So I was told to make a review when I got this, cause people want reviews to see stuff and that ****. Now, onto the review.
Experience:
Arriving home one fateful afternoon, I noticed I had a package from Amazon. I opened up the box like a little fat kid in a candy store, and to my surprise, I didn't get half the item. Sent it back, got another one, all that fancy ****, and I opened it up. As initial impressions goes,
So I put it in and all that fun stuff, tried it out, and yeah. I ran the screen on for about 5 hours, from a 100% charged battery, and I dropped down to 75% in the end. I guess this is somewhat expected, considering the capacity of this battery is almost 2x the stock. Running superclean, standard kernel, the jist.
tl;dr
Pros:
Cons:
This thing costs $24 as of now; if you have the money to spend I see no reason why not to get this, unless you have a limited supply of pocket space; then you're screwed.
Ask me in the channel for pictures, XDA won't let me throw em here.

- Smelt funny.
- The back door is the same "rubber" material as on some of the Logitech mice, and the CR-48.
- Battery had some weight to it.
- The door cover is MUCH more ridgid than the stock one.

Pros:
- Makes the phone feel more ridgid, stable, sturdy.
- LONG battery life, as expected.
- Nice grip to the phone.
- Generally feels nice on the fingers; i.e they don't stick.
- Raises the phone up a bit so the camera lense doesn't get scratched.
Cons:
- Smells funky; probably the packaging.
- Took me about 15 minutes to get it off. Snaps on so tight that it doesn't come back off easily.
- My CR-48 material covering comes off easy, and this is the same material, so I'm worried its going to happen here as well.
