How do you know when your car battery is about to die before it actually happens?

Hi everyone, I'm hoping some of the more experienced car owners here can help me figure something out because I feel like I'm just waiting for disaster to strike at this point. I have a 2019 Japanese sedan that I bought second hand about eight months ago and honestly I don't know when the previous owner last changed the battery. Lately I've noticed that sometimes when I start the car in the morning it cranks a little slower than usual, not enough to be really obvious but just a tiny hesitation that makes me go hmm. A couple of times the interior lights seemed a bit dimmer than normal but then they were fine after driving for a while so I convinced myself I was imagining things. Then last week I was sitting in the car with the engine off listening to the radio for maybe twenty minutes while waiting to pick up my daughter from school and when I tried to start the car it barely turned over before catching. That actually scared me a little because I've been stranded before due to a dead battery and I really don't want to go through that again especially during summer when waiting outside for help is absolutely miserable. I've been reading online about warning signs and some people say that if your battery is more than three years old you should just replace it preemptively but others say that's wasteful and you should wait until it actually fails. I don't know much about cars so I wouldn't even know where to start with testing the battery myself. I started looking into options for Car Battery Replacement in Abu Dhabi because I figure I should at least know who to call when the day comes rather than panic searching on my phone while stuck in a parking lot somewhere. The thing is I don't want to get ripped off by someone selling me an overpriced battery or charging crazy fees for installation when it's supposedly a simple job. Has anyone here had good experiences with mobile services that come to you? Also what brands of batteries last the longest in this heat because I've heard extreme temperatures can kill them way faster than normal. Should I just replace it now for peace of mind or wait until it completely gives up? Really appreciate any honest advice from people who have been through this before. Thanks everyone.
