This won’t do much for the environment.

Even today, phone batteries get replaced until the phone is no longer able to run today’s software.

I recently swapped a broken display + the battery of a smartphone. It's definitely possible with recent devices (although apple might be different).

You need some skill and patience to cut it open etc. without damage, so most people should probably go to a repair shop.
