The new battery gives you an additional 150mAh which is ~10% increase over the stock battery. For those needing a 2nd battery, this is a good option.


I got spoiled with the 2400mAh Treo 650/700 extended battery from Seidio. It was a huge improvement in mAh (33%) and fit in the stock Treo without a special battery cover. HTC did such a good job at making this device compact that it doesn't have the room my Treo did.

That battery lasted me for about a year before I sold the phone and it was still running strong. From experience, I can say they do a great job on their batteries. However, I think I will hold off for now as $50 is a hard pill to swallow for a 10% battery increase. If I were buying a 2nd battery, then I would definitely jump on this now over an OEM battery. Seidio is one of the few battery producers you can trust.

If you want to save some money and turn your phone into an ultra-cool melted pile of plastic then get a cheapo extended battery off e-bay (when they start selling) :p

i agree 50 bucks is to much to spend for 150mah more. i miss my 3200mah battery on my treo. that was the best i could be on aim all day and it would last full day was so great. and it wasn't to big but i no 3200 mah in mogul will be huge.

I'm going to wait. 150 isn't that big of a jump, but at least its a start in the right direction for stock size...

I hope they make a new battery with a new case back that is metal to handle the larger battery....fingers crossed.

It's not worth it for an extra 150 mah. If someone releases an OEM sized battery with an extra hour of talk time, then I'll buy.

Sprint sells the oem extended battery and door for $49.99.

I see it for $69.99 online. Where is it $49.99?

I agree 150maH isn't worth upgrading for.

I'm down to 60% with only 10 hours since charging, 1/2 hr web and 1/2 phone. Is this normal? I would have thought I'd need to be doing a couple of hours of chatting to run it down to 60%??

I am going to pass on this one, hope a bigger battery is coming soon.

i dont do large batteies so I hope they come up with a 1850 with stock size.
