Summary: Terrible Battery
Review: I am in agreement that this battery is terrible! I thought that I had done something wrong in my charging of the battery, but after reading all of these terrible reviews I realize that these are defective batteries. I like the phone, but the battery has made using the phone an unenjoyable experience. I say all the customers who purchased these batteries were shafted by Motorola because they are no longer making this line because they knew they were [junky].

Summary: horrible quality
Review: I got the T 193 because it was the free phone. My brother hasnt had any trouble with his battery. Mine has been a problem since I have owned it. Now they have discontinued this phone at T Mobile and so I am stuck buying these horrible batteries until I can get a new phone.

Summary: You Get What You Pay For!
Review: I got this phone/battery free from T-Mobile. As with most of the other reviews, its the worst. I'm now at the point where the battery won't charge, let alone stay charged! They are sending me my 2nd new battery. The 1st one they sent me wouldn't work at all.
As someone else mentioned, I can't wait until my contract is up so I can get a new phone.....and for some reason Motorola isn't even making this phone anymore! Maybe that's why T-Mobile was giving it away as a freebie!

Summary: Does Not Hold Charge
Review: I recently purchased the T193 phone. The battery worked well for about 6 months. Within the last month the battery has been not holding its charge at all. I would plug the phone in at night before I went to bed and when I woke up it would say it had a full battery. I would then make a 30 minute phone call and the battery would say it had only one line left? I just had to order another battery because the battery wont even power up the phone anymore. I am very upset that motorola would put out a battery that did this. I am on the other hand very pleased with the T193

Summary: You're all doing it wrong
Review: I've had this battery in my T193 for a year now, and it's just started to wear out. (I get about an hour of talk/surf time instead of 1.5) Did you not hear the salesperson say "Don't leave it plugged in, and don't use the car charger too much?" Both of these degrade battery performance and longevity. Take care of you battery and it will take care fo you.

Summary: T193-Stinkin Battery
Review: This phone is horrible. It takes 4 hrs. for a fill charge, and it goes dead in an hour and a half. I can't wait till my contract is up, so I can get a new model phone. Thanks alot, Motorola.

Summary: Motorola T193 Cell Phone Battery
Review: When I first received my Motorola T193 I was pleased with how lightweight it was. The first night I had the phone I charged it overnight like you are supposed to. Then I let the battery die and charged it overnight again. For the first month I had no problems with it. Then I started noticing that the battery would just die at random times. One minute it would tell me I had full battery life and then I'd go to make a phone call and it would die on me. When I'd turn it back on it would tell me I only had 1 bar of battery life or no bars at all. I am very disappointed with this battery and it has affected my opinion of the phone as well.
