It's very fiddly and you need to buy a quality set of screwdrivers.
Yea it's a bit fiddly, but it isn't rocket science.
I'm usually not good at stuff like this but managed to do it first try.Also they give you all the tools you need with the battery, the whole package is just 20 bucks.
Sure if I had warranty and could live without the phone for a while I'd bring it to apple, but otherwise / with Covid circumstances etc. I'd just do it myself..

Ymmv but the tools that came with my one were awful and almost fucked the phone.
@Greenbank - sounds like you're in a good position to do it. Good luck!

Have you taken a phone apart before?
It's very fiddly and you need to buy a quality set of screwdrivers.
Also if the phone is old and not in good general condition you can get stuck quickly.
Not to say don't give it a crack, but just know it's not going to cost a tenner and if others are getting new phones for £50, it seems hard to justify the £20-30 saving unless you really need that money.
