Aftermarket Extended Battery RECIEVED

Ok so just a quick update. I've had my phone on as a hot spot while my girl uses the laptop and I've been streaming YouTube and basicly heavily using Internet trying to murder this battery. For 4 hours and 30 minutes. My stock battery would be dead but I'm still at 68 percent battery
 
And I'll also mention that the phone is usually at 110 degrees especially using wireless tether but not with the new battery. It's sitting happily at 79 degrees :) I am very pleased already

How long did yours take before for you received it? And did you order from China or California?

Yeah it's worth it either way and as I said b4 y would the phone manufacturers waste money putting them on phone's if they didn't enhance the reception

I tried this battery for a week and I'm going back to my original. I don't like the extra bulk so if anyone is interested I can sell them mine same price as they are on eBay and you can get it in a couple days vs a couple weeks from China.

I got over 4 days with about 2 and a half hours of talk time and I still have a 25% charge. So it does give a bit more life between charges.

I felt the same way.I returned mine the next day for a refund and picked up two stranded replacement batteries along with a wall/usb charger and i could not be happier.If i am heading out for a hike,run or bike ride and will be using the gps on Endomondo Sports Tracker along with my Bluetooth stereo headphones then i just toss one or both in my backpack,saddle bag or armband case and im good for the day this way its still sleek and comfortable and its not looking like some old outdated device,I knew as soon as i received it that it would not fit in my armband case and be to bulky to fit in my handle bar mounting bracket so that was the deal breaker.Its a good concept just not functional for my life style.
