I mean how many years will the battery last does it die over time and is that why its not holding its charge and I will have to get a new phone.

I reckon batteries last about 2 years or around 150 charges before they start to show reduced capacity. They don't often die unless abused, but the ever shortening life gets to be a bother.

AS most other people have said it does vary between model and make, some phones last 2-3 days some last 1 week but ultimately if your phone is needing to be charged every day then its time for a new battery

Sometimes you need to replace the battery samsungs can last up to maybe 2 days.
My sony erricson lasts for 4 days with no charge and 30 seconds with no battery.

Maybe you fried your battery that means you probably been charging your phone when it doesnt need to be charged thats what happened to mine so I bought a new battery! Hope this helps oh yeah you can go to your company store and buy one or ask them

if you find that your battery is not holding a charge it is time to replace you will get a longer life if you only charge it when it shows on your phone that it is at its last bar of strength .

I think it's time for a new phone or a new battery.
3 Years is good..... i would have thought it would have died by now.

It varies wildly between make and model of phone. Replacement batteries are cheap. Check on ebay.

About 200 recharges before it needs replacing. So, anything from 2 years plus.....

it depends on what type of phone you have. if you have a shitty olden day phone then it will probably on last 25 hrs. if u hav a good phone it will last for about 3 days. mine lasts for about three days on standby.
