I'm not a heavy user. The battery lasts between 3 and 4 days. Good buy.
I ordered this product for my grandson he was total happy with it and we recieved it in the time stated,thank you we would use this company again
In spite of what it says in the product description, the batteries are not new. The one I received did not hold the charge at all, and bore signs of wear on the edges. I complained via email and received, very quickly actually, a second battery, which was not much better.
But after some initial frustration with this battery, I have to say I'm totally satisfied now. I'm not sure what the problem was, possibly that my Blackberry was indicating a full charge when the battery was not yet fully charged.
So my alarm didn't go off and I was late for an early phone conference. This battery, fully charged when I went to bed, couldn't even hold a charge through the night.
Note that the junk battery looks identical to a real one, so all you can do is base your purchase on the reputation of the seller, user feedback, and price (cheap = danger).UPDATE:After several full rechargings, the battery now works fine. Total junk.
I'm back at Amazon to buy a real one this time. I don't know.
I'm upgrading to 3 stars because I don't know whether the original charging problem was the battery's problem, the device's, or operator error.
It held less of a charge than the battery I was replacing. When someone tries to sell you a replacement battery for a fraction the price of what legitimate retailers charge for a new battery, you know something's going on. In my case, I bought one of these replacement batteries for a BlackBerry Pearl and it was useless. I suspect these guys are selling used, worn-out batteries that other people have turned in for recycling, and selling them to hapless Amazon customers. Beware.
