Replace Your iPhone Battery for 75% Less!

Replace Your iPhone Battery for 75% Less!

One of the major complaints some people have about the Apple iPhone is that the battery is not user serviceable. The process costs $79 plus shipping, not to mention being without your iPhone for several days. Unless, of course, you want to pay an additional $29 for a loaner.

Leave it to Asia to rectify this situation. For $20, plus shipping from Hong Kong, you can get a replacement iPhone battery shipped to you. In addition to the battery, you are given the necessary instructions and tools to pull off this feat that Apple seems to think mere mortals should not do.

The stories I've read suggest the act of taking off the back cover of the iPhone is not for the faint of heart. I'd rather pay Apple to do it right than to try and save a few bucks doing it myself. That and who knows how well the battery might work.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
