You don’t always need to buy a new device
If your mobile phone runs out of power quickly, switches off even though it shows sufficient charge, or gets hot whilst performing simple tasks, the battery may be worn out. In many cases, replacing the battery restores the device’s battery life and stability.
What to check
- Battery health in the iPhone or Android settings, where available.
- Apps consuming power in the background.
- Poor-quality chargers or cables.
- Abnormal overheating whilst charging.
Diagnosis before repair
A diagnosis prevents parts from being replaced unnecessarily. It also helps to identify whether there is abnormal power consumption caused by software, moisture, the circuit board or the charging connector.
