Why are non OEM (fake) phone batteries bad?

152 views

If the battery’s capacity is true as the listing says then why is it bad if I replace a 2-3 year old flagship’s battery with a fake one? How is it worse than having an old OEM battery that doesn’t even last the whole day? Apart from this it is nearly impossible to get the original battery for a lot of phones anyways..

And you may say that it would damage your phone, well how often does that even happen?

The only issue with non-OEM batteries is that you typically don’t know anything about the vendor and their quality standards. It’s fairly easy to buy a replacement that wears out quicker or doesn’t have as much capacity as the OEM one. However, they usually work well enough and tend to be inexpensive, so they are arguably often still worth it.
