Nice Battery Cover Replacement

---

I bought this on eBay thinking it was an aluminum case. I just got in the mail and opened it up to find it is a battery cover. I love it! Replace the flimsy one with the aluminum. It adds a bit of weight too. The stock cover goes in the box now.

Nice. Who makes that one?

It clearly says it's a battery door replacement but I didn't read lol

Since metals are opaque to radio waves, your signal strength must have plummeted.

Full bars bro...

Try it in an area where you don't have full bars with the battery door on and off. Or just read off decibel level of the signal from Settings/About/Status.
Bro.

I heard the aluminum back covers screw with nfc

Correction. Grounded metals are opaque to radio waves.

I don't think so. It doesn't matter if a piece of metal is grounded or not, it will absorb most radio frequencies.

It's $12 and looks good. If it affects anything, I have the option of removing it lol.
