Just ordered one of these - figured, "What the hell, it's only $10 !"

Even if I get just the same amount of juice that the stock battery gives me , it's only $10... Plus it's not coming from China.

After seeing it was only 10 bucks I myself purchased one as well. I should receive it by Wednesday so like others on the thread, I'll check back after then.

No no no, I think you misunderstood me - It's not being SHIPPED from China to me - it's coming from a seller in the US :)

The more I think about it, I think i would rather carry around a charger than remove this battery cover...

Ditto. However, having a spare battery does come in handy in certain situations.

For those who travel a lot like me, it's very handy to have a spare oppose to an external charger. It's much easier to just pop a fresh battery in and not have to find a charger to stand next to a wall outlet to make calls...

I do admit though, the HTC cover is pretty funky...it's a first...very odd...

And it's got active connections, so i think it's not the best idea to remove it often.

I travel a lot too so ill need a spare battery. It just worries me. I have three for my hd2 that I was using, but popping the battery cover off on the hd2 is simple. I feel like doing so on the sensation will eventually wear it out. Or ill break something. Total pain in the ass.

I just picked one of these up myself. I should expect it by Tuesday since the seller is local. I'll keep everyone updated as well but so far the stock battery hasn't done well compare to my N1 since i've switched to this phone.

    Some comparisons....

    Anker...

    Chichitech...

    Stock...

    Conclusion...
    The Anker and Chichitech are the SAME CELL just with a different label. They look exactly the same and both hold a capacity of 1700mah. They do have more capacity than the stock battery but not much by much. My opinion is that if you want a cheap way to get a little more life, get the Anker. If you dont mind spending a couple extra bucks (literally) you should get an Evo 3D battery which is basically the same as the Anker (capacity wise) only it is HTC branded and the temperature reports correctly. Me personally will be using the Evo 3D battery in my Sensation.

    I used my scale at work (Police Department- need to weigh drugs exactly :)) and this is what I found.

    Stock HTC 1520mAh= 31.54 grams

    Anker 1900 mAh = 34.43 grams

    Difference of 2.89 grams

    For anyone who wants to see a quantitative test of the Anker battery versus the OEM battery, I wrote a quick review here.

    Vendor has lied about capacity and ISO-certification, and the thermostat does not work. Also other quality issues.
