Negative Positive
Title: Of Questionable Origins
Review: First, let's consider the negative. This battery came wrapped in a plastic bag (as a new one would) but had no other packaging. I cannot be sure if it's new, remanufactured, used, sat on, played with, sung to, or otherwise. Additionally, the battery capacity is closer to that of the standard battery's claims -- four hours on a full charge.Now, let's look at the positive. This battery is made available at a reasonable price point. It's clearly labeled as an original HP battery and appears to be in physically new condition. While the capacity falls pretty significantly short of the full claim, it does work better than the factory provided battery's 2 1/2 typical performance.In the end, if you're not so concerned about your battery possibly being serenaded before being shipped to you and the original packaging isn't a big issue, this isn't a bad buy. I'd actually consider purchasing another one for price and acceptable performance alone.
Is the review positive or negative?
