battery: Does anyone know of the first batch of red, black and white Acers also come with the 5800 mAh battery?

I am even wondering: was this mess with the batteries intended to attract customers anxious to receive "unadvertised" bigger batteries just to boost initial sales? I am sorry for those who are now starting to receive the "standard" 4400 mAh battery. But I want to comfort you: even while I have the bigger 5800 mAh one, it seems almost impossible to me to drain even 60% of it in a real life student usage. I never carry an ac adapter with me anymore because I consistently get at least 5 min. per every 1% of battery power I have, with wifi turned on and on 60% of brightness. When wifi is occasionally off, it comes up to more than 6 min. per 1%. So, even if you will get 75% of this, it will still carry you through the whole day of classes and an evening in a starbucks. Anyways, I would not trade acer for asus even if I got smaller battery, because acer has unparalleled screen in terms of clarity and brightness.

Yes, the one that I ordered and received was the original battery and it still works just fine. FYI, I purchased two tablets from Newegg and before they year warranty was up on the tablets the battery went bad on one of the tablets. I called Newegg and they referred me to Toshiba. Needless to say they were a JOKE! They wanted to place a credit hold of a $170 on my credit card to send me a replacement battery. I didn't do that and I believe I purchased the battery on Amazon for like $30. Thought you would like to know.

Mike S...did you actually receive Red Lithium batteries, or the older lithium ion batteries?

Im not aure about it since only the "5250" Its listed on the description, if i were you, i would try with this one, which is fully compatible: http://www.amazon.com/Battpit-Notebook-Battery-Replacement-5250-BZ853/dp/B007EN9FYS/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1427315218&sr=1-2&keywords=Battery+acer+5250-BZ853

I wouldn't use it if it were me. The only way I would use it would be if Acer personnel told me *directly* that it was made by them and had been confirmed by them to be compatible with the laptop. I say that because I suspect that what you got isn't an Acer at all, but a copycat.I got a copycat when I ordered a battery for my Acer laptop on Amazon. It didn't damage my laptop, but when it's installed it won't take a charge - period!

You can't tell if they are a good deal or not unless you understand the capacity of the battery (usually measured in milliamp hours. AKA Mah). Unfortunatly, Amazon doesn't understand this because most of the specs don't list this peramiter.

I honestly don't know...when I ordered this, I searched for my ASUS specifically by battery description on the purchase receipt. Sorry!

I really LOVE the laptop, I used to own the Asus F6Ve, and it's so powerful but with many heating problem, add on that the battery.The UL 30A-X5 is light, fast, amazing lookin, HOWEVER I seem to be attracted towards the battery statement of 12+? I'm fine with 10 hours though, which seems to be on the sticker on the screen when I first got it, but I want to confirm this issue with other owners/users.So, ElieenHow long does your battery last? it would be really nice if can share, please.thanks for the fast response

I'm so sorry I didn't respond earlier. I don't know how to answer your question. The battery came without any instructions. But it works great for my little Acer (4-5 hours battery life).

They would fit. However, as of now, Acer did not came out with a battery .... there are some 5600 and 5200 mah out there (see notebookreview forums for links), but it is believed to be non OEM. And the price is around 85 to 110$.

No. I got one for my AO722 and the slots do not match up with the tabs on the netbook battery slot. I suspect that there are no cheap aftermarket batteries that will work. I ended up getting a 5500 mAH external battery.

I bought that particular battery for a Gateway laptop though, at the same time as I bought one for my ACER aspire, so I got confused between the two.

Hyperion does sell a white case with the 7000 mah battery, not sure if it can be bought separately. ZeroLemon do sell their 7000mah tpu cases separately and it fits perfectly. They have black, white, blue, and red.

I am in the same boat here. I just want to get the 5800mah battery regardless of color because they all look beautiful. Can anyone advise how I can get this battery if I make the purchase? Thanks.

I know. I'm waiting on two pre-orders: one with Amazon and another with Buy.com. Neither seem to know when the 6-cells will be available. I've even called MSI Internat'l, directly. I've left several messages and haven't heard a thing. I may end up purchasing the new ASUS version of MSI Wind. Try calling your MSI branch.

This is the battery I bought: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName;=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item;=320328527874It's a 7200 mAH. My experience with it's been pretty good, though I don't use it all the time. When I looked I had an estimated 7.5 hours with it, with wifi on and brightness down maybe half or so. I took awhile to arrive from the seller, about 3 or so weeks, but that's because it was coming from China so I expected it.

I wasn't sure so I checked some sites. Yes, they both use the same battery. This is actually the second one I bought. I have two acer laptops. I have had great service from the battery so far. Also, I saw some batteries priced at 50.00 and higher, so for 8 bucks or so, you can't go wrong.
