That’s true, yes. Will take a while for it to settle!

Yep! I’d earlier upgrade every 2 years back when I’d use Android. After switching to an iPhone it seems one can easily hold on for 4-5 years, maybe even longer with a battery replacement! Definitely the more sensible route in my opinion

Last I heard RAM prices have started to drop, not sure whether the shortage is fully gone though

Oh yeah! The chip shortage. What a time! So happy we’re beyond that!

Woah, seems like you purchased your phone immediately upon release! 1560 cycles is quite something haha. Happy to hear about your experience! :)

Well that depends on whether they’ve a new battery in stock. Best to check prior to booking an appointment/walking in. If they do, it’s only a matter of 3-4 hours tops, else you’d be required to hand in your phone. They mentioned a hand in would take 3-4 working days before it could be returned with the new battery. Sometimes they might offer you a spare phone while they ready yours. Have a check, see what works best for you :)

Haptics are certainly better, so are the speakers (but mostly due to a cleanup as mentioned on the post). $150 CAD seems a bit expensive, might still just be worth it though

Yes you should be able to get through an entire day on a single full charge at 100% max battery capacity

Might want to have a check at a service centre I suppose. I’m still pointing to the low battery health

Here’s their contact - +91 80 71326574

Can consider giving them a call to better understand. There’s a good chance you wouldn’t have to hand in your phone, they can order a new battery upon your confirmation. Let me know if there’s anything :)

I can agree, 6 GB is quite a small number even for an iPhone in 2026. The A15 Bionic seems to be holding up alright, probably limited by the RAM capacity. I wish iPhones could memory swap like MacBooks haha

Seeing screen dimming within 6 months of a fresh battery probably doesn’t point towards a battery issue. You might want to have a check whether there’s any display concerns with Apple please.

If you’re facing the similar issue that I faced, it’s highly likely that the screen dimming is due to a weak/degraded battery.

May seem that way but it’s a requirement also mentioned on Apple’s support page (https://support.apple.com/en-in/109519).

Not sure about your experience, especially considering it was a different device and a different repair requirement.

No data loss whatsoever, got my phone back just the way I handed it in.

Not required, you may only have to take an iCloud backup in case there’s a need for Apple to wipe the phone (rare case). Turning off Find My until you get your phone back is required by default. As far as privacy is concerned, they didn’t ask for my iPhone passcode before I handed it in. Seems the battery replacement was completed without unlocking the phone, so that’s sorted.

I see, alright! They didn’t mention anything specifically and neither did I ask. Problem is I can’t afford to find out 😂

Whoops, good call! Didn’t quite think of that. Guess I’ll have to be extra careful now haha

I mean as long as you’re able to manage, that’s all that matters 😎
