Apple raises battery replacement fees for iPhone 16 Pro models

Apple has increased the battery replacement cost for its iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models, now charging $119—$20 more than before.

However, the standard iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models remain unaffected by the fee hike. According to MacRumors, pricing for battery replacements on older iPhones and other devices hasn't changed yet, but further increases may follow, as seen in previous years.

Defective batteries remain covered under Apple’s one-year warranty or AppleCare Plus if capacity falls below 80%. For those seeking alternatives, third-party or DIY repairs might offer a cheaper solution.
