Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)At first, I was skeptical of this even after reading the two existing 5-star
reviews.(and they were the only reviews, so here I am writing my first review on
amazon after 10 years of amazon shopping.)
I've been using Tour 9630 after coming from Nokia E71,
and the only thing that I missed about the E71 was the extraordinary
longevity of E71's battery usage life on a daily basis.
(and maybe a little bit of the thin and sturdy feel of E71)
I haven't really tested the actual hours the battery life, but this definitely
is worth buying for me as now I can run more apps (in my case, IM and Google Map)
w/o worrying whether my bberry can survive the day.
(It seems like I can very easily survive a day of heavy usage of my bberry.)
**I looked it up online and seems like the standard battery (DX1) is only
1400mAh while this one is 2600mAh. And looks like the form factor is not
much ruined, nor too thick, unlike the other crappy looking one on amazon.
Also, if you have a charging pod like me, it charges well with the charging pod:

FEB 18 UPDATE
I am getting 2 to 3 day usage with this! Highly satisfied.
BUT I had to throw away my silicone case that I bought for three bucks,
and now I am using Seidio Innocase 360 for extended battery.
It costs about (...) before (...) shipping,
but to me, who will sell this phone in a few months to try another smartphone,
seems like a good investment!
Note the difference between Innocase regular product and "360" -
it literally covers the keyboard and the screen too.
Still can type the same IMO, and the screen still looks vibrant!
Can't feel much difference-
And I like the fact that the Seidio brand name is hardly noticeable on the case,
unlike the battery cover.
(BUT PLEASE NOTE that the charging cradle WON'T CHARGE the phone WITH the "360" CASE ON)
It does get thicker, AGAIN, but I'd prefer the relief from putting the case on.
IMO It still feels smaller than BB Bold 9000 in my hand.

UPDATE FEB 27
About the charging cradle :
***PLEASE NOTE : It works perfectly fine for my phone, but someone pointed out that
his (or hers) will charge with the cradle ONLY with the battery cover taken off.
(AGAIN, with the "360 Innocase" on, it won't charge, of course)
-----------------------------
UPDATE APR 21
No change in the performance. Extremely satisfied, and definitely worth $50~.
And compared to other Seidio's Extended Batteries for Android phones,
this looks very nice, while those look hideous.
(The biggest reason why I cannot give up my BB for Android phones)
So I am sticking to my Tour 9630!
