Hi my original battery of Defy is dying. It won't last for half a day. I am planning to get a new one. There are all kinds of batteries on ebay, 1500mah, 1700mah, 1930mah, 2200mah.... I don't want to lose water-resistant so I just want a battery replacement can last long with it. Which is the best choice? I know some of these volumes are fake so the largest number is not always the best choice...

hi, just buy the official battery of your defy
I bought a Polarcell 1600 mAh on ebay. I measured 1570 mAh, which is close enough.
It does have two problems, though. It underreports its capacity (1140 instead of 1600 mAh), and the temperature jumps between 24 and 26 C no matter what the real battery temperature is.
Buy the original battery , If possible purchase the battery a official reseller , On Ebay there are many false
try MUGEN

thanks, will try it
lesson:
1. buy original motorola, try reliable un-official channel if too expensive.
2. buy 3rd party reputable.
3. avoid any has the same size as original but claims significantly higher capacity.
4. avoid batteries that sell for 1/5 the price of an original or 3rd party, you're asking for troubles.
5. when shop on ebay, check seller ratings.
thx.

If NFC ain't working,it is safer to use official.
Other than mAh ,also check input, output volt,etc.

The input and output everything is same as samsung only manufacturer is different .... so I am confused if zerolemon is giving the battery so cheap is it e1 up to the quality standards of samsung ... coz I dont want to fry this device ... can't afford another one for 2 yrs ..
be easy. Never will it fry your chipset.
the sumsung battery is 3.8v in average , 4.35V limited, highest li-ion battery. most other battery is 3.7v average,4.2 limited.
waht's more, inside the phone there are protection circuit and dc-dc circuit to low the battery voltage from 3.5-4.35 to the voltages every part of phone needed.

are you sure about this thing ?
if this the senario then i will buy the zerolemon 3000mAh batteries as they are way cheaper than samsung oem !:victory:
The thing is this:
Any battery, even OEM, has the potential to harm your device, but the Samsung batteries are very high quality and less likely than the super-cheap chinese knock off copies that are made to look like Samsung batteries that you see everywhere on eBay.
A good aftermarket battery, such as Anker (or Zero Lemon or Mugen, etc.) is probably just as safe as OEM, because their quality is also very high, and they carry a good warranty. Personally, I have used Anker in my S2, S3 without any issues at all for years.
zero lemon it is then !!:victory:

yeah, but the potential is very few. There are many protection circuit for the phone. only if all of them failed, which rarely happens.
Chinese battery is always unsafe and ,it has less mAh than it marked.
I'v buy a 2000mAh in my country for S2 whose OEM battery only 1600mAh. I test it on a balance charger for modelplanes, only 1100mAh.
Stick with 'reputable' brands if you're going to use non-Samsung batteries. Not worth risking $800 worth of electronics to find out why the hard way.

Is zerolemon reputable ??
Can't personally vouch for them/not as I've never used their products. But price is almost always a good guide with these things, if they're really cheap, stay away from their stuff.
they are cheap but a lotta people using them ...
So I am confused .... should I just buy oem ?
There's no 'right/wrong answer'. Some people on here have had good experiences with them, some people haven't. I suspect this is because quality of manufacture can vary widely between manufacturers & even between different 'batches' of the same battery from the same manufacturer. For me, I've had one experience with a cheapo brand non-Samsung battery (with my S2) which was a poor one & I was fortunate I could get a refund. End result = I won't use anything other than original Samsung batteries.

so basically its a gamble !
and in my case the house always wins !!!
so i think it will be better to stick to oem batteries ...
It can be a gamble, yeah. But plenty of people on here swear non-Samsung/cheap (as opposed to more expensive ones from reliable companies like Mugen, etc) batteries are fine from lots of manufacturers & they've had good experiences with them, however, if you look through Accessories/elsewhere, you see plenty of people who haven't had good experiences with them.
If you want a battery to work exactly as it should, be at or very very close to the rated capacity printed on the outside, and to last you a reasonable amount of time/give you plenty of use guaranteed (important word), then buy Samsung branded batteries. You know the quality of manufacture is consistent/of a high standard, and if you somehow get one that isn't, it's easy to get a replacement or your money back (and cases like this are rare).
zerolemon says battery for 19$ + 15$ for shipping !!
Lmao ! :laugh::laugh:
i can get the samsung official charging kit and official battery for less than that here !!
OEM it is then !
I have the Anker battery and find it better than the stock battery. Could be placebo but I find it gives me a tiny bit extra battery life.

I would never go aftermarket to be honest. I just couldn't stomach the thought of my phone being denied quality power supply.
May be yes.

Hi all
Im wanting to buy a replacement Battery for my S4 I9505 and after being on eBay, there are so many different brands all offering high capacity batteries and battery dock combos.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_t...ery&_nkw=galaxy+s4+battery&_sacat=0&_from=R40
The question Im asking is:
Are there any of these batteries I should avoid that could damage the phone?.
What are the tell tale signs on a battery that say to be aware of?
Thanks.
There is no damage but I think the best battery is anker
If you use nfc make sure the battery supports it as I bought 1 & didn't realise til I tried nfc then phone wouldn't work correctly til I used a compatible battery
hi
i have note4 n910c with 6.0.1 i bought new battery without NFC seller said it's original it worked not as good as my old one but the issue when blow 40% if i turned off the power saving mode after few minutes phone suddenly turn off and can't turn on again unless remove battery and insert it again . so i replaced it from the seller he gave me another one like the one cause the issue and again the same issue happened below 40% but when i used my original old battery it works fine
any suggestions?
The seller is lying to you. The world is awash in fake Note 4 batteries. Buy from Samsung's website if you want an original.
Get an original battery from Samsung official site, or buy an Anker or PolarCell.

Anker products are excellent and I've never had any problems with them, so they are probably best value. They have excellent customer service and warranty. I have only ever used the official Samsung battery with my Note 4, but my next battery will definitely be an Anker.

No, batteries are identical for all Note 4 variants.
Hey, I have an old note 3 that I use often. I had this a while ago, and didn't know much about smartphone battery health, etc. I used this really sketchy adapter for my charger (still have he original), and my battery is totally gone. Anybody know where I can order a legitimate battery for it? Thanks.
