Pros: Ehhh its a battery, it works and didnt explode on me!
I had to get a replacement for my w580i because it went through the washer. OEM battery died but phone still worked. Washing and drying cycles!
The battery does what it does states, so I was happy to get my phone back.

Cons: When I first got it it wouldnt work. Turns out its not as tall as the OEM battery so I had to put a piece of paper under the battery so the contacts would touch.
And all the other reviews are right. battery life is not nearly as good as OEM. But I can get it to last 1 day if I try not to listen to music that much.

Other Thoughts: But at the price you pay. Its totally worth it. And mine didnt have the holo sticker, but everything else was exactly the same

Bottomline: Get it if you dont want to buy an expensive OEM replacement.
Hell get 2 and an external charger.

Ownership verified by DX Nice battery for the price

Pros: Works good! Haven't had any troubles with it so far. Nice price

Cons: Not really a con... but it doesn't look like advertised. The one shown in the pictures above has a watermark etc, mine just looks like a sloppy copy. However this doesn't personally affect me, it could be good to know if you are buying it and need it to look authentic.

Other Thoughts: You can check my picture I will be submitting to see how mine looked when I got it.

Bottomline: Cheap, decent battery. Amazing price for a battery so as the others have mentioned it's totally worth it compared to buying an original. The shipping time for me was excellent as well. It took only 5 working days for me to receive it here in Stockholm, Sweden and I'm VERY pleased :)

Pros: I’m using this battery in my Sony Ericsson K850i and it seems to be working well. It’s a nice flush fit with no protrusions on the seal. It looks exactly like the same thing, and works nearly the same

Cons: Like others are saying, the battery life is a little shorter than the original. I’m fetching about 50% to 75% of the original battery. Not bad at all, if you factor in the price. Buying two would completely justify the cost of buying one single official original battery.

Other Thoughts: It would be awesome if they carried an external battery charger

Bottomline: For the price you pay, its pretty good. I recommend buying two for the price as we all know the original battery never seems to last the life of the phone or cell phone contract!

Ownership verified by DX Good battery, doesn't last as long as original tho

Pros: - A good emergency battery, although this doesn't last as long as the battery that you'd get with your SE phone, it still lasts a bit
- Looks quite official with Sony Ericsson watermark (good manufacturer printing!)
- Has no problems fitting my phone..
- Also, great price

Cons: - Doesn't last as long as the original battery. Maybe 2 of these would have the same battery life as one of the original batteries.

Other Thoughts: Candlejack is comi-

Bottomline: This is great, buy a bunch of them and charge them if you're going camping or something.
Then you can put in a spare when the last runs out. Quite efficient
