How to replace your iPhone 5 battery

15 minutes - 1 hour

Moderate

My Problem

The original iPhone battery would not hold a charge longer than 1 hour.

My Fix

The repair kit was shipped the same day of purchase and arrived several days later. The kit came with all the necessary tools and parts and the tutorial video was incredibly simple to follow. The entire repair took me about 15 minutes.

My Advice

The video starts by suggesting to use a magnetic pad to keep all of the screws in one place. I did not heed this advice and made the ultimate amateur mistake of dropping one of the microscopic screws on the floor. Thankfully, after some hard searching, I was able to recover the screw. But if I were to do this a second time I was use a magnet of some kind to keep everything in place.
