Back in the day this was even better:

Original Galaxy S battery was getting weak? Order a new battery from Amazon for 13€. Battery arrives, pop the back of the phone off, pull battery out (just like that, no soldering), push new battery in. Push the back of the phone back on, done.

New battery in and it had more mAh than the original one. Despite overclocking that phone it ran a day longer after the replacement.

This makes no sense. How does a working phone "miss a few vitals parts" necessary to replace battery?

there's a channel on YouTube, by louis rossman. you'll find plenty of examples of bs answers from apple tech support in order to make you spend a great deal of money.

~~furthermore, nowhere it talks about "vital parts". So yeah, it makes no sense, but for other reasons.~~

Read your comment twice, now I got what you mean. took me a bit, but you're definitely right.
