Here in China you can replace a new battery for about 16USD. I've done that 3 times, each of which lasts about 1 year.

1 year? Can you pay more than 16USD to get an OEM quality battery?

I'm replacing my own and my close circle old iPhone's batteries with Nohon brand batteries from China. They work as well and as long as new original ones. Advertised capacity is even higher than original, but I haven't measured it to confirm.
