I am planing to buy an external battery. I will be happy to obtain one full charge for my Nexus 4. In fact, I only get without charge by the end of the day, when going back home, but since I have 1h by metro, it would be nice to be able to use my phone there. But since I am buying, I would like to have as much as I can (and 1 full charge seems reasonable to me).
I am looking these two:
First:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-BATTERI..._Batteries&hash=item20ce1e7c77#ht_3806wt_1346
Pros: it is only 8,69 €
Con: It is 2600 mAh (barely over the Nexus 4 battery, so I am not sure whether it will fully charge my phone or not)
Second:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-BATTERI..._Batteries&hash=item564ff32d35#ht_4794wt_1346
Pros: it is 5000 mAh, so it should do the job
Con: costs the double 17 € (not expensive though).
(there are other colours, I just liked the greens ones)
So, any suggestions? Have you seen other usb batteries with similar prices/charges?
I couldn't find a thread detailing the most convenient portable usb battery chargers, so we could start it here (or please, post the link to the respective thread)
Have you check DX.COM? They also have a lot to choose from with different charges. If you don't mind the wait, might be another option. I bought my MOMAX Portable 5600mAh Li-ion External Battery w/ LED Flashlight from them(cost is US $41.20) Not sure about the shipping to Europe, but to Canada is free)
Thanks! The shipment is free to France also, and they have similar products to those I saw in ebay (which comes from Hong Kong, so it won't be any faster).
I think I will go for this one Multi-Functional Portable External 5200mAh Battery for iPhone 4 / 4S / Samsung - Black, which is only 11,22 € and one good review.

I don't think you will go wrong with that. Even if it's just 4400mAh or so, it is still 4x the charges of N4. I just received my N4 yesterday, so couldn't tell you how many time it will charge with Momax. The reason I go for that specific one is due to they use Samsung battery(You can see their box have a sticker saying "Cell made by Samsung')
Thanks again. I just order it (11,59 € with free shipment to France)
I've just got delivery of a 12000 mAh portable charger. Will update on it's effectiveness when I've had a chance to test with my N7 & N4.

i just bought an Anker astro3 for £25.99 from amazon uk.
10,000mAh @ 3Amps total output from 2 ports.
it's about 10% bigger and heavier than the N4
i also have the Tecknet 7000mAh / 2.1A equivalent which is about 20% smaller/ lighter than the anker
and a just mobile pp08 4400mAh /1a which is about 1/2 the size/ weight of the Tecknet

not much to say really. they all do what they say on the label. i find myself using the "just mobile" one the most on account of its small size and get ~1.9 charges out of it; and the others proportionately more according to their rating.
the 2A+ current rating (and dual outputs) on the bigger packs i find useful for charging tablets, cameras etc. simutaneously.
great products, you can't go wrong with any of them really. hope this helps.
I got this one for Christmas: http://amzn.com/B005K7192G
So far, I really love it! I can charge my Nexus 7 and my Nexus 4 with it and still have son juice left over. The flashlight feature is kinda handy (it never hurts to have an extra flashlight!) And I like knowing how much power is left. The versatility of being able to charge any USB device is cool too. It charges pretty fast too. I can plug it into my phone, stream internet radio and listen to it through my bluetooth headphones and it still charges the battery on the phone! Overall, its just super handy to have (I didn't have any kinda backup power supply before).
Good luck,
Billy

If you're anything like me, the sexy thin-ness of this phone is one of the reasons you decided on it, and to put a powerskin monstrosity on it isn't an option; especially at $50 on sale! I personally have had an Xpal 8000mAh "portable" charger for a long time, and love it, but its fairly bulky, and takes a while to recharge, so it's gotten less practical of late.
So I did a little poking around on Amazon and found this:
The PowerGen Mobile Juice Pack.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004UP491W/ref=mp_s_a_3?qid=1338131488&sr=8-3
I plan to pick up two and always have one on me, while the other one is charging, and for $44 that's $6 cheaper than the PowerSkin on sale, so is a no-brainer for me.

You know you dont always have to keep the PowerSkin on it, right? You could just put it on when you actually need the extra power?

Kind of makes the PowerSkin pointless that way, doesn't it? I mean you could spend $50-$60 on a 1500mAh back up charger that either makes your phone ugly and provides little protection while on,, or $22 for a 2900mAh back up charger that lets you keep the case of your choice on the phone, including no case at all... I can't see a good argument for the PowerSkin, sorry.
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA Premium
I wouldn't necessarily put mine in the PowerSkin at all times, but when I do, it'd mean not having to carry around a separate pack. Days that I know I'll be out/using my device ALL DAY that I'd want the extra power, basically.
I already have a general case to use on regular days, I'd swap it out with the PowerSkin on days I felt it was necessary to have the extra power.
*shrug* to each their own.
I agree with everything said here - the case is obnoxiously big and it is completely unnecessary for the nub coming out of the side. I also agree that if you had a time when you needed the extra juice, maybe a function where you would be hammering the camera away, you could throw the skin on. To me, $60+ is unreasonable to use once in a while. I'm probably going to get the S3 which will come stock with 2100 mAh and then I'm sure we could find a 2500+ mAh - plenty to go around and no extra thickness.
I think this Anker battery pack is a much better deal

5600mAh for $34 basically mean you can give the phone a few full charges and it also include a bunch of different of adapters to charge different devices.
I was actually researching after I noticed that the Zagg one was 50% off for Memorial day (6000 mah for $50), but it has AWFUL reviews, so I went digging for a different model.
The reviews on the PowerGen Mobile Juice models are overwhelmingly positive -
5200 mah (single usb port) for $33.99
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005VBNYDS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&m=AKBC2HTGGFZVH
8400 mah (two usb ports) for $49.99
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0073F92OK/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=AKBC2HTGGFZVH
There's a bunch of options, but the 2900mAh version in the op I like because it is thin like the phone and doesn't stretch my pocket even with the phone in there with it. Those others aren't as slim/convenient, but are still better than the PowerSkin.

The Anker branded has 5600mAh also at same price and a lot of good reviews like the PowerGen.

Hi guys,
is anyone using any of these when out and about.
Are there any reviews or recommendations for some good battery cell manufactured chargers.
there is so many on ebay and amazon, its hard to tell which ones retain charge and are good quality and which ones are cheap rubbish
I don't know how it will work out in terms of long term reliability, but I have this one:
EasyACC 12000 mAh
It seems to work pretty well. It charges as fast as the stock charger on the high output ports per the Samsung Galaxy charge app thing. As you can see...460+ reviews and 4.5 stars so there is some evidence that it is a good product. It was highlighted back in May on Android Police so I picked one up.

I have the New Trent iCarrier which is 12000mAh but I don't use it for my phone... I use it for my tablets. It works fine for me. It has two USB ports which is nice if I need to have two things going. Not sure how long it takes to charge... I've always just left it plugged in overnight when needed.
Anker makes exceptional products for the price.
http://www.amazon.com/10000mAh-Ligh...=UTF8&qid=1373747195&sr=1-1&keywords=anker+3e
I got one that is similar in specs as a gift and it has worked as advertised. I will probably replace it an Anker in the near future. You can charge your S4 relatively quick with any of the 2A chargers. These things take forever to completely charge though. Mine only has a 1A input, so It'll take around 10hrs to go from 0 to 100. If that isn't an issue, any battery pack should do.

Duracell Powermat GoPower Longhaul backup battery
it says it charges phones and tablets, but some comments was referring to 2.1a on top port, my questions is if i were to buy something like this can it charge a nexus tablet?
i figured at least for 11 bux and 8800 mAh its a good deal since it is duracell, but don't need another one if it cannot charge tablets, I have some cheap no name one that for some reason stop charging tablets when it drop below 75% figured it would be a good time to invest a few dollar on a new one.
Yes
I'd buy something like this 10,000 mah external battery:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009USAJCC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
From Anker and costs about $26 USD right now. I've been using one for my Nexus 7 (2013) and my S3 for over a year. It should charge up that 6700mah batter in the Nexus 9 with no problems.
Or for $40 USD 15,000mah http://www.amazon.com/15000mAh-Portable-Ultra-High-External-Motorola/dp/B00D5T3QK4/ref=pd_sim_cps_22?ie=UTF8&refRID=1WTQY82HGAXJ9YGBN3BY
and there's many many other versions of similar capacities & prices. Just read the reviews for the good ones.
Enjoy!
I've had GREAT luck with Anker brand devices. They're top notch in my book.
OP, the one that you posted is very expensive. There are much cheaper options that are not nearly as expensive. I would investigate the Anker or TechMatte external power banks- those are the best products for the most reasonable price. Since I'm still new here, I can't post links, but I would strongly advice either of those two. My husband has the anker one at his desk, and I have the techmatte one. We both really like them, so I would say that either works well.

I‘ve been using the bigger version with the same appearance and with 15,000mAh capacity. It's great!
I've just bought a used N910F and wanted to get myself some spare batteries and an external charger. I've just moved up from a Note 3 and previously, an S3 LTE and had multiple batteries for both, with external chargers and I'd like to get the same for the Note 4.
I'm based in the UK and so I'm somewhat limited to what products I can get hold of. I'd like to get one of the Samsung external charger but I was wondering - as these are just running from the mains charger that you're using to charge the phone, is there any issue buying one of the non-Sammy, generic ones? I'd assume that the charger takes care of any overcharging issues - is that correct? If anyone has a link to any cheap genuine Samsung units, I'd be very pleased to have a look. I found one for £30 at Amazon, but it's a 1-3 month wait!
As for spare batteries, I've always gone for the Anker batteries and found them pretty good, and it's looking as though that's the only option for me at the mo - Amazon have them for £14 shipped where as the Powercell units are over £18. Any genuine ones for around £20? I'm not about to waste my money on the ebay cheapies!
Thanks for your time guys! :fingers-crossed:
Amazon buy anker,mpj,etc
I just recently purchased a standard Samsung battery from Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00VIK5DOY
Although there are cheaper options, I made sure that I selected the one that was sold by Amazon themselves on the basis that they are very unlikely to sell fakes - the one I got for £10.63 with next day delivery on Prime certainly seems genuine to me.

Thanks for getting back to me with an actual product. How is the battery holding up? I'm really happy with the Anker one I bought - I'm getting about 1.5 days of moderate use and 5+ hours of SOT between charges. I don't use NFC at the mo so I don't know if this supports it, but as things stand I'd be happy to get another one or two. Does anyone know how to tell if theses "genuine Samsung" batteries are indeed, genuine? I remember reading up on it when I had the Note 3 and it was really tricky visually.
What about these external chargers - anyone had any experience of the non-Samsung ones?

The battery works fine for me, and is a definite improvement on the tired genuine battery it replaced.
Well, I've bought, what's labelled as a "genuine samsung extra battery kit". It's currently charging the enclosed battery in the external cradle. I'll try it in the phone to check if the NFC works to be sure that the battery is a genuine Sammy one, but any ideas on how to check the charging cradle?
Just bought a replacement battery direct from the Samsung UK site - £25 but worth it for the peace of mind. Free delivery.
EDIT: Ordered at 5:00pm, it's now the next morning and my battery has arrived - great speed for free delivery! (Now, if only Samsung could get their firmware updates out as fast!)
EDIT: Genuine Samsung packaging (with the window on the front of the box, and a plastic container for the battery) and manufacture date of last month, so fresh off the assembly line
I've just charged up the battery that came in the "kit". Appearance wise it looks identical (but dont most of them?!) but I just tried it with NFC and that worked - I thought the fakes didn't have the NFC chip - or have some of them started adding it or have I just got a genuine one for a really good price?!

Where did you buy it from?
I've looked around with no luck. Considering that most of the "lipstick" ones must have a regular 18650 battery inside, the 3A output is *amply* inside the range of good batteries output (several manufacturers offer 18650 batteries capable of constant 10A output with 3.500mAh capacity, I hope that there are products like this.
Thank for the help.

While interesting is different from what I'm seeking. 6p has got a 3.500mAh battery, I would be good with a power bank worth one full charge. I come from a Note 3 and I always went out with a spare battery in my bag. Weight was less than 100g and size... well it's a Note 3 battery, I think the idea is clear. Now the "lipstick" shaped power banks are the right size and given their capacity it's obvious they have a 18650 inside... but I can't find any supporting USB C fast charging (5V/3A).
This seems interesting, too bad it's not buyable anywhere at the moment (not that I can find, I'm in Europe).

Yes it does. To be honest I'm surprised at the dearth of products on offer that support USB-C fast charging. It's been adopted on enough phones that I was expecting something more in the sub 10,000mAh range. Bringing a 10,000mAh with you is beyond the scope of even heavy phone use on a daily basis. Whereas I can see myself needing to top up at most one full charge during a day. For that, considering the loss due to efficiency, a 4,000mAh power bank would be enough for Nexus and other phones.
Let's hope that this LeEco power bank comes to US/Europe soon (or at least to websites such as GearBest and GeekBuying).
The official product webpage: http://cn.lemall.com/product/products-pid-1001514.html
I can recommend the ORICO 10000mAh usb-c battery pack.
It's not 3A, but 2.4A, however it still charges my Nexus 6P in about 1h 30m.
The good thing is that it supports charging two devices at the same time (one over the usb-c, and one over the standard usb port).
It also looks great, it's worth checking out.
I think there's a review of it here on xda.

To the question actually asked, unless you can fit this beast in one of your pockets, I'm pretty sure there's nothing out there that will meet your needs..

after having this phone for about a year, the battery health has gone down so that it is almost always dead by 7-8pm now.. and carrying around a battery has become absolutely necessary in case I go out for dinner or drinks w/ friends after work...
when I have my bag w/ me.. the Orico is fine but when I'm going out w/ just a jacket.. I would like a smaller lipstick sized solution too..
Its frustrating that even after a year (and now w/ launches of the Pixels), its still so hard to find USB-C accessories :-/

Ever seen this one? It's size is manageable, it's a GMYLE 10000mAh and has a micro USB in, just in case you don't have a type C cable around
Thanks, but I really would like something that took the 18650 battery form factor and built a charger around it. I know their capacity, I know they are more than enough for whatever need I might have. Once I have a full charge with me I'm set. Unfortunately I'm not finding it... I might even accept to forfeit the USB C fast charging capacity if there was one...
I use this one and I love it. Also has a nice extra usb port so you can charge your 6P alongside another device, or charge a device while the battery pack charges. I get probably 3 full charges out of it.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01A6HKP7E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Single 18650 requires voltage step up and won't fill the battery,biggest 18650 I've seen is 3400 mah. That is about the size of 6p battery but its not a 100% efficient process. You lose some from the step up to 5 volts and lose some to heat and some to resistance of connectors and cable.

I come from a Note 3 and I always went out with a spare battery in my bag. Weight was less than 100g and size... well it's a Note 3 battery, I think the idea is clear. Now the "lipstick" shaped power banks are the right size and given their capacity it's obvious they have a 18650 inside... but I can't find any supporting USB C fast charging (5V/3A).

Check out this one here. Although the Ebay website's description is incomplete, other websites clearly indicate the Aukey PB-Y5 is capable of 5V-3A output. Looks like the ticket for one full charge. Unfortunately they are not shipped from the US yet so I will wait. Credit goes to MrTemz.

This one works rather well for me. The US link to the same company mentioned above.

Oh man, THANK YOU. Even better ('cause it saves me a little money), I found the AUKEY PB-Y8 which is only for USB Type C. In Europe, Amazon carries it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Cell-Pho...-Input-Output-Cable-Devices-Nexus/B01M0UEMYV/ (not only for UK). Thank you so much!
