I'm thinking of getting an EVO LTE. I've never had one of these batteries that you can't replace. Two questions --

1. How long will it last?
2. Does this mean that if you run out of juice on the road, you're just out of luck? With my old EVO, I always carried a spare battery, just in case.

I will say this as someone who had the OG Evo for almost 2 years before switching to the
E4GLTE...you won't be disappointed by battery life here. I'm well aware of the days of bringing a charger everywhere I went because I wanted to be prepared. If you use Sprint's 3G, it will get you through the day. If you're like me and use wi-fi everywhere you go, you'll charge every other day. Just keep the screen brightness on auto.

Actually it can be replaced,, and they are not a lot of money. I ordered one just in case and it's on back order. Apparently many others are buying them also. Okay its not something you can replace on the road but that will not be an issue. Battery Life is great. Especially if you have a car charger.

0. You *CAN* replace the battery. It costs about $25 and takes about 5 min.

1. It depends on 1,000 different factors. From several hours to days. It will last about 5 times longer than what you are used to on your Evo OG.

2. If you carried a spare battery then just carry an external battery for the Evo LTE. They vary from $25 to $35. You will likely never use it.

My EVO easily goes 18 hours with heavy use. I got an Anker 5600 Power Bank on Amazon, currently $34. It has enough juice to fully recharge my EVO three times. That's a lot more security than just a spare battery. But I've never needed it so far.

A better photo of the Anker Power Bank 5600. It's small and quite pocketable.

Yep, that is the one I bought and recommended to people several times.

Like you, I have never used or needed it yet.

Neat tip: Plug the HTC charger into the Anker. Plug the tiny/short USB cord into the Anker output. Then just charge your phone using the short cord. The Anker is always charged and ready and there is only one charger needed.

Dear Buddy, i just think the products price is little higher than ebay, please tell me if this website is normal and the products' quality is ok? i want to buy some HTC evo 4g lte lcd.

Who is buddy? What is normal website? Yes it's a real (not make believe) website. The parts are the "real" replacement parts. I don't fully get it. If you found the "real" replacement parts cheaper somewhere else then what's the problem,, get them where you want.
