Searching for a better battery... - HTC Sensation

Hello,
I have some problems with the stock 1520mAh battery of the HTC Sensation.
Since I have an internet flatrate & mobile internet is always on, my battery drain is very high and empty very quickly.
Now I'm thinking to buy a better battery, where I see a difference between the stock battery.
I found this one on ebay with 2300mAh: >Klick<
What do you think? Has anyone experiences with this battery?
Thanks, ~Maik.

Anker is a great battery. Its a long lasting battery. Get it off Amazon not ebay as they have many fakes going around. Its made a great difference in my time!

If you get the ankers from ebay the legit sellers ebay name is " laptopmateusa "

And what about the 2300mAh battery? There are some good reviews and some bad...
But I think I will buy the anker battery.

Anker should be good but if you need extra juice go whit the 2300mah but personally i dont like the extra bulk the backdoor gives... I can get 4 hours of screen on time so im good

are 3000mAh batteries any good?

there are a lot of 3000mAh batteries on ebay... that are not expensive.. are they any good? how much more battery life will i get?
anyone has tried one of those 3000mah batteries?
EBay ones tend to be crap. Mugen s 3200mah is good and does the job reliabiy

Mugen is pretty expensive.. any other cheaper but good brand/model?
i am using mugen 3200, i will score it 8.5/10, the bad points are the case very loose and blocked flash light in a certain degree.
Nothing some blutack wont fix. And no I don't know. There's a post further down documenting some people's experiances with ebay if you want to look for it

Well if you willing to sacrifice your phone's look go ahead and try it, but it will get very ugly with that thickness...

Where can i buy one of those? i never seen such a big battery.
Remember you'll always get what you pay for. If you want a second battery buy an orginal one.
thx for all your advices
i finally opted for an oem battery for desire/nexus one
I'm got the 3200mAh from saido. It's a great battery and worth its price!

how much is it? where did u buy it?
The "ebay" batteries tends to have smaller capacity than announced.

(can't post links)
Exacly...anything over original 1400 is bs in my opinion. I've heard about 3000mAh for HTC Evo but that battery is much bigger in size and require custom back case.
i got myself a 3200mAh mugen battery from the states best thing i ever did lasting for 5 days now on one charge
I bought a 3000mAh Extended Battery from the seller.

what rom are you on when you have 5 days duration ?
It's great if you want your battery to last days without charge but terrible if you want a nice sleak phone due to the fact that the 3200amh batteries add extra thickness to the phone which really makes it look ugly in my opinion. Mugen power batteries are really good though they are expensive. I'd be weary about buying from eBay because although they may be cheaper, a lot of the times they're not the capacity stated and have bad quality lithium ions that simply don't hold a charge!
Can I buy it in Ukraine? Somebody know?
I have a 3000mAh battery, but the only way I can get a full charge is with an external charger.
Then I can get between 3-4days from 1 charge.
Charging the 3000mAh in my phone, doesn't seem to last any longer than a standard battery.

I wanna buy an extended battery..

But i don't know which one to go whit ?? Ankers are they good ? Or mugen is better also does charging these batteries takes alot of time compared to stock ?? Thanks

I'm using an Anker battery and it's really good, better than the original xe battery.
I charge the battery over night, so i can't tell you if it needs more time, but I think it should'nt take much more time than the original.
anker best
hi, the Anker's and Mugen are the best
Battery
I have this one http://www.ebay.nl/itm/330683288786 cheep and good, and I am very satisfied!
+1 bought the same one. Great battery.
Default one use for extra power in travel and etc.

Anker or ChiChiTech. Both are good. Havent tried Mugen
I personally like Anker better simply because of the price.

i have u solution
I been using a nice cover is a cover and a batterie called POWERSKIN i highly recomended to u
No matter what u do batterie will last you all day
I have one of the gold batteries and I don't really get more than a day. It is almost certianly bending the truth about it's capacity. I ordered an anker battery today as I'm not comfortable with this ultra cheap looking battery in my phone.
I'd go for an Anker.

Best battery?

I'd like to buy another battery with extended capacity. I read Anker 1900mAh should be a good one for example, but which one is the best?
Just buy the banker 1900 mah from amazon you can't go wrong.awesome battery budddy.

I'm dead happy with my Anker battery. Great value and proven to perform better than the stock battery.
I'm fairly happy with the Stock battery of my Sensation XE, but I hear a lot of people have the 1900mAh Anker and are even happier than I am!
Hi I'm really happy with Anker. It is affordable. But beware of fakes . EBay has had a few fakes being sold where if you peel back the paper on the battery It's really another battery under the sticker. I advise to purchase off Amazon or different web site than eBay for battery. My anker battery has improved + my battery life significantly! You will be happy with the results. Hope this helps! Best of luck.

Hi there, I am very very happy with my Anker battery! It makes quite a difference! I was fed up with my stock battery draining so fast. I got Anker to try out and its been wonderful! When you buy it buy it off amazon because eBay sometimes sells counterfeit . They put a sticker over the actual battery making it look like a long lasting battery when its really not. Just to be safe, is shop Amazon . You will be amazed At the difference the Anker will make! Hope this helps you out ! Best wishes!

Yea, I agree. Anker is the way to go.

Should have checked the manufacture date and the sellers reviews
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Sadly this is very common. There is a lot of fake batteries going around. This is why it's best to just buy a battery from a reputable dealer. It will cost more but at least your getting the real deal. Personally I've never had trouble with anker but I decided I needed more juice and just went with mugen. I got the big 3800mah battery. It was expensive but worth it for me. Mugen also had 1900Mah for about forty or thirty dollars. Get the battery directly from mugen because of the fakes floating around. I am very sorry this happened to you. Sometimes we live and learn. Hope you can get your money back. Best wishes

Did you buy it FROM Amazon or ON Amazon?
There's a HUGE difference.
Amazon is both a seller itself and a website that hosts other sellers.
Amazon is a reuptable seller.
But there are bad sellers who use Amazon as well.

Are you satisfied with Mugen 3800mah battery? What is the maximum battery timing without charge? Please reply.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Hi yes I'm very very happy with the 3800mah. It lasts about two days. With extremely heavy use about 20 hours. However it's not for everyone because it does make the phone thicker, new back is included. For me it didn't matter because I was after battery life and it don't bother me at all. I can still put phone in pocket and it feels good in my hand. It's really not a big deal but for some people it might be. If your after battery life then it's the only way to go! I know it's expensive but honestly for me it's worth it because battery was my biggest issue. If you do decide to get one make sure to calibrate instructions included. You won't worry about battery again! Make sure to get the 3800 it's been amazing! Honestly I can't say enough great stuff about it! You will stay on 100% for two hours with heavy use! For me it was the answer to my battery issues. Hope this helps and best wishes!

If you bought it somewhat recently, contact Amazon and tell them you want a new one.
Amazon is really awesome about returns and exchanges, especially when the item is faulty/broken/not as advertised. They'll pay the return shipping and everything.
Here's their policies.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=901888
I've never had even a remote problem returning something to Amazon. They are absolutely fantastic. Of course that's here in the US. I don't know if they have a different system in Germany, but I can't image they would have dramaticly different return policies.

Thank you so much for your detailed review.. I am considering the purchase of this battery, but as you said, I am worried about the thickness of the phone..
Well let see..
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
You know I got used to the thickness quite fast surprisingly.at first it was a bit awkward But for me I had had it with crappy battery life and it was no beauty contest, so the thickness really didn't bother me at all. In fact it just reminded me that finally I don't have to worry about my battery!
It still feels good in your hand but takes a bit of getting used to. After awhile you won't even notice it. It's just at first your like wow this is thick! Then as you use your device it simply becomes the normal. Just with amazing battery life! If you do decide to get one purchase directly from mugen to prevent any fakes or counterfeit battery. That's what I did. So many fakes going around! Also tip, get the 3800mah it's there newest improved battery and it's really amazing! The 3600 is the older model. Honestly I know it's expensive but in the long run it's worth it. It's just getting over the thickness. But it still goes in the pocket. Also I got a case for mine that clips on to stuff to carry it easier. The back that comes with it could be built better I think but the battery itself is completely awesome! I don't regret buying it. Really the thickness is the only part that you have to over come. And like I said believe or not you do get used to it. Hope this helps a bit. This is my honest review. If you can over come the thickness it's an amazing battery. Best wishes to you.

There's nothing wrong with it. The HTC reports the Anker battery as 1520 which is the stock value when you don't put a battery it recognises in. There is another thread somewhere on here which has gone through this fairly thoroughly.
