If you read the article you would have learned that the Apple store staff was trying to convince her into buying a new iPhone instead. They told her they would need to swap the iPhone‘s mainboard.

I understand that - they are doing a script - no health check problems on other components -> go to mainboard. I don't fault them for that.

That said, I've never had a problem just saying things like sounds great, I'd love to pay for and try replacing battery first. Done.

Next time I go in I might try this as an experiment actually. Just ask, could I get a battery replacement
