Having 2 of them is a big difference. They also sell 4300(I think)mAh ones for $20. I would get that but I can't give up the sexiness of my phone with the diztronic case.

In two days I will. But for now all I got is my brother and his wifes opinion, and the 5 star rating. And all the other good ratings on their past products. And the 5 star rating and my brother and sister in laws opinion on the 4200mAh battery.

I'm just trying to help people save, I have bad memories of wasting money on terrible phone accessories, and missing out on great deals.

I'm willing to bet that those batteries don't even last as long as the stock battery. You can slap a sticker on a battery claiming whatever capacity you want, doesn't make it true.

The reviews where people say it lasts like 9 hours doesn't make sense to me unless they are heavy users. I can get 20+ hours with moderate use with 3g on all day and switching to 4g for some youtube streaming at night.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but Amazon also shows you reviews of their products. But hey, you obviously know more than the people who actually bought the batteries and used them.

Keep buying the $40 samsung batteries.

I ended up ordering it lol.

Not trying to discount this battery or anything but, I remember buying one of these extended batteries for my old Droid Incredible and it turned out to have worse battery life than the stock one. Unless you buy an extended battery that is physically thicker to accommodate the extra NiMH material in it (to hold more of a charge) then you are not going to gain anything. Also, don't believe every review on Amazon, it has been proven that the sellers of these products actually leave 5+ reviews.

One of the reviews as someone mentioned states this "Full drain for me is 9 hours on battery which is on par with the OEM. With two batteries, I have more than enough power to last full 2 days." Now if one battery lasts 9 hours full drain, how is it possible that two of the same exact batteries will last him 2 full days? Last I checked 9 hours is only less than half a day so wouldn't two batteries last him 1 full day?

If they're bad ill return them. I've never not been able to get a refund off amazon.

Maybe he mean't two full work days with an 8 hour job, I don't know. I'm sorry I used the wrong term, but technically since this battery is 2300mAh it is an extended battery, may not be a huge leap but it's still bigger than the original.

The sellers must of left a lot of fake 4 and 5 star reviews on all their products.

And about the droid inc battery, it's quite possible that you may have gotten a faulty battery. Good thing Amazon is good with returns.

I'm not sure you noticed but people are saying in their reviews that they last as long as the stock battery. Since the stock battery is 2100 mAh, my point is pretty much proven.

Why would I be paying for a battery? My phone came with one.

Yep the numbers are heavily fudged on these batteries. You are probably better off with stock.
