BestBuy is an authorized Apple repair facility and is a good place to go for a replacement. You will wind up with a new Apple battery and you will not be without your phone for very long. Make an appointment. While 80% battery health is a more common figure used for when to replace your battery, doing it now is not a bad idea if you are going to be traveling. A new battery will probably be good for at least another 3 years, at which point your iPhone will be 7 years old and no longer supported by Apple. At that point, you may want to look into getting a new phone (although you can keep an unsupported phone if you choose).

Any feedback from anyone here re places that install new batteries in iPhones? My 12 is fine and do not want to upgrade to new phone simply due to batt….
