Where to buy a good quality iPhone 5S battery?

    Hi,

    I want to replace an iPhone 5S battery that is at the end of its life. Can anyone recommend a site where I can buy a good quality battery? Ideally if people had experience of having used the site that'd be great. There are so many places selling them it's hard to know.

    I know people will say that anything other than an official Apple battery is dodgy, but I'm just looking for a cost-effective solution to fit myself. Cathal from on here recommended www.parts4ipods.com but that appears to have been closed.

    Cheers.

    They are all the same tbh. You can't get official Apple batteries. Anything you see online is either a knockoff or second-hand. Even the sellers probably don't know the source of these batteries. Best bet is to go for the cheapest you can find and be prepared to buy another or wait on a replacement should it prove faulty or of poor quality.

    Think that applies to the 5 series only, not 5s.
