Phone Battery Replacement in Manchester
If your phone no longer lasts the day, shuts down at 30 percent or gets hot on charge, the battery is worn. We fit a new cell from £29, collect from your door, and return it the same day in most cases.
Signs You Have This Problem
Lithium batteries wear out with every charge cycle. These are the signs it has reached the end.
Dead by early afternoon
A battery holding around 80 percent of its original capacity gives you noticeably less than a full day, even with light use.
Sudden shutdowns above 20 percent
A worn cell cannot deliver peak current, so the phone cuts out even though the meter says there is charge left.
Hot to hold while charging
Extra heat on charge is a sign of increased internal resistance and is worth acting on rather than ignoring.
A creaking screen or lifting back
A swollen battery pushes the display away from the frame. Stop using the phone and contact us, because a swollen cell is a genuine fire risk.
What Causes It
Every lithium-ion battery is consumable. A typical phone battery is rated for roughly 500 full charge cycles before it drops to around 80 percent of its original capacity, which most people reach somewhere between the second and third year. Heat is the other big factor, so leaving a phone on a car dashboard in summer, gaming while it charges, or keeping it plugged in at 100 percent all age the cell faster. On iPhone you can see the damage yourself under Settings, Battery, Battery Health.
How We Fix It
Batteries start from £29 fitted, with the exact price for your model confirmed before collection.
We fit a new cell with the correct capacity for your handset, not a generic replacement, then reseal the phone with fresh adhesive. The old cell is disposed of through a licensed recycler. On most models the bench work takes well under an hour, so battery jobs are usually collected and returned the same day. Model-specific prices are on our iPhone and Samsung pages.
