Reminds me of those gizmos you plug into your cigarette lighter that are supposed to double your gas mileage. :)

But hey, it's a "Business Battery" so it's probably legit. :D

Here's a clue. When you get it weigh it on a gram scale. See how much difference there is between it and the stock battery. That will likely approximate it's actual capacity. Good luck.

That seems bizarre even in the world of battery scams. You think a Chinese company is putting "Made in Japan" on the battery, or is a Japanese company putting Chinese characters on it? Obviously it can fool Westerners, but it seems like a really, really dumb mistake.

i was doing research on this battery for last couple days as well, then i came to a couple threads with people ripping off that "gold label".. and it says something like 900mAh.

I mean if its truly 2430mAh that's great, but i ended up getting the Chichitec 1900mAh battery because of reputable reviews. Just a heads up. If you guys google for 2430 Gold Battery, there are threads about it

Some Chinese and Japanese characters are very similar or the same.

That said, regardless of what is printed on the battery, this still seems like its too good to be true.

Unless HTC used junk cells on their OEM batteries and these batteries are top of the cells its highly doubtful that a no-name battery will have a >55% increase in capacity without any physical size increase.

Totally agree. That 2430 mah stamped on it is the biggest warning sign of all. It's got scam written all over it.

Went through some of the feedback regarding this battery, several stated it was tested at only 1200-1300mAh..

This is my biggest worry about no-name batteries. Even if I didn't get the capacity as advertise, but got something very close to the OEM capacity I would call it a draw.

Buying something that is advertise as >OEM, and then to only find out in reality its closer to 60% of OEM capacity sucks.

Knowing me, if I was really drawn in, by either clever marketing, a fancy site, or unverified reviews I would try to convince myself that it was performing better than it was. 'Optimizing' my usage pattern for the battery...:mad:

Yes Chinese only has ieroglyphs, while Japanese has ieroglyphs and kana (kidn of alphabet)

but font-types are very different. The bettery has japanese characters on it but printed using Chinese fonts, which Japanese will never do. Also the gold embalation is very suspisious. usually it is just black.
Further more, cell betteries even for Japanese phones are rarely made in Japan. most of them come from abroad.

    So how does it work for you?

    I bought probably the same "Gold" one (although mine says 2450 mAh) and I'm using it for 2 days on HTC DoubleShot (details HERE)
    Compared to my original stock battery it certainly is of larger capacity and after second charge it got me thru whole day with more than my usual usage (again - more details in the thread linked above).

    If you don't mind to chime-in and add your opinion or thoughts to our thread it would be very apreciated, because as of this moment I am the only one trying this battery on our phones (the HTC DoubleShot aka T-Mobile MyTouch 4G Slide) and the more the merrier...
    TIA! :)

    I have used that for about a week, and I was concerning about whether the battery is real or fake... The reason I say that because the battery I bought seems to have around 1200 mAh :(

    I have searched that in ebay, and I found 2 'types' of this Gold 2430 mAh battery. Among these 2 'types', they look alike, but some details doesn't. Have a look at the following picture



    From the above picture, you can see the difference
    Well... may be you will say it's juz becoz of the picture compression, but if you look further, other than the fonts of the 'Sen sation' was bold, the letter "G" in the word "Gold battery" in these 2 batteries are not the same!

    To summarize, these 2 batteries have the following differences:
    1) Battery Title 'Sensation' Bold?
    2) The stickers of the battery? (the covering part at the top of the battery)
    3) Different Fonts??

    To conclude, I think either one of the is fake, and the other one is real...

    The one I bought is the right one: (tested, and it has a low capacity)
    link: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/GOLD-243...ccessories&hash=item33742ac576#ht_2143wt_1420

    The left one is: (I didn't buy this)
    link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2430MAH-H...ltDomain_3&hash=item2eb6335e16#ht_2266wt_1139

    So, remember to check if its real or not before you buy~
