Well I got the battery installed 15-days ago (1/15/20) and it is working as expected. The installation was a major pain. You need high powered lenses to see and control the tiny little screws. If I have any problems with the battery I'll be sure and update, but so far it's working great! One thing that could be improved is the screw drivers need to be magnetized right at the very tip. They are magnetized, but not at the very tip, and it's very hard to hold those screws in place when putting them back in. I lost three of them! I had to get high powered lenses to find them all. Also the suction cup was absolutely worthless. (If the suction cup would have worked I would have given 5-stars.) I went to the dollar tree and got a set of suction cups for a $1, but they didn't work either. You need a really powerful suction cup that's tiny. (I don't think they make them with enough suction to pry the screen off.) In the end I had to pry the screen off using the flat blade screw drive, and I think I just got lucky with my placement of the tool because I was able to pry off the screen eventually without damaging the glass. (Be patient when doing this install. Go slow and try different things. If your screen is cracked place a piece of packing tape over it so it doesn't get worse. Get 4-5 powered lenses at least, and a magnifying glass, so If you lose screws you can find them again.)Read full review

I installed it all correctly. I’ve been doing this stuff with iPhones for years and I did everything right and this battery is NO DIFFERENT than my old one. The life span on it is terrible. I have to KEEP it on charge or it’ll go dead within an hour being at 100%. And when it is charging I can’t be on my phone at all or it still goes dead. So I’m very unhappy with what I bought. Also if you’re going to seek tools for this specific phone, you’ll need to include the thin prying tool as well. I would like to have the option of being sent a free new battery that actually lasts like it’s supposed to. Thanks.

I’d say the replacement process was pretty straight forward and the tools provided were sufficient and worked well enough for me. I didn’t struggle much at all. There are plenty of videos doing a step by step replacement. Find a good one and follow along. Now on to the battery. The battery is okay, and the reason I gave it 4 stars. It has a lower capacity than advertised by a good margin. Mine in particular is about 220 mAh less than the advertised 1810 mAh. I kinda expected that when purchasing so just keep that in mind. I have been using this replacement battery for nearly 7 months now with no issues. I tested the battery capacity when new and over the course of the 7 months and it’s not bad. I’d recommend it, if your phone doesn’t hold a charge anymore. Also, be careful when using the adhesive strips. Make sure you have the battery plugged in and situated how you want before utilizing them. Just a tip.Read full review

You have to be very patient. These are very tiny screws. Highly recommend using hair dryer or other heat source. Otherwise I think it would be nearly impossible to get old battery out. Also, place tape on table as it is MANDATORY that you keep the screws in order! But, I did it. I only lost one screw, didn't seem to matter. Works great. Use stand-held magnifying glass if possible. Watch at LEAST 6-8 youtube videos on replacement.

Bought this to for a friend's iPhone 6s, which iOS 12.4.1 reported was down to 75%. Installation was easy. Be sure to watch a couple of videos on how to remove the old battery. One of the release strips tore, but I was able to remove the other, then pry up on the battery just enough to be able to grab the stub with a needle nose pliers. When you're pulling the release strip, just go easy and slow.
