Lumia 950 battery replacement

I have an unlocked Microsoft phone that I love, but the battery has been running down and out before I leave work each day, even if I don't use the phone. I know it is time to replace the battery. Question can I go to any Microsoft store and purchase a battery for my phone and will they install it for me? The instructions for the phone indicate I should not do this myself. There is a store in my area, it is just not close.

Thanks!

Microsoft stores have never sold batteries for these Lumias. Your only chance is to find one somewhere online and hope that it is genuine and really new/unused. Replacing the battery yourself is the least of your problems, it is dead easy and carries no risks.

The Lumia 950 has a Removable Li-Ion 3000 mAh battery which is pretty easy to replace.

This video shows you how easy it is to do (there is an ad first so click on skip ad):

There are several places online to find a replacement. As an example here is one on eBay:

Just bear in mind that there is no such thing as "Manufacturer refurbished" for batteries.
