iphone 7 turns off by itself

update 15.8.3. Recently it started to discharge quickly, sometimes it just turns off, although the charge percentage is high. I don’t remember exactly when this happened, or if I dropped the phone before. in June the battery was replaced with a new one, everything is fine with it, capacity 100%. memory 70GB out of 128GB. Using a non-original charger.

The battery is OK, but the motherboard likely is not. At this point, there is nothing more that you can do yourself.


If it is the motherboard....as I suspect....that is an expensive repair....quite a bit more than the phone is worth. The money would probably be better spent on a new phone, since it will not be long before apps require at least iOS 16 to run.

The battery would only be at 100% if it was replaced in the last month or so. Is that the case?


If not, the 100% reading is not accurate.


If the battery was in fact replaced very recently, then you have a hardware problem.....likely the motherboard......with the phone that will require service at the Apple Store.....make an appointment.....or take the phone to an authorized Apple service shop.
