If it wasn't an Apple-authorized shop, you almost certainly got a
cheap and/or counterfeit battery replacement rather than a genuine
battery from Apple. Very often they don't perform nearly as well.

As always: It depends.

One thing's for sure, getting it replaced at an Apple-authorized shop
definitely gets you an authentic battery.
