The Right Stuff - SUCH a relief to have found this item at last.Have a look through this short checklist:1) Your phone originally came fitted with a Ni-Cd or Nokia BMC-3 Ni-MH battery (like the one being reviewed here).2) The original battery wore out (maybe more than once) and you eventually bought a Nokia BLC-2 Li-Ion battery to replace it.3) The BLC-2 doesn t seem to charge properly - it only charges for about an hour at the most before shutting off, and if you are lucky, it may last 2 days in standby before you have to recharge it.Does this all sound familiar to you?Although the new Li-Ion batteries are an exact physical fit for the phone, some phones are so old that they don t know how to charge a Li-Ion battery, hence the poor performance even with a brand new, genuine, original Nokia BLC-2. This battery, the older Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) version, is the CORRECT version for your phone. Since buying this and running it through a few charge/discharge cycles I m now getting around 5-6 days and nights of standby from my Nokia 3330 again, the same performance it had when it was new in 2001. Thanks Fonem8, I never thought I d find one of these again.
It does the job! - Ok, it s dull to review a battery but I was happy with my prehistoric phone and didn t want to shell out for something not as good and for gadgets I didn t need.This battery was an answer to a prayer, slotted straight in and has been working well for 8 months now.What more could you ask for?
