The battery is user replaceable. If a minimum wage earner in the mall can do it with a few basic tools it isn’t that difficult.

If replacing the battery voids the warranty, that doesn't count as 'user replaceable' in my book.

If the phone is under warranty, why wouldn't you take it to Apple and let them replace it for free?

If the phone is in warranty then they’ll take care of it for you. If it’s out of warranty then it doesn’t matter.

How do you know the wage for battery replacement?
