Yes. There's always a chance.


It's imperative you always maintain a current backup of your device.


While a battery replacement may not in and of itself cause data loss, if anything goes wrong, it may wipe the iPhone or force the Apple technicians to restore it.


A backup should always be performed as a regular activity. iCloud backups can be done automatically if they are turned on and the iPhone is connected to power and wifi.

there could be a possibility that you could lose your data.

you can backup to icloud at the apple store if you don't have wifi.
