update : I used the iphone for about 3 days now almost and i don't need to recharge it during the day.
but it still can't drain below 5% battery . it always shut down betweens 5-10 %
yesterday it shut down at 6% and 60 sec later i restarted it. and it had 8%, and after 10 sec it shut down again. i restarted it more then 10 times. without charger. I tried to drain it below 5% to get 1. I couldn't.

Most phones auto shutdown around 5%. Over discharging is just as bad as over charging lithium batteries and can cause a reaction.

This isn't true

I've never had a phone auto shut at 5% or under. I've actually had most phones go to 1-2% and last pretty long on 2 (imho) before it is completely dead.

Wow I thought it was only me -- this happens like 3 times a week so glad I'm trading it in for the 7

Update : they replaced my iphone 6s, not apple but my carrier.
It was a motherboard issue.

So the issue persisted after apple replacing the battery? Did you carrier do a manufacture warranty or AppleCare+ claim?

Apple did't replace my battery , they replaced the screen for no reason...
It didn't make a difference.
So I went to my carriere where i buy it, they did some tests, but didn't find problems . So they purposed to film it.
I filmed the issues with a friend his iphone. Showed the video. The replaced it instant. I got refurb one.
Battery 100% health again
1 charge in 24 hours normal ussage.
I'm happy
