It matches OEM part number AB3000GWMT and fits directly into the standard battery bay on both named models. Voltage and capacity match the original specification from Philips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS616 and Xenium S616 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models run the same 3.7V power rail, use the same AB3000GWMT connector footprint, and share the same BMS handshake protocol — a single cell covers both variants without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell on an S616 unit and confirmed the BMS accepted the new cell without a fault flag, charge current stepped correctly through CC and CV phases, and the protection circuit tripped at the expected over-discharge threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first installation, disable fast charging and run one complete discharge-to-charge cycle before enabling any accelerated charge mode. The fuel gauge IC on the S616 is calibrated to the original cell's discharge curve — giving it one full uninterrupted cycle lets it recalibrate against the new cell before high-current charging begins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the Philips S616 after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis is a voltage cliff issue, not a capacity problem. Under modem transmission load or screen-on bursts, a new cell that hasn't been calibrated can sag below the BMS cutoff voltage while the fuel gauge still reads 20–30%. The phone interprets the voltage drop as a fault and cuts power to protect the circuit. Running one full discharge cycle — down to automatic shutdown, then charging uninterrupted to 100% — teaches the coulomb counter where the new cell's actual voltage floor sits, and the false shutdowns stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePhone won't power on after the replacement battery sat in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion cells self-discharge during storage, and if the AB3000GWMT arrived below approximately 2.5V, the BMS will have entered lockout mode to prevent a deep-discharge charge attempt. The phone shows nothing — no boot, no charge indicator — because the BMS is blocking current inflow. Connect the phone to a wall charger (not a USB port) and leave it untouched for 20–30 minutes. The charge IC will trickle current into the cell at a reduced rate until voltage climbs above 2.9V, at which point the BMS releases and normal charging resumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43392035323994,"sku":"BWCS-PHS616SL-1","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43392035356762,"sku":"BWCS-PHS616SL-2","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43392035389530,"sku":"BWCS-PHS616SL-3","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-PHS616SL-1.webp?v=1779143086","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/philips-s616-replacement-battery-37v-2900mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
