Anyone tested X50v's regular and extended battery?

[Rambler358]

Has there been any tests done to see how much longer the extended battery lasts over the standard battery? Assuming you don't mind the extra buldge the extended battery provides, is it worth getting?

I haven't done any official timed testing or anything, but find that my extended battery lasts twice as long as the regular battery. I have found it most useful to leave the regular battery in the cradle charger so that it is ready to be used as a backup when it comes time to charge my extended battery. That is all I rely on the standard battery for. I then replace it with the recharged extended battery even if it hasn't run down completely.

I'm the opposite. Since I carry mine in my front slacks pocket all the time I prefer the slimmer battery and usually carry the high capacity one in my briefcase in case I get into lengthy surfing using bluetooth to my phone or wifi to a hotspot. I agree with the extended battery lasting approximately twice as long. CUZ
