Does the over heating causes phone's battery to swell up?

[Stardom22]

l have one of my hand devices that is still in a good working condition, but it has a swollen battery on its back. The specialist is asking for $50 to fix that issue together with a new battery. What do you think?

overheating can definitely contribute to battery swelling! But usually it's more about the battery's age, charging habits (like overcharging), or manufacturing issues .

swollen battery is dangerous because it can explode or catch fire at any time in your hand. fifty dollars is very cool for your safety and getting a new battery that will make the device last longer.

Yes overheating, or leaving your phone in a hot environment can greatly damage the battery life of the phone, and cause it to swell overtime.

Yes, heat is really bad for batteries. It can make them swell up or even get dangerous. Keep it cool.
