My 6 year phone over heats, especially now since we are in the mid of summer.

Idle battery drain over night is 70%.

I doubt you would get a replacement battery now. But, you could try if you do not want to upgrade to a new one

I tried replacing the battery, but the "new" battery was just as bad.

The problem is that these batteries were just stored somewhere for years, probably in not ideal conditions.

What phone is this? Are the batteries from the official service center or 3rd party repair service/site?

[–] NoiseColor@startrek.website 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Samsung.

I don't know which battery it is since it was 3rd party, but as much as I have read people have the same experience either way.

(supposedly it's an original battery)

This is my replacement battery since ... well, a year or so ago. It's just really bad. I'm looking if it can last till end of the year, I am eyeing at a second hand Xiaomi 13. When 15 lands, see if can get to my ideal price (<1500RMB).
