I have gotten my seidio 2600 extended battery and WOW!! goodmorning all..well like the title says I got my extended battery friday and this is a godsend if you ask me.it has been lasting me all day without having to charge it till the late evening,and this is with moderate to heavy usage.took it off the charger this morning at 4:45 and have been doing light browsing,watched 2 youtube videos,deleted a couple of apps,texting some and typing this.so far I'm at 100% still.seidio says after 5 or 6 charges it gets better and so far it seems they are right.last night was my 3rd charge since friday evening.now they say the first initial charge should be 8 hours,so its probably better to do it at night when you are in slumber.now the added thickness will take some getting used to but you will welcome the added battery power over the look of it.it also is more comfortable when texting.and if your a heavy texter as I am you will welcome the added thickness as well.to me it seems that I am free now cause I was always hesitant to use it heavily if I didn't have a charger around and I hated it.but now I can use it without worries.sorry to ramble on and on but there not one thing negative to say about this battery.sadly seidio has issued a statement that they will not be making a compatible back cover for the touchstone but it does not bother me.I am fine with it as is.but for a more thorough review with pics MannyZ28 has a post over at Precentral titled "My rather detailed review of the seidio 2600 battery and extended leather case".his post was the reason I got it and it helped.so check it out if you are thinking about getting an extended battery for the awesome palm pre....thanx. |
