The 4700mAh battery in the S23+ was one of the reasons people chose it over the smaller model. After two or three years of daily charging, that advantage fades. Charge cycles wear every lithium cell, and capacity disappears a little at a time.
An original Samsung battery for the SM-S916B brings the phone back to its proper screen-on time. We fit it, reseal the phone with new adhesive, and test it. Part and fitting are included in the price shown.

Common questions
Can I check the battery health myself before booking?
You can get a reading through the Samsung Members app under Diagnostics, which reports battery status. It is a useful first look, though it will not always flag a cell that fails under load. If the phone shuts down suddenly or the percentage jumps around, bring it in for a proper test.
Why does my S23+ die in the cold or when using the camera?
Those are the moments a worn battery gets caught out. Cold and heavy load both demand more from the cell than standby does, and a tired battery cannot deliver the current, so the phone protects itself and shuts off. A new original battery removes that weak point.
Why does the battery need professional fitting?
The S23+ is sealed with adhesive, the battery itself is glued to the frame, and prying a lithium cell out with the wrong tools can puncture it, which is a fire risk. Our technicians open the phone properly, fit the original battery and reseal the back with new adhesive.
