Yes I was noticing it. I was really noticeable compared to my wife’s iPhone that’s newer but of the same model. The time it takes for search to return was the biggest thing that was bugging me.

A $50 battery replacement for 2.5 years of service is totally reasonable.

Small note, it’s not $50. That’s the price REDUCTION. So now it’s only $30.

I made the same mistake, which someone else pointed out to me.

There are a lot of companies that make their money fixing iPhone batteries for $30. If this isn’t a limited time offer they’re in deep trouble.
