Have you replaced your iPhone battery, and was it worth it? (lemmy.world)

I’ve had an iPhone 12 mini since launch and the battery life has become pretty abysmal. However, I’m reluctant to replace it with a newer, bigger model. My battery health is sitting at 86%, which really doesn’t sound that bad, but I feel like the actual battery life is way worse than when I bought it. Has anyone replaced their battery around this percentage, and did it give a noticeable boost?

My lighting port wore out which apple will not repair. Took it to a 3rd party place to repair and they messed up the antennas in the phone breaking NFC and wrecking the reception on it. Went direct to an iPhone 14. I have had iPhones since the 3G was released the years between replacement has been getting longer as time passes.
