Nope. Samsung won't sell them. At least not to consumers. I don't know what their official repair places got going.

I work at a phone repair shop (not Samsung certified), our suppliers sell us new genuine batteries. So maybe ask around at one near you. Or get one from ifixit, I replaced my Oneplus 6's battery with their aftermarket one and it works great.

You work at a phone repair shop thar can get oem batteries, but you used an aftermarket one from ifixit?

I live in a smaller city, so there aren't really any reputable ones here, but I may see what I can get a hold of when I drive to a bigger city, or make a few phone calls to some.

We get OEM Samsung batteries. Not for Oneplus last time I checked. The more popular the brand the higher the likelihood for original parts.
