Give it some time. Battery drain is not linear, and a new phone will use more juice in the beginning as various apps and services sync and settle down. FWIW, I leave mine unplugged overnight with two IMAP email accounts syncing, and lose 4-to-5% in 8.5hrs.

That you only charged your phone for the very first time yesterday and you you are comparing it to a phone that has been through a few re-charging cycles! Give it a week and see how it shapes up.
