Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Like the other review stated, the battery lasts only about a year. But, not to put too fine a point on it, I'd like to add the timeframe is independent on usage. In otherwords, the batteries don't seem to 'keep' well.
I just purchased a 'new' battery from Amazon, and although it was unused (as advertised), it was manufactured over a year ago. Despite this, the battery worked perfectly for the first month, but eventually it began to lose ability to hold a charge. At the end of six weeks time it was performing as poorly as the original I replaced.
In a fit of mild disgust I tromped down to the T-Mobile store where I caved in and bought an overpriced (but 'fresh') battery. So far, the new one has behaved fine. My standby and talk times are back up to what they were when I purchased the phone. (Approx 2.5 days w/ light usage, and about 4 hours straight talk time.)
Honestly, I don't think there is anything wrong with the batteries, per se, but I think you will get a better bang for the buck if you manage to find a 'fresh' one. For me, the surest way to do that was to go to a T-Mo store where I could actually inspect the manufacturing date on the battery before I purchased it.
YMMV.
