Okay just to let buyers know, the evolution 3d does not last as long as the anker battery. I have both and used both for a week, I would say theres a 15% difference. If I get the chance ill do a video run down test, but my hypothesis to this is the fact that the Anker produces so much less heat. Its ridiculous how much heat comes out of the OEM batteries

You know, I was thinking exactly the same thing about the heat.

Ive seen the tests where the anker holds around 13% more charge than the htc battery, then I see posts were people get up to 30% longer use out their phone using the anker. After using the anker I can confirm the phone feels a lot cooler during heavy use. These type of batteries discharge quicker if they get too hot, so it makes sense that it should perform better than its capacity compared to the stock battery if it keeps a lot cooler.

Agreed, I wish the OEM batteries were built from the same materials. The over heating causes the battery to burn more when doing every day tasks. Cause I'm sure people by now know that a battery running at 35C will deplete faster than a battery running at 25C. I am looking into the Mugen 3D battery. THe problem I have with the anker is that it messes with my vibration, but no one else seems to have this problem. WHen I say messes with it, the size difference causes the phone to vibrate weirdly.

I have heard reports that the EVO 3d battery runs cooler actually and runs longer, but Im not sure what to think, id say the difference could not be as high as 15%. I have the anker and it runs great, I decided to buy the EVO 3d battery aswell, from a reputable dealer, and ill give it a go and see, im just checking for heat differences.

I dont get how the battery is operating at a high temp ? , when my phone says battery at 35C or more if you take the case off its not the battery thats hot its the phone under the sim and memory card ? is it just me ? :confused:
i think its suggestable that when the phone gets hot its the heavy use thats running the battery down and not the heat as the battery (in my phone anyway) has maybe only changed by a degree or so

i dunno this is just something thats been bugging me whether it is the battery or is the the processor ....

I agree, even when feeling the back of the phone cover when its hot it feels like the heat is mainly lower down the back of the phone than where the battery is positioned. However, If its mainly the processor thats getting hot and not the battery, why does the Anker battery make the phone feel cooler compared to using the stock battery? ...Hmmm, could it be beacuse the Anker battery is metal its acting as a kind of heat sink for the phone? ... keeping it cooler.

this thing is damn confusing me so much... I have to choose between Anker and Eco 3D battery...

I just have a concept that Anker will not give much charge cycles compared to Eco 3D battery
...

what do you guys say? evo 3d or Anker?

I agree with you on this

It is the battery heating up when using an EVO battery. The Anker does run cooler for some reason. The Anker does not report temperature, the EVO battery does however. The Anker is actually a 1700mah and the EVO is supposed to be a 1730mah but I have not tested it to confirm it. I will probably do this in a couple days to see if it does in fact hold as much as the Anker because I personally prefer OEM to aftermarket when it comes to batteries. Heat or not.

I use the Chichitec battery and it runs great. It does not get nearly as hot as with the original Sensation battery but I know for a fact that it can't go through as many cycles.

I got the two batteries and the charger for $30. I used one battery more frequently and discharged with every new ROM I flashed. I found over time that battery #2 (I labelled them) was not holding a charge as long as #1 which I'd discharged fewer times.

As such, I don't discharge my batteries anymore after reading that these kind of batteries have actually gone through a cycle when it's below 50% and complete discharging is bad for its life. Overall, I get more battery life out of these batteries than the stock batteries.
