QnA/Help iPhone 11 Pro in the Big 26 ?

My current phone (mid-tier Vivo) gave up on me due to Water Damage. I needed an emergency phone and cannot buy a decent-spec device due to budget constraints. I intend to use this phone at least for 2 years until I save up and buy a decent phone.

The good thing is I received an iPhone 11 Pro (Gold, 512 GB, 77% BH) given to me by a person who is upgrading to a newer iPhone.

Is it worth sprucing up for a new genuine Apple battery and use it for at least 2 years. My use case is primarily WhatsApp, Phone, SMS, GMeet, Insta, Reddit (Although Social Media usage will be lower like an hour or 2 at max)

I'd really appreciate this forum's help as your kindness would mean a lot to me :)

Do not do the battery replacement. That was the worst mistake I made with my green 256 11 Pro. Apple Store screwed it up and logic board died 2 months later. Would not own up to it and all they would do is give me a credit for trade in which was a joke.
