Touch Diamond will be equiped with 1000 mAh battery without sacrificing the shape, size and impression of using extended battery.
That's great, although the capacity isn't that much higher than the original....
Release date?
100 ???
will that really make a real diffrance????
The Mugen webpage tells release date is end of August. There might have not much difference between the OEM 900 mAh with this 1000 mAh, but it is good that Mugen can enhance the battery by this 100 mAh. User can still choose to buy OEM extended battery which has 440 mAh more but has to use another cover with extended size.
you guys say its not that much - but its an 11% increase! which if your battery lasts 24 hours now - this new one will be an extra 2 and a half hours - its up to you guys if its worth it - im considering it!

I'm not too impressed with the lifetime of the Mugen batteries. I've had two in different PDA's and I've experienced short lifetimes.
not as short as the life in my diamond battery!
Seidio say they will have an OEM sized extended battery that will be more along the lines of 1100mah.. That's the one I'm waiting for.
sounds more like it! 22% increase! woo!

I wonder of its lifetime - some of my rechargable 2500 mAh last shorter than those of 2000 mAh running the exact same device after a few usages. Let's hear the experience once you have tried it.
No probs - if they ever release it... They said end of July, so I guess we can expect it any day now.

Well, there is an OEM sized battery on Siedos site now, but it is only 1000 mAh.
In europe the diamond have a 900mAH so 1000mAH doesn't give more. Perhaps 1 or 2 hours in stand by ?

I know - what a shame....
It's a shame the promised capacity hasn't appeared, but the 11% increase will certainly help me. With the original to carry as a spare I doubt I'll have to change often, but atleast I'll have the option.
As far as the HTC delay is concerned, I have a feeling they may surprise us, with an original sized extended capacity. Their theme is 'innovation' afteral, and there have been some interesting developments in Lion batteries recently. They have the punch to make investments in the right place. I'm holding out hope anyway lol.
I found a 1050mAh battery
Hey guys, I just fund this on amazon.de. It looks to be standard size.

There is one little issue with these kind of batteries, they may catch fire if not properly designed and for the phone. I the east you get batteries rated from A to AAA depending on how good they are and the risk. It doesn't happen often but make sure your phone is ventilated (not put on a carpet or covered) while recharging over night
Do you believe what capacity they print on that battery??? I wouldn't unless someone test it. I used to work with Cadex battery analyzer and believe me, there are so many lies on batteries even brand new ones as GP, Energizer, etc. Consider buying it...
You better buy this one for 7USD with worldwide free shipping:

It sounds like the 1600 mAh battery from Seidio will fit in the stock battery place with no need for a different cover.
Is there any reason not to get this battery, other than spending $55?

Anyone have a clue how much extra battery life 200mAh equates to?

For a really rough estimate, if your average battery life is 12 hours, then an increase by 200 mAh (~14%) will give you and extra ~ 1.7 hours. Emphasis on really rough.
Probably not worth it unless (1) you are away from a charger for long periods of time, or (2) your original battery goes bad.
what about the one that adds only 5mm of extra thickness? that doesnt seem to bad
5mm may not sound like much, but the phone is only 11mm thick now. so, it'd add almost 50% to the phone's thickness. that's significant.
I would not mind getting any battery with improved life, battery life is pretty important to me. I am just wanting to see how much extra will I realistically be getting - before I make the purchase. Other than the 200 extra mAh, build quality can influence how much more (or less) the battery life ends up being. If it add's 25%+, I may just buy it.
Same here, the more battery the better! As long as the size is the same which is a plus!!
sounds like it's more of an additional battery than a better replacement, considering how little additional juice it'll potentially give.
I'd be interested how it compares to the price of an original battery, then just buy the cheaper one to have an extra batt
I picked up one of http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002FU6KF2/ref=oss_product
It's a charger, works with any gadget that uses USB, it's TINY (smaller than the phone itself by a good bit, easily pocketable) and it can roughly double battery life. Slightly less convenient than a spare Nexus One battery, but easier to charge, store and use, as well as being able to use it with ANY usb device.
does anybody know if the battery guage will be able to recalculate for the bigger battery? i had that problem on the tilt/htc tytn II and that was really annoying because you have a bigger battery but no idea what the actual charge is
The Seidio is too expensive.
I would rather buy Momax from Hong Kong.
any luck on ebay?

I picked up a 5000mah external pack recently, which is about 3 times greater than the typical external battery. Works great. Charges the phone up 3 or 4 times over with no problem.
I've just ordered a wind up charger.
5 mins winding gives about 30 mins on the phone, it'll be good for geocaching, as we often run out on the difficult ones!

Just ordered one. Extra battery life is worth it to me.
Just received the battery from mobilecityonline.com. Ordered Tuesday came on Saturday $60 shipped. Here are some pic's will do a review when I can test it. Any question's please ask.
Initial impression:
The battery itself is bigger than the China 3500mah, The back cover doesn't fit over the sedeio battery. The plastic is thinner than the china back cover but thicker than the oem samsung back cover, not able to stand it up on it's side. The case it difficult to put on, but fits very well. It's gonna suck when my phone locks up and i have to pull the battery.

Hrm....so then what about those of us that bought the 3000 mAh Innocell? I'm wondering if this battery is actually 300 mAh bigger or if they just changed the rating on the battery. I'd like to get my extra 300 mAh, especially as much as the 3000 mAh cost.

According to androidcentral.com it is a different battery.
http://androidforums.com/epic-4g-accessories/244950-review-seidio-3000mah-extended-life-battery.html
Customer79: Hi Kevin,
Customer79: I have a Samsung Epic 4G phone.
Kevin: hi
Customer79: I see that you have a 3000 mAh and a 3300 mAh battery for this phone. Is this indeed the case or is it a mis-type of some kind?
Kevin: we have updated the 3000 to 3300
Customer79: If I bought the 3000 last week, is it a 3000 or is it in reality a 3300?
Kevin: 3000mAh is 3000mAh
Kevin: the new version is 3300mAh
Customer79: I think I read something somewhere that suggested that the 3000 was originally intended to be a 3300, but was de-rated to correspond better with real-life use. Is this the case? Could I get performance approaching 3300 with my recently purchased 3000 battery?
Kevin: no that is not possible
Customer79: OK. I sure wish I knew the 3300 was coming up before I ordered the extended 3000 batteries for my 2 household phones.
So...I guess the 3300 is a 3300. I think we all have to accept that technology is constantly changing with these phones. You got to hop in when you can and expect things to constantly upgrade and change. Clearly, my battery situation is much better with this 3000 mAh battery. My daily life no longer revolves around find a place to plug in my phone. Is 300 mAh really going to change your day? Not really.
Yea it's not a huge deal to me, at least not enough to go through the process of exchanging my battery. Just wish they would have made some mention of the 3300 coming so I could have just waited. Of course they wouldn't do that, because then no one would buy their 3000's and they'd have a bunch of leftover stock.
Would love to see a test between the 3300 mah and the cheapo 3500 mah batteries. Any chance that you would feel like running a test like that???

I planning too when i get the sedio battery.
While I haven't ran a methodical test but I know my Innocell 3000 mAh definitely lasts longer (or so it seems, placebo effect?) than my generic 3000 mAh. Of course, if the Seidio is actually 3000 mAh, then that should be right since the generic 3000 mAh is just two 1200 mAh batteries wired together.

Seidio extended batteries are usually around 82% of rated capacity.
That would put the Seidio 3000mah at around 2460 mah.
That is why I would love to see a test between the two that reduces all variables to make it as fair as possible. Something like putting the phone in airplane mode with brightness and volume maxxed, setting the phone to play a movie file repeatedly until it turns off and measuring the time.

The only way to test the "battery life" is to see how many charge and discharge cycles you can get. You need a tester circuit that accelerates this process or you will be doing this for a long time. Alternatively you can do a discharge test and so long as you use the same circuit you can then make some intelligent guesstimates in comparing the batteries.
The problem with mfgs are that they don't use the same parameters in testing. Thus two identical batteries can be rated at different capacities.
The short answer: Buy a high quality battery and forget the BS.

Same here, the only downside is the thickness the battery adds to the phone. I HAVE to use my extended battery at work since I'm nowhere near a charger, listen to my music all day and paint in a dungeon so there is a lot of crap that could possibly get inside my phone when switching batteries but on the weekends I rock the regular battery.

For me, the only disadvantage to the thickness is not being able to use a case. I don't mind the thickness at all (I was a former Treo lover LOL), but it bugs me not having a case on the back half of my phone.
Can be bout cheaper for about $55

Check on Ebay every few days. I haven't seen one yet but they make it for most phones. The batteries are thicker than the standard ones and it also comes with a different rear cover to accept the thicker battery. It is usually from China and around $15 or so.

Sometimes there are extended batteries made that are the same exact size as the stock one but have a larger capacity. For example, I bought a Seidio extended 1750mAh battery for my Droid X which was the same size as the original battery but had about 250 more mAh to it...it gave me a couple more hours on one charge. Hopefully something similar is made for the G2X!

That's the nice thing about the Seidio ones. They are a legit company, and they can usually squeeze an extra 150-400 mAh out of the standard size battery. They aren't too terribly expensive, either. I am thinking for now, though, I may have to give one of those ebay ones with the separate battery charger a try....I have had good luck with ebay laptopt batteries, so....it might be worth the $20 for it.
Also, I will start spamming Seidio's twitter. Lol.

Agreed. Seidio does make some legit extended batteries, like the 2500 and 3500 mAh one's they put out for the EVO and Droid X, etc... but the ones that are the same size as the stock battery don't hold any extra juice, they take advantage of the loop hole in the rules concerning how companies can label batteries.
Batteries have a range of mAh that they hold. Say the battery in our device has a range of 1300 to 1700 mAh, most companies will use the average and label the battery at 1500 mAh. Seidio on the other hand will label theirs on the high end of the range at 1700 mAh, which is perfectly within their right to do, but is rather deceiving to the consumer.

There is no range. All the OEM batteries I've tested were within 3% of their tagged rating.
Regarding Seidio, there is no explanation as to why their "same size & higher capacity" batteries consistently deliver less power than an OEM battery.
But don't let me stop anyone from buying their snake oil.
Regarding Mugen, that first link shows a disassembled 3000mAh battery that contained 2 1200mAh cells. I call it fraud, plain and simple. They all do it, I've proved it.
i just ended up getting this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000N63AC6 . i have a body glove case and they're a pain to snap off everytime i want to replace my battery while at work. for me, this is much easier.
now if they made a good extended battery with a custom back cover like i had on my g1, i'd get it.

Definitely stay away from the 1600mah. I saw those and I emailed one of the buyers.. and asked him for his input on the battery b4 I made a purchase. He said "stay away, they are junk and only hold a charge for a couple of hours. save your money."
Hi Guys,
i got my S4 9505 from 1 month and i very very happy with it..also for good battery life, but we have removable battery and maybe there is some battery better than original..
I looking for a battery with the original size dimension but more big than the original..but above all really big.. not only write on it.. but it must to be really extended..
if someone use some battery extended with original size and is certain that is extended can give me information about your battery life, screen on time and link for buy it?
Thanks
No suggestions?
Please note it is not physically possible to accommodate more capacity into the battery for the same size, if that was possible I guess samsung would had done that for us. However why not purchase extra charger and battery case made by samsung.
But I do see Mugen doing a change by providing 2750mAh battery of same size. Check here at amazon.
Or you might have to get large extended battery and find the best the chose from.
I think battery up to 3500 mAh on ebay can suited the original back cover (according to seller description). Many of those selling these batteries on ebay, but I still haven't try one. Maybe later I'll try.

No, impossible. They claim to be 3500's but the are not. Most/all of the aftermarket high(er) capacity batteries are bogus, capacity wise.

I think battery up to 3500 mAh on ebay can suited the original back cover (according to seller description). Many of those selling these batteries on ebay, but I still haven't try one. Maybe later I'll try.

thanks, if you try some battery please tell me..
i found this http://www.ebay.it/itm/ZeroLemon-2x...hone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item19e14ab68c&_uhb=1
its seems 3000mAh.. but i dont know this ZeroLemon and if this battery are good..
someone know or use this 3000mAh ZeroLemon?
Ps. Thanks guys for your replys :good:
I had a Zero Lemon slim extended battery on my SGS3. It was 2400mah vs the stock 2100. It was pretty good, giving an extra 30-45 minutes or so extra screen time and another 90-120 minutes of run time. If you find you're just cutting it close at the end of the day and you can't charge mid-day, it's worth the $20 for a pair of them plus a charger. You can get them on Amazon too. I haven't bought the S4 versions yet but I plan to - my wife and I can each get a little more battery life for a total of $20 that way.
You lose NFC, though. that's probably why they have a higher capacity - no NFC antenna. If you use that feature, or S-Beam or whatever, skip the Zero Lemons.

Hi guys,
nobody have tryed this battery http://www.ebay.it/itm/ZeroLemon-2x...hone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item19e14ab68c&_uhb=1 on GS4?
I'd like to know if is good battery, if is not dangerous and if is true extendend..
thanks
I ended up with a Hyperion because it would fit the Seidio Extended (and it did perfectly). I was not at all impressed with the reviews on teh 3000mah ZeroLemon because it seems like it was thicker than the stock battery and put a bit of a bulge on the battery door. I was afraid it would not fit cases properly so I skipped it.

i researched a lot on zerolemon ...
their product is good and is as stated no scams !!
i couldnt buy it coz they were charging $19.99 + $17(shipping) and i bought the original samsung battery kit for $32 where i live .....
but i had researched a lot on the company before making the decision towards them.... only regret is samsung gave me 1 battery + charger 1.7mAh .... zerolemon was giving 2 batteries + chrager 600mAh.... so i basically traded only battery for a charger that charges a battery in 1hr and 30mins 0% --> 100% .....
so whats the best rate for getting a good 12 to 14 hour outta your batt
Hi,
Just last month I picked up Galaxy Note 4 and I need a spare battery backup. My last Galaxy S3 has several spares from mpj, but I am now having a tough time deciding which kind of spare battery for the Note 4. My concern with the mpj 6440 mah is the increased size/weight with the case, but on the other hand extended battery life is going to be exactly twice times as capacious as the standard battery. I’ve never used extended battery, how did you guys adapt to them? Is it worth a try?
I have a selection for different use cases. I've got some OEM batteries to swap out when needed, and a Hyperion extended battery for those times when a bulkier phone is less trouble that swapping batteries.
If you're ok with adding some bulk to your phone, you're definitely should give it a try. Basically, you have 2 options: Hyperion (8000 mAh, not much of the bulk) and Zerolemon (10000 mAh, but makes Note 4 brick sized and have lots of issues with battery level reading). I'm waiting for my Hyperion to arrive, so from my point of view, I would recommend a Hyperion.

Best battery with no issues
BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S
Mugen also has a battery coming out. It's 6640 mAh, which is basically twice the size of the oem battery and suppose to have Qi wireless charging and NFC for 89.99. Im going with the Hyperion myself
Mugen battery looks nice but its way too expensive (http://mugen.co/mugen-power-6640mah...-samsung-galaxy-note-4-with-battery-door.html). Zerolemon seems to have issues with calibration which sounds it is due to its TriCell. I for one am thinking of getting the Hyperion battery. However, I contacted ZeroLemon about a week ago and they told me that they were releasing a smaller size extended battery in 2 weeks. I would prefer this one, if its true, because they have a nicer case and hopefully its only a single cell battery also.

Wow, they want to build some suspense, huh?
I've used extended batteries before but with the great battery life of the N4 and it's aggressively styled good looks I found having an extra battery is all I need. I actually don't even need it with my 7 hour screen on time but I like having even more than that for intense days. The spare battery gives me all the battery life I need plus some and my N4 doesn't look like a weapon/brick.

He probably using stock spare. Pics are posted all over threads of how the phone looks. Really just 2 options in looks . a ugly slippery back or a huge brick that can go for days. Either it depends on how bad u need the phone to survive.

Mugen Battery 6440 mAH
I got the Mugen battery for the Note 4 just for 4 days now and it is nice. I got around 10-12 hrs screen on time but the percentage is still dropping fast.
The back cover is fine for me (not slippery)
When I check CPU-Z the battery capacity states that it is only 3220 mAH, is it possible to adjust this? I found a Mugen battery profile app but it is outdated from 2013 and root is required.
Can anyone help me?
I've tried them in the past but the size of them always put me off in the end. Note 4 has adaptive fast charging so for me I could just plug it in at work mid day and bump back up to 100 before leaving the office and the whole thing became moot. Its a shame I need 2 charges to get me through the day though, but oh well.
The choices for extended battery cases are simply too insufficient!
Zerolemon is the best it protect you phone and also support NFC :good:
