A:AnswerWhen I got mine first they had to order the battery. I got to keep my phone while waiting for the part. Once it came in it took like 2-21/2 hours for them to get it done. Make sure you take off you case and scree protecter and be prepared for it to be covered in fingerprints.
A:AnswerI’m about to get my iPhone 12 mini battery replaced, if you make an appt be sure to call anyway to see if they even have a battery in stock for your phone. I had an appt and they weren’t even sure if they had a battery but didn’t have a tech or enough time. They are telling me 3-4 hours to get it done after I had to set up another appt. Hopefully doesnt take that long. $89 without Apple Care.
A:AnswerThey sent mine to Apple to replace it, charging $70. They did not give me the SIM card and I didn’t know to ask for it. I do now!! I waited 3 weeks to finally have a working phone. Three trips to Best Buy not helping. Finally called my server.
A:AnswerBest Buy made an appointment via the service app on apple. They (Apple) did it while I waited. I initially took it to best buy and they told me they would send it away for service, and I could have picked it up the next day. I didn't want to wait. They said if I was willing, I could just drive a little further to the apple store and they could do it while I waited. They even set up the appointment for me.
A:AnswerYou should backup your pictures and anything else you want saved as they could disappear during the replacement. They took just over 1 hour to replace mine.
A:AnswerThanks for your question! At this time, the price should include the battery as well. For support with your battery replacement, please visit www.geeksquad.com/schedule to set up a free consultation at your local Best Buy.
A:AnswerThe local Best Buy store happened to have my battery on hand, so it was more getting on the schedule of the technician that can replace batteries. Only certain technicians can make the replacement. The technician had to look at my phone to see if I was eligible to get a new battery. The amount that the battery is used up is a good indicator. The cost depends on whether it is under warranty or not. I had to just pay labor because it was under warranty.
A:AnswerFrom what I know, yes they will change the battery at a cost and not really Apple has to approve of the services and be notified that the battery or changes being modified to the phone. The appointment is hours of work for the service tech to do his or her job. They will let you know best of luck !
