iPhone 12 Pro: battery replacement, MagSafe power bank or upgrade to 13 Pro?

Help ❗️

Even though my iPhone 12 Pro is getting close to the end of its life, I’m still very satisfied with its performance and design, and I don’t really have a reason to upgrade.
The only real downside is the battery life.
Would it be better to replace the battery at an Apple Store for around €100? (It’s currently at 87% battery health.) Or should I buy a good-quality MagSafe power bank instead?
I was specifically looking at the Anker MagGo Power Bank MagSafe 10,000mAh Qi2, which costs around €60.
Alternatively, I could upgrade to a 13 Pro. How much would the difference in price be, and would it actually be worth it?
What would you recommend?
