When iPhone 5 reaches 50%, it automatically switches off. It does switch on again.

In Settings > General > Date & Time, Set Automatically is turned on.

Is this likely to be a battery or a software problem? Any help appreciated!

    Battery. Common problem with older iPhones. If you take it to an Apple shop they can test if it is the battery.
