Replacement Battery has a different connector

My monster hunter rise joycons were no longer charging so I decided to see if a battery replacement would help. When I opened up my joycons, I found that the batteries used a different connector than the replacement batteries. Did I order the wrong batteries?

@lunamorte looks like you did order the wrong battery. Now, if it fits and if it has the same electrical specs as the old one, you could simply cut the wire from the old battery and change it on the new battery. Cut, solder and a bit of heat-shrink will make it work. If unsure on how to do that, it will be better to order the right battery.

My question now is what battery do I order then? Because everywhere I look, joycon replacement batterie have a different connector than the one for my joycons. I don't have the soldering skills to swap the connectors.
