Battery keeps draining after shutoff

I recently got a second-hand iPhone X handed down to me, so I'm not overly familiar with all its quirks.

My phone continues to drain the battery after I shut it off. If I turn the phone off overnight without plugging it in. When I try to turn it on the next morning the battery is completely drained and I have to plug it it and wait for it to charge up enough to turn back on.

Is this normal behavior? Is there a setting to change this? I did some searching online but didn't find a solution.

Battery might be replaced from 3rd party company, I have experienced same on my older iPhone. Try getting genuine battery replacement, it will make your phone faster & long lasting battery.

Agree, try replacing your battery. That is not normal.

Such behavior is not normal, though battery replacement is best option but you may also try coconut battery or iMazing software for your current battery health related info
