Battery Issues, Problem by Problem
From phones that barely last the morning to batteries that have started to swell, our technicians find out what is really going on before recommending a replacement.
Battery Drains Fast
If your phone needs charging several times a day, the battery has likely lost capacity. We check battery health to confirm before replacing it.
Unexpected Shutdowns
Phones that switch off at 20% or 30%, or when the camera opens, often have a worn battery that can no longer deliver steady power.
Swollen or Bulging Battery
A lifting screen or a back panel that no longer sits flat can point to a swollen battery. Stop charging it and bring it in so we can replace it safely.
Service or Health Warnings
An iPhone “Service” message or low maximum capacity reading is a clear sign the battery is due for replacement.
Phone Gets Hot
A phone that runs hot while charging or during light use may have a failing battery. We test it before recommending a repair.
Slow or Stuck Charging
Charging that stalls or takes much longer than it used to can come from the battery, port or charger. We find the cause before replacing parts.
Dead Phone Won’t Turn On
A phone that will not power on even when plugged in may need a new battery. We assess it to rule out other power faults first.
Battery Health Check
Not sure whether it is the battery, charger or port? Bring the phone in and we will check battery health before recommending anything.
