Does it come with suspension cables to help hold that brick to your face on long calls? I use a Bluetooth, but since most don't, seriously, how are you going to support that monster on your phone's back?
I'm all for making these phones a little thicker with the QI charging battery covers, but I never understood those ridiculous batteries and thick covers.... but people love them, I guess! They keep making them for every new phone that comes out!

Sign up for Ingress, then you'll wish they made 15,000 mAh batteries.
That game uses sucks through your battery like there's no tomorrow, even with undervolting.

I have Ingress, I just don't use it as often as most people do! But I hear ya on that....
+1 on the Ingress. I tried it once on my Atrix and it nearly drained my battery to dead in like 30 mins. However, I think 7000mAh might be overkill for most people. Removable batteries FTW.
a external battery? will get my phone bulky
btw ... i see that anker has the market first s4 battery, but its 2100mah, do u think they guys will have at least 2600mah soon?

Surely easier just to carry a spare battery in your wallet?
Unless of course you're planning a month long trip in the jungle.
not to mention if a battery that big were to explode! you might be left with a stump of a leg!
I say that, but assuming it is a quality battery, a case that big might be nice for some people. I prefer slim, and carry an extra battery in my car or desk.
I use this one my S3 and it's amazing, best extended battery out there, I've gotten 3 day runs out of it.
And you guys are overreacting ahaha, it really isn't that big and it really adds some much needed weight to the phone and looks/feels much better then the alternative options out there obviously other then carrying around a spare battery and switching but that's a hassle keeping both charged.
A lot of the kernel devs over on the sprint s3 use it as well to try and get the best battery life possible with their constant kernel tweak updates - we call it squeezing 7000 lemons :thumbup:

ive already been in contact with ZeroLemon and they told me,
the extended battery will be released mid May.
i also asked about the capacity, but they weren't willing to tell me.
we can expect 7000+ mAh for sure though.
I like that the cover actually fits over the entire phone instead of making it look pregnant. I still do have concerns about how large it will make this phone though.

That's cool, but this phone is already huge, in the picture it makes it look like it adds 20% more height and 10% more width. For battery it might be worth it tho, hehe. Anyone know how much it is? ... oh just saw $70 ... ouch, hmm. I bought an original second battery on eBay for $20, and it's doing the trick for those times when I run too low
Agree. A 2nd battery is good enough for me. Don't wanna add more weight / size to the phone

Don't worry bella, it's no bigger or heavier than the GIANT shells/cases/whatever many of us decide to put on our phones anyway.
It weighs 2 oz and ADDS 1450mAh battery capacity.
I'll probably get one to use on trips, etc. Not much of a daily driver for me at that weight. The Infuse weighs just under 5 oz naked.

I guess the reasoning is here that you have the 2nd battery already attached to the phone, and you don't have to carry it around separately somewhere.

*STING* ... lol, guess I deserved that, haha. If I see a big bulge in your pants, I'll remember it's your phone tho, so I'm not confused it might be something else, ehhe *sting back!*...
At 1450 mah it's not spectacular, but great for a road trip or flights to Asia... I'd just as soon carry extra batteries at $25 each, since I can get 1750 mah x 3 for the same price you paid for 1450, but I definitely understand the all-in-one concept, makes sense.
I wonder how long it will be before the line gets blurred between a 7" tablet and a 4.5" phone... I like the Dell streak aside from the fact it's dell, so maybe soon...

I do tend to think of my Infuse as a mini-tablet that is more or less pocketable. In fact, I haven't touched my iPad since I got it.
My fiancee did suggest I leave my phone in the car when we went to my daughter's kindergarten graduation today. It does create quite a bulge. I'm sure she didn't want me garnering any extra attention from the soccer moms. She tends to be the jealous type.

Yeh, I think guys and girls carry messenger bags or purses or some sort of backpack many places, so a few years ago I'd have called you crazy for suggesting a 4.5" phone, but now that I have one, I kinda want an updated 7" Galaxy Tab w\ voice\data capability. I almost pulled the trigger and bought the International Version of the Galaxy Tab 7" (it's unlocked, has voice and SMS enabled)... but given the slow processor I opted to wait until a more viable option comes out soon. I never hold a phone up to my head, and 90% of my use is text\data.... so I think it's my next natural step in evolution.
And LOL on the comment about the soccer moms w\ phone in pocket, hahaha

I don't think it will make that much of a difference. It's the same as plugging it into the charger. Besides, the stock battery is replaceable and cheap.
Now if I were using the offGRID case on the iPhone, I might wonder about the long term effect on that internal, hard(er) to replace and (more) expensive battery.

The 2100 maH Galaxy Nexus battery. It's posted all over the forum. About $19-21 at Amazon when it's in stock and they don't try to sneak you an 1850 maH battery like they did me, then tell me the 2100 was out of stock.
May or may not require modification for perfect fit. Fits fine for some, others (like me) had to shave a bit of stuff off the battery to get it to fit perfect.
K thanks, I'll make sure its in stock before they send me stock maH

No modifications are necessary, the battery comes with a new cover.
You do have to charge the phone completely (i let mine charge overnight), then wipe the battery status, then charge it again for at least an hour.
I use a Mugen standard size one. Maybe it's just the way I use it, but it seems to give me a few extra hours a day consistently. I almost never get an extended battery because no one ever seems to make decent protective cases for the phone with it mounted.
I can't say they're the best, or even that great, but I just bought 2 batteries and a charger for $10 on ebay. That way if my phone decides to die, I've got spares.
Just ordered the 2 Anker 2200mAh Li-ion Battery with charger set, should have em tomorrow. Right now I'm getting a full day with moderate usage. Battery seems pretty popular so should do well.
I get about a work day with moderate usage. Text, browsing, tapatalk and about 15 mins of tethering. Mostly text.
About 8-10 hours.
A bigger battery would be convenient but ugly imo.

Wile the 2100 may work well for you, with the location and the way i use my phones, i have to have the bigger battery. It's great to see what the 2100 is capable of.
I'll end up getting one of those for my Fiancee, as she needs to be able to use an otterbox case.

I get the same battery life as you and it practically lasts me the whole day and then some. The Zerolemon will probably give an extra hour or so screen on time assuming the mAh rating is correct.

I bought it primarily as an oem-sized backup battery. Instead of buying OEM, I'm just buying from ZeroLemon. I already have zerolemon's 7500mah for long hauls.
I'll probably wait for the official samsung extended battery. It's always good, NFC and marginally thicker.
i'll be curious to hear how they hold up charge length wise to the oem batteries once people have had a chance to charge/discharge them for awhile. Hopefully it will be good.
Any way to get this in the UK? Amazon.com's shipping costs are high and takes ages!
What thickness is this compared to stock battery? I looked around but didn't find anything.

Although I'll see how it is once I actually get it. I'll keep you guys posted for those that are hesitant to buy!
Just bought one as well. I love hte 7500mah extended battery, but if I'm ever in the slim mood, I'll surely turn to this over stock.
I've never used NFC and don't really plan on it.
I wonder why they don't include NFC? Maybe dropping it allows them to squeeze in more cells? Odd that they drop while most others include it.

I have been using the Zerolemon 7500 mah battery for about 2 weeks and I am blown away about how well this battery preforms. It has lasted me 1 day and 21 hours with still 20% of battery left. This battery comes with NFC, TPU case, and great customer service. Overall, I love this extended battery! :laugh::good:
Here's my video review:
What was your screen on time and all that jazz?
As I've said in the past.
There are only really 2 options I think people should consider.
1) Stock with swap outs with Samsung charger and battery.
2) Zerolemon 7500 mah battery.
I've been very happy with my ZL 7500 MAH battery. Don't have any glaring issues that stick out right now that I have to mention. The only drawback *MIGHT* be the weight, but I don't find a problem with it.

So there is actually a space between the battery and the speaker which allows for the air to reverberate.
Capacity wise...wow, but I would rather carry an external charging pack than destroy the aesthetics of the phone. Not for me but if you travel regularly, it will be perfect.

The bigger issue with battery exchange is the type of protection that you're looking for in your case.
If you have a case like a defender or any other rather case that is rather time consuming to put on and remove, then battery exchange is not exactly ideal solution.
Also having another free floating item in your pockets is rather not ideal either.
Most people would rather not have to carry 2 items when they can carry 1.
Granted for some aesthetics trumps function, so to each their own.
Zerolemon 7500mah Battery Review
Hey, guys! I also did a review on this battery on my Youtube channel (there's a link in my signature) Got some crazy battery life with it!

I have been using the Zerolemon 7500 mah battery for about 2 weeks and I am blown away about how well this battery preforms. It has lasted me 1 day and 21 hours with still 20% of battery left. This battery comes with NFC, TPU case, and great customer service. Overall, I love this extended battery! :laugh::good:
Here's my video review:

Seems great.
Using zerolemon for 2 days now.. so far so good.. quite heavy but I like the feel when your using it.. and the case was impressive, the audio sounds even better because of the case design.. ill update my experience after two weeks

I'm interested in one of these batteries but I'm not a fan of the huge cases

There are cut outs on the bottom, so the sound is forced out of the bottom of the phone, I prefer it more than the sound coming out the back.

I've been using this battery for a while now it's flawless!
The single downside (apart from the obvious weight and size that people seem to argue from the get go)
the sound isn't as loud as when using the stock battery, however the space between the bottom of the battery and the handset itself has enough room to fold a piece of card to ensure the speaker is kept clear and thus the sound reaches the bottom ports in the case as desired, this may not sound pretty or a particularly advanced method, but it works and you can't see this method with the case on anyway.
Give it a try I assure you, you will notice the difference!
As for the only charge once a month on the instructions... I contacted ZeroLemon...
To allow the battery to fully drain to 0% once a month, the other times charge from 2%

I always charge around 2-5% and allow it to die fully once a month.
The other thing you can do when using this, assuming you're rooted...
Two apps; Android Tuner & BatteryCalibration
Android tuner > Battery Manager > Calibration > Manage > Edit Current Battery > Name: ZeroLemon Capacity: 7500
BatteryCalibration will tell you exactly what to do. However, Android tuner has been the more accurate of the two methods.
* In both methods ensure battery is full (100%) before doing this.
Hope this helps.
Make sure not drop your phone with this battery, if is so heavy, when my phone dropped to the floor, it likes a rock, cracked the phone screen to pieces.

How does warranty cover when you use a battery like this? Void?

Well I was lucky to get 10-12hrs on stock battery so I am happy with the improvement.

Just got my anker 7800 mah battery I actually like the case better than the ZL rugged or tpu case. Plus the battery doesn't cover the speaker. Not really noticeably thicker than the zl tpu case.

Ordered the same capacity, different brand 2 days ago. Wonder how long 7500mah will last. I get 2 days of normal use with stock. :laugh:

I haven't seen any thread on this so I decided to start one. I've been using the zerolemon 3000mah(what they marketed it as) batteries after my stock one bloated and gave out. Well, the problem is the wall charger that they come with is very low quality. So I've been looking at the official samsung battery kit and was wondering if it will be able to charge my stock-sized zerolemon's too.
Those who are using it, feel free to comment and discuss. [emoji2]
It works great!
I've been using it and it works great it lets me keep my battery in good health getting a full recgarge and discharge it charges the batteries really fast as well althougj im just using the stock battery im sure you wont have a problem charging youre larger size you just may not be abel to close the door on charging kit which isnt much of a problem

I lucked out
I actually got lucky lol my grandmother went garage selling and she bought a box of stuff that had different electronics in it and it was actually in the box she picked up for 10 bucks lol :good:

Lol. Hope yours isn't a chinese knockoff then. They are cheaper and I've seen ppl posting pics of their entire charger burnt up with the battery inside. [emoji33]
Haha
Lol haha no sir it actually had the samsung paperwork instructions with it so its definitely not a knockoff I would be upset if that happened

That's good. Coz samsung sells it for an exorbitant amount.

I just got the Anker® 7800mAh Extended Battery Combo for Samsung Galaxy S4.
Great solution but heave and thick.

I did consider that. But yeah I don't think I'll prefer the added size of that thing. Just enjoy swapping batteries and getting them charged up quickly more.
Plus I don't live in the U.S so I would need to pay extra for a forwarder to ship it over. Enjoy that massive battery life, buddy. [emoji1]

I have a 5800 mah battery, it lasts 3 days at best. My original battery barely lasted 1 day. I am pretty happy with the battery but the phone is defenseless against falls:crying:

Get a tempered glass screen protector on it and you'll be fine. [emoji41]
UPDATE: Alright in case anyone is interested, I managed to get the s4's extra battery kit at a pretty cheap price (usd39) off my local seller. [emoji16]
And good news to those of u using aftermarket stock-sized batteries. They DO work with the external charger. I'm using zerolemon's and the charger gave off a flashing ember initially when I tried to charge it. But after awhile of fiddling with it I got it to work. [emoji1] It charges almost as fast as plugging your phone directly to the ac. Now I don't need to plug my phone to the wall ever again.
