I think the reason people continue to talk about this is that there has been exactly one attempt measure these claims of greater capacity in exactly the same form factor battery scientifically. Argue with his scientific method all you want but he is using inexpensive equipment and trying to provide the best info he can. I also find it interesting that the oem name brand batteries always seem to be closee to the rated capacity Using his testing methodology when the others don't.

Doesn't it seem logical that if a Hong Kong manufacturer could so easily fit 1750 milliamps into the same space as 1300 that the Taiwanese company who builds millions of these phones could too? It would also seem to be in their best interest to do so, to stop this type of complaints before they begin...

myself being somewhat of a cynic, and having seen knock offs of every conceivable product from gucci handbags to rolex watches coming out of Hong Kong, i have no problem believing that they would lie to sell more batteries.

The only "proof" I have seen of their capacity being higher is anecdotal, from people who have purchased them. Myself I am using aTP2 battery, but of course I have spent the last few days doing every battery life tweak I could find before changing batteries, which, Im sure skews the results greatly in the favor of the new battery.

So if you want to believe that the Seido battery somehow crams more milliamps into the same space, more power to you, but until I see another scientific, psuedo or not, study, i will believe the one out there now...

Sorry about the typos,I am new to swype...
