compared to the stock 950mah on x30s. my 950 lasts like 45 minutes with games, so i'm looking to buying another battery. I found that 1700mah batteries are extremely cheap on ebay, like 20cad shipped.

are these ones like scams? as in are their life a lot higher than the 950 ones?

Last week I received one I ordered off of eBay. Granted, I haven't had it very long but so far I'm quite pleased. Playing games, music or videos hardly effects the battery, while my old battery had about the same lifespan that you describe.

For the price I paid (about $15.00US or so), you can't really go wrong!

There was a recent thread about a battery from Ebay that doesn't fit:

how long approximatly does the battery last?

gaming? music? regular use?

also, did yours look like that one posted in the above user's link? i think those cheap ones i've looked at are those, which apparantly don't fit the x30h.

The battery I have appears to be exactly the same as the one in the previous post. Mine fits fine, however. For something that cheap, it's probably luck of the draw. Scary.

As far as battery life, I can't say just yet. I haven't had the time to use up the battery between recharges yet. I'll try to do that this week and get back to you.
