Hi everyone,
I've been thinking about replacing my battery and a quick search on Ebay led me to find some sellers who claim to have a 3700 mAh batteries.
Now my first response is to not trust these batteries and just get an original one, which I probably will, but I'm really curious if anyone here has tried one?
Here are a couple of links to these 3700 mAh batteries:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/BLP633-370...342121?hash=item1edc516aa9:g:~BMAAOSwoX5asMid
https://www.ebay.com/itm/3700mAh-Ba...743007?hash=item1ee028189f:g:Ac0AAOSwqxRa7B00
https://www.ebay.com/itm/3700mAh-BL...652403?hash=item2cd4142a73:g:wjEAAOSwsxJa9Isl
What are your thoughts about these?
Don't get any battery that isn't a OnePlus Battery. If you have a choice, never go for the battery that is advertised with a different amperage.
Go for a 3400mAh battery, better if it's a OnePlus original. Since our devices uses Dash Charge, which is only on OnePlus devices, it's best to go for an original, since we cannot know what effect DC will have on third party batteries.
Unless your battery has degraded lower than 50% and you need an emergency replacement till your original arrives, these batteries should not be trusted. There even may be a risk of high thermals and degrading your other phone hardware too.

Exactly my thought. Was just wondering if anyone was mad enough to actually try one of these. You never know, maybe they are unexpectedly good :silly:
Can you point me to any original OnePlus battery replacement?

Ditto, I judt called OnePlus (US support line) and they told me they don't cell the battery or any replacement parts, I would have to send the phone for service to their authorized center.
So does anyone know where I can an original, third party seller one?
I purchased this one a few weeks ago, can't fault it!
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152704815983
I think they sell via a website as well.

Have a look and read on the product page of their website:

I just replaced my OP3T battery with a replacement from here:

It says it's an original and so far it works like a charm. Will report back on how it performs.

Rated means how much it is designed to have, and tested is the actual amount of MAh in the battery. With every battery there is a difference between rated and tested. 3300MAh tested is actually really good.
I wonder how much the original batteries are tested for.

In their page, they say "Capacity: 3300mAh (rated) 3400mAh (typical)"
BTW, does anyone notice that after replacing the battery, the AccuBattery app is completely out of whack?
I cleared the data to get some clean info on my new battery, but after two or three charges, the app sees my new battery as ~2500mAh and with every charge it's rising. (My last battery was calculated as ~2800mAh)
So far it seems that the battery lasts longer, so the data from the app is conflicting...
I know that the AB app data isn't really reliable in comparison to real measuring equipment, but I'm just wondering about this.
I have replaced it, but it says that it have 0% charge, and doesn't charge anymore. Any help?
Edit: The seller have sent one more to me; it's corrupt, they say.

In my experience non-OEM batteries start to degrade after a few months. How has yours held up? I'm looking to replace mine if I can find a genuine OEM part.

The one I bought is supposed to be genuine, it even bears a OnePlus logo. But the first died on me in a week or two, so I got a free replacement from them, and so far it fares great. AccuBattery reports it as being well above 3000mAh, and I can reach the end of the day with my phone again, so I'm quite happy.
so why does everyone praise oneplus for their easy to repair devices and parts and build quality and all, if I can't even buy a replacement part? I'm forced to buy a new phone because my battery is broken. So next time I will go and buy a Samsung. Harder to open and all but I can buy a original battery in any other store.

There are plenty of stores that sell original batteries. And a plethora of non-original batteries to choose from too.
I just send my phone back to OP and have them replace the battery under warranty (It's covered.)

I wanted to buy a spare battery for my Captivate. I went to ebay an found many OEM Batteries sold at a cheaper price compared to the one sold on Samsung shop.
Are there any difference in quality between these OEM and Original batteries?

Keep in mind, that even though the eBay batteries say "OEM" - it has been shown that they are not original samsung batteries. These Hong Kong sellers list everything as OEM - usually they say "an OEM battery manufacuter" - implying that the batteries are made by "somebody" that makes original equipment for some manufacturer.
I don't want to scare you; for $3 apiece the batteries work well, but many have been reporting occasional reboots or batteries that only charge to 80%. Even the ones that say Samsung are usually knockoffs.
I bought one of the Samsung batteries from Ebay. I was not sure if it was a knockoff that looked real or not and really still don't. It does outlast my original battery though. Neither are great but for whatever reason I get better performance out of the Ebay one. It is dated July 12, 2010 and the one that came in my phone is dated Nov 10, 2010. I crush them both daily as I stay on the phone and internet a lot. I'm ordering another one.
Nifty idea
Do this. I went to ebay and typed in "Samsung Captivate battery charger". For only $8(including shipping) I got a wall charger for my samsungs batteries AND TWO batteries! They came from Hong Kong but both after-market batteries last as long or longer than the stock battery. That and I haven't plugged my phone into the wall since the end of August. I have a battery in the wall charger while I'm not using it and when the one in my phone is about to die I simply change the batteries and put the dead one on the charger. I keep the third fully charged and in my car. It makes life sooooo much easier and I never have to worry about a dead phone no matter how much I use it which is a lot! I have done the same for my Nexus One and totally recommended this to anyone, heavy user or not. Lets see you do THAT iPhone!

I'd appreciate hearing as well. So far he's only sold 36. Most of the few complaints have to do with non-receipt.
I ended up getting the desktop charger and it comes with another battery from Samsung its 49.99 and i used a coupon code "mobile10" gave me 7.50 off of the final price. I used to get ebay batteries for my nokia and they would all discharge Outta the blue like i had 80% then just shut off and when I would turn back on their say 5% or so.

Yeah, it is not the original battery. It's a generic one. I hope this works well as the original ones. I heard complaints (from AMAZON.com) about that certain generic batteries that can't charge from the phone; can be only charged using the provided charger.
I hope this is not the case. I really need a spare battery with an external charger.

What rom are you using? I'm constantly online/tethering as well as listening to music and I get a minimum of 12 hours out of my battery with Cognition
I just got in the two batteries! I really like it so far but too soon to tell I guess.
Ran into my first issue. As nissy86 said, I can't charge from the phone - it turns off completely after leaving it charge for too long.
I'm quite happy with my purchase! I can charge from the phone, but if I leave it too long at 100% it shuts off. Otherwise, works perfect. I am just leaving the OEM batter in the phone, and keeping the two around as needed and I am happy
Are there any risks associated with buying a non original battery if it says on the website that it can be used for the phone?

If it's poorly made, be ready for it to leak, buldge or even break your phone. Most are "ok" even though they don't hold the same capacity. But still, to answer your question, yes, there are risks.
You might as well buy an original samsung. I'm shocked at how cheap they seem to be. Amazon are selling them for less than £6. I remember when phone batteries were like £30 or more.

What is wrong with you, that one is clearly not original.
I will say this, for just backup use, thic ceap batteries are okey. Bu for caonstant use in phone there is first problem with much less capacity than original, and also that cheap are not ment to be used 24/7, there are risks.
While there i no risk if you just use it occasionaly.
If you need a real replacement batteriy, there are some quality alternatives to original bateries. Like for example Mugen bateries, they have quality at same level as original.

It is actually just an external battery charge with a stand for you to stand the phone on. It does not charge the phone. I thought that I couldn't go wrong for just $12.53 even if it was 3rd party, but when I received it, it was an actual original Samsung item with a proper Samsung part number and not the SHW M250L that is listed on the website.

although it lasts a bit longer, when it gets to around 30% then its no more stable and it will possible have the the usual behaviour we all know dropping instantly to 20-10% in minutes etc...
anyways....is there something we have to do when we replace a battery? Are there and battery stats or something that we have to reset or tickle so that Android will "learn" the new installed battery is in place?

Not looking for extreme capacities and stuff, but one that you have tested and behaves just like or close to when we all had the original battery that came with the phone.
Someone recommended the Deji battery but there is no way on earth i can find somewhere else than this Turkish shop
I have been on TechOrbits battery bought at Amazon.com for about two weeks now and am satisfied with it. They have warranty, so if the battery bloats (which happened to the previous eBay knock-off in just one year) I could get it replaced.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M5EK96F/
i would really go down and get this one
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/39677-of...-1900mah-standard-battery-Reviews.htm#reviews
judging by so many positive comments i think its the safest bet so far, so many fakes....i bought one for 8€ and it sucks badly.its getting close to the performance my 3year old official battery had.
Having lost my original battery and having to rely on a cheap ebay battery I thought I'd try mobilefun. THey shipped immediately, battery arrived in what looked like official Samsung packaging. So far so good, battery lasts much longer than my cheap ebay option and probably longer than my original battery but I dont have any stats to back that up. Battery discharge is slow and steady unlike the cheap ebay option which I've found tends to drop off a cliff when it drops below 15%. I can confirm that NFC works as well. Still early days but the signs look promising.
There are genuine Samsung batteries on eBay, the best bet is listings that include a photo of the packaging. A seller that is closer to home is preferred as well (if your home is not China or Hong Kong, anyway).

I have the same behavior as well with my 1900 mA battery although I bought it from an official store for around 27 USD.
This behavior appeared only few months after purchase.
Now the battery charges in 2 hours and 5 minutes and lasts for 6 or 7 hours only (normal usage).

This does QuickCharge 2.0 in AND out: http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Certified-Aukey-10400mAh-Supported/dp/B00UBDI7EC
It's pretty compact too. I use a lot of Aukey products; at first I thought they were a knockoff Anker but they're just as good.
There's also this one with the same capacity, but it's longer and has two ports and an LED flashlight. So it's basically same capacity, but do you want portability or flexibility.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B011U0AY22?psc=1
So it should charge your battery as fast as the ASUS charger.

Nothing is ever completely "non-removable", mate.
Easiest solution would be a usb power case, although i haven't seen any for this phone so far.
Changing the battery on this phone is a fairly simple process, especially if you have fixed a phone before. The toughest part is the glue, but a little heat goes a long way. Just fixed the screen and changed the battery on a Mate 2, and I think that's a little more complex than the ZenFone 2. The biggest challenge would be finding a higher capacity battery that the firmware would recognize.....and that would fit.

The only company that I think would make an extended battery for this is ZeroLemon. They are the only ones I've seen to use creative shapes to take advantage of extra room in the Z dimension. The only thing that would stop them from taking it on is plain economics. They would have to see that this phone is not only popular enough, but also enough nerds like us to justify dumping resources into R&D for it.

Guys, I had never see replacement battery for non-removable battery products..you can wish for battery-covers but I don't get the point, the phone in already very big and heavy (170 grams are already a lot), if you increase battery (and it's not possible in the original case, maybe only Mugen is able to do this, but I don't think they will produce a battery for a non-removable product) it will will become a brick and you can use it to build your new house Seriously, I think it's better to buy a powerbank (I use the Xiaomi 10400 and it's great). Asus won't release a new battery for this phone, removing the original battery you will void warranty. For me, no chances.
I am considering the zenfone 2 as an option for my next phone. Thing is, i dont like the idea to have after 2-3 Years get rid of the phone because the battery is gone.
I searched the web and didnt find a original or third party replacement battery.
Is that possible? Any Ideass guys?

Hey Marco!
You made my day! :good::highfive:
Thx for the link!!
Greetings from Germany . . .
Doesn't matter if you see the point or think the phone is already too big. I want a battery case much like the ZeroLemon case for the Galaxy Note series. I dont care how big or bulky my phone is, I have huge hands and I would prefer to have a phone that lasts two days instead of one that looks pretty.
I myself have looked for either a bigger battery, or a case, and have found nothing...
Unfortunately the only solution would be to carry a power bank of some sort. I guess the phone isn't that popular .

I purchased mine in AsusParts, took 2-3 weeks cause it ships from Asia to Europe and then to your country, installed and everything works fine ATM.
Before, I tried at AliExpress but they sent the wrong battery, I think Zenfone 5 has the same battery with a different connector (check my thread about screen replacement in Q&A section for more info)
Yeah, I have tried to find something like that without success.
I have a question since i stumble upon a 4000 mah battery while online shopping yesterday (BN31 the same code with the original MiA1 battery). Is it ok/safe installing this kind of battery? (The battery are not manufactured by Xiaomi)
As long as the ratings are the same as the Xiaomi mi a1's battery it's safe to replace them. But the longevity of them depends on the quality

Most likely the 4000 rating is false, China manufacturers are well known for this.
I received the "chensuper" battery. I've swapped mine with the new one but in cpuz shows 3080 mah like the old one.

It's the same (shame) capacity of the official one so there are not improves on that. But for the price it's a good replacement.

For me there is a bit of improvement but still I'll suggest that you stick with the original battery since mine bloated up due to heavy usage and frequent discharging and charging of the battery. With the original battery, it already reaching its 2 years of life time now since first bought and it need a change of new battery now because the capacity is way to low to even last a half day. :laugh:
I have bought a 5000mah bn31 battery from the brand Losoncoer. When arrived the packaging said 6400mah. I can surely say that after 3 and a half months its capacity is exactly the half of the stated one. Around 3200 mah. But it takes much more time to charge, so I advise everyone to buy original Xiaomi replacement parts.

The moral of the story is, you should always buy genuine parts. Because batteries are typical piece of work. The manufacturing used by the OEM is robust compared to the local ones. So its always far better to buy underived ones. Other stuff like display, digitizer can be taken from third party vendor. But for batteries always choose OEM one.
For me it is still usable, but it has far worse screen on time, so yeah buy genuine batteries.
Altough in my mi a1 the usb-c port died the 4th time in the last 2 years, they always lasted half a year, no matter if i bought genuine part for Replacement or not?

I have no idea at all. At first it will throw away charge at random times. Later it develops worse contact problems. It starts to only charge slowly and at the very end it could only take up charge if I apply force on it sideways.
I charge my phone every night. I used the original cable but lately i am using a blitzwolf branded one.
I have friends whose phone's port only needed a cleaning, but it does not help mine.
yeah
i want to replace my phone's battery can i buy original battery online if not then which battery is good to buy online?
