Battery icon on phone shows100 (just charged it) , but battery life says 21%. Is this a defective battery?

Try restoring first it will wipe data on phone so backup data by iTunes backup before doing so.

If that doesnt help defective battery.

Just restored and have same problem. Battery shows 97 charge, battery availability is 21 percent. Looks like a defective battery.

@vortex64 no reason to "grab a replacement elsewhere". iFixit stands behind their products and will make it right. @nogalarry just contact support@ifixit.com and I am sure this too will get fixed.
