Has anyone seen this or have an opinion on it?
I'm afraid I can't post links so you'll have to replace the stars yourself

Yes it has been discussed before, please search... It is in accessories-section.
Okay ta... The bump is probably no harm as there doesn't seem to be much post purchase discussion.
Has anyone purchased one of these? Any general reviews or reports back on battery life, build quality or other features?
Thanks again.

Are you still using that battery? Are you still happy with it? I have had 2 'extended' battery's one a 3000mah (which isn't too bad) and a 3500mah one which is absolutely pants! It lasts no longer than the stock 1500mah one. So i was just wondering if it is as good as he says it is, i am going to ask him if he will export to the UK. Ta.
I'm having one of those batteries posted by kevinjmoore, and it lasts me 2 days and 8 hours with moderate use, and still 15% juice left. Batteries are made in China by Yoobao

Coincidentally, he's the ebay seller. Only more independent reviews will prove the validity of his claims. :/

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
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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).

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.....

Is suggest the anker
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Mine arrived from China today, so took about 14 days to arrive - it was sent recorded delivery ( had to be signed for ). The thinckness of the battery is the same as the original battery in my HTC Sensation. That battery came with 95% capacity pre charged. Just topping it up at moment and will then test its use in comparison to the Original.
I bought mine as a spare battery as I go hillwalking and even though I have a powermonkey backup a spare will come in handy as my mapping software drains the HTC when the GPS is running.
Is that possible? A battery of 2800mah having almost the same thickness as a stock battery.

Oh for sure. Just by wondering, you have created a vortex that combines the Big Mac with the Whopper and a Zinger which Captain Planet fuses into this battery.
Anker is the good choice!

Definitely not, atleast right now anyhow. We haven't found much a way to increase mAh without increasing physical size in a while, lithium cells have hardly improved in that area since their conception. This battery is probably anywhere from 800mAh to 1500mAh.

You got it wrong, high capacity and same form factor is physically possible, just ask Wayne Szalinski!
I got one.
Checked it 2 days back!
Same thickness.
less capacity than the original.
But may be in the range of 1300mAh. cant say exactly. Have to use it and see. will post the results soon!!
---------- Post added at 01:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------
One review says
"Good battery, but the real capacity is 1500mAh. Test it RC-Power 601BS"
can any one tell me how to check correctly?
I bought one of these, without doing any fancy analysis its as good as an Anker.
I would not go for this Chinese things at all... It's a hoax definitely.
I bought a Seidio 1900mAh for Sensation two months ago, and it really ROCKS! I really get a big big difference compared to the stock one. I think Seidio are the best alternative batteries that do not bulk your phone. I also tried PowerSkin, and It also rocked indeed... it's fancy in the winter time when you have big pockets, unfortunately, it died after a week because it was defective
I used it last few days. It is almost as good as stock battery.
I can live with it. No prob. And when compared to the price, no question about the value.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I have this battery. Without charge sustain 2 days. Of course, no music, navigation and animated background. I think that is slightly better than the original.
People, it's not going to get any more than about 1900ish without physically increasing the size of the battery. I am here to crush your dreams, it's not gonna happen.
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.

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.

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.
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.

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..

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
