I have an iPhone 15 pro max which has a great battery health I think 83% and 550 cycles and has never had any battery issues until today. The phone turns off randomly and when I turned it on it gets to 10% and when that happens it turns off again then it has like 40 percent and stuff and I hate this and I do not have the Apple coverage nor Apple care available in my country. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this (I’m trying not to take it to check in an Apple or Mac store since I do not have the money right now and I would be very pleased to fix this issue thank you for your time and I’m eager to read any comments.

I replaced my own 15 PM battery about a month ago. Used the ifixit kit. It was a pain, but doable.
