When you purchase an iPhone or iPod, no matter which model you purchased at some point you will need to replace the battery. Since a battery lifespan will not last forever an iPhone battery new is the way to go. You probably might be able to find refurbished iPhone batteries or perhaps a slightly used iPhone battery but generally getting the iPhone battery new is the best all round investment because by purchasing that iPhone battery new you will get a nice long lasting battery that has been tested by the seller so that it meat certain specifications.

One thing you should do if you are replacing an iPhone battery is to at least purchase a new battery that is equivalent or better than the original battery that came with the iPhone. And it is just a fact that batteries do wear out and need replacing at some point in time.

Since a battery replacement is one of the cheapest items in an iPhone that needs repair it is not a big issue as to when or where you replace that battery. However perhaps you might think it is the battery and it may be something else that is making you think the battery is at fault. You may be experiencing low usage times with no staying power. You may have the low battery icon staying on it may mean that the power button is the problem or you may need to change the charge dock connector. But it may be the battery instead. If the unit won’t boot up for you it is generally battery related. However if you have an iPhone where the back is hot and the power is draining fast when you use it the problem may not be the battery but something more serious. A typical battery life depends on how much usage the unit gets and what type of usage it is getting. Texting generally uses little battery power whereas gaming or using third party sites requires a lot of battery so the battery goes down faster.

When you believe it is the battery you have several options available to you. If you like to fiddle with small electronic items and aren’t the sort of person who looses small screws perhaps the do it yourself option would work for you. If so you can go online to an iPhone repair site and find yourself an iPhone battery replacement kit and literally do it yourself.
