Highlights
  • iPhone 16 Pro battery replacement charge is around Rs 11,800.
  • The revised charges don’t apply to the vanilla iPhone 16 series.
  • Check out the estimated battery repair charges of all iPhones here.

Two years after it raised the cost of replacing or repairing the iPhone 14 battery, Apple has increased the post-warranty repair and replacement charges of the iPhone 16 Pro series’ battery. The change applies to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, and not the base iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. Here’s how much it would cost to swap the iPhone 16 Pro’s battery if it is out of AppleCare warranty. 

AppleInsider notes Apple has bumped up the battery service charge of the iPhone 16 Pro series to USD 119 (about Rs 9,984.10) if your device is out of (AppleCare) warranty. Meanwhile, the cost of doing the same for the iPhone 15 Pro lineup is USD 99 (around Rs 8,306.10). So, a USD 20 hike.

We tried the ‘get estimate‘ option on the Apple India support page which shows the battery replacement cost will be around Rs 11,800 (for iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max). Meanwhile, for the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, and previous iPhones like the iPhone 15 series and iPhone 14 series, the cost will be around Rs 9,800.  

As we mentioned in the beginning, this cost was last revised in September 2022 for the Apple iPhone 14 series. So, for the iPhone 13 series, the cost is still Rs 8,800.

Well, new iPhone 16 Pro buyers don’t have to worry about the cost for two years, if they opt for AppleCare+. If you have AppleCare+ and your iPhone’s battery health is less than 80 percent (because of a defect), you can get your battery replaced for free. However, if the battery wears down naturally, then it isn’t covered under the Apple warranty.

In case your iPhone battery health diminishes (even if it is above 80 percent), you can still get it serviced from Apple at the below-mentioned prices.
