it already though."

That sounds rough this kind of drain on a new phone is really frustrating and not what you expect.
Could be normal during setup or a rogue app acting up you may not notice on first days but it should recover soon.
In my own experience I once saw fast drain after a big update, a clean reset and re installing essentials fixed it.
If it stays bad tell support to swap it under warranty dont waste time with a lemon.
