There are so many factors that go in to battery life. Try cycling it, by completely draining it and keep it off plug it in and don't mess with it until it is fully charged. I think getting a new battery would be a waste. I'm still on the same one from Sept. of last year. It also has to do with phone usage, if I keep an eye on my data connections and make sure my phone is idle when I'm not using it, I find I can get almost 3 full days sometimes. Then there are other times where I'll only get a day. Try a few different things, such as changing your settings for data connections, i.e. how often your phone updates the weather, stocks, email, and all those goodies. Try a few things before you make your final decision.
