Smartphones have become an integral part of everyday life. Our life has become so dependent on these phones for work, socialization, and entertainment. From using official applications (to compile data and create presentations) to social media applications (to connect with friends and family), our life circulates cell phones. If somehow your phone stops functioning or gets broken then the world seems to stop. The most common cause of error in cell phones is a malfunctioning battery. A malfunctioned battery can be quite frustrating as it can slow down the phone, needs recharging very frequently, and can even shut down the phone disconnecting you from the rest of the world. In this article, we will answer frequent queries to deal with a malfunctioned battery.
Is it worth replacing the phone battery?
The phone battery is the vital equipment that keeps the phone functioning. It is not something out of normal that a phone battery gets damaged or has a low charge-discharge rate making you recharge your phone again and again with quick battery drainage. Battery issues range from lower performance to even unexpected phone shutdowns. When the battery reaches such a point then it is time for some action. Many people argue that once a battery has got damaged then it is useless to keep using the same phone and one should buy a new phone to enjoy a great functioning phone. But is it always feasible to buy a new phone? Replacing the phone battery instead seems like a smart option. But the decision is quite tricky. When replacing the phone battery the most important aspect is the age and usage of the phone. Normally a phone battery lasts for 2 years after which it starts to degrade naturally. In other words, a good phone battery offers 500 to 600 charge-discharge cycles after which its’ performance gets compromised. Considering these statistics, It is worth it to replace a phone battery to prolong the useful life of your phone if you are using the (new) phone for less than 2 years. If the battery gets damaged in the first 2 years then it is feasible to replace the battery rather than invest a lot more in a new phone. On the contrary, if the battery is in use for more than 2 years then it is better to replace the phone because it shows that the battery is under a lot of additional stress due to new updates and applications which the older battery (or any other battery with the same capacity)a
What to do after replacing the phone battery?
After replacing the phone battery with help of a professional you can take some protective measures to take care of battery health. It is possible that the replaced battery is not as good as the original phone battery this is why always make sure to get a genuine battery as a replacement battery. A little care can help you, in both cases, to protect your battery from any probable damage. You can take care of these things after replacing your phone battery:
While charging, make sure that your phone does not get into contact with insulated surfaces.
If your phone is getting hot then it means some backup app is not shutting down and is taking a toll on the battery’s health. This is why you should turn off any such backup application that makes your phone hot. Although the heat doesn’t indicate any extra load on the battery it will eventually affect the battery's health if not dealt with properly.
It is better to turn off those features that are not in use to save the battery from being discharged where it isn’t needed such as Bluetooth (once in a while when you need to share data via Bluetooth only then turn it on). Similarly, other applications that are not in use or even wifi can be turned down to keep the processor cool.
During winter you should keep the phone closer to your body to transfer body heat to the phone and offer it a cozy atmosphere.
How much does it cost to replace a phone battery?
The cost of battery replacement depends upon several factors. The nominal factors include the company (android, Apple, others), phone model, dealer, and process. Due to these factors, the prices may vary considerably. But don’t worry we will still share a fair cost evaluation to give you an idea about the probable cost of battery replacement in a phone.
For Android, the price of battery replacement falls below $100. The company can even send a representative to your location to repair the phone on-site but of course, it will cost a bit more as you have to compensate for the commute of that person as well.
As for Apple users, the cost of battery replacement ranges from $49 to $99 depending on the model. The charges for older versions are around $49, for newer versions are $69 whereas for the latest model iPhone 14 and its version the cost is $99.
These are the prices of official stores. You can always go to local mobile repair shops. But these shops usually charge a bit more and there is a good chance that you will end up with an unprofessional person to do the job. Some people also try to replace the batteries on their own by following the DIY (do it yourself) tutorials but it is not recommended because the battery needs to be carefully replaced to ensure its functionality. This is why you should always try to visit an official store to get your battery replaced by a professional person.

You can visit them to get you replaced, call their professional representative at your home, or even get your battery replaced via mail.
