Batteries don’t last forever — they only have so many charge cycles. As you use your battery, it will degrade over time and you’ll get less and less battery life from it. Eventually, you’ll want to replace a device’s battery — or get a new device with a new battery.

Even if you can’t access the battery yourself, you can often pay to have it replaced. For example, Apple stores will replace an iPhone or iPad’s battery for a fee.

A battery doesn’t just go from “good” to “bad.” Instead, as you use it, it will slowly degrade. The battery’s capacity will decrease and it’ll be able to store less and less power. This is a gradual process, and you won’t necessarily notice until you realize you used to get a few more hours of battery power from your device.

There are several features on your device that will let you know the percentage of your battery, if you got a laptop or device that use to hold a big amount of that power but now it shuts down when you unplug the power source (keeping the battery in) then its time to have that battery replaced. Most users will have there laptops plugin into the wall with the battery attached thinking the battery will not get used up, but that’s far from the truth. Even if you got the laptop powering from the outlet, the battery is still being drained out.  Its best to take the battery out if you intend to keep that laptop in one spot all the time.

How to replace your battery

If you have a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or another device with a removable battery, this is easy. You’ll just need to purchase a replacement battery designed specifically for your device, power down your device, and then replace the current battery with the new one. This will give your device a fresh battery with maximum capacity, increasing its battery life.

More and more smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices are made without batteries you can access yourself. In some cases, these are designed so the manufacturer can replace the battery for you. For example, you can take an old iPhone, iPad, or MacBook to an Apple Store and pay a fee to have Apple employees open your device and replace the battery for you. Check if your manufacturer offers this service. We have to warn you that not all batteries are the same and some sellers online will try to sell you used batteries which is a waste of your time and money.
