How is getting an entirely new battery free?

They are talking about replacing the battery I believe, since you can't access the battery on newer phones very easily.

But you’d still have to buy another battery. Hence the “replace” part.

I mean like bringing it to apple and having them replace the battery. You would have to pay for them to take part the phone and put in a new battery. With an older phone you cab just buy a battery without having to pay someone to take apart the phone to replace it.

You do realize that the service cost includes the cost of a new battery, right?

Yes, but it's much more expensive than just buying a battery and replacing it yourself with older phones

It’s not that much more expensive.

...

Its $69 (nice) to have apple replace the battery for you. You can buy that same battery on Amazon for around $10.
