The A03 Core runs light software on a 5000mAh battery, so when it was new it lasted for days. If yours now begs for the charger every few hours, the cells have simply worn down, which happens to every battery with enough charge cycles.
Bring it to our Umhlanga workshop and we will fit an original Samsung battery made for this model. The listed price includes the battery and the fitting.

Common questions
The phone switches off at 30 percent. Is that the battery?
Almost always. Worn cells cannot hold their voltage under load, so the phone reads 30 percent, then the voltage sags and it cuts out. A new original battery restores honest readings and stops the shutdowns. We will confirm with a test before we replace anything.
How long should the original battery in an A03 Core last?
Batteries wear with charge cycles rather than time, so heavy daily charging wears one faster than light use. Most people notice the fade after a couple of years. Once the phone no longer gets through a normal day, replacement is the fix, and the price here covers battery and fitting.
Can I keep using it with a swollen battery until payday?
We would not. A swollen battery keeps expanding and puts pressure on the cover and screen, and damage from that pressure adds to the repair bill. If you must wait, keep the phone cool, avoid overnight charging and do not press on the bulge. Sooner is safer.
