Anyone found where to order a spare battery for the 950XL?

[Mark Kaplan]

I've checked everywhere I can think of.

 

[Joe920]

Nope, looks like those are not available yet, at least I also can't find any. Kind of defeats the point of having a removable battery! Evil solution: buy a second 950XL and use its battery until the extended return window closes. (no really, don't do this)

 

[Mark Kaplan]

Anyone find a source yet? Microsoft still doesn't sell them.

Bump

I complain about the same problem, I ended up buying a regular spare battery but from Anker, that works for any phone and charges as usual. But I hope someday I can find it in amazon or somewhere else.

Thanks! I just ordered one from your first link. $45 with 2-4 day shipping to the US.

UPDATE: They canceled my order saying they couldn't ship batteries to the US.

Same thing here. I guess we need some Brits on this forum to hook us up.

Or a US distributor to realize there's a market over here!

Wankers! Same thing here. I guess we need some Brits on this forum to hook us up.

As far as I know, it's prohibited to send batteries via mail here otherwise I would hook you up!

That's what they told me. Royal Mail wont deliver batteries. DHL is the only option at $33 US shipping cost.

Yeah it sucks, they wont ship batteries on there own but it's fine if they are in the product. Hopefully more stores will stock the batteries soon for you.

 

[Mark Kaplan]

I finally found someone selling these that will ship to the US.

Its crazy, its Jan 6, 2016 and still no way to buy a battery for this phone in the USA. And trust me, we all need to keep one of these fully charged in our jacket pocket because it gets low you are done.
The twitter Lumia folks are useless. I even called and they told me to use amazon, like I haven't tried that. Surprised they don't know how to use the internet. Oh well, maybe in a few months we'll see something reasonable on ebay or amazon. Just like the software on the Lumia 950 we just need to wait

 

[markeboyle]

thats ridiculous price

OMG. My battery on my 950XL is terrible after a month or 2. Was great when I first got it. What a POS this phone is. Battery already gone. Full of bugs. Every cute thing they tried to add they thought was better is just annoying. I wonder if selling the 950XL and getting a samsung dual edge is better than getting a new battery

 

[JaimitoFrog]

unless it is defective, will be a lot cheaper just to get a portable battery pack.

If it's only 2 months old it is still under warranty so get a replacement.

Ps see also this post about a Samsung edge.
