Samsung Original Battery for Galaxy S4 Mini i9192 i9190 (Bulk Packaging)

Took about a week to get here. Just put it in my old phone. Was at 43% most battery's don't have full charge when ordering them. Gave 4 stars 🌟 because didn't have it long at all. I'll wit a week and edit this post. Might go up or down. I'll let you know.

I was very pleased with the battery. It was exactly as described. The review got 4 stars only because the battery was sold as part of a kit that included tools to remove the back of the tablet and to remove the old and install the new battery. The tool kit was basically worthless (only the mini-screwdrivers worked). The spudger tool and the "guitar picks" which were supposed to help remove the back were made of plastic and quickly became chewed up when the back was difficult to remove. I finally had to go to a cell phone/tablet repair place and they quickly removed the back. If you can remove the back on your tablet this battery is perfect.

The battery is the exact match to the original one in my Samsung Galaxy Mini 4 cell phone

i have disappointment with this product, i thought it would be shipped faster but it was 4 months before i received the product plus the pandemic. battery doesn't have a power and i thought it was damage and i try to charge but it doesn't have power i try to use other device same problem, then i used my diy batteries to charged and it worked. then after a month used it when i forgot to charge it same problem faced, at would only takes 72 hours battery life without using.

Transaction went fine. And battery was a good fit and is working fine so far. My guess is that its not really a "Samsung" battery, even though it's assembled in Korea (but who knows), but I'm not using it without the charger cord, so I don't care how long the charge lasts. This is why I did not rate the battery life.FYI - I use an old Samsung S4 Mini cell phone as a WiFi web cam! The web cam app consumes a lot of power so the phone runs hot. This causes the battery to fail in about a year or so. So I bought this replacement battery for it. Anyway, I'm back in business. Oh... I also got a big heat sink to strap on the battery to keep it as cool as possible.....it then mounts on a tri-pod. We will see how much longer it lasts with the heat sink.Photo shows the phone mounted on a tri-pod with the battery and heatsink strapped to the side.....

My phone is the galaxy s4 mini.My old battery was using up to 10% of a charge per hour while off and barely lasted through an 8 hour shift (8% by the time I left) so I figured I would try a new battery before going after a replacement phone. I was not expecting much based on the other reviews but this battery blew my expectations out of the water.Everything was an improvement from my last battery - drains about 3% while off with wifi on, doesn't run hot like my last battery, and lasts about 10 hours of non-stop reddit browsing (I've gotten 30 hours out of it with light use).My only con is that it takes about 2x as long to charge (40 min -> 1-2 hours) but for lasting up to 3x as long it's a small price to pay.A more recent note is that google maps navigation has stopped working since using this battery (i can still lookup directions but start navigation crashes the app everytime). I am not sure if it's because my galaxy s4 mini is just too outdated or if the battery is causing it - just something I figure I would include. I had not used maps for a good 6 months before getting this battery so I assume the outdated software/hardware is the problem.

Worked great for 9 or 10 months, then began losing charge quickly. Excellent replacement battery if you want something cheap to keep your phone going for another few months before getting a replacement. Or if you want to sell your phone on-line listed as having a new battery - it will last long enough that whoever buys it won't be able to give you negative feedback after the battery craps out.The short lifespan is disappointing - this phone is rather lightly used in general, so it has not gone through hundreds of recharge cycles.Of course, your mileage may vary, and perhaps I got a battery whose performance does not represent the rest.

The new battery is fine. It turns out that the original battery wasn't the problem. The new battery didn't last any longer than the old. The root of the problem was the software running in the background needed to be stopped so that I could get at least 1 day of use out of an overnight charge. After installing the new battery and having the same experience with the phone not keeping it's charge for at least 18 hours during the day I started probing deeper and discovered all the software from apps I had downloaded were running and consuming power. I either stopped them from running or removed them and the problem cleared.
