i've recently bought a 1 year 2nd hand e71 set. the seller says its original, and he seems believable.
only 1 problem, the battery lasts for about 1day+
20-30 smses, avg calls, 10mins wifi, GSM mode only, no bluetooth.
Battery i believe its 1 year plus. does this mean that its time the battery about to die? if so if i were to change battery, an AP one (grade AAA) is ok onot? what is the downside of using grade AAA batts?
1 year old battery : lets say averagely 1 week he charge 2 times--> 1 month 8 times--> 12 month 96 times already.. tat is if he 1 week charge 2 times
mine average 1 week charge 4 times--> 1 month 16 times--> 12 month , 192 times already.. battery holding capacity goes down as u use..
for me i think urs is about times for a battery change liao..
my advice is always goes for ori battery, y? ap(regardless AAA, AA, A) battery will give u shitty life, some bought it and come back check it is only 600mah when ori is 1500mAh, most ap battery will giv u something less than 1500mAh de, sometimes (1400, 1486, etc) and they tend to last shorter..
to buy or not to buy those compatible and CLAIM to giv BETTER battery life de? price is same as ori? if not try lor, if same go for ori better ma at least got 6 month waranty..
