Is a Battery Replacement on a Phone Worth It?
Replacing the battery is one of the best things you can do to help prolong your cell phone's life. On average, cell phone batteries only last between two and three years. After that, they can cause a number of problems. A phone with an aging battery may have a hard time holding onto a charge, forcing you to charge it more often. Since your phone's processor can't draw as much power from an older battery, it can also cause your phone to crash or slow down your device's performance.
