I don't want to purchase a new battery if my phone is the issue.
The most simple way is to look at the battery and see if it is flat (it should be levelled and flat), place your battery into another phone (in a store, for example), or just carry your phone to a Samsung service center to see if they can quickly test it.
The less common way is either using different USB chargers and USB ports and outlets, using a voltmeter to check the remaining battery charge, or charging a battery with a Spare Battery Charger and seeing if it works.
