My current primary phone now is the iphone 13 mini. I have an old iphone SE that I used for many years before this and that was my primary iphone. I still like it as the size is very good. But battery is not good and people say do not upgrade IOS from IOS 14 to IOS 15 which is what everyone seem to say. Do most people agree with this? I had that IOS 15 software update showing for over a year or so and never upgraded it to that.
I bought this old IPhone SE brand new over 5 years ago. I remember the phone was so fast. I used to use an iphone 4s. I think it was after a year or so, the battery was getting a little bad. Then I think close to 2 years was when the battery got much worst. I remember I went to apple store when they had that promotion where they replace your battery for like 29 dollars or so? I'm sure many of you remember that?
The battery was very good for another year or so. I think when it was close to 1.5 years, is when the battery is bad. I don't believe I had the battery replaced in over 3 years. Now I'm using it as a backup phone. Is it worth it for me to get a battery replacement for it or not? Also I had considered maybe resetting it and starting it as brand new. Would you recommend that? Also if I were to reset it and wipe it without replacing the battery, would you say it would be good? At the moment it lags quite a bit but still usable. I heard once you upgrade it to IOS 15, you won't like it. If getting a new battery, does apple store do it? If so how much? Or it's not worth it? Again its a backup phone. What about buying the battery on ebay and do it yourself? However this is very hard for someone who isn't tech savy right? I would not want to open the iphone myself etc.
