Chosen Solution
I have an iPhone 5s that was water damaged. I have cleaned it up and don’t see any residue or corrosion. However, the phone refuses to charge, and I am thinking it may be the battery that needs to be replaced. However, I can’t find the iPhone 5s battery for sale in any reputed places (e.g., at iFixit). Question: can I use the iPhone 5 battery in iPhone 5s? Are the connectors the same? I know the capacity of the 5 battery is about 8% less than 5s battery, but that should not be a huge issue.
No，the connectors are different
If ebay pics are the same it must be true… NOT
Yes, of course you can take the connector off the old battery and re-solder it onto a new one. TIP: Before starting the process, make sure you are wearing goggles, a Fireman’s fireproof suit and fireproof gloves, (you’ll need the special ones with fine, fireproof material fingers, so you can still manipulate the small connector) - Oh, and check to make sure your house insurance is up to date, and not invalidated by you doing something totally and utterly stupid! Have fun and ask your Mum to put a post on this messageboard when she gets back from the funeral, to let us all know how it went!
iPhone 5 battery: 1440 mAh, 3.8V, 5.45 Watt Hours. iPhone 5s battery: 1558 mAh, 3.8V, 5.92 Watt Hours.
