Laptop battery loses charge when turned off

I have the most recent Aldi laptop. When I got if first I charged it up fully. I didn't use it for about a week and when I went to yurn it on the battery was dead. Shouldn't the battery remain charged if not in use?

It should last longer than that but if it was the first charge then maybe not.
Try it again and see.
