BL 6C on N80

Given that Nokia say it's compatible only with the E70 and the N-Gage QD, sounds like a really quick way to brick the N80..

But the 5B and 6C have the same voltage (3.7V). I heard a few people were using the 6C on their phones... I just want to be sure that it fit ok

The capacity of the 6C is more than 20% higher than the 5B. I think it's worth a try...

Well good luck with that and let us know how you get on.

I bought my N80 sim free and haven't had the same issues with battery life that others have (I don't know why not but I ain't complaining 😊 ).

Given the risk of damaging a 500GBP phone by ignoring manufacturer's advice I personally don't think it's worth it - I would have thought Nokia would have been happy to recommend a more powerful battery that's sold separately if it was truly compatible just to stop the criticisms about battery life..

I would be interested too, BL-5B in n80, was like fitting a 1.0 litre engine in a Dodge Charger, anything to improve it would be most welcome.

Not sure about the "works well" bit. The two reviews on the site you linked to suggest otherwise, saying the stock battery lasting longer.

err.. has anyone seen the size of a bL-6c????

Its much bigger and there is no way that it will fit in an n80, i would know, I have one here.

What it does fit in and work GREAT is 6600, 6630, 6680, etc etc.

thanks

It doesn�t fit on N80.
