Do you trust third parties for Apple servicing ? I’m very skeptical… because we know Apple doesn’t like that.

That however isn’t exclusive to Apple. Most manufacturers want nothing to do with your devices if you have decided to let a third party mess around with it prior. It makes things like service warranty a gamble at best.

Apple doesn't like a lot of things, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is a bad idea. I mean, don't go to a sketchy repair shop, but a good 3rd party is okay. Personally though, I would go to Apple 9 times out of 10.

Yes I know it is not only Apple, but we know Apple designs its products to be very hard to be serviced

I know of a couple 3rd party which provide also 12 months warranty on the new battery, but I never tried
