Spare Battery

My girlfriend has an Optimus M Plus, and I'm looking to find a spare battery for her, but I'm having no luck finding one for that specific model. Do all LG Optimus' have the same battery?

No the battery for the M+ is different. I've been looking for a spare as well, but so far they only seem to be available at MetroPCS @$40. I'm sure the aftermarket will catch up eventually, it may just take a while since the phone was only released a month or so ago.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm gonna wait , too (40 bucks for a battery?! - these companies have some nerve).

You get what you pay for. If you want an aftermarket battery that won't explode, get too hot, or that holds a charge like the stock battery, you would be better off going to Vegas.

I would agree with you if the battery was 15 or even 20 dollars. Forty dollars is absolutely ludicrous, plain and simple.
That's not a matter of 'getting your money's worth' - that's a matter of getting ripped off.
