Customer Reviews

Only has a 1 year shelf life, used or not
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.

Slim Li Ion battery

Based on my past experienced w/ this batttery, it does'nt last more than a year no matter how much you care of this battery.
Anyway there's always amazon which sells cheaper for replacement.

Inexpensive Battery for a reason
I wanted to replace my 1 year old battery in my Motorola Razr. I found many batteries that were over $35. I found one battery which said it was an OEM for under $4.00. I guess you get what you pay for.

The battery holds a charge very well, except when you make a phone call. After one call the battery is saying it needs to be recharged. I'm back to using my 1 year old battery, it holds a charge longer then the new one.
