Last month I bought a new brand Onite battery for my Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500.I must say this has been a good battery. I have used it for about a month now; I am on the phone all day, usually over 4 hours of screen time, and the battery is rarely below 70% in the end. It is not like my stock battery only last less a day.
wow, It seems good.

Where did you got this battery?
I didn't find it when S4 released in the end of April.
I just ordered the 2600 2-pack with charger from Amazon for $20.
After days of being in airplanes I realized I needed a spare.

Thanks for your information.
I agree with you. Extended battery is so thick.
I am eyeing their 2600mAh battery with NFC on another listing.
Share your purchase when you got it.
I would like to buy it if it works great.
Onite battery from amazon
I bought it from amazon. It is a brand called "Onite", you search "Onite battery" in amazon, then you will find serials of batteries.
I got Onite battery last month
Compared with my original one, it works one day longer. The charger came together with the batteries is a specific one for Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500. They are all works smoothly recently.

I got the Onite S4 battery today and just started charging my battery. It's been on for about six hours and still shows charging.
I'm concerned if they have a higher amp charger for the s4 battery .Then I contacted the customer service and they explain that the low current will not hurt the battery life.
Moreover, they also introduce a new charger which is 600mAh, I have bought a new charger, will update it later.

I too bought the onite 2 pack with charger on Amazon. Everything works great, I just wish they would label the batteries NFC or non-NFC so that I knew what i had. The ones i bought said NFC in the order, but the batteries are not marked from what i can see.
Was there a bulge on the back?
Great batteries that last long!!!

Hey there, no bulge for me, and I'm using the 2600mAh ones. I too was concerned about whether or not there would be a bulge because of reviews I read about the Anker ones being a tad bit thicker than the OEMs, so that's why I went with the Onite ones, and from my experience you don't have to worry about bulging with these. They last pretty long too. I charged mine, then let them drain so that I could charge them again, and it took almost 17 hours after just one charge, and that's with heavy use all day.
yeah, the 2600mah Onite battery is a good chioce. one friend suggests it to me and I bought one .

Yeah okay mate. As if a battery which claims to have the same rating as stock (which I doubt) can last a day longer. I was considering buying a couple to test and discredit you but I don't really think I need to now. That utterly ridiculous statement has made you look untrustworthy enough I'd say, and I don't want to give you a single cent.
You have a post count of 5 and it's petty obvious you are a spam account set up to promote your batteries. There are also several other posters in this thread with low post counts who, coincidently, only post in battery threads to either recommend onite batteries or discredit other brands. In fact there are more suspect posters than legit ones in this craptastic thread.
If the product were any good you wouldn't have to resort to such underhanded marketing techniques as creating multiple accounts just to spam and mislead people.
Please folks, BEWARE!

So far the Anker aftermarket battery has been working very well as my 2nd battery.
samsung.com has it for $40, $50 for the kit, it is currently on backorder, i'm thinking they should have it in a week or two, just keep checking. also, don't forget to register your phone with them, you'll get an email for 50% off cellphone accessories priced no higher than $50, max 5 items.
I threw the dice, and ordered off of ebay. Should have 2 batteries and a charger in 3 weeks....

I agree on the Anker Batteries. Had two of those for my EVO 3D after buying all sorts of different batteries. They are the only ones that lasted for me.

Works good, no NFC (as with most cheap extra batteries).. Battery Monitor Pro registers 3100mAh :good::good::good:
a bit for a tight fit as you'd expect from an extended battery that fits with the stock backplate (which bulges very slightly)
So far so good though

Just bought the Anker battery, arriving Tuesday. Will be interested to see how it fairs considering I bought it brand new for only £10, with the official Samsung battery costing £35. As long as it fairs up relatively well, I'm not fussed about not having the NFC capability.

Used same branded batteries as spares for my Galaxy Nexus and they perform fine. You probably won't get the same as from the official battery but these are well worth it for those who need some extra juice and don't care about losing NFC.
A screencap of my 5200mAh battery on its initial charge.
I'm looking for a replacement battery for my S4. Since it's replacement it doesn't have to be as good. What scares me though is that those cheap ebay/dealextreme batteries might hurt my phone somehow (those golden batteries etc). Is this possible, or is it safe to use those 'fake' batteries?
Also I would love if you guys could recommend a decent replacement battery for a good price (even better with a wall battery charger).

the one i tested was non nfc, these are nfc enabled but i doubt that would make them that much bigger to bulge, but ill let you know as soon as this UPS man arrives at my office, gotta love amazon prime! :laugh:
I bought the Anker batteries. Get 2 batteries and a wall charger. The wall charger also has a USB port which can output 1A, which it pretty good to carry around if needed. I've read reviews how when these first came out it was a really tight fit, but it seems that they made adjustments because the ones I received fit in just fine, like the OEM ones.

Title-3X Battery for Samsung Galaxy SIV S4 GT-i9500 with External Charger 3250 mAh
worth it
I almost always buy the cheapo chinese batteries for my phones. Here are my findings:
They will last throughout the day about as long as genuine batteries... for the 1st year
After the 1st year, they will start to degrade.... depending on your use, lack of use, temperature, etc... I have some 2.5 year old chinese epic 4g batteries that still work.. but only last about 4 hours. My original battery will still go a good 12hrs. I only keep them around for emergencies, but I don't really use that phone anymore.
The cheapo chargers that come w/ it is very handy and usually work pretty well.
Depending on how much you use them, they will last you a couple years.
Why i think they are worth it:
For ten bucks, they are a great backup battery. By that I mean, when get home from work and my battery is almost dead.... I can swap out the battery for the rest of the evening and don't have to put my phone on the charger till bed.
I'm a normal smart phone user, a normal batter will last me the day most days. I don't game or do too many intensive things..
I get them because I know that I will get a new phone every 1.5 to 2 years... so why do my batteries need to outlast the phone?
Who shouldn't use them:
People who really drain their batteries. They simply won't go as many recharge cycles as a normal battery (by that I mean full empty to full charge).
Tips:
Mark your crappy batteries with a permanent marker. The chinese clones look so good that you probably can't tell the difference between them and a real on. Mark the fake ones so that you can use your real on days when you know you really need lasting power. This isn't so important the first 9 months... but after that it could be.
Watch for reviews on a good battery seller (if buying from ebay)... there are good cheap-o batteries and their are crappy ones. I like to let other people figure it out
When Samsung released big-screen Galaxy Note seriers smart phones and get the market, we have 5.8 / 6.3 inch GALAXY Mega, 5.9 inch HTC One Max, 6.4-inch SONY Xperia Z Ultra, the coming 6.0 inch Nokia Lumia 1520 ... ... Do we really need big like tab smart phone ?
Not only for the phone itself, we have more and more third party factories offered huge capacity replacement batteries, The Galaxy S3 has 2100mAh original battery, after that, we found 4200mAh, 7000mAh replacement batteries in market. The Galaxy S4 has 2600mAh original battery but we saw 7500mAh which so called world's largest S4 battery in the world.
Well well well ... that's not the end, I just noticed Anker released 7600mAh S4 replacement on Amazon and the nice price is only $32 free shipping.
This beast comes with two different back covers -- black and white. The huge innovative is they provided a 2600mAh internal battery plus a 5000mAh extended battery in the back cover. You need to use the internal battery and battery case together in order to prolong the battery's lifespan. What are you expecting for this one?

Anker has really good products but for me, I think I'll pass. Large capacity but no NFC. Also, great if you run your phone naked. I bet it will be a pain to get a protective case around that thing. I'd rather pay $7 more and get the ZeroLemon Extended Battery.

I've read that the Seidio Active Extended Battery Case works well with the Hyperion battery and just well enough with the Anker 5200.
Also: Is the Anker really larger than the Zerolemon Extended 7500mAh? Why wouldn't it fit into the Zerolemon case made for that battery?

The shipping took longer than I thought, so I just received it this Saturday. :silly:
There was a definite gain in thickness and weight once I installed the battery, but it's not that bothersome. I'd compare it to Zerolemon's 7500mAh extended battery. (I'll post some pics soon.)
I've only gone through one complete cycle (fully charge and discharge) since most of the time I forget to drain it all the way. Anker's instructions recommend to go through about 4-6 cycles of charging and discharging the battery before seeing actual results. (I asked via email.) Once I've gone through those cycles, I'll report back. The battery is doing moderately well so far. I'm at 26% after a day and nine hours, with 3 hrs of screen on time, about 30 minutes of GPS navigation, sync on, push notifications of email and social networking, all smart features on, LTE on, and 75% brightness. :good:
hey guys just wanted to see what kind of battery life you guys are getting out of this battery? i have this already on my s4 but my battery life varies, i am running gummy rom 4.4 using ktoonz 11/16 kernel, im seeing only about anywhere from 8-11 hours of use on a moderate to very moderate use, but i did read somewhere that they recommend you fully charge then use all the way dead on battery like 5-6 times can someone re-iterate me and correct me if im wrong? my frist initial full charge use was awesome...as i got 34 hours out of my battery with about 17% left, but that was light to moderate use.
I'm on my 2nd 7600.. returned the first one because it wouldnt hold a charge very long.
so far im on my 3rd cycle with the 7600.. and it's hit or miss about lasting longer.. because i dont see a way to force the 2nd battery to charge...

I have the zerolemon battery. I forgot the exact mah, but it last me the day with how much I use my phone, full brightness and such.
ok guys update, i've let my phone go through the full charge and completely dead cycles 3 times now, i am now on my 4th charge, but this time it charges up more slowly, i charged it for about 3 hours and it was up to 79% its now been 19 hours and 18min and im down to 50% on battery i think its pretty good so far now, alot better when i was just randomly charging it.
posting another update, battery went completely dead from 79% charge at 1 day 11 hours. moderate useage..... Great battery life!
I'm thinking about buying the ZeroLemon Samsung Galaxy S4 3000mAh Battery. Any opinions? I heard zerolemon was a pretty good company but I just wanted to confirm.
I bought mine about a month a go and I can definitely feel the difference in the duration of screen-on time. I went from like 4.5 hours to 5 hours roughly. More than worth the price.

Bought my pair a few months ago. I don't remember the last time I actually plugged my phone into a charger. I just swap the batteries from the phone to the wall charger. I usually get about 15 hours of decent use, about 3.5 hours of screen time, out of each. It's a great buy.

Man i've tried emailing bastexwireless but they said they don't have any in stock.. still waiting for something i'll let you know if i find anything..
Does this battery add any bulk, size wise I mean, to the phone? I know the weight will probably be heaver but I had an extended battery for my old Photon 4G and had to go without a case on it because of the size of the battery. I don't want to have to do that but this battery looks promising from what I see.
maybe its matter, maybe not... but note that this battery do not have NFC chip.
i also thought about to buy that battery, but for me, the lack of this NFC chip is a deal breaker.

The battery very slightly bulges at the back. If you have a very very specific tight fitting case you will notice the slight inconsistancy. I had one that fit the Galaxy S4 specifically however once the battery was put in, it created a few mm gap.
I initially found the battery to add about 30 min extra however, it began to lose it capacity after a few months then became the same if not worse than the stock.
No NFC, bulge, same battery capacity wasn't worthwhile. I bought from bastexwireless and they were a pain to deal with so if you buy expect to make it a permanent purchase. I tired to contact zerolemon as well and they just gave me the runaround.

I would say the lifespan of holding its charge is pretty similar to the original samsung battery. Under heavy daily use, it would take abt 3 mths I reckon, for it to start losing its capacity bit by bit. It's just the way they are, so I would still get the zerolemon's since they are pretty cheap compared to samsung's. Over here where I live, the original samsung battery is only sold with the extra battery kit, and it costs abt 30usd. I alr got that so it would still be worthwhile for me to ship the zerolemon's over as I don't stay in the US.
Regarding bastex's customer service, I emailed them once regarding their poorly made wall charger. They responded pretty quickly and offered to send me a new one, as well as 2 new batteries since mine had alr bloated up due to months of heavy use. I guess the bloating issue pretty common. So maybe not all their staff provide quality support. [emoji41]
I just got mine this week. This is day 3 of using it. It seems to do a little better, but I'm still in the break-in phase of the battery. I like the extra weight, as it gives the phone a more substantial feel. It fits fine in my otterbox (defender series, I think). Haven't tested it in my seidio obex case yet. I used their battery with my Verizon Galaxy Nexus, and loved it. I expect good things with it.
I just ordered a single battery ($9.XX, with shipping). I didn't need the second battery, or that external battery charger.
Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4
Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4, I ordered 3 from e-bay with 2 chargers. The batteries are heavier than the phone and with case is more than twice as thick(deep) as original phone. Width and length are slightly larger too but not appreciably so. Big plus is am never tethered to wall and each battery will last 20+ hours of constant Internet use. Simply swap batteries after running it until <= 2%; one is typically always on charger. Phone with case/battery carries nicely in a LBT Holster.
The zerolemon wall charger is really low quality. It works (charges ur batt from zero to full in abt 4-5 hrs) for the first few weeks, and then takes longer and longer to charge.
Another alternative to never having to charge your phone on the wall is to get the official samsung extra battery kit. That charger is top notch. I got that and use it with my zerolemon's. So I don't need to deal with a huge bulky extended battery either.
It's a small bit bigger than the original battery. It makes putting on your battery cover a little bit more difficult, but not bad. I have a defender case and it makes it just a little tighter.

So far, my zero lemon 3000 mah battery isn't performing too great. I think I'm going to try and return it for another one to see if the ladder is better. I get about 4 hours of screen on time.
Hello,
I want to change the battery in my note 4 but it seems that there are false ...
or find a Samsung original battery at a good price?
or find a battery of another brand but powerful?
thank you
I have been using the below battery for 3 months now. It works great. Just like factory. I ordered it from amazon. Search" Galaxy Note 4 Battery, Anker 3220mAh Li-ion Battery for Samsung Galaxy Note 4".

Agreed, I've been using Anker 3220mAh for about half a year now. The good thing is the package on amazon comes with two at a fairly good price and an external charger. Ive been carrying the extra with me always and never had problem with battery life because i just swap when one dies.

I bought a extended battery as well as a standard battery for my Note 4 that I found online that has worked well for me so far. It has to charge all night but I've been getting around 35+ hours of use out of a battery.

Another vote for Anker.

I've got several 10,000mAh ZeroLemon batteries and a couple of Hyperion 10,000mAh batteries as well. The difference, ZeroLemon is a TriCell battery so you won't get a 100% accurate battery reading unless you pull the battery and reinsert it. The Hyperion is a single cell battery that will always report the correct battery states, however the Hyperion doesn't hold up as long as the ZeroLemon in my opinion. I tested both batteries when they first were released for the distributorship in the USA. The Anker battery I've never tried, however there are literally thousands of positive comments on that battery so I'd have to agree it must be a good battery as well. If your looking for a replacement battery pretty close to OEM, I'd go with the Anker. However if your looking for more power I'd go with the Hyperion. And finally if you're looking for more power, durability, and a battery that just don't quit, I'd go with the ZeroLemon. Personally I use ZeroLemon and a full charge with literally everything on, full brightness, Bluetooth, WiFi, heavy use, etc, etc, etc, will run for 2 1/2 to 3 days. But now it's a beast of a battery and it's not that light either. I'm a former SEAL, & I consider my cellphone with the ZeroLemon battery my concealed weapon, lol. One hit with that thing and it's lights out, lol.
Developers don't need no stinkin' signature!

Been using my Anker for 1.5yrs too. Love the peace of mind of knowing you will never run out of power and need to charge outside.

I'd just get the official Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Extra Battery Kit. As you will also get a dedicated charging cradle with the battery.

I think Anker always produce good products.That may be perfect.
So, if the Anker battery is the the same capacity as the Samsung, then why would it be any better?

Probably less chance of a counterfeit. Counterfeiters love to copy Samsung products.

I hadn't thought of that. I tend to purchase directly from Samsung to avoid just that; it's worth the few extra dollars for peace of mind, plus should anything go wrong I have a reliable (and accountable) place to go back to.

If you want an battery with a good price, try searching an OEM Samsung battery.
OEM battery is an original one but without proper packaging as it should be sell to a manufacturer not to end user.
An OEM battery might cost much less than the original non OEM.
Make sure it is an Original OEM battery by buying from trusted vendor.

Cheaper for equal if not almost the same quality. Bang for your buck for not having to pay "brand" taxes.
Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
Maybe you should consider buying the extra battery kit. You get a new battery and a charger, so you can charge it outside the phone. In this way you are almost certain that the product is genuine, plus you can use your old battery as a backup, even if it's not in the best shape.

"Brand taxes"? I hear this phrase thrown about quite a lot, but what does that really mean??? I'll overpay for the device, but I'll try to save a few dollars on the accessories. Consider this: anecdotally, there have been more than a few cases of those third-party batteries failing or exploding. If it's a power accessory like a battery or charger, I'd much rather take my chances with the brand's items than a third-party just to save a few bucks.
Put it this way: to me, it's like purchasing a performance automobile but servicing it with aftermarket parts and filling it with regular gasoline, just to save money.

I think it is more like servicing your (performance or not) car at stealership vs local mechanic. As long as you know that they are good trusty mechanic (or good brand in case of battery) you should be good without paying the premium.
Okay . . .
I respectfully disagree, but we'll chalk this up to parallax and leave it at that.
