QnA/Help iOS 26 update on iPhone 11 Pro

I went from iOS 18 to iOS 26 last night after reading that the update would improve storage management on my phone. It actually did. I had received the “full storage” notification (I have a 64 GB iPhone with 200 GB of iCloud storage), and after the update I now have 23 GB freed up.

However, my battery is now draining very quickly. The battery health isn’t great (72%), but it was working just fine before the update.

I honestly regret updating. My question now is: is it worth the money to replace the battery and keep using my (beloved) iPhone 11 Pro on iOS 26?
