I've noticed that my phone's battery is draining rapidly—about 7% every 10 minutes! When it hits around 40%, it just dies instantly. I'm currently using a Realme C25s that I bought back in 2021 from the official store. At this point, I'm wondering if I should just buy a new phone altogether.

Considering the age of your phone, a battery replacement could help. It might be worth looking into if you're not ready to buy a new device. But I'd suggest checking how much a replacement really costs first.
Honestly, I wouldn't invest in a new battery for a phone that's already five years old. Instead, I recommend replacing the phone entirely. You can find decent options like a Moto G for under $125 in the US!
If you're open to refurbished options, you might get an S22 for around the same price. It's a significant upgrade and just as good as the S25!
Make sure to check your battery usage statistics. It can give you a clearer picture of what's draining your battery. Sometimes, certain apps can be culprits!

That’s what I meant by replace it, sorry for the confusion!
