I have the same issue,when I first replaced the battery.
Charge and discharge the battery for about ten times in one week the problem will vanish.

Please can anyone help me out with this issue am having with my huawei mate 8. When it changes to 100%. it works 6hrs stretch before it drops 99%. The big issue is, once it drops, I can't charge it again. Once I connect the charger to it, it will begin to drain instead of charging. Any solution please
