Aria non-OEM battery?

[drjim]

I just ordered two Aria batteries off of ebay from Hong Kong and when they arrived, they say for HTC HD Mini.

They look the same and fit.

Can anyone tell me if they are equivalent and if the batteries will work?

Yeah they will work. I just orderded the same ones and it comes with a wall charger for it. I had the same thing for my Storm 2 and it worked just fine.

Thanks. I charged up the new batteries and tested them. Worked fine.

for under $20 (free shipping) I got two batteries, a wall charger, and a car charger on ebay. Arrived in a week. Such a deal! Beats spending $40 on an OEM battery alone.

Just ordered a 1500mAh replacement for HD mini from eBay. Better than 1200mAh on the OEM battery. Wouldn't have known this battery fit if it wasn't for this thread. Thanks.

Do you have a link for what you bought? That sounds like a great deal. Keep us updated how battery life compares with the OEM.

Here's the link to the ebay page:

There are a lot of different options; all seem to be from the same HK company.

Can you send me the link to the 1500mAh battery? Same size as OEM?
