Where to get the best price

Wife has an ipad 7th Gen with a bad battery. We need to get another one. She only uses it for facebook,email and looking for clothes to buy.

This is one of the occasions when cheapest is not necessarily, the best buy.

If the iPad does everything that she needs, it may be a better option to send the iPad into Apple to have the battery replaced.

Could you be more specific

 

[420benz]

What will that cost?

 

[MacsBug]

In the US, a battery replacement from Apple is only $99

Ok thanks

Is this a diy?

No, I wouldn't recommend trying to replace a battery on your own. You should contact a local Apple Store if you have one to get the battery replaced.

You can get the battery replaced through Apple or an authorized service provider. If you're looking for a cheaper option, some third-party repair shops do battery replacements too, but make sure it's a trusted place. If the iPad is pretty old and the battery is a big problem, it might be worth considering upgrading to a newer model.
