after 1 year, if my iphone6s battery can only last 13hr (normal usage), instead of 1 day is it normal or its time to consider changing battery?
planning to get iphone that will be released next year though so battery change is it worth it?

QUOTE(attw @ Nov 21 2016, 08:06 AM) Then yes, I would say the battery may be faulty already. I'm guessing phone warranty is over? Maybe you can consider some reputable third party replacement in the meantime while waiting to upgrade next year. Ok thanks for the suggestion Yeah warranty ended in September

I enquire with Machines and as per below are their reply The program affects devices within a limited serial number range that were manufactured between September and October 2015. Perhaps you can share your serial number for us to advice you further.
After I reply with my serial number with Q8 in it, they reply: Your device is eligible for the battery replacement program. Please note the following before visit Machines Service Centre.
1) Make sure all data is backed-up (the Service Center do not provide data back-up service, all data will be erased once the unit is surrendered) 2) Disable Find My iPhone (FMiP) feature from the unit. 3) The program will replace only the battery. 4) Estimation whole process is 7-10 working days (excluding weekends and public holiday). 6) No loaner/temporary unit will be provided. 7) Accessories such as screen protector/tampered glass is not covered and consider loss once the unit is surrendered.
when I enquire if this can be done in a day, this is their reply: The process is done by Apple. The process take logistics, parts import and availability into consideration. Feel free to contact Machines Service Centre for further advice regarding this.
