I’ve got a Dell G3 3579 that’s in a dire need of a battery and a bottom panel replacement. I’ve thought of buying them off aliexpress, but I’m a bit skeptical of it… So ig my question is whether it’s OK to buy stuff like replacement laptop batteries off aliexpress.
E: I’ve checked, amazon does not ship to my country… I’m also technically asking if anyone knows any trusted good replacement battery manufacturers that I should look for…
There’s a reason why they cost that much. If it costs 2x as much but lasts 5x as long then what’s the better value?
I’ve never gotten a chinese knockoff battery that comes even close to the same endurance as an OEM battery. Even used ones will last longer on a charge and hold their capacity longer than knockoffs. Plus you don’t run the risk of the batteries expanding and causing a fire.
The problem is… that even used OEM batteries are hard for me to get at the least… nothing, except aliexpress ships to my country for whatever reason (I’m in the EU god damn it) and I’ll be honest, I trust eBay even less than aliexpress when it comes to batteries. No, I genuinely wanna pay more for a genuine replacement battery, I’m just not willing to pay “importing it from the US” much for it. And no, dell does not sell replacement parts directly in my country and my laptop is out of warranty…
