My battery is around 520 charge cycles and I can barely get 5-5hrs of SOT out of it now. Has anyone replaced the battery with that “genuine” 69$ dollar battery at Apple? Did the battery life substantially improved? In general, how many hrs are you getting with your 12PM? Thanks

What's your battery health? Seems a bit early for an iPhone 12 battery replacement

86%. I’m going off of charge cycle, which is over 500 now

As long as it's over 80% it's fine. Got an 11 pro max at home with 81% and it holds up pretty good, below 80% it gets throttled so will need a replacement then

Yeah, it works fine. Just doesn’t last as long on a single charge. Just wonder how much more screen time I’d be able to get if replaced with a fresh battery

It'll definitely be better but can't tell how much. Using it daily for 2+years i haven't really noticed any degradation tbh. If you plan on keeping the phone for another while you will have to replace it eventually sometime this year so why not do it now.
