Iphone battery replacement cost

Hey there! So you have a shiny new iPhone 8 or iPhone X and you can’t wait to start using it. Being the savvy guys (or gals) that we are, we immediately start Googling for tips on how to make our new device last longer. And the first result that comes out talks about battery life and mentions something about the battery replacement program by Apple.

The latest version of the iOS operating system identifies iPhone by a unique number, and the operating system is designed to prevent replacing the battery.

One of the first things you’ll notice when you buy a new iPhone is that it seemed to have trouble holding a charge. Perhaps you’ve found yourself having to charge it at odd hours or just not making it through an entire day with a single charge. That’s because your iPhone’s battery power is slowly draining away.

iPhone batteries are rated to hold 80% of their capacity for up to 500 charge cycles, which lasts roughly 18-24 months for most users. After that, your iPhone may need to be charged far more frequently, and iOS may warn you that performance is affected (in other words, your phone will run slower). Use this guide to replace your battery and restore your iPhone to like-new performance.

If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

Note: After the repair, your iPhone may display a warning about the “genuineness” of the battery, even when using original Apple parts. If your iPhone functions normally, you can safely ignore the warning.

For optimal performance, after completing this guide, calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least two more hours. Then use your iPhone until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted to 100%.

    • Caution: Before you begin, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.
    • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.
    • Remove the two 6.7 mm-long pentalobe P2 screws at the bottom edge of the iPhone.
    • Opening the iPhone’s display will compromise its waterproof seals. Have replacement seals ready before you proceed past this step, or take care to avoid liquid exposure if you reassemble your iPhone without replacing the seals. Add a comment
