How long does an iPhone battery replacement take?
A battery replacement is one of the fastest, most cost-effective repairs you can do on an older iPhone. Here's what to expect.
The swap itself is quick
A battery replacement is one of the fastest repairs we do — with an aftermarket battery, most models are done in 30–60 minutes when you book ahead. Genuine Apple parts are ordered specifically for your device and normally take 3–5 business days.
Signs your battery needs replacing
Rapid discharge, the phone shutting down even though the battery percentage shows more than 0%, or a "significantly degraded battery capacity" warning in Settings are the clearest signs. You'll find your battery health under Settings → Battery → Battery Health & Charging.
What does it cost?
The price varies by model — check the price list for the exact cost for your iPhone. Every battery replacement is covered by a 12-month warranty.
