If you buy there for the first time don't say never. Couse we now that never is not true. Maybe your home country post dont do job good.. Have you think about it?

Μaybe its better to ask for a refund, the lost parcels from HK are not a rare phenomenon...after all they re in transit for like 1 month.
I ordered 2 times from obostore, got exactly what i paid for both times.
If obostore refuses to refund, let us know, but mostly let paypal know. They will refund you if obostore won't

I bought Desire HD 1800mAh battery, hard leather casing & cover from OBOstore.
Delivery took more than 2 weeks, so far so good.
There is one time helping my friend buy Samsung Galaxy Tab casings, took almost a month, feedback to them, they told me whether I wanted to refund?
Yes. They refund the full money to my paypal account and just request me to accept. I got my refund next working day.
OBOstore, I opinion . . Is a very good online store, moreover all product genuine and cheep.

Never used them, but out of curiosity I went to their site, and read that when they ship an order, they also send an email confirming the shipment which includes a Tracking Number with links.
Did you use the tracking number to find the whereabouts of your order?

Bear in mind, when I said that Genine 1800mAh battery is refer to the Brand Andida NOT original hTC battery performance wise, quite okay and had over lasting compared to hTC 1230mAh.
Get yourself one, you'll know.

I mean to say that the battery is not genuinely 1800 mah and its real capacity is far less:

If you get good battery life out of it then that is fine, but it is false advertising.

Ya, quite true.
I used it as spare battery, last slightly longer than stock battery, compared pricing cheap with charger. Life span should be shorter than stock battery.
I have positive experiences but you can find cheeper eshops and with faster delivery

This doesn't seem like a run of the mill chinese cheap battery. Packaging looks very professional and the company itself has amazing ratings. I would say this is a pretty safe buy. Its a company that designs the batteries in canada.
And with amazon you're well proctected. Ebay tends to always back the buyer up as well, but I always felt amazon was more legit. I have no need to ugly up my phone with a massive battery, nor do I need the extended time (stock battery suits me fine) but for someone that can't shell out a lot of money this seems like a solid deal

Yes and no. I bought a Mugen from amazon, and everything went fine. It died after about 3.5 months, and Mugen wouldn't replace it because I didn't buy direct from them.
So, most reputable companies who sell direct on amazon are OK. Mugen doesn't sell direct, so avoid them on amazon.
I'd like to see how badly this battery bulges out the phone. I've seen pictures of the galaxy note with this battery, and it looks... big.
I'm willing to test it out. I placed the order and I'll report back once I get it.

That's probably the exception. I've never had a bad experience when returning an item through Amazon.
The reviews for the Galaxy S2 battery are pretty good.
And there's tons of S2 users out there. So I highly doubt this company makes crap batteries

Hmm... I don't see any reviews for the product. I'd buy it but the price worries me for how cheap it is. I mean... I like cheap, but... there are no reviews to be found which worries me.
Here is my thing about batteries. Last summer when I was on the hunt for an amazing lipo battery that would make my rc car run the fastest,coolest, longest right. Well them batteries were about 60 bucks, but what I had found through my research was there were only about 4 companies world wide who produce lipo-cells, so why waste 60 bucks when I could get a 2-cell for 12 bucks. Well it only lasted the summer because I wasn't very responable with it but its perfomance was on par with the more expensive batteries and so was temp ect. It don't have to cost the most the be effective, sometimes I feel this blacknightavalon works for mugen, because I promise you people 100 for a phone battery, they seen you coming

And yeah, I've no doubt Mugen makes good batteries. But the fact that you *must* buy from them and nowhere else in order to get any sort of service makes them a bit shady.

I would never move to f**king China. Not unless they got rid of their Maoist regime. No, I just know a good battery when I'm using one, and I think the Ankers are pretty good too (as long as you order the two-pack with the wall charger).
The battery cover in the Amazon picture is clearly not for a MT4GS, but maybe it's just the stock photo they use for all this company's batteries.
Anyhow, for $20, I took a chance.
The company as a whole seems to make quality batteries, so I doubt they would skimp on our phone. And it is an actual company, not a "no name generic" battery. And as I said before, if you look up batteries for other phones from the same company, they generally have great reviews
Good point on the picture. That battery cover does not seem to fit our phone, which means the picture is a stock picture.

Could you post pictures when you get it all set up?
Personally, I'd go for a slim extended battery if they offered it, otherwise it won't work with the dock. Still, if this works well, for 20 bucks it's a no-brainer.

I've been looking for a cheap extended battery since I ditched the G2. I had a $15 3500mAh eBay battery on it and it worked just fine. I'll probably order this after I hear what y'all have to say about it.
Hello
On ebay i see them very often but havnt found any review of them.
Clicky here
They claim to be 3000 mAh but are also the cheapest. (2.80 euros so about 3.65 dollar or 2.40 pounds)
And all of them say galaxy s4 i9500 but i read everywhere that i9500 and i9505 have the same battery?
Would be awsome if i can get some info or revies about this item.
Thank you for your time and info

It's not actually 3000 mAh. It won't last as much as the stock battery, you can be sure of that. If you're lucky it gets close to stock, and it's no more than a decent replacement battery.
The only real known 3000 mAh battery is the ZeroLemon one, which sacrifices NFC and has a slight bulge on the back cover (but does fit properly).
Okay
Thanks, i dont understand how they are allowed to just lie like that.
But even if it is about same strenght as stock or a bit less for the price its still very good.
I just want a battery for when mine runs out and i'm not able to charge.
But i also get a bit afraid that it might damage the device or something.
So as a "smaller capacity" backup this would do ? or might it cause some damage?
Thanks again.
I had the same question a while ago... I would just invest a little more and buy the ZeroLemon one, then use stock one as replacement. It's well worth the extra money.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZeroLemon-S..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item43bd602f7a
But if you insist, that one you showed will do good as a backup battery, just use it if you run out and need a replacement right away.

Yeah it should be the same one as he mentioned.
But amazon is not good for everybody.
For me by example.
I live in belgium and we dont have a amazon site we have to go to the french, german or UK site .
But yeah chances are big we pay a lot shipping costs.
If i order from amazon i have to pay around 5 dollars per item or something for shipping alone.
I bought a 3 pack of these along with a charger for $14 USD and they work well but aren't as long lasting as the stock battery. Still plenty great to keep on me. They are great and ensure I never need to be tethered to a wall like an iPhone user. I have gotten between 4 (when in bad reception and lots of camera use) and 18 hours out of the aftermarket batteries.
The one show selling by ts is probably Power brand. Most of these after market is much less than 2600mah, some even less than 2000 mah. Try buying established brands such as Anker or Zerolemon and you will be fine.

I recommend that.
But I would only get it from Amazon or some other site that has a better chance of having original samsung products and not fakes.
Most 3rd party battery makers, seidio, etc have been tested to be really at 80-90% of their true mah listing.
Not sure why that is the case.
1 day and 07 minutes with 3% left on the stock battery. This phone is amazing. I have it rooted on the Verizon ME7 Stock configuration and have most of the Verizon Bloatware frozen. I've even used it quite a bit during that time on Facebook, taking a few pictures, playing games, texting, making numerous phone calls and checking email using either WiFi or Mobile Data connectivity. :good:
I previously had the S3 and it didn't even come close to half this life.
Hello everyone this is my review on the extra battery or replacement battery for you Samsung Galaxy S5. Thus battery is made by NOOT products and is available for 10 bucks on Amazon. Also free 2 day shipping is your a amazon prime member. Ok enough of plugging amazon on ti the real deal how did it work because we have all seen that great deal for 3 batteries and a charger for our phone for 15 bucks. The problem is they barely workif tthey work at all. Nm
Now there are they new fancy named companies witha ssimilar deal but someiof them even suck. Have no fear I already did the testing here NOOT products (Atleast there batterie, have nnot tried anything else yet) are the real deal. I have 3 Galaxy S5's in my house and we all have at least 2 back up batteries and we all use NOOT because they work as good as the OEM ones. I'm not just saying it to plug NOOT I could care less just your friendly XDA product reviewer (Just starting on here but have been for a while). I love my gadgets for my phones so I buy everything I think is cool for my phone or tablet. So I figure I can spend a few minutes and tell my XDA family member about my latest add on to my phone gadgets. I will tell it like it is good or bad. I will be posting several other on stuff I have already been using so is you been thinking about buy a glass screen protector or a wireless charging Back or card wait a day and read my next reviews.
Thanks
Any questions please ask.

I got them when they were on sale for $5 dollar with a promo code a while back. They work really well, I say about 80 to 90% of the oem time capacity, which was good for the price.
However on a hot afternoon, i left a battery inside my car ... the battery expanded (got fat) and won't fit in the phone anymore.

This. Apparently I have the most helpful favorable review on amazon for it right now, and while I liked the battery when it still worked, I need to edit my review on there as my battery has also gotten fat. It's weird though because I didn't leave it in my car or anything. Battery worked fine for about a month and a half and then all of a sudden it started dying really quick once it reach 30-40%. After several days the battery life started getting shorter and shorter until it didn't even last me 2 hours. Pulled off the back cover and I realized it was getting fatter. I also got it when it was just $5, so I shouldn't really complain, but I contacted the company twice about a replacement (since the product comes with a warranty). They haven't gotten back to me yet and it has been over a month since. Kinda frustrating that their customer service is so lame. Other than that I thought the battery was a good replacement for the price. I've since ordered backups from Caseology on amazon and they seem to work just as well as the Noot one when i first got it.
So I've seen many threads concerning ebay+batteries = fake. I'd like to ask you guys where you get the not-so-fake batteries from (online). I've seen a couple of places that sell the (supposedly) original ones (A-Grade?) along with another listing for the fake ones which they call 'wholesale' or R-Grade (not sure what the R is for).
I want to know if there are any trusted sources to get an original battery. Tried calling the dealers in my country and they said that they don't issue phone 'parts' unless it's given for repairs.
so yeah,. where do you guys get your batteries from?

If you want to guarantee your battery is OEM than you need to buy it from either your local carrier store, Samsung, or a big box retailer like Best Buy. However, if you do not mind the extra bulk I cannot make a higher recommendation for a Zerolemon Battery/Case. I would link it, but I am a newer user and cannot post links. It is easy to find on Amazon and the price is great at $41.99.

I buy direct from Amazon. In my case amazon.ca.
I work at a busy cell/computer repair shop so we wind up ordering 10+ batteries out per device at a time since you never know when a dozen iphones may come in. We pull our parts from Mengtor and Global Direct Parts.
As far as personal opinion goes, Mengtor parts are generally junk for new(ish) phones. Until it's been out for a year, at least, we pass on any mengtor orders even if we save a decent amount simply because returns are highly frowned upon by us and customers (obviously, who wants to bring their phone back again?). However, After a year, or even two of parts being revised and worked on we migrate over from GDP to Mengtor since the warranty process for faulty parts we order goes through faster and they've worked out the kinks in their junk by then.
Global Direct Parts on the other hand, have never let me down. Sure we've ordered junk parts that are dead on arrival but for the most part they are our main supplier for all, excluding iphone 4/4s and prior iphones (due to well, being over a year old and the previous issues are taken care of).
The cost on GDP right now for you would be 22.89 for a battery on an S4 for Verizon (Here to link)
Our cost is about 15-18$ depending on if they are pushing stock for new orders to their warehouse or willing to hold onto it. Warranty process has always been excellent as well for when we get a bunk battery, or other part. Also, they generally offer OEM and aftermarket parts depending on which you want. The link goes to an OEM variant. Hope this helps!

OEM from Amazon I believe is good.
can't go wrong with OEM
Either amazon or preferably the Samsung store.
I bought ones of these, $8.75 & free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LX02I92/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I've always had good experiences with Anker. They're also available on Amazon, and unlike several of the knockoffs, they guarantee NFC compatibility if they list it.
If u can find a way of shipping items from china's tmall to ur place, they do hv authentic batteries from samsung's factories in china, with the retail packaging and all. It is a cheap option if u can find a way to save on shipping.
If not, I would just get anker batteries as they are reliable.

U could find any online seller that has the real deal for a cheaper price if u know how to spot fakes. Otherwise, if u really have to get the samsung one, u gotta pay more to buy it off the official retail stores.
As much as I hate paying Samsung for their horribly overpriced accessories, batteries included, I did end up buying my spare battery from Samsung, but I waited until they had a 50% off accessories sale. I wasn't in a rush, so I just waited until a sale came up. Call it a compromise.
I buy an original samsung battery from aliexpress.com
