Apple has determined that a very small percentage of iPhone 5 devices may suddenly experience shorter battery life or need to be charged more frequently. The affected iPhone 5 devices were sold between September 2012 and January 2013 and fall within a limited serial number range.

If your iPhone 5 is experiencing these symptoms and meets the eligibility requirements noted below, Apple will replace your iPhone 5 battery, free of charge.

Starts on August 29

I'm eligible and my battery really is unpredictable as soon as it hits the ~30% mark, but it can't hurt to try to get a new battery even if you aren't experiencing the symptoms.
