[Q] 1600mah battery?

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.

Extended Batteries?

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.

2500mAh battery

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2500mAh-Ext...Accessories&hash=item4ab7eb32da#ht_2501wt_952
someone tried this? someone can expect how much this is good? and etc...

read the feedback on ebay. not 1 good feedback about the batteries and apparently they are only 1700mAh

It is recommended to use only original batteries.
Take a look at Power Pack. I've got one, it's very nice

I want to buy a larger battery too, which one is your suggestion?
Greetz Bonnsay

what is Power Pack @przemcio510

It's kind of backpack for our sgs, cant paste there a link coz im new but type in google "samsung galaxy s power pack" you'll see
it's kind of extra back case of phone
I guess +extra 1500mah

somebody can share a link for a good and strong battery?
better will be that fit our original case...
but if there something that is good and have a massive power (high mAh)
than share it either! plz plz plz!

Look for Anker batteries on ebay, they are 1800mAh instead of the original 1500mAh and apparently good quality (I use two their batteries, so far so good).

buy polarcell batteries! search for it on amazon. They are true 1800 mah and they are considered the best without a new back cover. There's another thread here about that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1277647 read some random pages in this threat and you'll see that everybody is happy with their polarcell (better than the anker). i've bought one this week, can't wait for it to arrive

indeed, i would recommend the original battery of the samsung epic 4g, has 1800mAh and fits perfect into the sgs.
i wouldn't recommend third party batteries, they're never worth the money..well, however, i don't like it also, when the phone is so clunky..

Battery
i recommend you to buy samsung 4g battery than fits prity good into the sgs.
my friend did it and have no problem till now

I Had a look at some of these batteries. I currently own the 1800mAh Anker battery. It was slightly cheaper than the Polarcell but it definitely doesn't lack in performance.
Since I bought the Anker I've been getting 2 days of charge running ICS so far. The Polarcell's are apparently better but I was pretty low on cash
If value is what you're worried about go Anker. If you want outright performance go Polarcell!
The el-cheapo 2500mAh aren't worth it. Some reviews have pointed out that they're just relabelled 1200mAh batteries.

For an original part and a little better, try i9003 battery. It has 1650 mAh, it's a little bigger, but if fits perfect, and it last longer. Obviosly. Good luck

I bought the "Polarcell 1800mAh" because I heard much good about it. There are no problems and I'm very happy.
It costs about 13€

A 2500mAh battery should logically be heavier and bigger than a normal one (I mean 1500 here). It can't be sold as a real 2500mAh since you would really need a new supersized battery cover for it.

I've bought a 1800 mAh Polarcell Battery after I read the good reviews here on xda. Now, after 10 months of use, I decide that is the best battery for the SGS. And it doesn't double the housing and the weight.

I am using polarcell 1800mah for two months.Very good!

do you know if they if battery is built in NFC or is it on the phone? I thought I saw somewhere that the NFC was part of the battery on the s4? and if it is, do you know if the anker battery has this too?

guess that they are going to do so, when i check back gs3 batteries, they provided basic mah unit while you have more options for extended batteries, am keeping an eye on it

On s3 they extended at the same stock size and yes was nfc compatible can't see how it won't be for s4. Bummer if they don't put in More mahs though.

What's the point of 2600 mah battery? Just to use as a spare one?

it's not yet 30th but battery is available now , im getting for me s4, pity that they still have no over size units
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CBTTA4A/

i got the Onite 2600mAh Battery on order. it's only $6 and i have the S3 version which works pretty good. not sure about NFC, but i only need it as a backup battery in emergency. they also have Onite 2 batteries plus the dock charger for $15

Looks like Hyperion has an extended battery for S4 now on Amazon.

Is there a website where they review batteries like these to see how they fair as far as the stock batteries?

I got a pair of the Anker batteries for my Atrix. They work pretty well and have lasted longer than the OEM one. But the oem wasn't holding a full charge anyway. It was nice that I got it with the universal charger. It'll charge just about any phone battery. Sometimes you just need that extra battery when you're out all day. Batteries drain when the GPS is running.. Ingress.. shame on you!

here are the extended batteries:

just got an email back from ZeroLemon,
they say mid may is the release for their Galaxy S 4 battery-pack/case combos !!
i responded asking if they were taking pre-orders, and if they could say the mAh capacity.
since the s3 pack was 7000, id say the S 4 will be similar.
*excellent*

Good and working Battery Extended? Any Suggestions?

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.

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.

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
