Highlights

Apple has also hiked the battery service prices globally
Standard iPhone 16 models can still be serviced at previous prices

iPhone 16 series was launched by Apple on September 9 and it will be available on store shelves starting September 20. With its latest flagship smartphone lineup, the Cupertino-based tech giant has hiked the battery replacement cost of the top-end iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max globally and in India. While users who have an Apple Care+ subscription will get a battery replacement for free, those without will now need to shell out more if their battery requires a service.

According to Apple India's iPhone Repair & Service page, battery replacement for the iPhone 16 Pro now costs Rs. 11,800. Notably, the iPhone 15 Pro battery replacement costs Rs. 9,800, translating into a hike of Rs. 2,000. The same battery replacement cost applies to the iPhone 16 Pro Max too. This applies to out-of-warranty iPhone models.

However, that is not the case for the standard iPhone 16 models. Servicing the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus batteries still costs Rs. 9,800 – the same cost as the standard iPhone 15 models.
