UK company BMC Digital claims to have a 1600mah battery for the Desire HD... for just 6.50 UKP. That can't be right, surely?
They also have a 1230mAh battery for 16.95 UKP, which seems more believable.
Sorry that I can't post the links yet, as I'm a new user.
The typical capacity of a battery is one thing but what they print on the label is another thing! I think, it's impossible to improve the original battery 1230 mAh about 370 mAh to 1600 mAh and sell it for less than the half price.

Well I just bought one for the hell of it, will let you know it's performance probably this time next week.
I got 2 of them 1600mAh with a bundle from good old ebay. I've been using them and they last at least as long as the original but not convinced they last much longer....
At least they work! so far
Cheers,
hey do you think it will be possible to make extended batteries (with cover) for dhd? because it has unibody

I don't think so, the battery have to be relatively the same size as the original battery, especially when the battery cover is used as antenna too.
try here for batteries - including extended one...
here is the link...
go to mugen-power-batteries dot com and then to the htc-desire section...
There is only one in the list.
its 1300mAh for 45$.
Very expensive and not very usefull.
Only 70mAh more -.-
So I used the one that was delivered for a couple of days, and let me tell you it is utter 'DOG-EGG' it doesn't last anywhere near as long as the original, but £6.50 for a spare ain't half bad.
Hi
Seen the following battery on ebay:
1600mAh Standard Replacement Battery For HTC Desire HD
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1600mAh-Stand...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item20b7cc5ca5
Has anyone bought this, and what do you think of this. I know its very cheap
Please give feedback, thanks
personally I think its a bit risky especially at the price they offering..
i still think the stock batteries from htc are the best

I have 2 of thoes batteries and I can tell you they work fine but they are not 1600mAh they say 1600mAh on them but last no longer than the oringinal battery.
Hello Guys,
My question is which battery is the best - Anker 1900 mAh (which actually proved to be around 1700 mAh) or Mugen Power 1950 mAh for Sensation/EVO 3D (not sure of the capacity is real). I have tried to find which battery is the best (even read the entire Anker thread) but I was unable to get a definite answer. I could see that Mugen is twice the money of Anker but it is coming from a well known company and also has temperature sensor. However Anker is a lot cheaper and provides good enough juice for its 15 bucks.
My HTC Sensation costs around $500 so I wouldn't mind giving $40 more for the Mugen battery but if the performance is small compared to the Anker battery I would prefer the latest.
So my question is which one is the best and have anyone tested both of them?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
I am in the same predicament, been investigating the topic for a while now and... I guess they're very much alike - you won't find many (if any) people that bought Anker and swapped it for Mugen or vice versa.
The main thing is lack of disappointed people, can't see valid complaints against any of them, therefore my choice will be Anker - just because I a greedy bastard...
I have both and have used both for some time and I can say that the Mugen definately performes better than the Anker. Roughly I'd say that the Anker gives me 10% extra time over the original and the Mugen 25%, yeah it's really that good.
Downside is of course the price, but if you have some money, do buy the Mugen
Thank you atticus182. So it seems that Mugen is significantly better than Anker. Just in case I submitted a ticket with Mugen asking if I could return the battery if it proves to be with less capacity than 1950 mAh. Will let you know when they reply.
DaHorse: If Mugen prove to be real 1950 mAh then the price is justified but I guess I will just have to check it by myself.
Meanwhile if there are other forum members that have tested both batteries?
you can check out this thread to see people's performance in regards to the Mugen battery.

It seems like its pretty definitive that the Mugen will indeed outperform the Anker. the problem is their store is out of stock until december 9th so you can't even get it for a reasonable price until at least then. Also, don't forget about the review done at batteryboss.org in which the reviewer showed that they might not be as great of a brand name as you thought.
As said, my vote goes to the Mugen.
Darn it, just ordered an Anker... Maybe give it a try and then buy the Mugen half december to compare. Didn't spot the Mugen topic btw.
I vouch for mugen too. Mines (htc evo 3d 1950mah) lasts almost a full day on heavy use. Plus the temp sensors work unlike anker.
I have the Mugen and am very happy with it. I used to get home from work with 40 - 45% battery left on stock. Now with the Mugen I have 60 - 65% left

For me there is no real question...I don't know what is Anker...just saw a lot of spamming everywhere on how cheap and cool it is.
I know that I'm a Mugen fan for their quality, service and social presence. When it comes to performance - I'm using Mugen 3300mAh for a year already on my Nexus S and know at least two people with HTC phones who cannot live without their batteries. I don't mind giving extra 30-40$ for good quality, support, warranty and facebook presence for such a niche brand. Mugen rocks!
I already have the Anker and am pretty happy with it but I'm considering getting the Mugen as well. Can't decide though..

Lol if anything your post sounds more like spam. I know mugen is a good brand obviously, but the anker thread is 120+ pages for a reason. not just spam.
also, why do you care about a brand's "social presence"?
Hello my friends,
sorry for my question here but i wouldn´t like to open a new thread for my question.
Also, who can i buy a original Mugen Accu for my Sensation. My original HTC Accu have enough power for me but i like a little bit more and i think Mugen is the best way or does the anker pass to me better?
Yours sincerely
BS
PS: Sorry i´m not so good in english
Is there another battery monitor app besides battery monitor widget that tells you the battery's capacity?
Sent from my Sensation 4g using XDA App

There is no app for that. You need hardware to check the power of the battery.

what about Chichitec? $20 on amazon
I think Chichitec and Anker are almost the same in performance. I'd go for Anker because of its lower price.
I just shelled out for a Mugen battery. Why did I go for Mugen over Anker? Well, the reason is a bit lame, but I just don't feel right buying that sort of thing from (and only from) eBay, of all places...
both types are made in same factory in china?

Will they make the phone last longer?
I bought Andida 1800mAh battery and to be honest... I don't see any difference. At least seller gave me a screen protector for free...
Interesting topic.
Here's what I got as information.
The first battery seems to me interesting and testing.
The second I bought it, it is unreliable and can not calibrate it. There is no control chip battery. This is also why it is not expensive.
The third is to avoid. A battery with dimensions of origins can not exceed 2000mAH
I've looked through a few threads and it seems there are two ways to get a 'good battery':
1. Official HTC battery from HTC accessory site.
2. Mugen high quality battery

I agree with you ...
I tested the batteries above and none are valid.
It is better to buy an original or a Mugen
I have 3000 mAh battery with replacement back cover. Too bad the shop I got it from went out of business soon after. Added some weight and about doubled the thickness but works like a charm. No need to charge every night anymore!
i just saw this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864638
and that person get a 3500 mah battary for 8 doller for the epic 4g which is really cheap and yet if you look at the battary life its amazing i was wondering if i buy this one for the galaxy s1
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3500mAh-Ext...899&pid=100011&prg=1005&rk=1&sd=220794031234&
will it be the same?
anyone bought one of those 3500 mah battarys and check out the life vs stock one?
*bump*
Basically, it's not rocket science. If the battery is the same size as the OEM battery, it's very likely that it's not any bigger, if not smaller.
Don't be fooled by 'Japanese Compression Technology' (my favourite line from eBay batteries lol), it's about as believable as 'Authentic Chinese Replica;.
it's depends on your luck, maybe you will get a good battery life, as the OP of the thread, but in my experience (a friend bought a 2500 mAh battery for my i9001) lifetime of stock battery is better.
Hello guys, this battery is good?
http://www.tinydeal.com/pt/4350mah-...t-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-s5-p-123321.html
Bought and i'm waiting for it.
NO!
Dont ever buy gold batterys! there all fakes.
Try ankar or zerolemon
i have a 7500mah anker battery for my s5. it is beast. even on the first day of ownership of the anker battery, i noticed a huge increase in battery life. i highly recommend the anker 7500mah battery or zerolemon battery. both are reviewed with high ratings on amazon and the respective anker and zerolemon sites.

Yeah,Anker,Zerolemon and Onite batteries are very popular on Amazon.
It's 4 dollars. You have nothing to lose.
Except if it's really crap quality and it overheats and ends up shorting your device. Or even worse catching fire or something.
looking at the same battery right now.
Is it any good? better than stock battery? last longe, doesn't get hot... ?
The cells in those cheap batteries just aren't up to the job of high drain phones like the S5, so all you doing is risking the battery shorting or overheating and going pop inside your phone, so spend a few dollars extra and get an Anker battery because they are good.
And thinking about the capacity they pronounce you never ever will get even near 4000mAh or more mAh with a LiIon/Poly battery with the dimensions of the original S5 battery.
We had a thread here about MPJ replacement battery for the S5 (thread at xda, producers webshop) which should be a 4300mAh version. I only bought it in order to check the capacity because there was a big discussion on this. I checked it with a special computer driven battery charger and with the S5 itself. It had nearly the same capacity as my some month old original S5 battery. I cannot say anything about long term use because I only tested it for some weeks.
So my recommendation would be get an original battery directly from Samsung (in order to not get a fake) or look after Anker (I tested it good with my S3), Zerolemon, MPJ. They are more or less proved quality.
