My battery was fine around 86% but i did ordered one a few months ago.
It was a LOSONCOER which claimed to be around 3800mah.I thought it was a scam but it was cheap and it should be at least 3300 if not 3800mah.
I installed it 4 days ago and the results amazed me.IT is 3800mah and more. Accubattery says 4000mah but i also see it in the SOT.
Its much better.No temperature sensor though.It keeps saying 25.1 Celsius.
Some early screenshots below.
Nice! Mine is at 81%, I guess its time to replace the battery. Can you link to the one you bought please?

How do you open up the phone?

Update :The battery was empty when it was at 30%,
so it needs calibration.
From what I have seen its the same as the original, but not more.
The accubattery app shows every time different results so I cannot trust it.
Will post back after calibration so I can have rock solid results.
Don't buy it yet.

Update: Though my mechanic said he changed the charging port to fix the issue but i believe he didn't change anything. Somehow he managed to fix the phone. I think he might took out the battery temp. sensor and thus it fixed the charging issue.

if you find the solution tell me, but I got the same issue on my OP3, I did the calibration process many time, even the root-one-click-calibration. Nothing. I recycle the ''new'' battery, seller wont refund me.

Got the polarcell, since then, all good.

OnePlus tool and accubattery both are saying 91% on mine. Accubattery first said 89% until a few cycles it settled on 91%.

I'm getting very good battery life, a couple hours more screen on time than my pixel XL which had 96% health on accubattery.

Hopefully this battery holds out for a while. My previous op5 that got ruined in saltwater I replaced the original battery at 83% even though it was still working decent (changed same time as the charging port (dash charging died) and the "new" OEM OnePlus battery was only at 87% health. It basically worked the same as the 1.5 year old battery.

Luckily my used eBay OnePlus 5 seems to have been used very little.

Unfortunately i checked my order history and it says its not anymore available (This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.)

Maybe try and find the original one from Oneplus or Ebay and Aliexpress.
