Thanks, I figured it would be. Didnt know if there was anything a little bit bigger and was quality. Hopefully the Misses will be happy with it.
I've been using a BXT DPD G14 I found on eBay for 5 or 6 months now and it works very well. Fits with the original back and all. This is (supposed to be) a 2300 mAh batt. Even if it's not a full 2300 mAh batt., it still works pretty good and for $8, it ain't bad.
The anker/chichitec 1900s and the Mugen 1950 seem to be recognized as the three most true to their rating. All have had their share of positive reviews, as well as a handful of lacklustre reviews. I personally purchased the Mugen, but any of the three will likely work just fine for you.
The Saner battery also seems to be really good.
Momax X-Level 1700mA/h works for me.
I have used several different batteries, over time the best one I have use have been the 2010mAh AceSoft. After a few months of use these batteries lasted a lot longer then any of the other ones that I, or my friends have used. A little more money but well worth it.
me and my girlfriend both have anker 1900 batteries and it causes random shutdowns and its extremely annoying.
i bought an evo 3d battery which is 1730 mah and the same size.. should give about 9 hours of use. im waiting for it to come in the mail. but im back to the stock battery and no random reboots.
wouldnt recommend anker to anyone. just saying.

I use the mugen-power 1950mAh since january and it's great!
No need for a back cover and you get enough fuel to do whatever you want and without problems (random reboots with anker...?).
I really recommend it

jona compare the sice of the anker you have to your oem battery, it's probably a bit shorter. I have heard of people having random shut downs and I can tell you, your battery isn't broken or anything, it's most likely just a bit to short.
Try putting a little bit of plastic or paper additional to your anker battery in your phone - so it's like phone, papper/plastik, battery, connectors, phone....
There is even a post out there in xda about that.
Hope that helps.

Never had problem so far. It's been 2 - 3 weeks now.

Own Anker battery for 3 month
Its a fantastic battery, claims 1900mah its actually 1950mah according to an app. also battery benchmark for stock was 240pt and Anker came in just under 500. thats a true improvement!!
I know I'm a bit late, but I have to say that my Chichitec 1900 mAh battery is fantastic! Fits great, and lasts noticeably longer than the stock battery. I've also read far fewer negative reports on the Chichitec battery compared to the Anker and others.
I highly recommend it.
Ive had the anker and am now using the evo 3d battery (1730), both of which are fanstastic but the htc evo battery is cheaper on Amazon. Always lasted at least 24 hours either way. Surely you've already gotten one by now though...
I have the anker battery now. It works perfect.
One and half a day because i dont play games and watch films.

Anyone else tried this brand before?
Well I just bought one of the first one's. Kind of skeptical that it is rate almost 50% higher and looks to be the same size as stock. Also hope this fits... oh well. Says 5 - 10 business days so I will report back later.

Ask the seller if he could weigh it for you
Seller said 29g, while chichitec and anker is 34, stock battery is 29 aswell heavier means better batterytime
I thought someone bought these gold ones and said they were crap.

BUt this isn't the gold one although i bet it's made at the same factory, oh the gold battery weigh in at 27 Lol i had a gold battery but got a full refund, so i opened it up, and there was a small battery inside, with a spacer built around it!
Really?! Oh lame...it's shipped.
I guess the only way to find out is to test it and form my own verdict.
can someone explain me technically how the weight of the battery relates to the performance.
apart from getting a case with a smaller battery inside.

generally speaking the weight of the battery relates to the amount of li-ion in the battery (this can only be a generalization due to the casing of the battery and the like) but simply put the higher the weight the larger amount of li-ion in the battery which increases the Amp Hours; Ah
edit: so continuing on a 2300mAh battery should be heavier than a 1500mAh battery as it would have more li-ion in it
so anyone got one this already and tested it out
I have BXT'S extended model BP6X and am using it with my Motorola XT720. The BXT battery weighs in at 24g (it is rated at 2200 mAh) and the OEM BP6X weighs in at 28.7g (which is rated at 1390 mAh) I have used the battery for about a day (with the charge that it had shipped with) and it didn't last very long. I was also running a 1.2ghz overclock at the time so that could have contributed to it too. I believe however that I need to charge it for about 10 hours or so the first charge, just to make sure it has its full capacity. (which I have not done yet) I can give a full overview in a day or so if you guys would like.
This is the one I have:

Seeing as it weighs less and claims its 2300 mah I call this battery a load of crap like the other 2300 mah battery. It prolly has spacers around a smaller battery.

Yes, that is probably true. I have also heard reports of android's battery meter not correctly read the % of battery power on these BXT extended batteries but it may vary from phone to phone so people will have to test it out on their devices. What the report said was that the battery would quickly drop to 25% and then it would take HOURS to drop to 0% but low battery messages would pop up frequently during that time because the phone believed the battery was that low, even though the actual battery % was not that low because it was just incorrectly reading it. I could not tell yet from a few hours of use whether or not I experienced this problem with my BXT BP6X.
Don't buy bxt 2300 mah
I ordered this BXT 2300mAh battery on July 21st 2011.
1st of all it came after 15 long days of waiting.
and when it finally arrived the battery was non functional. DOA
(that might be a one time thing)
But what's really surprising is the weight. As someone mentioned before; if the battery is more powerful it should be heavier. So, a 2300mAh should have more li-ion and should be quite a bit heavier then 1520mAh Stock. right?
(someone correct me if I'm wrong)
well this battery doesn't even weigh as much as the stock.
my conclusion: FAKE FAKE FAKE!!!
I just filed a PayPal claim to get a full refund.
Don't be sucked into buying this battery!
Guys, sorry to resurrect this thread but I've just got one of these with the Sensation I've just bought.
It weighs 34g exactly the same as the Anker I've got. Bot tried the Anker yet so can't compare how they both perform.
1gram battery ≈ 47mAh
I have 5 batteries.
Motorola BK60 930mAh Weight - 20g.
Motorola BC50 750mAh Weight - 16g.
Sony Ericsson BST-33 950mAh Weight - 20g.
Samsung sgh x160 800mAh Weight - 17g.
HTC Desire HD 1230mAh Weight - 26g.
930/20=46,5
750/16=46,8
950/20=47,5
800/17=47,0
1230/26=47,3
Has anyone ordered/tried this battery yet? It seems super bulky but I need something that'll at least get me 24 hours of life and I don't think the 1800 one will do it.

You can get a coupe of stock batteries plus an external charger for about 10 bucks on ebay, I dunno why you would wanna spend $100 on that thing, the added bulk and weight on an already big device would suck ass

I don't know, it just seems like a pain to carry all these extra things. We'll see though. @[email protected]
I'll probably check this out. I've owned some truly bulky Sidekicks and never sweated the weight or bulk.
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
I was thinking of ordering one of these, anyone tried it out yet? Is it worth buying?
Yes. Have one.
Weighs about the same as a Sidekick LX and the device is now about the same thickness as a Sidekick 2/3. If either of those things make you feel uncomfortable, the battery isn't for you.
Shipping from Hong Kong takes forever and I have heard rumors of spotty quality control down at Mugen. There are some people around the forums that have had to return defective batteries. (My guess is that it is not a pleasant place to work and the hours are long. So, be patient.) With that said, I'm happy to report no problems so far.
After a few charges, you will start to see the benefits of the extra juice. Don't bother trying to calibrate the battery yourself, I have found that deleting the battery stat file actually makes the device expect the stock battery. All you can do is follow the instructions that come with your battery.
The extra capacity is nice and I don't mind the extra bulk. You'll have to decide if the trade off is worth it. Good luck.

orange808, how much longer does your battery last now? xmeatismurderx, links for extra batteries and charger on ebay?
ive had it for a few months, i love it i airbrushed the case to match my phone and depending on rom/usage/other facotrs i can easily go for 1 day one weekend i went for 36 hrs with light use and juice defender on and it still had some juice left
Sorry about the late reply..
With moderate use, I have to charge my phone every other day right now. 36 hours is about right for general use.
Heavy or constant use is about 10-12 hours. The display seems to eat the most battery, so this applies to just about any tasks that I do on the device.
My results may not refect what you would get. I have removed all of the built in T-Mo and Zipwip software. I use Voodoo sound on top of the stock kernel (no V6SC mod). I use Green Power to manage my data.
Hope this helps.
I have the 1800mAh battery in my Sidekick. It was just the bump that my device needed. I can go a full day easily doing what I need to do. I'm running Glorious Overdose V1 as my ROM and am using K9 Email with IMAP IDLE enabled which is a battery hog IMO but I need my push email. The nice things about the 1800 versus the larger batteries are a lower price and it fits inside the stock cover.
yeah the 1800 wouldnt have been enough for me, but the stock cover would have been nice

which 1800 did you purchase? the Mugen or a generic?
IMO don't buy that bulky battery just install the new rubix xcel rom for the phone make a battery calibration than lower the brightness and voila your battery last much longer.
I have the mugen power 3600 mah battery in my phone. Probably the best investment i've ever made since the 2400 mah battery on my old G1. It lasts me through the ENTIRE day on 3G (I never saw the 4G icon btw. probably because of where i live)
I leave for work at around 8AM, drive to college at 4PM, and drive back home at 8PM. on all trips (30-45 mins), I listen to online MP3 streams on 3G. At work and college, I check twitter, gtalk, G+ messenger, email, and some light browsing.
i hit 15% battery at around 1 AM or so. I never felt so careless about charging my phone
EDIT: also, the fat battery cover makes the phone feel far more ergonomic than with the stock battery cover. the size feels just natural for my hands.

anyone who has the 1800 mah battery, which one did you buy? i bought replacement batteries off ebay, they were super cheap- 2 1800 mah batteries plus external charger for 11 bucks. if i charge em up in the external charger and put em in the device they work fine, but anytime i try to plug the phone in, either to a wall charger or usb, the phone goes dead... completely dead, and i have to unplug, pull the battery and reboot. has anyone experienced this? i guess i got what i paid for
edit: i'm guessing people got the Mugen 1800, i see it now on ebay for around $44.
I changed to the new rage 3.6 time and my battery lasts twice as long

Don't get em, haha. The battery life on them seemed even less than the stock 1500 mah! Plus the flaw I mentioned about the phone shutting down when plugged in with those batteries. I've had some good luck at times with cheap replacement batteries, but that particular set was a real flop. For reference, I think it was $8.99 for 3 batteries + ext. charger.... avoid!
Seems like a good investment if you tend to use your device like a computer. But for me, it'd be pointless.
hey guys. After having the sensation for about three months i got pretty much sick and tired of the battery life and so i searched up and found an anker 1900 mah battery, do you guys think that it is actually worth buying it? I also heard from a friend that it reduces the overheating issue that the phone has, can anybody confirm this to be true?
Try to look around.... Anker battery topic has a lot of replies... You just need to open sensation accessories... Because battery is accessory....

It's really work for me, but it's actually about 1830-1850 mah not 1900 mah as it state on a label.
Picked one up off Ebay and it's great. I can go a few extra hours compared to stock battery. Worth it for me.
so far after reading the reviews anker battery has got lots of positive reviews but unfortunately the price of the battery in malaysia is double so i opt for sunglobal 1850mah... http://www.sunglobal.com.my/enlarge.asp?id=93.... so far works fine for me for around 15 to 25 hours..
This is an interesting topic for me too. There are several brands offering batteries with extended capacity. Do you think that they are all the same, or Anker is the best?
Will rreplacig my stock sensation battery for the anker 1900 one reduce overheating

No. The battery is only part of the issue, your processor generates more heat.
For those thinking the Anker solves temperature issues, it doesn't have a temperature sensor included so always reports 25c no matter how hot or cold it gets.
Anker is 1900 mAh, and I saw another aftermarket batt on eBay listing 2450 mAh capacity.
Its easy to print a label with a higher capacity rating, so my question is has anyone tried it - feedback?
I got 2 Anker 1900 mAh batteries with external usb/plug recharger, I just swap them when one is discharged.
Now my phone works a lot longer but the greatest difference occoured when I stopped using Superpower app with it's 2G/3G switching scripts (2G preferred) and turn on airplane mode in the night when I sleep.
Now my phone works even 3 days when is lighlty used.
My Anker battery offered a great improvement at first, however six months down the line I'm not so sure its lasting as long as it used to - can't say I'm using my phone any more than I was, but I always seem to be in power saving mode now before I stick it on charge at the end of the day. Hopefully in another six months it won't have gotten any worse!
My stock battery is shot. It will drain from fully charged down to nothing in an hour of browsing the net. I have tried everything to calibrate it and have tried different ROMs but still the drain is horrible.
I saw a 1900 anchor (ankor?) battery on amazon for $19. Is that the one that everyone buys?

Yes. http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1900mAh-Battery-Sensation-Mytouch/dp/B0053EZJMC
It works great. Though l don't use my phone heavily. I mostly use it at home when phone is plugged in. But still it last much longer than stock.
Most people buy Anker battery and are very happy with it. I personally wanted more juice so I bought Mugen 3800mah battery. With Mugen I get with extremely heavy use around 26 hours of use. With moderate use I get around 36 hours. Light use 48 hours. But one problem with mugen is you will have to replace your back cover and your phone will be thicker to accommodate the battery. For me personally, I was after extreme battery life so the thicker phone didn't bother me at all. Another issue is price. Mugen is five times more expensive than Anker. But for me, I'm keeping my phone for awhile so it was a investment. But most don't want to deal with those issues so they choose Anker. It all depends on what you want. I recommend you start with anker, then if you decide you want more juice, go with mugen. But for most Anker is just fine. It's a good battery and will give you extended use. If you want extremely long battery life, go with mugen.

This is probably a stupid question but you can charge the battery by plugging your phone in like usual right? I see that some of them come with a wall charger where you have to plug the actual battery into that.

Yes. Anker simply replaces your stock battery. Same shape size.
Is this Anker really that good? Beacuse I always buy the batterys from ebay (just like the ones for my DSLR) and have now a no brand 2430mAh using for almost a year and can use it a whole day without problems. Costs me only $12 and free shipping.
I bought 2 Anker batteries and a charger for $30US, I think. No regrets.

I bought my Anker 1 year ago and it still pretty good!
Get Anker.
An important thing to consider is anker has a 1 year warranty. And they WILL honor their warranty. I bought 6 batteries for my families LG Optimus Vs (Our first smartphones) and 1 battery went bad after like 6 months. I called them up a few months later when I realized I had a warranty, and they sent me replacement! (it was like 1 month before my warranty ended) And all they wanted was the serial numbers of the old batteries, however the original ones didn't have numbers so they instead just wanted a photo. (Which now that I think about it I never sent... ...)
Also, one of the chargers (that I bought with 2 batteries, a few months before that set of batteries I mentioned above) fried for some reason after about 8 months. So I left it on the shelf hoping I might be able to fix it. By the time I realized I had the warranty it had been over a year since my purchase. Bummer. So I called them up explained it went bad several months ago but I didn't know about the warranty, could they send me a replacement? And even though I was no longer in my warranty they sent me a new one.
Another thing is, for me, having spare batteries is a MUST as I have a LOT of free time at work. (I'm a background actor, and most of the time we have to do whatever we want) And continuous use (Browsing the web, playing games, reading news, watching TED AIR talks) drains a battery in 3 - 5 hours. And it can sometimes be 16 hour days, with no place nearby to plug in a charger. That's another awesome thing about Anker sets, the stand alone charger. I have MANY times been at work with one of my batteries dead. I looked for and found an outlet, a little far from holding, (where we are while we aren't working) and just plugged a dead battery into the stand alone charger and into the outlet. I can go to work or just go about my business not tethered to the wall, and 3 hours later my battery is charged. I then would switch one of my more drained batteries for it and continue like that.
So ultimately its up to you, but I would recommend getting a set of 2 Anker 1900mah batteries and a charger for $30. However if the charger isn't a big deal for you then look up some $7 Evo 3D batteries on Amazon. They are 1730mah, and are pretty decent.
Bragging here, I currently have around 10 batteries! Only 2 are anker. the others are 5 EVO 3D and 3 Sensation stock batteries I got for only $2 each! I found someone on Amazon selling them for $2 each with $4.50 shipping, only the shipping combined! So I got 8 batteries AND five 16GB Class 4 Sandisk MicroSDs for only $54 total. What a deal. lol.
Hello guys,
I am only getting 2h SoT on my S4, the phone gets really hoooot and the battery got "bigger", so it's dying. Which one is probably the best one to get? Anker, Zerolemon, Ravpower or anything else? I used some Anker ones on my previous phone and was quite happy with them.
How much SoT/battery life could I expect on a battery like these?
Cheers!

Some people said that ZeroLemon fixed the stuffy audio problem on their batteries now it has a space above the speaker, so you'll not have problems with/about this.
Never bought an Anker battery, i cant say too much about it, there are another threads about this battery in this section. But comparing ZL and Anker both have similar results.
I dont Know RavPower.
I have an ZeroLemon myself, everyday i got 9-12h screen, even after 1 year.
I bought one of these.

Hello guys,
I am only getting 2h SoT on my S4, the phone gets really hoooot and the battery got "bigger", so it's dying. Which one is probably the best one to get? Anker, Zerolemon, Ravpower or anything else? I used some Anker ones on my previous phone and was quite happy with them.
How much SoT/battery life could I expect on a battery like these?
Cheers!

I got a RAV Power battery for my S4 off of Amazon for 12 EUR and I've been using it for a week, on stock vanilla firmware (but this is another story).
I get out in the morning at 8.30am and I use my S4 in the car for navigation (Waze) and music (TuneIn Radio or Google Play Music) for 1h a day (30 mins in the morning and 30 mins in the evening), then some calls, emails, whatsapp, etc. (no games or exotic stuff) and I usually get back home with a 40% battery around 7pm.
A colleague at work bought a Duracell after market battery for 24.50 EUR and he's not satisfied as the new battery gets very hot during simple use and he have to charge it at least one time during the day.
It has been just a week, but I'm pretty satisfied with this RAV Power battery!
Zerolemon 7500mah user here nothing to complain about.
Music sounds good because it has a gap between the battery and the speaker it actually made the sound better or somewhat amplified because it has space inside the TPU case that comes with it.
Using this 7500mah for close to 2 years now and still gives me 10-12hrs SOT max per day.
I use iPhone charger 1A and charge it only when i sleep, upon waking up its full charge.
after inheriting a S4 im not very happy with battery life, its a replacement off the bay..ie fake..so which one should i go for,,im in the uk so i dont think all the battery makes are available to me easily..cheers
ZeroLemon and Anker seem to be popular replacements.

thanks, yep defo need a new one, 38% before bed time and 2% this morning, think ill go with anker over ravpower
im actually in two minds wheather the battery is knackered, i put it in safe mode last night and it drained 6%, maybe a app is causing it, gsam battery stats doesnt tell me anything is draining it, maybe im over thinking it and just need a new battery full stop, the last one was a cheapo off the bay
one thing i did notice is when i charge it to 100% gsam is telling me its at 1200mah, weird
If you're in Canada and want a cheap fix, the Source is clearing out some $0.96 CAD battery cases for the S4 (and S3). Lots of trade-offs with using a battery case, but it's the cheapest solution.

I bought a "NFC-compatible" Perfine battery and the NFC didn't work.
I'm a big fan of MPJ batteries - the standard size are maybe 10% better than stock, and I personally rock a 8,500mah battery all the time. Used on the S4, Note 3, Note 1, and others.

That's pretty good for a stock capacity battery
I bought a few days ago a 5.050mAh HSA battery the same size as Samsung, I'm waiting for the arrival. I had one on my Optimus G and it lasted a long time. Highly recommend!
