If u change it at Apple. The battery can last for 5 years or more. This is what it means by "pay cheap and buy twice". |

Haha. so technically u do not have any trouble deciding whether to buy AppleCare or not. π The longest iPhones I kept were my iPhone 4, 5 and 6 Plus - all were running good even after the warranty expired and the battery life was still awesome. Now I sell my phones before the warranty expire so I get less hassle during the transaction |

How did u get the setting to show battery health? I thought only battery replacement at authorized service centre can do that |

Anyone had issues with their cellular reception? Mine will disconnect from 4G and will end up no service then come back on with 3G. I switched my SIM to my old 5s and my SIM works fine, and I put in my father's SIM from another telco and the same problem occurs.

And from your description, it like the issue is with the phone. I would suggest you do a reset of your phone nad see whether it clears the issue. Sometimes a simple switch off and on again can clear issues. |
