I’ve got a Dell G3 3579 that’s in a dire need of a battery and a bottom panel replacement. I’ve thought of buying them off aliexpress, but I’m a bit skeptical of it… So ig my question is whether it’s OK to buy stuff like replacement laptop batteries off aliexpress.

E: I’ve checked, amazon does not ship to my country… I’m also technically asking if anyone knows any trusted good replacement battery manufacturers that I should look for…

    There’s a reason why they cost that much. If it costs 2x as much but lasts 5x as long then what’s the better value?

    I’ve never gotten a chinese knockoff battery that comes even close to the same endurance as an OEM battery. Even used ones will last longer on a charge and hold their capacity longer than knockoffs. Plus you don’t run the risk of the batteries expanding and causing a fire.
