!TESTING! OEM-Battery Vs. Hong Kong Non-OEM Battery

[joker402]

In all honestly probly not man, i would just keep it as a back up in case the stock ones dies and you still need to use the phone before you can get to a charger.

Dang, I just got one of these Hong Kong batteries that's shipping to me now. I'm going to SXSW next week and figured i'd be on my phone constantly, using the maps/finding out where shows are/texting everyone i know to see where people are at. Hope it works better than you guys are saying.

I have been involved with batteries for a LONG time (RC cars and planes, PDAs etc) I even build my own packs. Generally, you get what you pay for. Also knowing how things are sold in in the Chinese markets these packs are probably made up of cells that are rejected by the top tier manufacturers. They are, for the lack of a better term, "sloppy seconds."
