It fits directly into the existing battery bay and connects via the stock connector. Use the capacity figure from this listing — 2900mAh — not third-party sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eI999 and Xenium I999 fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both model variants use the same battery bay geometry, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. One cell covers both.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran the AB3000EWML cell through charge and discharge cycles on the Xenium I999 platform. The BMS accepted the cell without error flags, and the charge IC completed a full cycle without thermal events.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use after installation, disable fast charging and let the phone run through one complete discharge-charge cycle. This gives the fuel gauge IC time to map the new cell's discharge curve before fast charge current is applied to an uncalibrated cell.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Xenium I999 reports wrong battery percentage after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe fuel gauge IC on the I999 stores a learned discharge curve from the original cell. When a new cell goes in, that stored curve no longer matches actual cell behaviour — the IC reports percentage against the old data. This shows up as jumpy readings or a percentage that doesn't match real charge state. One full discharge down to automatic shutoff, followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100%, forces the IC to relearn the curve against the new cell. After that cycle, percentage readings stabilise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the replacement cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the modem radio or screen backlight pulls a current spike the cell cannot sustain at that state of charge — voltage drops below the BMS cutoff threshold instantly, and the phone shuts off before the percentage gauge catches up. It is a voltage cliff, not a capacity fault. It is most common before the fuel gauge IC has completed its first recalibration cycle. Run one full discharge-charge cycle and check whether shutoffs persist below 3.6V under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43392034930778,"sku":"BWCS-PHX999SL-1","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43392034963546,"sku":"BWCS-PHX999SL-2","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43392034996314,"sku":"BWCS-PHX999SL-3","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PHX999SL-1.webp?v=1779143086","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/philips-i999-replacement-battery-38v-2900mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
