Go Apple to change.
Always remember once you give 3rd party to change then next time you want to go Apple to service they will reject

they say cant change cuz no parts only can repair, but right now they repair unsuccessful, maybe if they open will have the open mark like this will reject?

cuz my phone also warranty finish think 3 or 4 years le so i didnt consider apple repair, now if i bring back apple still have chance for them to see see look look?

You can certainly try, but the cost may be prohibitive

if you use iPhone, always go back to Apple. Apple very petty, if they discovered the phone been touch by a third party they will not repair it. But that is hows they work.

Those sounds nothing major compared to motherboard

So is not about how many parts that are working fine. More about which part is material.

Are you using third party charger during the night? Ugreen or? Usb c charger or standard?

You should always go to Applestore if your iPhone cannot power up.

Over there they will try to charge and power up... if cannot blame it on the battery ... make some excuses like battery acting erratic power drain 50% within 20 mins...

For iPhone X series, they will replace the whole set for you ... Applestore won’t bother to open up the set to replace any parts or battery. But make sure your set don’t look like completely bashed up.
For out of warranty.... just pay for the battery cost ... I think $68/- and you get new replacement.
That’s the beauty for owning an Apple product.

You mean even if it’s a motherboard issue, they will replace you a new phone for $68? Right now the battery replacement cost on Apple website is $99 for iPhone X, not sure where the $68 came from. Also, if they check and realise that it’s a motherboard issue, I don’t think they will give you a new replacement for just $99 lol

I think $68 was old price.

I think poster is assuming they wouldn’t verify whether it is battery issue or not.
