Questions about battery replacement

How do I know it’s the battery and not the phone?

Fast drain, sudden shutdowns and heat are the usual signs. We can check it in person.

How do I check battery health on an iPhone?

Go to Settings, then Battery. On most recent iPhones, Battery Health shows the maximum capacity. If it’s low or says Service, the battery is worn.

Is a swollen battery dangerous?

It can be. Stop charging the phone, don’t press on the bulge, and bring it in.

Do you replace laptop and tablet batteries too?

Ask us with the model and we’ll tell you what we can do.
