Apple Watch Series 6 battery replacement and cost

I have an Apple Watch. It’s a sixth series, and I want to get a new battery for it. Is that possible? If so, how much is it

Yes, Apple can replace the battery on a Series 6. It costs 99 dollars if you are out of warranty, plus tax and shipping. If you still have active AppleCare+, it is free. Your battery health needs to be under 80 percent to qualify, which you can check on your watch by going to Settings, then Battery, then Battery Health. Instead of taking the watch apart, Apple gives you a replacement watch of the exact same model. You can set this up through the Apple Support app or their website. Just make sure to unpair your watch from your iPhone before sending it in so it backs up your data and turns off Activation Lock.
