Buy an iPhone(4S or 5S) battery, (Yeah, that simple).

You can't unless you pull one out of another iPhone.

Like a good number of humans on this planet,
I am the owner of an iPhone, two actually: an iPhone 4S I lend to my wife and an iPhone 5S.
I own them both, I bought them, it's not leasing from a service provider.

Since both have a Cycle count above 400 I want to change the battery.

So Where can I buy a genuine OEM battery made by apple for these phones ?
(I now realize I should have ask the question here before getting a used one wrapped in a golden sticker, and a fake one on E-bay, but hey they where no such battery for sale In my local Apple Store °_°)

(probably worth mentioning I'm not interested by any services, only by a replacing batery, like the one I used to purchase right here for my MacBooks)

regards,

Cannot happen. Apple does not sell parts. The only way to get a genuine Apple battery is to take the devices to Apple to have the battery replaced by them.

I'm kinda wondering how the OP bought one for a Macbook. Apple doesn't sell those either.

And while on the subject, you can't buy one for a recent model Macbook Pro, neither.

I guess he's referring to The Old Days when Apple portables had removable batteries.

Hey! Not so old, my late 2008 MacBook Pro with user replaceable battery is still going strong! Well, okay, the current battery itself (its third) is not going so strong these days, but the laptop is.
