Is this a genuine DELL battery or manufactured by another brand/company?

I think it is manufactured by another company. I've been pleased with it so far. Couldn't find one on the Dell website for my model and service tag # so took a chance with this one.

No, it was not an actual Dell Battery - it is obviously refurbished, as it will only last a few hours without being plugged in.

It looks to me like a Dell Product. I've been using it in my laptop and I can't see any difference between the old and new battery.

No. It is not a Dell battery!! No Dell warranty! I will not get it from this seller and the battery is not what it claimed to be. I requested a return/refund, but no response from the seller! The bettery didn't last 2 hours when I first got it, and it reduced to only a few mins of use without charging in a month.

I don't know, my problem is apparently not the battery but a flaw in the circuitry that should uses power but notifies me that the battery is low. The new battery didn't change anything and after talking to Dell I resolved to never buy another Dell product.

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 E1505 notebook and purchased that battery. I recieved it yesterday and it's working - so it's compatible. It's the same as my original battery. the difference is that on my original is written that it's made in Korea but on that one here it's written that the parts are made in Korea but is't assembled in China.

The one that I had received was not a Dell OEM battery. It did not have any dell markings on it. I get about 3 or so hours on the battery, but I'm usually running Autocad for the majority of that time. I haven't done any official measurements of time - that's just a ballpark guess.

I have the same computer and i bought this battery. It worked well for about a month and then crash, the computer stop recogniizing it. I end up buying the original from Dell and although was a little more expensive I did not have any problem since then.

Although it says "Genuine Original" in the description, mine is made of cheaper materials, the rubber strap is already torn, and after 3 months of use it will no longer charge. I don't believe that these are actual Dell adapters, but in fact cheap imitations. I have attempted to contact the seller several times, but I have not received a response. Apparently they are more interested in selling products, than taking care of their customers. I contacted Dell, but since it was purchased through Amazon, they will not honor any warranty.

Yes it is. Popped the old Dell original battery (about three or four years old) and popped in this one. Just be aware that this battery (9 cell) is larger, depth wise, than the original (6 cell). So, your computer sits up about a half inch in the back. Others mentioned that if one is concerned about the laptop depth being exactly flat, this adds an extra 1/2" of depth. I like it because it allows for better air flow and I notice that the fan runs less, so less noise and less heat build-up. I very much like the extra charging capacity. If you do the charge - discharge to 7% - recharge cycle three times the resultant battery life is a few hours (depending on usage) rather than a couple of hours (depending on usage) with the OEM battery. In short (or a little long) I'd buy another one in an instant if I needed one. Way less than Dell wants for a six cell.

I purchased this battery for my Dell laptop and it came with all the same Dell logos and marks as the original. It has been working great even was recognized by the OS as a new battery and reset the annoying pop-up about the life of the battery has ended blah blah blah.

The message I got from the computer was Battery not recognized, The advice was try a genuine Dell battery, or replace the motherboard.

I too questioned the battery. I talked with the seller and they assured me they would refund if it did not. It works just fine with my Dell Studio 17.

I am not convinced. All the markings appear Dell, but It just doesn't charge. I then bought a battery from Dell that works great. Can't know for sure, but this one may not be legit.
