Be careful, although the package and the hologram seems to be original, it isn't, the original battery is 6 grams heavier, I used it in my e71 and the battery drains in about 6 hours. DONT BUY.

I was very dissapointed with the Battery I recently purchased. The price was good, the delivery was good, the battery sucked. The battery would not hold a charge, it would go dead after six hours of no use after a full charge is indicated. This is the first time I have had to return something I purchased through Amazon. By the way,I havent recived a conformation of reciept of return or refund.

The battery that I ordered was listed as new, when I recieved it, It was a used battery that would not take any charge. They insisted that it was new. But it was not. It was scratched from use.

I got my battery via expedited shipping. It arrived as promised, but was loose in a USPS Priority Mail envelope--no packaging at all, although a clear plastic sleeve was open in the same envelope. It charged OK, but I'm not really sure it was new.

I disappointed.I have a Li-ion battery that much more better.I asked to seller before order. They said that this is an original product. It isn't true...It seems as original but I think it isn't original.Cheap but waste.

The battery does not work right, It eiter always shows battery full or low battery, the intermediate battery levels are never seen on the cell phone. I would rate the supplier low for selling faulty products.

I ordered a "sold and shipped by Amazon" BP-4L, expecting it to be genuine. Its 100% fake Nokia, its ligher than the original and the hologram does not pass the "Nokia Hologram test". It came in a small plastic bag.

ok item, not oem is a copy of one and not as well as the original and doesnt hold a charge as long as original

Feb 2011: 8-month heavy usage update
Continues to work flawlessly, phone holds charge through an hour of conversations, an hour of streamed music and an hour of GPS usage daily. I have a charger in the car, but never drop below half in a day's worth of heavy use, so I usually just charge overnight (or in the car the next morning!)

Original Review, unchanged (June 2010):
After reasonably heavy use over 15-16 months, my Nokia 6650 started behaving erratically, rebooting spontaneously and indicating low battery seconds after being put into use! This prompted me me to start planning a phone upgrade. Being ineligible for a contract extension upgrade meant that I would be looking for a new phone, unlocked, at a rather substantial cost. I decided to give this reasonably priced retail Nokia BL-4L battery a whirl first, based on the reviews, and was thrilled when it gave my phone a new lease of life!

Standby and usage times (with 3G browsing, music streaming etc for 1-2 hours, GPS with Nokia Maps or Google Maps for at least 45 minutes per day and 60-90 minutes of phone conversations) are back to their impressive, original levels. The battery indicator is barely a bar or two down (from 7) by evening, and I only bother to charge it about 3 to 4 times a week! On those weekends when I barely use the phone, it loses a bar of indicated charge, if that, over a day and a half.

Perfectly packaged, promptly shipped - well done, A1 Accessories!

I suspect this battery is not new. If it is then it's defective. I'd bet this was a refurbished battery. This battery best performance equaled the performance of my original battery after I had it about a year. At best, it performed OK but nothing like a new battery. BTW - I purchased this battery in Aug 2011, I'm again looking to purchase it's replacement because one again, I find myself having to charge it on average twice per day.
I will say I received the battery quickly. Kudos to the seller for that.
