Extended Battery

[TGO]

Could not be happier! I bought the extended battery and this is the third day of use. It seemed akward at first (it is thicker and weighs more) BUT I like it much more now,,, it is easier to hold and it even fits in the original case I got from verizon with the accesory pack, I was charging 2 to 3 times a day with the factory battery,,, now even with GPS and surfing the web all day I am struggling to get the batery level down to 10% on one charge a day... I believe with normal to heavy usage I will never have to charge my Ally more than once a day!!!! GOOD news!!! Bring on FroYo!!!

Nice to know as I definitely use my phones heavily...

I'm getting a free extended life battery in a "shut up and no discussing the events of 8/13/2010" bundle I'm getting so I'm glad to know its good

Cool to hear that it still fits in your case. I might have to get one and see if I can still get my $5 eBay case to fit around it.

The "shut my mouth" package is from verizon cause they don't want me running around telling people about some of the stuff that happened yesterday... basically with what was said I could have taken verizon into court for and they decided that its not worth it so they gave me a nice little incentive to not talk about it... too bad for them as soon as I get it I'll be making a post here to explain in detail the mess

Sounds interesting enough. I like that the tossed you a car package to keep lips sealed

Yes, I'd like to hear the details.

I wish we had an aftermarket option for a larger battery that doesn't change the form factor. My battery life is decent, and definitely good enough that I don't want to add the extended battery. I wonder if there is enough demand for Seidio to make an extended battery that fits behind the factory battery cover.

The Ally is a pretty cool phone and although it may not be a super fast Android on steroids like the Droid X... its definately a solid device. If this extended battery is as good as some people say it is, then maybe its worth the investment. I use my phone for heavy web browsing and lots of GPS since I'm on the road a lot (trucker) and after 10-11 hours of use I get home with about 10%-20% battery life. That alone should say a lot about the Ally's 1500 battery... but I can only imagine how well it should perform with 2200. Having that said... I will be purchasing one today and will report my findings to everyone ASAP.
