Hi guys

 

I see these trademe battery kits for iPhone 6S, have anyone tried these, are they any good? It seem they are 1810MAH rather than 1715MAH as well. Thanks guys!!

You'll never know the true mah without specialist testing equipment. 

 

And, given this most likely comes from some unknown chinese factory, you cannot rely on the labelling either.

With apple slashing the battery prices overseas I would see what happens here before rushing into an off brand one for minimal saving and added risk of doing it yourself.

Why bother when you have a year to replace your battery for under $40....? Jeez guys...and its water tightness is guaranteed.
