It was delivered to me by the expected time. It's been about a few weeks since I started using it, and it worked perfectly. Definitely the battery lasts much longer (before I changed the battery to this product, it lasted less than an hour). There has been no sign of damage or defect in the product as well as no fire or anything like that, indicating that the battery is compatible with my smartphone. So far so good. I am satisfied with the quality and the price is reasonable, too.

I have been struggling with finding a decent replacement battery for my Galaxy S5. The "knockoffs" I have tried have been a total waste of money, lasting only a few hours on each charge despite meticulous "training" I did making sure the first few charges were complete discharges, followed by full 100% charges. My hopes were greater for this "original" Samsung battery, however, the results have also been disappointing. While noticeably better than the knockoffs, I still cannot get a full day out of a charge. I have resorted to utilizing the phone's "power saving" mode almost daily, which improves battery life, but inhibits incoming e-mail and some other apps. My guess is that the new operating system in the S5 might be eating up power, but it's hard to tell. I would be happy to purchase a "real" original battery from Samsung, but they have apparently discontinued manufacturing them. I will struggle along with this phone until my current phone lease is up next April and I can justify buying a new S7. Read full review

I think these batteries have been around a long time! The phone is very old, as phones go, a Galaxy S5, and these batteries are were probably made around the same time the phone was. Their ability to work to their fullest potential has probably come and gone. The one I got worked no better than the one it was replacing. You probably can't get ever a "fresh" battery for this phone again. So I've learned. I just carry a spare charged battery with me, and when the current battery dies, I just switch. Easy enough to continue to use the phone I like and it gets me through the day.

I read a lot about fake Samsung batteries. The only way to know 100% is to take the battery apart which I was not willing to do. However, all of the evidence I could gather points to this being the real thing. The weight of the battery was exactly the same as the old one, and it seems to hold a charge about the same as my other phone with an original battery. I intend to buy this same unit when the battery in my other phone gives out. Update: I have been using this for a year now and still going strong.

Needed a new OEM battery for my S5. My original swelled up and looked dangerous, plus pushed the face off my phone. New battery cured most of this. Might have to open the phone to replace the adhesive strips. But the new battery works great and as it should. Great price point. Not even available locally.
