The battery in an iPhone is a consumable part — it loses a bit of capacity with every charge cycle. After two to three years of heavy use the effect becomes noticeable: the phone no longer lasts a full day, shuts down at several dozen percent, or clearly slows down. The good news is that battery replacement is one of the fastest and cheapest iPhone repairs — and it can restore your phone's full performance for years to come.
In this guide you'll find the current iPhone battery replacement price list for all models, a list of symptoms of a worn battery, and details of how the service works at the MacLife iPhone service.
iPhone battery replacement at MacLife costs from 150 zł (iPhone SE/6s/7/8), from 279 zł (X–11), from 359 zł (12/13) and from 349 zł (14/15). The service usually takes 30–60 minutes — you can wait on site. We install premium batteries with CE and FCC certificates (not the cheapest replacements) and provide a 12-month warranty. It's worth replacing the battery when its health drops below 80% or the "Service" message appears. Your data stays intact.
How to tell your iPhone battery needs replacing
A worn battery shows characteristic symptoms. If you recognise at least a few of the following, it's time for a replacement:
- the phone holds a charge for only a few hours with normal use,
- it shuts down at 20–30% charge even though the battery "isn't empty",
- it overheats while charging or in use,
- charging takes a very long time,
- the phone slows down and apps freeze (iOS deliberately limits performance when the battery is weak).
The most reliable indicator is in Settings → Battery → Battery Health. Apple recommends replacement when maximum capacity drops below 80%. If you see the "Service" message instead of a percentage value — replacement is already necessary.

Which batteries we use
The market is full of the cheapest replacements of unknown origin — they can lose capacity quickly and, in extreme cases, swell and damage the phone. At MacLife we install only high-quality (premium) batteries with CE and FCC certificates, whose parameters match the original.
Why does it matter? A cheap battery can return to the same symptoms after a few months and also falsify the battery health reading in iOS. A premium certified battery means predictable lifespan and safety — that's why we cover it with a 12-month warranty.
Want peace of mind for longer? Check out the extended MacLife warranty — you can extend protection of the replaced battery by another 12 months.
