My, approaching 2 year old, tablet appears to have a dying battery It goes from 30% to 0% in less than 5 minutes - and when charging, goes from 20% to 40% in a flash - then takes 4 hours to go to 70% - where it sits for another couple of hours It lasts around 2 hours from 100%... Is this covered under its 2 year warranty ?
