iPhone Repair

Hey folks,

My iPhone XR battery maximum capacity is reduced to 78%.

Thinking of getting the battery changed to push it for another 1-2 years.

Has anyone done a battery change before? Is it worth it?

Thanks,

Would recommend getting an iPhone 14 pro or the upcoming 15 series from the USA ( via a friend travelling to India). The Cameras and displays are a significant upgrade compared to the XR.

Most people don’t need anything past iPhone 11. You are taking pics of random stuff, the quality is already good enough

I got battery changed for older iPhone, was like 1200inr, was 100% with it. It works better now.

Just change the battery.

Did u just go to apple store to get this done or first called customer support? Also is this price for out of warrantee ?

Was way out of warranty. I went to shop that was well rated. It said Foxconn on the container the battery came from. Though I have no idea how genuine the battery was. But works fine.

78% isn't too bad, should last you an year or two. Else follow what @SilentBiopsy says, battery replacement can be done on third party or even official "imagine stores"

This is my 3rd iPhone.. the previous 2 I changed battery after 3 years and they usually work smooth for another 1.5-2 years

I am in a similar dilemma and have an 11 pro. I’ll be trying to go another year without battery change and then upgrading to a newer version.

Considering you’re on the XR, it makes sense to upgrade to a 14/14 Pro instead of trying to prolong its life further.

What phone do you use?

Which phone are you currently using and how long have you been using it? Why did you buy this in the first place? Are you planning to switch onto a new phone in this Big Billion or Great Indian sale?

I don't get the hype why people want an iPhone when they can't afford one?

Phone is a necessity. Ok cool, no problem. But expensive phone, oh sorry SUPER EXPENSIVE PHONE??? Not really. If you can't afford one, why do you want to buy one? EMI pe phone lena, does it even make sense? And why do you want to go over...
