Will this battery work?

[RGB17]

Hi, got a green lens defy running CM10.
Would this 1700mAh battery work in it. (can't seem to find a UK based supplier for an original HF5X 1700mAh battery )
Figured I may as well get the higher capacity one as a replacement for my dead one.
Are all HF5X batteries the same regardless of phone model stated.
Thanks

Yes it work but you maybe need to install a batt patch.

Got from ebay ,might even be the same supplier as the amazon one in first post. (slick.dealz - TheSlickZone?)
Compared to my worn out old battery this one last ages.

Keep in mind that 'fake'/non-standard batteries may go haywire and die unexpectedly and/or kill your device as their protective circuits tend to be cheap.

Personally, I would also avoid buying no name batteries. I'd rather charge my phone more often than to see my defy burning. Sometimes its already difficult to get the defy+ battery work in the defy.

Is the one OP posted definitely a fake? I want to buy original but can't find any here in the UK

I don't think so, but if you want extended battery you can try HF5X.

In the mean time I have ordered this Momax battery

Apparently they're a little better than cheaper knock-offs from ebay. Hope it works well. My current battery has been with me for 2.5 years so it's time for replacement!!

Thought I'd let you all know the battery I got from ebay that I posted earlier in this thread as been working super, no problems whatsoever.
Seems a genuine motorola to me.
