I just ordered this from ebay (new user, no url allowed - cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150506673268), seems similar. Hope the extra 20% will be noticeable...

Keep us updated mate!

Yep, very interested in some feedback on battery life with these.

I have a hard time believing it's a quality product when it's $9.99 shipped from China. Oh well, I'll probably buy one anyways, I just hate the shipping times though....

I had an Andida battery on my first Android phone, a G1, and it was super ok. It was a little better than the G1 stock battery, so that I bought one for my SGS also. When it will come, I'll post some impressions.

Had an Andida battery on my HD2 before... In the end it was just about the same as a stock battery (even though it was labeled with a higher capacity).
For the price a reasonable spare battery I guess but I don't think you'll get a better batterylife out of it... Hope I'm wrong though

i was wondering about the 1800 mah batt from the samsung beam , if it could replace the batt in SGS
anyone now ?

can someone who has got this please post a review or update ?
Planning to buy one.....your views will help a lot

Just got mine today. Was surprised by how fancy the packaging was. Also,the battery itself looks and feels high quality too. Will report later about battery usage.

Yeah cant wate for the battery impression....
I want to get one too

I guess I still need to tweak my usage settings. With Full brightness, email-syncing two accounts, watching flash videos online (using lag-fix ext4 on froyo), my battery did drop kinda fast. Think I will drop brightness and get rid of email sync.

How fast is kinda fast? do you get a full day of usage?

For this kind of stuff there should be a battery tester app.. Maybe one which drains the battery as fast as possible (with a timer). Or better, one which kan read the battery statistics (voltage and so on).

hi guys nice findings here. By searching ebay i found a lot of intersting things too:

2200 mah battery for fascinate (would it work with standard i9000?)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Extended-2800...Accessories&hash=item1e5f55dfb7#ht_1529wt_896
2800 mah battery with back cover (seems to be smaller than the 3000 mah one)

I'm curious about the last one too.. 1930 stock size is quite sweet, 2 year warrenty as well

ordering the battery is not an issue....but if its going to take a freaking month to reach then its not worth the trouble......and express shipping is too expensive.....

Andida 1700mAh battery

I have one of these coming in the mail: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/High-Capacit...745329?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item415d554bf1
Has anyone tried them before?

I bought on of those a while ago though it was labelled 1750 mAh. I think I paid $10 with free shipping on Ebay.
It got me through a day of normal use but just barely, so I would say it likely isn't more than 1300 mAh like the stock battery. Still a cheap backup battery, though

This just came in the mail today and it seems that this was made specifically for the Incredible S -- although it still fits perfectly in my DZ.
I'll update this thread as I go through more charge/discharge cycles and see what battery life is like.

I found this battery for 20€ here in italy.
If you say that is better than original I'll buy one.
I don't have really problems with my battery, but I love to have 2 battery.
If you give me your thoughts thank you

At that price you're better off buying an original battery. The Andida battery is definitely not better.
In the linked thread you can read about my initial experience.

Extended Batteries?

Anybody have any luck with extended batteries? If so what is a good brand to get and where from?

I bought a generic 1800mAh battery on the cheap through eBay. It has worked fine for me.

Yes, but is it better than stock? I highly doubt it's actually 1800mAh. If it is, then the Chinese have turned into wizards.

I am currently using these. I just started using it, so not sure how different it will be. I will let you know.
The reviews are kind of hit and miss

I seen one on ebay where you remove the battery cover, and it was a case too. with like a 3500ma or so.
But I like my Otterbox to much.

I'm using an Anker 1600mAh from Amazon. It's noticibly better than the stock battery, but it takes a week of overnight charging to get the most out of it.
http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1600mAh...NRRQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329521650&sr=8-1

I bought an Anker Slimtalk external battery for mine. Going pretty good so far. I can top up my battery when it goes too low in the evening.

I bought an Anker 1600 mAh and actually performs slightly better than stock battery.. maybe It's the Rom maybe not... Because with ICS I got 23 hours with stock and 18 with Anker..

are the really cheap batteries on ebay any good? How do they compare to the original?

I have a Dynapak(I think that's the name) from Amazon and I notice a difference compared to stock. I think I paid $16 when I bought it for two. I believe it says they're 1600 mAh or 1650. I'm happy with it.

If it fits inside the stock battery compartment then it will never be more than 1230 mah.

ive got 3 ( i like having spares of everything lol ) and been using em for about a week now. they seem to work the same as stock. they say their 1800mah but i know they're not.

I have been looking at these;
"ProdiCell-Premium-1600mAH-Extended" on Amazon, I cannot post outside links yet but if anyone knows the name, any reviews?

While there's no way to prove or disprove your statement without bench tests, many people have confirmed that the Anker batteries last longer in an apples to apples test.

Might just be temporary. Even on ebay the seller laptopmate USA (same authorized seller from amazon) raised the price to $67 to keep people from bidding. But they did not remove the auctions. So they will be back.

Hey goat, still got your Eternity? I use mine as an MP3 player now. Just put a new digitizer on it and its like new.

Never actually had the eternity. I had the impression. And yeah I still got it. I had to replace mine also.

Good and working Battery Extended? Any Suggestions?

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.

above user is correct, don't go for chinese counterfeits claiming 3500 in same capacity and dimensions. I think the mugen is the only one out there, but its rather a stupidity.

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

Mbuynow 6400mAh battery - worth it?

Apologies if this has been asked millions of times before but are these expandable batteries worth the price and will it give me a big increase in battery life?
Specifically, I'm looking at the Mbuynow 6400mAh battery for my S4. The price seems fair but with all these third party batteries, are they what they say they are? I've heard good things about Mbuynow but wanted to be sure. Has anybody bought this specific or a chinese similar 6400mAh battery and have seen an increase in battery life?

Likewise. There are so many different so called "extended" batteries out there. It'd be good to know if these ones are any good. They're pretty cheap though which makes me doubt their quality. If someone has experience with them please let us know.

Yeah the price is fairly cheap for what is named an "expandable battery". The size is somewhat proof that it could possibly be that size but then again it could be a 5000mAh.
There is this review that uses a 3900mAh version and quite slim but specifically I am wanting to know about their 6400 version.

I've bit the bullet and ordered one from their online store. Cheaper than most places on eBay and direct from the manafactre.

fake. likely under 5000 mAh. if even that. the best battery makers can only squeeze 5200mAh into a batt that size. what makes you think someone can do better for a fraction of the cost?

Wow , Anyone Try buy ????

But that battery is bigger than standard but smaller than the ZL 7500 etc so why isn't it possible? It is between both and as such the size kinda makes sense. That being said yes the price is very cheap hence our doubts, even if you find it is only 5000 that's still a lot more than the standard battery for very little money.
It will be interesting to see what is reported back

That looks like a good option for those who want extra power but not so much added bulk. Anyway anyone tried it yet or going to try it? Another one that would be worth hearing about.

Just a question
I bought this Mbuynow 6400 mAh battery for my s4, I have cm12 optimized ROM. (5.1.1) . It seems the phone recognised as 2650mAh, and let me a day active usage only. In the Stweaks option I changed the charging power to 1900mAh... The charging time is about 4 hours.
Its still on 24 hours usage time.
Question: Is it the max lifetime of this battery? Or needs manual calibration?
If anyone can help me please...
