These have been floating around for a while. Someone wrote that they peeled the label off and found the old stock label under it. You get what you pay for. I have bought cheap from Amazon only to disappoint, then I got one from Seidio (sp?) worked great. Get one from a reputable dealer.
Never use Chinese battery and all for high end handsets...mm please don't take change they are fooling people...how come it will give 3 time power with same size...mm use commonsense

The 4500mAh battery is legit. It much thicker and comes with a replacement door and actually makes the phone last a whole day, the Z10 is pretty much useless without it if you actually use the phone off of wifi and do more than just email. I agree if its the same size and triple the power, use common sense.
Don't discharge it fully!! Li-ion batteries shouldn't be fully drained unless if it needs to be recalibrated. Just charge it for 8 hours without using it. Best to switch off the phone and charge it for 8 hours. But please do report back with findings. Very curious about the battery life. The gold battery for the Z10 has been found to be a fake and is just the same 1800mAh but with a gold wrapper. Beware folks!

I've tested it and it certainly lasts more than the issue LS1 - on average 36 hrs with medium use
IF you have one of these "super batteries" that is the same physical size weigh it and the stock battery on a postal scale (that should be sensitive enough.)
There is no way around the mass of the reactants in the battery shell; to get more capacity you need more reactants. They have mass.
If the "higher capacity" isn't of higher mass, it's not of higher capacity.

No need to do that with the larger of the two bats. It most definitely is heavier when you hold them.
Ok, the result is in.... I downloaded the Battery Guru last night before I charged my Z10 using the Vizz battery. I charged it around midnight (Indonesian GMT +7 time). And then this morning around 9:30 AM I unplugged it. The wifi was still on for about 1 hour. After that I turned off the wifi. And using the 3.5 G data (HSDPA). I was using some apps like Blaq, BBM, Whatsapp the whole day. And now at 4:30 pm the battery is at 14%. I will attach the pictures of the Battery Guru chart. So is it a good result? For me I can't say it's really that great, but it does add a few more hours than the stock battery. That's my opinion though. Some may agree with me, some may not. Hahaha.

This is for the 3600mah and not the 4500mah right?
Hendrali that seems pretty bad for a 3600mAh battery. That is supposed to have twice the battery if the stock 1800mAh battery. But judging from those results, it seems you have been conned. I have the stock battery and mine lasts a lot longer than that. To be fair, our usages may differ and there are other factors like cell reception and all to take into account, but I'd go so far to say the battery you bought is just a normal stock battery with a different wrapper. Here are my readings till now.

Hmm interesting. Well like you said maybe our usages are different. Here in Indonesia the cell reception is not as stable as in the US or other foreign countries. But yeah maybe it is just a stock battery with a different wrapper. Who knows hahaha....
Yeah that is very likely. I'm mostly on H+ and sometimes on 4G. I'm living in Singapore and the 4G in StarHub is not that mature yet, but mostly stable. Cell reception makes a lot of difference to battery life in my opinion.
Wait isn't it recommended to let it die first when you open it then charge it up all the way?
Could of sworn that was with old batteries, theres a video about it here:
Old batteries used to be nickel where it was necessary, pretty sure with lithium its no problem
