Hey guys,

a few days ago i bought a battery for my ace.
Im not sure wether its fake or not, but compared to my old battery there are some differences:
the QR-code of the new battery is bigger
the scriptue seems to be a little displaced

i hope someone can help me because i want to use original samsung battery exclusively.

ps: i attached a photo of both batteries, the left one is the new one and the old one is on the right

It looks legitimate, might just be from a similar model phone or maybe they all vary (my battery has a bit of a crook in the right side)

I've seen fake ones that say "SVMSUNG" and look the same, but yours looks original, how much was it? if it was less than $10 I don't think it's original D:

AW: Is my battery original or fake?

Original but right battery is earlyer manufactured you can see it on date and serial nr. So its the old layout on the right battery left has new layout.
