I gotta get a 2nd replacement battery for my Poco F1 like 3 years after the first replacement, obviously I really lucked out on that first replacement.
aftermarket batteries are such a gamble. at this point I'm just about ready to buy one on eBay since at least there you can directly check a bunch of feedback.
I suppose if I get a good one from whatever vendor I go with, I should maybe order a second to keep on hand, since by the time I might need one, the batteries will likely long be out of production... presumably they're all new old stock even now, this phone is like 7 years old.

I actually need a new phone, but given this one has a Snapdragon 845 and 6GB of memory, I see an extended life for it as a dev phone / secondary phone for running something that isn't GrapheneOS.
