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…

    edit: meant in general, not just amazon, added other

    Any site you go with, I would make sure to triple check labels, reviews, warranty of laptop and the one offered by website.

    Maybe more expensive, but warranty for a year, Newegg/Amazon/other also has some, and the one you mentioned.

    Random search brought up Newegg:

      I’ve thought of using Amazon, but it’s not really a thing in my country, I don’t even know if they ship here, furthermore I’ve never shopped on Amazon before, so I have no idea how it works…

      (I just checked, Amazon does not deliver to my country and Newegg is an American thing afaik)

      And even further more, I don’t know which are the “trusted” replacement battery manufacturers

      Yea Dell machines can refuse third party batteries even if they’re physically identical

      It’s worth checking for that
