No problem. Just as an update and for the benefit of anyone looking for more info on fake batteries, I actually have four original Samsung S7 batteries from a mix of suppliers (SDI, Amperex, maybe one other?) and they all weigh 41 grams on my scale. I had a fake that weighed 39 grams.

Another thing you can check is to use a barcode scanner app and check the barcode to make sure it matches what's printed on the battery *and* that it decodes to something in the proper format. The genuine battery's barcode should decode to a Samsung part number (which should be correct for the model of the battery) plus the text printed to the left of the barcode, plus some numbers. The barcode on the fake S7 battery decoded to the string "GH43-04575A+DL1H217HS+009488". GH43-04575A is the part number for an S7 Edge battery (obviously wrong) and the text printed on the battery was "DL1H226C5" which didn't match the barcode either.

For a third check, all of the ink on the battery label could be rubbed off with a finger.

The fake battery worked great at first but after two or three weeks it would barely last 12 hours with moderate usage.

Thanks for all the other pointers and it seems that my battery is a real one

I bought this directly from amazon for 12 euro while samsung guided me to a official parts seller that sold the battery for 45 euro so i thought it was worth the risk and glad that it turned out alright.

Only problem i have with the battery is that it looks like it came from a phone because i can see little damages and still see some glue on the back on front from the removed white sticker.

So my S7 Flat, which I bought in October 2016, had started suffering from relatively more poor battery life during the past couple of months. Getting an OEM replacement at the local Samsung Service Center was going to cost me $70.

I tried my luck with a $12 Moxom battery and it's been 2 weeks now where I'm using it and the results have been tremendous. My Screen-on-time is now back to 5+ hours.

I thought I'd share this with you guys and the links as well:
