My battery just started this last night on my iPhone 7 Plus. It was reading 65% charged and I picked it up and took a picture and it suddenly powered off. I turned back on while plugged in and it came back on reading 65% and then suddenly dropped to 10%. This keeps happening over and over. When I plug it in it starts charging up pretty fast, faster than normal. 1st time having this issue. Is it time for an upgrade or is this fixable?
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14
Hello!

If the maximum capacity is below 80% you have three options:

One more question? I checked into battery replacement and instructions said if there are any cracks in screen that will need to be fixed too before battery replacement. T or F? I know that’s pretty pricey. I’m on the Next plan and up for an upgrade, thinking possibly that route. What am I looking at on a fix now? $49 battery + cracked screen?
Well, knowing that the screen replacement for an iPhone 7+ is (in US Apple Stores, tax excluded, work included) $169, and knowing that iPhone 7+ was released in 2016 (almost 5 years ago), I would think about a new device.
But it's only my opinion and... it depends on your needs and/or on your wallet :)

How's your Battery maximum capacity percentage, going to Settings>Battery>Battery Health?
It might be time to replace it (in US Apple Store $49).

It said significantly degraded I’m charged at 97% and says 57 capacity
It's time to make an appointment and have it replaced, and be careful: create a full backup of your device ASAP, before having it serviced!

Thanks.
