Light weight battery, lasts a while...although not 216 minutes and not necessarily 1-2 weeks standby either...more like 5 days to 8 days. If you roam alot or your signal is weak, your cell phone compensates by going analog or roam, which generally uses more power even when your fone is not in use (but on). Still not a bad battery tho! Price is rougly the same everywhere...so not too hot of a deal..
