Apple had recently announced that it had plans to increase the price for battery replacements for a number of its mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPad, and MacBooks. And now, it appears that this change has finally been rolled out.

The Cupertino based giant had first announced the battery replacement cost rise back in February. These changes would’ve affected its popular smartphone, tablets, and notebook lineup. Now, the brand is apparently rolling out the new price update across the globe. If this news is true, it marks the second time the iPhone maker has hiked the battery replacement prices since September of last year.

According to a new report, there are multiple tiers to the battery replacement pricing that will now go live starting this month. This change will not only be for the US market, but will also include the global markets. As of right now, the battery replacement for the iPhone 14 series will cost around 99 US Dollars across the lineup. On the other hand, the iPhone 5 to iPhone 8 will have battery change cost around 69 US Dollars, which is up from 49 US Dollars.

Similarly, the iPhone X to iPhone 13 series will see a price hike from 69 US Dollars for battery replacements to 89 US Dollars. Meanwhile, the price hike for replacing the battery on the MacBook will range from 30 US Dollars for the Air model (from 129 US Dollars to 159 US Dollars) to 50 US Dollars (from 199 US Dollars to 249 US Dollars) on the Pro and base models. Lastly, the iPads are also seeing a rise replacements costs, but it does not affect every model. The price hike can range from 20 US Dollars on older Pro, mini, and Air variants, while the base iPad has seen a sizeable jump from 99 US Dollars to 199 US Dollars.
