Then, we put it in my phone, turned off the screen, and I waited in the store for 30 minutes. It went from 50% to 38%.
So, it seems like the phone was killing battery life for some reason.

I'm not sure if that is valid test unless wireless setting, apps are all identical. Anyway glad that you got it exchanged with better one. But I'm just afraid battery drain will be back to like your first one after you add your apps, settings. Just be aware of the tips given in this thread. Good luck.
