But if you&#8217;ve been using your iPhone for three four, or even five years, you may just be ready to upgrade. So let&#8217;s be honest &#8212; plenty of people are going to think about upgrading instead of repairing, so we\u2019re going to explore the upgrade options first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-xs-6 col-sm-3\" align=\"left\"><div class=\"cell_product search\" data-alc=\"303\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12\" class=\"image\" title=\"Apple iPhone 12\" aria-label=\"Product Apple iPhone 12\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/e7\/e6\/e7e650bed4c3d5152f7905391331fa94.png\" class=\"img-responsive img-responsive\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 12\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12\" class=\"title\" aria-label=\"Apple iPhone 12\">Apple iPhone 12<\/a><div class=\"cell_footer clearfix\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12\" class=\"price\">$<span>298<\/span>+<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-xs-6 col-sm-3\" align=\"left\"><div class=\"cell_product search\" data-alc=\"303\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12-mini\" class=\"image\" title=\"Apple iPhone 12 Mini\" aria-label=\"Product Apple iPhone 12 Mini\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/42\/f7\/42f7e00af104deaeb08b9e21d2995454.png\" class=\"img-responsive img-responsive\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 12 Mini\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12-mini\" class=\"title\" aria-label=\"Apple iPhone 12 Mini\">Apple iPhone 12 Mini<\/a><div class=\"cell_footer clearfix\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-12-mini\" class=\"price\">$<span>226<\/span>+<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-xs-6 col-sm-3\" align=\"left\"><div class=\"cell_product search\" data-alc=\"303\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13\" class=\"image\" title=\"Apple iPhone 13\" aria-label=\"Product Apple iPhone 13\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/5d\/4d\/5d4d5516e15f669fd79a4c9742ba0327.png\" class=\"img-responsive img-responsive\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 13\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13\" class=\"title\" aria-label=\"Apple iPhone 13\">Apple iPhone 13<\/a><div class=\"cell_footer clearfix\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13\" class=\"price\">$<span>439<\/span>+<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"col-xs-6 col-sm-3\" align=\"left\"><div class=\"cell_product search\" data-alc=\"303\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13-mini\" class=\"image\" title=\"Apple iPhone 13 Mini\" aria-label=\"Product Apple iPhone 13 Mini\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/ca\/85\/ca85444a2d7faabe823ca29965fea31c.png\" class=\"img-responsive img-responsive\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 13 Mini\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13-mini\" class=\"title\" aria-label=\"Apple iPhone 13 Mini\">Apple iPhone 13 Mini<\/a><div class=\"cell_footer clearfix\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-13-mini\" class=\"price\">$<span>391<\/span>+<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Spending $338+ to buy an iPhone 13 may be a bit over budget compared to a $89 battery replacement cost &#8212; but if your current iPhone is already a few years old, the added cost will be offset because you are just as likely to also use this new iPhone for several years into the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure which iPhone to buy?

And, as a result of being such a common repair &#8212; it can often be completed relatively quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you\u2019ll notice in the table below, Apple charges either $69, $89, or $99 for a battery replacement. The $99 price point is for the more recent iPhone families, the $89 price point is for most other &#8216;newer&#8217; models, and the $69 price point is for &#8216;older&#8217; models such as the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. A local repair shop is generally going to be close in price, but there is a potential to pay more for some models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The table below compares the battery replacement cost at local repair shops, versus the out-of-warranty cost from Apple, versus skipping the battery replacement and replacing the device itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes table-condensed

Pricing is current as of December 18, 2023.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While price is important, you should also consider your time. Not everyone has an Apple Store close to where they live or work, so that may rule out the Apple Store as an option. To be fair, Apple does offer battery repair service by mail, but that adds $6.95 to the cost and it also means you\u2019ll be without your phone while it is being shipped and repaired, which is less than ideal. This is the point when people start thinking about repairing themselves or begin trying to find a local repair shop for same-day service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can-I-replace-the-battery-in-my-iPhone\"><\/span>Can I replace the battery in my iPhone?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The short and simple answer is NO, you should not try to replace the battery in your iPhone. The truth is, while we often want to think we are capable of handling certain tasks, there are some things better left to the professionals. Smartphone repair is one of those tasks, so let\u2019s put aside the thoughts of trying to save money by swapping your iPhone\u2019s battery all by yourself and focusing on more important things, such as finding a trusted local repair shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apple-Self-Service-Repair\"><\/span>Apple Self-Service Repair<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On the topic of the right to repair: In November 2021, Apple announced the \u201cSelf Service Repair\u201d program and launched it in early 2022. This repair program provides kits that include genuine Apple parts along with the necessary tools and manuals to complete the repair. This option may be worth considering, but it means getting large and heavy items shipped to you by Apple, then doing the repair, and then shipping those large and heavy items back to Apple &#8212; which honestly, sounds less than ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where-can-I-get-my-iPhone-battery-replaced-locally\"><\/span>Where can I get my iPhone battery replaced locally?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve set aside the thoughts of trying to replace the battery yourself &#8212; the next step is finding a local repair shop you can trust.&nbsp;You may think the best starting point is using Google to \u201cfind a smartphone repair shop near me\u201d but Swappa has a more straightforward approach: the Swappa Repair Network, which offers a quick and easy way to find a trusted repair shop in your local area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align:center\" class=\"wp-block-wp-bootstrap-buttons\"><a class=\"btn btn-primary btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/repair\">SWAPPA REPAIR NETWORK<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Preparing-to-get-your-battery-replaced\"><\/span>Preparing to get your battery replaced<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should always back up the data on your iPhone, just in case of an emergency type of thing.
