Fake - but it works

I purchased this battery from A1 accessories for about 12 USD (including shipping - I guess it was $7+$5 for S&H).
The battery itself is pretty decent - Upon charging fully, it retains the charge for about 2 days (of normal usage).
However, on a few occasions, my phone (w580i) refused to charge the battery and notified me to insert an original Sony Ericsson Battery !
Nevertheless, the phone simply accepted the battery after I took-it out and re-placed it again.
It serves my purpose for now. Apart from the product being a (pretty decent) fake, I have no complaints with it. The shipping was prompt and I got it delivered within 2 to 3 days ! |
The price is right, but the lifespan is short

| I bought this to replace my old Sony Ericsson W580i battery which would no longer hold a charge after 18 months of use. The original battery was great, would stay charged for 5 days or more depending on use, sometimes up to a week. This replacement will only stay charged for 2-3 days tops, and loses all power rather suddenly when the time is up. It was very inexpensive, so you get what you pay for. As long as you have access to your phone charger regularly, it will serve its purpose. If you've grown accustomed to long times between plug-ins, you may be disappointed. |

| The battery came in OEM fashion with no box, only a plastic baggie. It was inexpensive. I switch it out all the time making good use of both batteries (original and new). It works and holds a charge so I'm happy with the purchase-would do it again. |
satisified customer

| I always buy a second battery for my phones for when one goes dead i can just swap the second one in untill i am around my charger. This battery worked great has almost the same life as the original battery the phone came with. For the price you cant beat this! |
Authentic at a Great Price

| This was perfect for the Sony Ericsson which run an authenticity check on the battery before ir "accepts" it. Prior to this purchase I purchase another non-authentic battery an the phone acted irradically. Sony sells their batteries for $50+sh |
The battery is good, but i do not feel this item is New

The battery had minor scratches, which I believe to be a new product would have to come in a sealed package, which was not received.
The battery performance is not bad but not perfect, I think if things sealed would have no doubt |
