My phone is almost 2 years old and i want to change out the battery because it barely lasts a couple hours. I am certainly not paying $80 that Apple wants but I found a battery with 2800mah (double the original) and was wondering if there would be issues putting that in there as opposed to the OEM one.

Ideas? Thoughts?

If the battery really is 2800mAh, then I would assume there is going to be a difference in size from the original 1400mAh battery that came with your 4s, causing a discrepancy when you go to put the back plate back on.
