$1,850 difference for the same apps. Hard no.
Wait · trade_in_tips
Do the battery now, upgrade in 2 years while the trade-in is still worth something.
Buy it · camera_nerd_99
If you take a lot of photos, three generations of camera upgrades is a big jump. Otherwise, battery.

"Everything else works fine" is the whole answer here.
Wait · battery_swap_saved_me
Replace the battery. $149 and it'll feel brand new. I'm on year 5 with mine.
