I wouldn't be worried about the price, but I just upgraded to the XL and I got a NERF armor case which wouldn't fit on if I got the new battery.

Nintendo 3DS XL Battery Replacement - iFixit Repair Guide

In the hands it feels solid and well built; we could happily hold it without discomfort, although perhaps would be less inclined to play it standing up for too long – preferring instead to rest it on the lap or a table.Though that obviously won't work for DLs until Nintendo gets a Networked ID system up and running in practice, not in name only.
