Replacement Battery wont connect to motherboard

Hi, i bought a replacement battery for my Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950FD. I installed it into the phone but the battery connector on the motherboard is incompatible with the replacement battery i bought. Could i have bought the wrong battery? Or did i accidentally break off the connector when removing the bloated battery? I know the S8 has 2 different variants of the battery so that could be a problem as well.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Well I have some good news for you OP.

The connector doesn't look damaged, and it seems that you have the right battery. Those smaller pop connectors can be a bit tricky to get reconnected, especially if this is the first time working with them. Try to realign the connector carefully over its socket and press down with your fingertip.

Will try this when i get a new battery in as the battery i showed in the video had the metal clip on top broken off.
