Will update if anything changes. My BlackBerry Pearl 8130 Verizon battery died and was kind of skeptical about getting this because it was so inexpensive. However, it works great so far, holds charge for about same length as original battery (I can't see a difference).
For the price I am very pleased. The battery I got from here lasts about a day and sometimes less if I use it a lot, but I wonder if any of them really last any longer. I am very pleased that I was able to get a batterty at this price. I got a blackberry from a friend who said the battery he just bought from a store ($50) didn't work very good.
I hate paying full price for things like these but you just never seem to know what you're gonna get. Doesn't even last the day.Go elsewhere for this. This battery looks like an actual C-M2 Blackberry (which it very well may be). If it is however, it's an old C-M2 battery that keeps about as good a charge as the one I'm replacing.
Honestly I think the one I purchased works a little better. I cannot really tell the difference between them. I have had my phone since Novmeber and I would not only buy one of these spares right now, but save yourself shipping cost and buy two. I honestly never would have thought that I could get a quality battery for my Blackberry 8130 for $7. But I have had the battery for two weeks, swapping my spare out for my original and vice versa when one runs out of charge.
The only difference is this one has a non-OEM looking sticker wrapping it, looks to be printed from a scan of an OEM. Well, I've been swapping back and forth between my original and this one for a few weeks now (to make sure they stay charged) and I can never tell the difference in life, they both seem to work exactly the same. "$6 for a battery. too good to be true." That's what I thought, "but for $6, why not give it a shot." I'm just using it as a "second" battery because the Pearl 8130 has such poor battery life, I could throw this in my luggage, or whatever when I go on a trip.
