Summary: Get this battery!
Review: I had the equivalent battery for my old Samsung 3500 and thought it was great. I was not disappointed with this one for the 8500. Standby life is close to a week and it lasts three days even with heavy usage. Unlike many extended-life batteries, it fits in the desktop charger; it was not an afterthought. If I have time, like overnight, I put the phone in the cradle, or I just swap it with the original battery for a day. It's a little bit bigger and heavier, but all of the cases and accessories still work with it. I just don't put it in my shirt pocket with the extended battery; it's a little heavy for that.

Summary: Large, Clumsy and Perfect
Review: This battery is what is, a bigger more powerful battery that adds some bulk to the otherwise slim 8500. I have purchased two of these products and could not be more pleased with them - they are good for about 5 - 7 days of standby time with casual use. I once managed 6 hours of talk time. They charge quickly and fit into the regular charging slot that comes with the phone. In a perfect world there would be unlimited battery time and no need for this product, but until then, this is a necessary accessory of the 8500 that does a great job.

Summary: NOT AS ADVERTISED!
Review: This item was advertised as Extra Capacity but what I received was a standard battery and it will not hold a charge. DO NOT buy anything sold by sellcell110.
