Just an update. This has been working out pretty well for me so far. Still conditioning the phone and the battery, letting it run down all the way before I charge it back up. I guess the real test will come in the next few weeks, as I go back to school tomorrow along with working in the evening. I think I'm only on my 3rd or 4th charge cycle because it takes a while to run it all the way down. Not like that's anything to complain about really.
For a few of the questions I've seen:
No, it hasn't heated up any more than normal.
No, I haven't seen or experienced any additional lag since e attaching the battery.
I haven't used the NFC features at all, so I'm not too sure how well that works.
Overall, so far, I would say this battery has been worth the $60 I spent on it.
