Apple’s battery replacement service is about $50 including shipping. Took a little less than a week for me.

Interesting, $50 isn't too bad. What did you do while your phone was gone for repairs? Did they give you a loaner?

They will give you a loaner but I think the vast majority of Americans live close enough to an Apple Store where they'll swap the battery in 30-60 minutes. I pop in, drop the phone off, go fuck off for a beer or two, come back to a fresh new battery. Super straightforward.
