Battery Drain

My phone dies really quickly and when I take a picture the phone dies after afew minutes even if it's on 100%, when I put it on again it will be on a reduced percentage and drain very quickly sometimes even say 0% and shut down when the phone is on a higher percent, as high as 90%. I performed a software repair using Xperia companion and the problem is still persisting

I thought so, that it was older than 2 years, there's nothing wrong with your phone, just that the battery can't hold as much charge as it used to.
