Battery shorted itself out after 3 days.
I think I already tossed it in the trash, so it's too late to return it. Phone died after 3 days with new battery. Took it to repair shop and they advised me to never buy a battery from Amazon. The reason they are so cheap is that a high percentage are defective. I really don't care about the money. All the heartache this thing gave me was far worse than losing a few dollars. In my own defense, I did look for a more expensive battery, but couldn't find one. Should have kept looking.

Good replacement
Great replacement so far. Was super easy to install once you get the old battery pried out of the phone. I was a little worried at first because after I got the phone put back together, it wouldn’t turn on, even after charging. I did a little research online and found a post about problems with phone not turning on after battery replacement and they suggested you hold down power and home buttons and shake the phone at the same time. Crazy I know but I tried it and it worked. Phone powered right up and has been perfect so far.

Be careful removing the adhesive tabs, go slow.
Battery works great (only in for one day). The instructions were pretty good with one exception the adhesive tabs; the adhesive tabs holding the battery did not come out as shown. With the tabs breaking off when I rolled them is as described in the video, I was left with no instructions (what if this happens). I found some ideas inline but they did not help much. I ended up using the plastic picks and plastic tools to slowly pry the battery out. This was not easy as the adhesive works really well. After I got the battery out the next issue was my fault (make sure you are putting the adhesive tabs on the battery correctly there is no going back). So I ruined the adhesive tabs trying to take the tabs back off. Fortunately I had some double sided tape that I could use. The tape that I had was made for high heat automotive applications so I was comfortable using it. Everything else went as planned and worked well.

great price and better than crappy apple store
great price if you have the 15 minutes and steady hand to remove the cover, screws and battery. replaced it on my mother-in-law's hone and turns on. We missed the $29 apple repair deal that expired in Dec 31st. Apple was fixing their own problems for a charge but NEVER notified its users of the battery problem until class action lawsuit and media attention. stay from apple, let them go downhill and their blind cult followers.

Battery is dead on arrival
I replaced the battery, which was easy. I does come with everything you need. However, when I turned the phone on nothing happened. I then plugged it in and the phone just shows the apple icon then goes black. It alternated in this cycle for over an hour before I tried my old battery and everything is fine and normal. This sucks because I don't have another adhesive strip to use for the old battery. I am extremely disappointed in this purchase and will be returning it.

Great battery replacement
This battery has been working great. The installation was straightforward, especially with their provided YouTube video. When I first turned on the phone there was a noticeable discoloration on the screen down near the bottom (about the size of a dime). I read online that this is probably because the battery is pushing on the screen. So I turned off the phone and opened it up again. I made sure to firmly push the battery down and made sure that it was even and flat. Then I put the screen back on and I was careful not to push too hard when seating the screen (just hard enough to get the sides to click in to place). When I turned the phone back on everything was great and the discolored spot was gone.The battery easily lasts me a full day of usage. I typically stream music all through the work day and now I don't have to charge it during the day.

Proper installation and right battery for your phone is the key! Some tips!
This is a good battery. I think the problems people are running into is removing the battery without damaging the phone and getting the cables back on properly. This double stick tape used on these phones is amazingly strong. It is very difficult removing the old battery. Take your time and roll old tape out. Even then it will probably break. If it does, carefully try and pry battery up with the plastic triangle tools. You should be able to see the broken tape where you can reach in with tool and start rolling it out again. Warming back of phone will help soften tape. The second issue is the cables. I do not remove the face of the phone, these cables can be very difficult to get back on properly and there are 3 connecting the faceplate. Take some painters trim tape and tape the faceplate, after its been opened to a 90 degree angle to the back of phone. This will keep the faceplate from falling back and damaging something. Take something heavy like a couple of books ( a miter box works great), put the faceplate against this and tape it to keep it from closing while you work. One more thing, make sure you have the right battery, for example the iPhone 6 and 6s use different batteries. I hope this helps, sorry I don't have any pictures.

Fast shipping!
First of all I would like to say I recieved my battery very fast. For instance I ordered it yesterday, recieved it today. I didn’t expect it to arrive that soon. It came with everything I needed to install it. It was easy to install the new battery. Taking the old battery out was not so fun. The order also came with a phone ring/stand. I did not expect that so I am thankful for that because I did need one. Overall, I will most defiantly order from this company again.
