My battery drains even while off. Then I have to reset the time/date

Anyone know why Sony AXXXX cameras all have this battery drain issue?

I have tried all kinds of solutions I found online, like turning off wifi and stuff. The worst thing is that I have to set the time/date every time I replace the battery. This tells me that maybe the internal battery is no good…?

If it is requiring you to reset the time each time the battery is out than yes sounds like the internal battery is bad.

Thanks. It’s someone else’s problem now. I sold it and switched to the Canon G7X mk II
