Motorola Droid Series Batteries

Why Droid Owners Stick With Their Phones

The Droid line was some of Motorola's most popular phones, and a lot of them are still in daily use years later, whether as a primary phone, a backup, or a device passed down for someone who just needs the basics. When a phone this reliable starts acting up, it's almost always the battery, not the phone itself. A few signs it's time for a replacement:

• The phone loses a significant charge overnight, even sitting idle
• It shuts off unexpectedly while still showing 20% or more remaining
• Charging takes far longer than it used to, or the phone barely holds a charge through the day
• The back cover or screen feels like it's lifting, bulging, or won't sit flush

That last sign matters most. A swollen battery means the internal cells are breaking down, and it should be replaced right away rather than left in use. A fresh battery is a fast, inexpensive way to keep a Droid phone going, especially compared to tracking down a like-new replacement device for a line Motorola stopped making years ago.

We carry Li-Ion replacement batteries across the Droid lineup, including the original Droid, Droid 2, Droid 3, Droid X, Droid Bionic, Droid RAZR, Droid RAZR HD, Droid RAZR Maxx, Droid RAZR Maxx HD, Droid Mini, Droid Maxx, Droid Ultra, Droid Turbo, Droid Turbo LTE, and Droid Turbo 2, along with Droid Edition Moto Z models. Every battery is cross-referenced against the original Motorola part number and phone model, and ships with a 1-year warranty.

How to Choose the Right Droid Battery

Motorola released a lot of Droid models over the years, and several generations share a similar name, so matching the exact detail gets you the right fit:

• Check the battery number first, if you can. Look for a part number printed on the battery itself, like EB20, EG30, or FL40 — that's the most direct way to find your exact match.
• Match by your phone's full model name. "Droid RAZR," "Droid RAZR HD," and "Droid RAZR Maxx HD" are three different phones with three different batteries, so use the complete name from your phone's Settings or the label under the battery, not just "RAZR."
• Know that installation is different from a flip phone. Droid phones have an internal battery rather than a snap-off back cover, so replacing it typically means opening the phone's housing and may require prying tools and removing adhesive. If you're not comfortable doing that yourself, a phone repair professional can install it for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which battery fits my Droid phone?

A: Check the part number printed on your current battery and search for it here. If you don't have the battery handy, search by your phone's full model name, including any RAZR, HD, or Maxx designation, found under Settings or on a label under the battery or SIM tray.

Do you have a battery for the Droid 4?

A: Not currently. Our Droid lineup covers the original Droid, Droid 2, Droid 3, Droid X, Bionic, RAZR, Mini, Maxx, Ultra, and Turbo models, but we don't carry a replacement battery for the Droid 4 at this time. Contact us and we can let you know if that changes.

How do I install a replacement Droid battery?

A: Droid phones have an internal battery, so replacement usually means powering off the phone, opening the housing, and carefully removing the old battery, which may be held in place with adhesive. Go slowly and use proper prying tools to avoid damaging the screen or housing. If you'd rather not open the phone yourself, a phone repair professional can install the battery for you.

Is it safe to keep using a swollen or puffy battery?

A: No. A swollen battery means the internal cells are breaking down, and it should be replaced right away. Stop using the phone with that battery installed, and dispose of the old battery at a proper battery recycling location rather than in household trash.

My Droid RAZR is several years old. Will a new battery bring it back to full performance?

A: A new battery restores the phone's charging capacity and run time to like-new levels, which is usually what people notice most. It won't change the phone's processing speed or software support, so if the phone feels slow for other reasons, a battery replacement addresses power and battery life specifically.
