Default Battery for iPhone

Other than Orlando, does anyone know the closest place to have a new battery put in an iPhone?

I had a iPhone battery replaced a couple of months ago at a store on 441; across from Sam’s Club. It was by Starbucks and might have been called "Batteries and Bulbs" Very satisfied with the service and was less expensive than "You Break-I fix” where I had a battery replaced about a year ago.

You're right, I didn't notice they opened a store in Lady Lake. Same company as the one in Ocala. Looks like they took the old Radio Shack location.

I called batteries + Bulbs for a replacement battery for my IPad Air. They quoted $99 vs $124 from UbreakIFix. That’s a significant price difference!

ubreakifix uses Apple batteries. The other place uses third party batteries.

Who knows which is better.

Apple store in Altamonte Springs charges $79 to replace an iPhone battery. Bit of a drive and then wait can be up to two hours.

Interesting. Another reason to keep my old Samsung S4. OEM Samsung battery $9.00 Amazon prime. Wish it took better pictures.
Have you tried a portable charger? Only $10 to $20.

If you need help at an Apple Store, make sure you make an appointment at the Genius Bar. No charge and they can sometimes resolve the problem right there. You can do it on line and it's good that you get helped quickly when they are very busy. Walk-ins usually have a long wait.
