Battery replacement z5

Johnistaken — Sat, 29 Apr 2017 08:53:47 GMT

Hello all

I purchased a second hand z5 it's in fantastic condition but the battery performance is pretty woeful.

I've gone through the many helpful software suggestions but no joy.

So I've ordered a replacement battery and while looking for it I came across the z5 premium battery, as I'm sure you're aware it has a larger capacity.

How much of a bad idea is it to put the premium battery in the z5?

The connectors look the same and the dimensions are very similar.

Will I fry my phone?

Cheers

it is actually a very bad idea.

1.) the phone was designed to be with that specific capacity, anything smaller or larger might cause short circuits or a note 7 phenomenon.

2.) if you attempt to replace it , you might lose your IP67 water?dust resistance.

so if you would like to change it, just go to your local service center Local support
