IF you opt to have the battery replaced (or any other part of your iPhone), do NOT use anything but Genuine Apple Parts. You'll regret it later. Been there, done that. (& your phone will know and keep reminding you.)
I agree. 85% is still a healthy battery.

With 85% and not wanting to buy a new phone, I suggest that you get a small external battery to charge the phone when needed. They are not costly and relatively small. The link below is an example.

Also, I believe Apple will generally not replace a battery until 80% or less capacity.

And I , too, would only replace a iPhone battery with a genuine Apple battery from Apple.
