I am planning to buy either one of the phones which one would you guys suggest
thanks in advance
ATOM!!!!
better CPU, BETTER SCREEN.
great response by the device.
i had KJAM (the same as jammin) it is SLOWW.
go for the atom.
Nadavi.
Atom...
Better Processor. Built-in FM radio.
What more can you ask...
(O.T.) Eten-M600...
do they sell atom in dubai
I was in dubai just last week and the Atom is available at almost all the leading Electronic shops like Jacky's, Jumbo, Plug-in's etc. Couldn't find any accessories for the Atom though since they claim the product was just launched and it would be a while until the accessories started coming in! I think the phone was priced around AED2700! Good price! seriously! Go for it!
i`ll love to have a bigger battery for my S710 and searching with google i found this link and I must say it`s quite appealing ... but it`s for real ?!?
what do you guys think about it ?
later edit:
i have found another link to a 2000mAh battery
Would be nice, but did you see that you have to use a new battery cover which stands out quite a bit! It just looks ugly!
you are right about the look, but 2000mAh vs 1050mAh will be nice to have so you don`t want to charge it every day just be to sure you are not going empty, right ?
Hello. Just bought one (with the cover) very cheaper from ebay (15$ with postage) and I'm very surprising about it. It's big and heavier but it's a good deal to have one if you want to keep your phone on for many days ... I could surf on Wifi, make calls, navigate on Tomtom, hours and hours, days and days, and I don't care anymore for the power. It's a 2200 mAh and it fits very confortably in my jean's pocket. It is not ugly as we think as the phone is already not an ultra design and slim item as the iPhone, an LG or a samsung. So nobody care about it ... ;-)
i think i`ll buy one
I also bought one thru dmc batteries for 6,95 british pounds.
Very curious how it will be
Hi Everyone,
Any one got this already:
http://www.easydevices.co.uk/pp/T-M...OMPACT_IV_OFFICIAL_EXTENDED_LIFE_BATTERY.html
It says: In Stock
Can anyone please share some views about performance (GPS,camera, etc.)?
And, what is the most important, does it significantly improve everyday device life?
Thanks.
ooo nice, though that is alot of money for only 1/3rd increase in power,
hi,
yeah, I personally think the price is horrendous.
that is why I want to check whether it`s worth that price.
For £50 you can get 10x 900mAh batteries plus charger ;-))
actually a 50% increase in battery life. i have the Dianond version - well worth the money in my opinion.
Is there anybody who knows when to buy in Germany?

Ok,
I was waiting long enough now, hoping I will get cheaper one from eBay.
I`ve found only 1 seller offering 1800 mAh with ugly humpy cover, so I`ve decided to go for Expansys original one.
Ordered on 1st of Jan, paid £62 with delivery (bit expensive, but I`ll put it on as the Xmas present for myself ), expecting it tomorrow.
I`ll put some photos probably tomorrow evening and put few words about its performance later on (I need to test it first).
Happy New Year to all!

Expansys runs the business all around the world, I`m sure what they offer in the UK is available in Germany as well.
There you go mate: http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=171125
It is 63.99 Euro + delivery.
Cheers.
If I have the T Mobile version (MDA) and I got the Diamond back cover... would it fit?

Hi,
No, I`m affraid it won`t fit. MDA Compact IV has rounded corners, while Diamond is strict rectangle.
There were a few threads about it already.
Hi,
Got this one from GPSforless
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....name=STRK:MEWNX:IT&viewitem=&salenotsupported
and it fits the MDA Compact and the GPS seems to work.
Will post once I have used it a bit.
Regards
Hi,
Did a Tom Tom test today. Basically Tom Tom running in demo mode, but with a GPS signal (varied from 3 to 6 sats), backlight on auto. GPRS was on and email was downloading every two hours, weather every hour. Got a total of 5.5 hours. Battery percentages for each hour shown below.
1.93%
2.64%
3.55%
4.44%
5.20%
I did a test with the standard battery before and it was about 2.5 hours.
My MDA Compact III used to get only 4.5 hours so with the extended battery the MDA Compact IV is actually better!!
The extra bulk may be an issue for some I suppose, though I will mainly use this battery for GPS use on my bike. The normal battery usually runs okay for me on day to day use of the phone.
Regards

OK, I`ve been using this extended battery for 10 days now.
With 10 texts, 20 minutes of calls a day and 3G switched off it lasts for 3 full days (72h), which I find is very good, compared to 30h on original battery.
The new cover looks very good. It has black/mate finish and has got an ornament (see photos).
My MDA Compact IV is about 3mm thicker and a bit heavier, but it hasn`t lost his sleek and flat look, which was the reason I bought MDA Compact not Daimond. Also, I`ve got a feeling that new size and weight makes it is laying better in my hand.
I had to go for another car holder. First, I though that my Compact with new battery (thicker) will fit into cradle for Touch Pro, but NOT, it was too loose.
So, I`ve bought universal one that will fit from small Nokia to big PDA (can give link to ebay seller, if anyone is interested).
I think the new battery+cover is worth its money.
Cheers.
more photos
here are more photos chaps.
I forgot to add:
It is ORIGINAL HTC extended 1340mAh battery with new back cover, especially for T-Mobile MDA Compact IV.
Very good quality, not cheap HK stuff. And NO AWFUL HUMP!
GPS works OK, absolutely no change compared to the original 900mAh.
No other issues noticed.
I`ll keep you updated when I notice anything.
Very helpful, thanks Tom - I think I might go for this. From where did you purchase the battery/cover? Also, do you have the original HTC pouch - does it still fit inside?
Thanks

Hi,
There are two on-line shops offering these extended capacity batteries:
Easydevices - http://www.easydevices.co.uk/pp/T-M...OMPACT_IV_OFFICIAL_EXTENDED_LIFE_BATTERY.html
Expansys - http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=171125
I went for one with Expansys, it is a bit dearer than Easydevices one, but I found Expansys more trustworthy and besides if you look at "Easydevices Terms & Conditions", you will notice that if you (for some reason) have changed your mind and want to send it back, they will deduct 20% as a "administration charge", so they will refund price minus 20%, which you can calculate yourself easily.
I didn`t know what I`m gonna get buying over the net, in terms of quality and peformance, cos I couldn`t find any opinions, nor feedback.
So in case, I didn`t like it I went for Expansys one, they don`t do such a "small print tricks".
It will fit original pouch, but for me it`s a bit too tight, especially when someone is calling you and you strugling to take it out to answer.
I`m using "temporary" pouch at the moment - it is SonyEricsson`s and still looking for a nice sleek leather one that will fit my new fatty toy.
That looks sleeker than my "hump" back. Although I personally wanted the double capcity so it does not bother me so much.
Regards

Yeah, but there is no photo and it doesn`t even say what kind of backcover is included - with ugly hump or flat?
Is there any one, who went for it, to share some info?
I received mine for my mda C.IV last monday and after a week of use, it was worth every penny. It took a day or 2 to get use to the 3mm addition but i now get 2-3 days use out of my phone between charges were before i barley got 1. Highly advise everyone with battery issues to get one!!!

Just wondering what people thought of the extended battery?
And before anyone asks I know about the 60% efficency of batterys but it has got to the stage now where I need two batteries as my desires is so piss poor!
Just wanted to know if this is a good option or if there is other alternatives?
I'd just get a cheap standard 2nd battery. I was forced to buy one when I was using my HD2, the slim standards are nice for keeping the bulk out of your pockets.
I don't have any problems keeping my Desire going for 36 hours, but then again, nothing is stock on my phone. Rooting and using S-OFF with a new HBOOT table is always an option, works wonders for me.
Thanks but to me it appears quite cheap ??
Is there any other recommendations
Sent from my HTC Desire

Aye they are cheap, and I wouldn't expect much from them, some of the claimed 1600mAh batterys are only ~1100mAh for example. I think on average you will get 30% less juice from it as you would a proper OEM battery, some are much much worse, 50% for example and some slightly better than 20%.
Your best bet is just to buy a few of them and see which one is best. They are cheap enough, but with that said if you are going to spend ~£18 on three knock-off ones, you might as well spend another ~£5 and get an OEM. ^_^
I have no experience with 3rd party batterys with the Desire, I use a Veho Pebble if I know I am not going to be near a charge point for a couple of days, it works for loads of USB gadgets.
Hi,
My touch pro is just over 2 yrs old and the battery life is shot so time for a replacement.
Don't want to buy an extended batt as the TP is thick enough already.
Anyone got any experiences of batts made by Cameron Sino? There seem to be quite a few on ebay at reasonable prices for the 1350mAh type.
I imagine HTC have discontinued their batteries for the TP so ebay ones are likely to be old (even if never used)?
Some guidance on a 'best buy' brand would be great!
Thanks

Still using the OEM, without a hitch (getting at least 48 hours on a single charge). I bought one from cellphoneshop (extended version) and it seems to be no better than my OEM. I have no experience with eBay and truth be told you might be better off with doing a search, than going with eBay (personal preference here).
