1930mAh battery

Can I use a 4.2v battery in my X8? The current battery is 3.7v and I believe the phone charges using 4.2v.
It would be a great find as this battery is 1930mAh and it is the same size as the original unlike the other battery on the market that requires an adapted case.

My advice, don't buy it. It is a fake that is nowhere close to 1930mAh.

saw the battery with 1500 mAh with little bigger size.
But with 4.2v - it may works.

I prefer to buy only original parts for your mobile X8. Otherwise will it not work I think,but im not sure.

Of course it works.. Although, it's recommended official batteries..

I've heard that unofficial batteries can explode, melt or not work at all.

Much better if you use original batteries, bec different batteries have different specs (or output current) which might have bad effects on your phone when you use it.

I have it !
I have this battery only for two days. But now I think this "gold 1930mAh battery is better than original. It is my subjective impress. But time of standby on battery is about 30hours and level of battery is 19% now.
usage of battery :
about 3-4 min phoning
about 2hours of playing music in ear phones
3G or EDGE was on all time - gmail
about 15 min surfing
about 5 min in facebook app
about 20 sms - all via internet ( application )
I THING - you cant do this with orig battery.
I will test phone and i will tell you my experience.
But now I can say - it was good deal for me !!!

X8 is a good mobile of Sony Ericcson and my Advice for you if you want to buy this mobile the buy its original parts otherwise don,t buy because i have use it so many times but it was not original so therefore its battery timing was bad .

i think its fake...

Is it true ? my x8 should be life for 3 day with 1930 mAh

Hahahahaha. Are you saying my phone will go flat after 5 mins of using the facebook app?

just to share with you guys, i bought the "1920mah gold battery" mentioned by TS. It works perfectly well with X8. I used it for a week so far, no problems with it yet.
Physically, it feels a bit lighter than the stock EP500 battery, and it definitely does not live up to the 1920mah as stated. I personally feel that this gold battery can last about as long as the stock battery, definitely not more.
So if you are looking for a cheap alternative battery for your x8, and dont mind the risks involved in using non-official SE battery, this might work for you. Else i suggest you stick to the original ones.

where did you get the "1920mah gold battery" shipping? or store? how much.? just asking,,,

I'm glad that you tried the battery ,and find no problem.Maybe I can have a try ..

umm... Then you would never recommend going for a custom firmware or anything that would void SE's warranty, and cling to the stupid base firmware that the SE proudly provides in its x8!... well, in that case, ...damn, there's no emotion for this one!

I don't think so it is true

handsfree very poor..
casing from plastic ..
ever think original battery also low level class??
in out there already battery with more extreme than this one, and i think will not give bad effect as long it design to x8.
remember all electronic part having maximum voltage n ampere tolerance,
i mean they can handle unstandart voltage n ampere..
effect like warm or explode is not because voltage, but because fault product, wrong operations, and cell shortcut (because we use this battery non stop)

i think original battery work fine.. it help me test bug from app as well.. if it drain fast.. so it must be app problem

I got it in ebay, many stores are selling. Just do a search in ebay for 'ep500 gold battery' and you can look for the cheapest to be shipped to your country.

[Xperia V] 1900maH battery

Want a better battery but not the giant mugen power one? I noticed that the Xperia S BA 800 battery has the same specifications except it's 1900maH instead of the V's 1750maH. See here: http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/Son...eplacement-1900mAh-Model-BA800-BATY-LT26i-01/
Just got mine today and it's been working well so far, will update in case it blows up.

Nice!
If you could, please, make a small review later, about the longevity, charging time, etc, it would be great!

Sure no prob! However, it will take several days of overcharing and draining to figure out the actual capacity. On my first discharge now, at 90% with 32 minutes screen time @ 60% brightness.
edit: hit 1 hour screen time with 81% remaining. I am just texting/web surfing.

****ing thing just turned off at 30% :/
hope it can be calibrated

It won't get any better, thats for sure. Just check this post (it's in german only):
http://www.android-hilfe.de/sony-xp...ead-fuer-das-sony-xperia-v-4.html#post5645646
There you can see the same battery and some charts. Just what I read there:
Assuming the original Sony BA800 has true 1700mAh this one has only about 1400mAh (based on runtime comparison).
This battery goes from 20% => Off always and therefore is not reliable.
This battery has a faked CE logo so it must not be selled in Europe (officially)

Runtime is basically the same for me- about 3 hours screen time and then it shuts off weather it's the chinese fake or the sony original

batteries that claim to have more capacity than the original usually don't turn out to be, especially ones from ebay. Nevertheless, if they're cheap, there's no harm in having extra backup

I'm in the same situation as the thread creator. I want a bigger battery, but not to big. Suggestions?
I found a 1900 mAh on ebay, but can't post it here because I'm a new user :silly:

thats cool! I will check it out and try it soon!

i got mine too from ebay. took 1 month to deliver to India from hong kong. working good and it didnt turned off in the middle. tested successfully till it switches off. i didnt noticed the extra 200 mAh power than the 1700 mAh battery. i should say the original one is slightly better but even though i can admit i got two 1700 mAh batteries

If you did get a low cost battery from China which has similar to OEM capacity call yourself lucky.

Hi, you have any experience with this battery?, why you say that is a fake?
I don't say that is a good battery because i din't check it, and i'm also searching for a bigger battery for my phone.
So please, can you explain me why is not a good battery?

The OEM battery capacity is what you get from a Lithium of that size.

It lasted a noticeably less time than the stock battery, and there's been people who tore away the gold sticker and saw that the actual battery had the actual mah engraved in it, and it turned out to be 300 or 400 mah (I think) less than the stock battery

Mugen Power 4600 mah and 2500 mah batteries for ZR

So while randomly trawling the Internet for accessories for the ZR, I stumbled on this.
Mugen Power has come up with two batteries for the zr. The 4600 mah version comes with a battery door of course, while the 2500 mah one promises to fit into the existing back cover but for $44, doesn't quite make sense to spend that much money on a battery that will give you 9% more battery life.
I thought about getting the 4600 mah battery (deliveries begin in the first week of September) but two things held me back:
1. Will the new back door support nfc and the waterproofing? Not sure about this. The website doesn't have any proper images.
2. The phone looks like a whale.
What do you guys think?

I think it's have to look like a whale bro.., its still a 4600 mAh battery
For the waterproofing, i saw a video on YouTube of the mugen power batteries of the Xperia V, which he's design similar to the ZR, n they say the back cover they provide with the battery is keeping on the waterproof feature, n water can't get inside..
So u don't need to afraid man.. otherwise u can get one of this n be careful not to be around water..
Still here
N!geR -> E!ch0

I am at one step for make this purshase, and I have the same questions...
Does anyone tasted it? working nfc and waterproof?
Thanks for your answers

I had the Mugen-battery to my Xperia V and I was truly disappointed about the door.
It could fall off in my pocket without any reason.
The sealing looked like original but I couldnt rely on the waterproof quality.
The battery itself worked as expected!

50% more battery life for £17. Still ugly, though:

They should make something like a 3000mah that doesn't look like your phone swallowed another one. I could live with a 2-3cm more but this is ridiculous.
Also something like this will be much more good looking.

This one looks promising.......

Really interested in the actual capacity of the batteries. Which are fakes? Which are real? Can people who bought them post them here?
I bought the 2600mah for $4 on ebay seller u daily. Its actual capacity is about half of that.
I bought a 2800mah for $5 from ebay seller niking niking and its actual capacity is seems to be close to the original 2300mah, a bit less.

I went by how fast the battery % it fell. the 2800mah(niking-niking) for $5 is still pretty good for the price considering the capacity is slightly less than the original battery(probably 2200~2300).

Avoid this battery...
There are too many bad, cheap batteries being sold. I decided to buy one just for the sake of it and it performed horribly. It came in a sealed plastic wrap with the "BA950" word and an Android logo, nothing else. The battery was made really poorly. The wrap is made of paper (yes, paper) and the specs don't match the real capacity. My phone turned off at about 55% every time and the charging time was 90 min. It has a Sony Ericsson logo :silly: and an "A&J" sticker (brand?) on the back and a very bad SONY one on the front. It costs 5 bucks, but believe me, you don't want to buy it. Save those bucks for a better battery instead. You have been warned
