ANKER 1800mAh BATTERY SAMSUNG Epic 4G SPH-D700 GT-i9000

Hello Guys,
I got this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/ANKER-1800m...495901?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4cfb97109d
According my usage :
Before I went back to work : 40 % max Battery remaining
Now : 70 % (easily)
Perfect fit in the original back case.
I have an intensive usage of my Galaxy S (3G all the time , phone call , internet surf )
I love this battery!
Battery Monitor says that is a 1500 mAh
Kr,
Jérémy.

hello jeremy
does that battery fit in with stock backcover or is it to big? seems like a good price.
edit: didnt see ur whole post i may order one thank you :=)
but i didnt get ur last part, do u mean that the battery is actually 1500 mah and not 1800?

Hello,
In battery monitor I see 1500. But much better than the original one (1 year old)
Jérémy.

You do know that Battery Monitor uses an user defined value and you have to set it yourself in the settings?
Settings->monitoring-> battery capacity
Or did you use it to get an estimated capacity (under calibration, "measured")

i bought one yesterday evening but it will take time until i recieve it but when i can tell how good it is.
actually i wanted a samsung 1800 mah battery but the ebay seller had none left..so i bought this one..half the price, 9$ + 5$ shipment ~11 €
i just hope anker batteries are really good

So is this battery thicker than the original?

i assume it has the same size like the original samsung battery with 1800mah, which is slightly thicker than the 1500mah original battery but it fits under the original backcover

got it!
here 2 pics. it fits under the original backcase!
until now i am not able to say anything about the power, i will report if anybody wants to know it.

I'd rather go Samsung oem...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1277647

no because this is a thread about a 1800 mah ANKER battery and the other for the original samsung one

Αny news about it's actual power capabilities?

its much better than my old standard 1500mah battery!
i just had the 2nd load-cycle, and i can use my phone heavily a whole day with cyanogenmod 7(i think with stock roms the battery use is better)
I used my galaxy one over one hour for listening to music, ~1h display time, 3g always on, a few sms and after 12 hours i have 50% rest, compared to my old battery this is great ;-) for ~14 $ --> ~11 € with international shippment
i would buy it again!

lol the son of a ***** want 45$ for the battery now..

I think there is a 1900mAh Baggers available from Anker
It's available from Amazon.Co.uk
via the amazing XDA premium app and my SGS2

two pictures for the battery's lifetime with one charge.

2680mah battery review

Hey Guys!
I just wanted to share my experiences about this battery I found. I bought it on amazon, and tested over a few days with BMW on.This battery had an estimated 2700 (!) mah (estimated by battery monitor widget after 5 charge/discharge cycles), and its real. I really tried to kill it fast with wifi hotspot,bluetooth on, while streaming video from youtube over 3g, and it lasted 4-5 hours ! This battery worth every penny of its price! So much win with this one! I would highly recommend it for anyone who wants a new battery!
Since I am a new member, I cannot post my picture, please make it yourself:
dropbox.com/s/wdcfqx4zdp0oqu5/2012-11-18%2010.25.37.png
You can find it on amazon, or ebay!
Sorry for bad english!

Is it normal or double sized? If it's normal sized I'd highly doubt that the power declaration is right. Could I see a link please?

It is slim, so goes under the original back case. I cannot post a link here since I am a new member or I dont know why, so please copy this into the browser:
amazon.com/Ecell-2680MAH-EB575152VU-BUSINESS-BATTERY/dp/B008CYPKUG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1353229813&sr=8-1&keywords=i9000+battery+2680
I added a picture to the original post, please check it.
I have a Polarcell 1800 too, but this 2680 (produced by Ecell) is way more powerful!

Actually it looks like one of these fake batteries. Please test it for some more days and report back than - I'd appreciate that very much

These 'Golden Business Batteries' are something to be taken very carefully. I have one that was supposed to be a 1930 mAh one, but lasts way shorter than the stock 1500 mAh one.

That's why I'm saying. It's nearly impossible to get that big amount of capacity into such a small battery I'd say.

Look I would not suggest if it would be fake. I am using this battery for more than a month, and its real. I read those ****ty reviews about the 2430mah gold battery and others.. Just google it, you would not find any bad review from this 2680 mah battery, and its working like a charm. The reason the screenshot is just 5 cycle old is that I reflash my device almost every week becouse I am trying different ROMs, and I erase every data connected to the battery.
I just wanted to share my experiences, becouse I didnt find any review about these batteries. It is up to you if you are brave enough to buy one.

thanks for the review!!

So how Ia the battery holding up nowadays? Because im really dissapointed with getting a new galaxy s3 and its battery gets used uo so fast. If your going to get a smart phone they shiuld be smart and allow the customers to fully exhaust all its features. I hate apple but always had a iphone and the batery never let me down.

Working very well for me still, seems to not lose any of its capacity. It can easily last for two days with massive usage.

possible to guess the weight?

can we fit it to SGS+...pls

Not to hate on Apple, but oh please. My sister switched to iPhone (4s) recently after being fed up with faults on her HTC, battery life being one peeve, and I still see her charging her phone several times a day.

I'm not saying that all high capacity batteries are bad.
But my experience with a high capacity battery is not so good.
I bought a year ago a Mugen 3200 mAh batt. Now after 1 year it charges very quick but also discharges very quick. My original 1500 mAh batt now lasts longer.

Best aftermarket battery?

Hello
Im going to put a larger capacity battery in my Desire Z and I wanted some recommendations. Also, normal sizes (as in demensions); None that come with a additional cover to compensate for the normal size this making the phone bigger.

Ankers 1600mAh, lasts for me more than 2 days between charges. Got mine for a fiver off eBay, brand new.

Hi,
I'll also went with the Anker. 2 Days without charging even when using custom roms... Definetely a good choice for this Price!

riahc3, if you ask for advice, don't argue about there being higher capacity batteries, if you want the mugen go get it, but if you asked advice in the first place then don't get annoyed when people don't give you the answer you want to hear. Sorry, that's just the way I see it.
If you're after numbers rather than advice, take both. Look at my screenies, yeah I know I'm a light user, under clocked and had a sneaky charge in between but this was on CM10.1 build 15 which supposedly has battery problems, and as you can see I listened to music for a couple of hours as well. Also everyone else here has gotten at least 2 days between charge with Ankers.

battery info
I am also thinking about buying a new battery but I think that it doesn't matter how much mAh of the battery has. I think that real question is how will be after 6 months of usage. Most of these aftermarket batteries are start good but after few weeks or months they become useless. So we need real user feedback. Is there anyone who uses any of the aftermarket battery more than few months?
I've started to use JellyBaby v1.5 ROM and I've decided to buy new battery instead of new device.

I've been using the Mugen battery for over two years now. Still get good battery life, although playing games drains it pretty fast. I can last two full days if I try, but it's pushing it. One day is easy.

2 day is sufficient

I don't know about battery life of iPhone 5, S3, Note2, etc but I think that under normal circumstances battery life of our phones should be 2 days.
Do you use home-screen widget or lock screen widget? Does they have any effect on battery life?

aftermarket battery? you're better off getting a oem, a lot of aftermarkets don't live up to the levels they advertise.
I recommend the evo 4g design battery, it fits perfect in our devices at a whopping 1520 mah compared to stock's 1300mah

A 200 mah difference wont matter
But 3 times stock mah means something

*I am looking for something with more than 2600maH that is also the same size as the stock battery. I dont want a battery that ends up making a bulge in the back of my phone, or end up getting a super fat battery and needing a large back cover*

***I CAN NO LONGER FIND THE 3000MAH ZEROLEMON BATTERY ON SALE***

I picked up 2 zerolemon 3000mah extended batteries and a charger for $21 on amazon. They are slightly thicker but hardly noticeable. My factory Samsung back cover still fits just fine. I get at least another 1-4 hours depending on my use. Will last me 12-16 hrs total with wifi, bluetooth and gps running all day.

Hey mate, is it safe to put a much bigger battery than the stock ??
Will it be an issue during charge ??

CBS, using a bigger battery than stock is fine. I've used 7-8 and4oid phones with extended batteries and have never had an issue. they will however take longer to charge due to the increased size.
I used to use a zerolemon 7500 mah battery in my galaxy s3. It was great. Took twice the time to charge but well worth it. Only plug it in to charge at night.

No problem. Sounds like a 7500 mah battery sounds like it will suit your needs. Internet, gaming, streaming movies and music will take it's toll on even the best batteries. A 7500 mah battery will last me all day with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and gps all day for work. The average user will get 1-3 days depending on use. With the right rom and kernel can do wonders.

I never use NFC, so 3000maH is great. Im gonna buy it soon

Glad I could help. I haven't used the NFC on my s3 or my s4. I tried playing with it but it's not a need. You guys will be happy to know if you buy a wireless charging receiver it will fit under the stock battery cover as well with the zl 3000 mah battery. I love wireless charging. No more laying in bed and reaching around on the floor in the dark trying to find the cord for my phone.

Best battery?

What is the best battery for s4? I am buy aliex. What is your suggestion
I am sorry very bad english

I purchased the Anker 5200mAh battery a few months ago. Performance is great and I actually like the added bulk. I can easily get two days of battery with heavy use.

Anker 7800mAh. Best thing I bought so far. Makes your phone's weight similar to brick, but it's worth it. Lasts me 2 days.

My battery is not original may be it is 2600 mah may be ))) my screen time is 2 hour

What about the ZeroLemon ones? I've heard they're good

I've been using ZeroLemon 3000mAh batteries for the last year or so. They're great. They add a tiny bit of bulk to the back of the phone, no big deal. You should know that they malfunction and deteriorate after like one year so you have to replace it then ASAP.

zerolemon 7500mah user here for a year now and this beast battery is still performing well...
heavy gaming ( clash of clans ) it gives me 13-15hrs Screentime...
charge it when im sleeping...
Moderate usage no gaming data connection on ( when is need to check something ) off when not in use. roughly 2-2 1/2 days.
my s4 can act like a powerbank aswell by the use of an USB OTG..

Ye, it is very nice choise! I have bought it to

Back then i had 2 choices.
To buy a new original battery which i am not sure if im gonna recieve a legit original one or just another knockoff. ( same screentime 3-4hrs max )
Or to buy a zerolemon which will definitely give me a better screentime guaranteed

Using the ravpower 2800 mah battery. I don't think there's a huge difference, but it lasts longer than the OEM, obviously because it's newer, but Aldo because it has that extra 200mah.
Can't go wrong with this battery, and it's only $10, compared to the ridiculous prices they're charging for the OEM version. Also, way too many counterfeit batteries out there to order an OEM.

But not real happy w/ it so far seems to drain faster than my Anker. Will give it a few charge cycles first to see if it settle down. Batterey Stat only showed it was about 3800 mAh, which is to be expected.

Still not sure about this thing...seems to be drainer faster the more I use it. Was charged to 100% the other morning, just sitting on my desk no use, dropped to below 60% by noon. Contacted seller , who suggested draining it completely then recharge. Will give it a few more tries, and return if it doesn't improve.
Popped my Anker back in yesterday, thing works like a boss.
