Does Apple fix their very old electronics like an iPod touch 1G?

Its battery doesn't last long these days, and I would like to replace it. Will Apple be able to replace it like they do with iPhone 4S for $80? If so, then is it the same price?


Thank you in advance. 🙂

iPod touch, iOS 3.1.3, Windows XP Pro. SP3 & 512 MB of RAM

Apple will give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one.

Well, it still works except its low battery life. I don't have room on iPhone 4S' 16 GB so I just use Touch for media only.

A third-party place like the following will replace your battery for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. A new battery costs about $15. Worth it if you are capable of doing the replacement

Ah thanks. That's a bummer that we can't keep our devices. 😟
