Is this an original battery some reviews seem to suggest that this is not although the packaging seems to indicate that.

The one I received was clearly fake. It didn't come in the OEM packaging, but rather in bubble wrap and tape. Also while the battery appears to be real... if you compare it to the original battery that comes with your phone, you will see that it is much lighter in weight and that there are some minor differences throughout. For example, this fake doesn't include the water damage tamper-proof sticker that is on the original. DO NOT BUY THIS FAKE!!

I question that this is an original battery producted by Samsung, even though it looks like it packaging-wise. I purchased it in November and am returning it to Amazon in January. Although the phone works (except I haven't tested the Near Field function - I don't use that feature), it doesn't charge past about 85%, drains quickly (as other reviewers have noticed). Probably the only was to tell for sure if it is a Samsung produced battery would be to send it to them for their opinion. Compared to two other known Samsung batteries (one came with phone, one with their extra charger kit), this battery doesn't perform well, and won't last a day on a charge.

My wife and I both have S3's and I have purchased this one, plus one direct from Samsung (via a 50% off deal), as spares for each of us. Both are identical. This is an OEM battery.

Yes, mine is marked that way and I have no reason to believe it is not a genuine samsung battery, so it will be a direct replacement as long as your part numbers match

Yes, it is an original Samsung battery and not a generic one. Works exactly the same.

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.

Yes it is. It worked great and there was no discernable difference between the factory battery and the after market one.

Ditto - this is a counterfeit battery. I compared the holograms and they are different and the label looks like it was applied by hand.

It was in its original package. So yes I believe it is the original incase product

I have ordered two of these, separately, over the past month, both from Amazon, not a third party seller, and both were in the correct, original Canon factory packaging. Both were genuine Canon batteries, not knock-offs.

Yes it is. I received it a couple of weeks ago and compared it to the original one that I had and it is the exact same type of battery,just as advertised.

The battery I bought was shown with Nikon packaging and logos. It appears to be Nikon made and no problems.

Yes, it is. For the running time, I can say they are much better than the original 1600mAh battery, one of these 2450mAh batteries last all day most days, love it.

From all appearances it was new, but even my old battery has no external signs of wear. So that is no indication of use. It arrived in a small fitted clear plastic envelope inside the shipping packaging. These may be seconds (failed quality control) hence the low price? My local retailer sells this same battery for over $30 USD.

Yes, it is original. I was skeptical at first, but after careful inspection of the packaging, I realized that it was original product.

Yes, I received an original battery. So far, I've had good luck with the battery life. I've had it for about two months now.

It is in fact the original Nikon battery. I read comments that talked about other people getting a knock off battery. I inquired with Amazon and they assured me it was the battery as shown. It is my understanding that if you click on others listed like buy used for less you will get and after market battery. I'm very happy with my purchase, I hope this helps. Michael
