Stock battery replacement

My original Galaxy W has experienced some bloating and I am looking to replace it with an official Samsung battery. Their website does not stock any batteries for the Galaxy W.
A quick look on Google has turned up one on ebay for around £9. This is coming from the UK and looks to be an official Samsung battery. At the moment, it's probably the one that I will go for.
Does anybody have any experiences of shopping for official Samsung batteries? Especially in the UK.

You could also try Amazon they can be cheaper than ebay sometimes

Thanks for the suggestion. The only official Samsung battery I can find on Amazon is £13. If it had a load of reviews I would probably consider it over the ebay option, in terms of trust, but it only has one review.

I am in the UK. I bought one of these:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-O...898?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item416979566a
It is definitely a genuine, original item. No hassle with the transaction and my phone is much happier now
(the only thing I did notice is that the new battery has an older date of manufacture than the one it was replacing - not that it has made any difference to how well it works)

the first time i bought samsung official battery about 4months ago at SSC the price is $4,,next day after i bought it my dog bite it,, after a week i bought a new one $6,,same SSC, different price and different person. i dunno why the price is different

I`m interested in buying new battery too. But how can I know which battery is orriginal Samsung battery and which isn`t?

Skaties pēc ražotāj valstīm.
Un paskaties uz savu oficialo bateriju, saliidzini tāas.
Look at the company, which has made the battery and the design of it.

Why are you asking S3 owners if they want a fake battery that isn't even for the S3?

UPDATE: let me email the S3 moderator if he/she wants to move this thread to S4 or delete it so i can repost this thread again in S4 forum.

hmm by the way does any one knows if the official S4 battery fits on the S3 (and vice-versa)?!?!
I have at least one guys from another forum that is claiming that...
I know that the battery from S4 chinese dual sim leak, that is also 2600mAh, was almost identical to the S3 battery in terms of dimensions but after analyzing the pictures it came to conclusion that they were different... and cause of that I let it go this matter...

can somebody tell me s4 battery's dimensions

Genuine battery? FAKE! No NFC
Hi all.
I too got sucked in buying a "genuine" i9300 battery from ebay.
The battery looked legit - proper packaging and it cannot be picked from the original battery but it was not til months later that i found NFC would not work.
Works fine with original unit. Turns out the NFC module/coil is inside the battery for S3 (and I think S4) devices.
The dodgy seller (who has dodged all attempts to contact him) has the ebay ID of techno_links.
Long story short the battery itself is fine. I have tested it and it seems to have comparable performance to the original unit - so as long as you dont need NFC it is ok for a spare. My advice though - if you buy one (from ANYONE) make sure you test NFC as soon as you receive it so you can lodge a paypal dispute before the deadline. (Wish i had thought of that)
And that way you will get a spare battery for your i9300 for free!
YAY for paypal!

Nope - the S4 takes an entirely different battery. Wont fit - not even close.

Anything can be written on the battery by those fake producers of battery. If u want a genuine battery just go to the samsung store.
I recently got ripped off from an online website for an 'OEM battery' for my SGS3. NFC worked fine but the battery never lasts a whole day when compared to the stock battery which lasts about a day and a half, with roughly the same amount of usage.

I made a nfc battery from original nfc circuit + compatible battery
I replaced the circuitry from the fake nfc battery with the one from the original battery. The head connector got somehow bulky because of my re-soldering I had to remove the plastic from the downside of the battery, but it's working fine NFC tested ok, the battery is charging. I'm happy, I will use it until I will receive another original Samsung B600BE for my S4

Do not create multiple threads with the same question asked .

Go to Amazon

Ebay ?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

only ebay

In my mind there is too much fake on ebay and amazon, i found a guy who sold his original battery from his S3 for only 15$, you can try to do the same

I am using this since 7 months:
http://www.amazon.de/PolarCell-Sams...e=UTF8&qid=1399962965&sr=8-4&keywords=s3+akku
it is not original but good, it fits the stock back-cover.
But I do not know if you can find it where you live.

Found for you. ships and sold by Amazon.com >> Original 2100 mAh Battery OEM for Samsung Galaxy S3 with NFC and Li-Ion Technology

orjinal is hard to find and i think it's expensive. thanks to our chinesee buddies

Is it available on Amazon,Ebay,AT&T?
But a really original battery is hard to find.Those batteries stated to be " original" don't really mean original.

so good

Just go for an aftermarket battery (that fits with the original battery door). You won't be disappointed.

Where and when were the replacement Note 7.2 produced?

Can you please inform, where and when your replacement unit has been produced?
You can find out this with the Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app from Google Play
There must be a way to find out, even if we don't see the square on the box - e.g. when buying a used Note 7 ...
Thanks !

Vietnam 31/8.....indicates this problem was known about for a while or that factory wasn't using the SDI batteries.

Samsung Galaxy Note7.2 doesn't sound like a bad name. Does Made in Vietnam units have SDI batteries

from what I've read Samsung won't be using their internal battery supply dept for these due to issues and that they are looking to their other suppliers for fulfillment. I'm sure they are just using existing battery stock (not SDI) to fulfill exchanges then when back up to full capacity can fulfill existing orders and new stock orders.

According to phonearena, the new Note 7.2 should have a green battery indicator icon.
Can you guys with new devices confirm this?
Edit:
found the answer in this thread: someone has it, someone not ...

come on, you guys asking for a very unreasonable thing! the only thing that probably be true, is the green batt icon, it would make sense, and it would be really reassuring

How Do i Contact Samsung for battery Replacement?

My a70's battery is damaged. It drains like crazy. I want to know 3 things:
1) How do i get in contact with samsung service center to replace this battery?
2) Will samsung replace the battery for free?
3) Where can i buy a legit battery if I decide to replace it myself?

It will be made in Vietnam or more recently India.
Look for the date code, get a fresh one.
Everything made in China is not OEM.
This looks like it may be tough to do.
Thanks Sammy... you suck.
Replace it now before it fails and potentially damages the display or more!!!
Degraded Li's are more likely to fail.
Do Not attempt to charge if any signs of swelling are present
Try this vendor, they have the OEM 10+ battery it seems.

You're welcome.
No. Check that site for your model.
It's quite a pain to find Samsung OEM parts.
I don't trust the Chinese knockoffs...

Yes I know its hard finding OEM batteries which is why I dare not buy any in aliexpress. Ebay is just as bad.
Btw the store you linked me doesnt have any 170 batteries unfortunately. If you know of another store please link me.
