It was an Asus Zenfone, one of its models, there were a few. Maybe not the biggest maker or the most popular phone, but pretty well known I would think.

I found posts all over though from folks going through the same thing trying to find the batteries. And this was after all a phone with a replaceable battery. Outright, not just that it can be. Asus used to have them right there on their site, then when I needed one, poof.

I am not going to take a chance on some listing from China with a blurry pic and the specs not matching up what it is suppose to be. Found a couple of those, looking closer the size of the battery was smaller than what it needed to be. Not willing to play russian roulette with my health.

Its ok, it was the only device, other than my Kindle1 that I have that had a replaceable battery. I have gotten used to not having it. I am not one of those folks that will break out the tools and blow torches to change out batteries were they aren't designed to be changeable.
I don't know if they still make them for the K1 after all this time. I think I got one of those back in 2011. Then they had them everywhere.
