Where to replace the old iPhone battery and the price?

Not only the iPhone but most of the other phones after a process of use, the battery's 'health' is gradually getting worse. Normally, the life of an iPhone battery will decrease after 1 year of use or about 500 charging cycles. The amount of time it takes to use the number of charging cycles depends on the usage. For ordinary users at not too high intensity, iPhone battery will deteriorate after about 2 years of use. After that time, each full charge may be inadequate for one day or even an abnormal battery drop, reporting 30% of the charge that the machine naturally turns off.

If you need to replace the battery for your smartphone, you can go directly to Apple authorized service centers or to the nearest store.

1. Replace genuine Apple batteries

Currently Apple has authorized service centers around the world, as well as in Vietnam. You can bring your phone to these service centers for battery replacement.

In these authorized service centers you can replace batteries or some other components such as Home key, volume key, rear camera, vibrator and external speaker to be replaced. If your device has a hardware error or warranty 1 change 1, these warranty centers do not receive repairs.

Genuine battery replacement price of Apple is quite expensive, for example for the iPhone 6 / 6s Plus, the battery price ranges from 1.8 to 2 million VND. Besides, customers also have to wait 3-4 weeks for replacement parts. Because these components are often sent from Apple's headquarters. And when customers demand, authorized service centers in Vietnam will request to Apple to transfer replacement parts. The old components will then have to be transferred back to Apple for destruction.

For that reason, you do not need to believe in the adverts of repaired goods to be replaced with genuine batteries and cost only a few hundred thousand dong.

2. Replace third party batteries from repair shops

Genuine batteries often have a high price as well as a long wait time, so many people often choose to replace batteries originating from third parties. The advantage of this type of battery is that it is cheap, does not have to wait long, it is always available and taken within a day. The quality of this battery is rated quite well, reaching about 80-90% compared to genuine genuine battery. Currently, some Apple authorized dealers also have a battery replacement service from third parties, meeting consumer needs.

Finding an iPhone battery replacement store is not too difficult. In addition to authorized service centers, most small-scale phone shops have iPhone battery replacement services. The listed price is not much different due to the underground competition among services.

The replacement price of batteries in these third parties ranges from 200 to 400 thousand VND. Specifically, for iPhone 5s / 5SE batteries, the price range is 250-300 thousand VND, while iPhone 6/6 Plus / 6s / 6s Plus batteries cost about 350-400 thousand VND. Replacement batteries for iPhone 7 and 8 are also available, but quite a few, mainly for older iPhone models.

When replacing batteries in these repair shops, you should choose big and reputable shops to avoid your machine being swapped.

3. Replace the battery yourself

If you are a phone repairer or you know a little about disassembling the device, you can also replace the battery yourself at home. When repairing at home, you need to buy the battery yourself and have a full set of 'tools' to disassemble the iPhone, you must also accept the risk of damage or the aesthetics of the device after the work is done. Young or replacement batteries are not guaranteed.

Hopefully with the above information, will help you choose the best battery replacement point for your phone.
