Thanks all for the responses. Yeah, I did read some of the articles about 80 percent not being so good. However, since my sister doesn't drive and we aren't near an Apple store, anyway, I figure by the time I paid for a cab to go to the post office, paid shipping both ways, and paid for the replacement, I may as well try to see if I can find her a used SE somewhere with a better battery. I've been trying for about six weeks now to get my brother to go to AT&T to get the SIM exchanged, but he just doesn't get in any hurry. But maybe I'll see if they still have any refurbish SE phones at AT&T, as it can't hurt to ask. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sieghard Weitzel <siegh...@live.ca> To: "viphone@googlegroups.com" <viphone@googlegroups.com> Date: Monday, September 30, 2019 2:01 am Subject: RE: iPhone SE battery > > > And 81% is not actually so good.
