buying extended battery NOW.. WHY SHOULD I WAIT FOR ZEROLEMON? - Galaxy S 4 Accessories

A lot of people tell me to wait for zerolemon's extended battery for S4.. but WHAT GOES ON? when it will be released? as far as it seems nobody knows.. so why the ___ people keep saying "wait for zerolemon" when they have no idea when or if it will be out
why not buying on of those batteries what is wrong with them?
buying this: (trexcell, 5200mah, NFC+GOOGLE WALLET enabled)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Trexcell-Sam...item5af1b5b7ae
or this: (hyperion, 5200mah, NFC+GOOGLE WALLET enabled)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hyperion-Sam...item43bb64addd

Do you want a 7500 mah with NFC?
If yes, then wait. No? Then buy the alternatives. Simple.
More than likely my fellow XDA members want their colleagues to get more "bang for their buck" so to speak.

I looked...
The ones the other poster linked, if you click a product, the seller is listed as "ZeroLemon".
The ones you link have the seller listed as "ZeroLemon LLC"... and if you click the comapny name, it give only a list of unavailable products, while clicking the name of the seller in the other opens up a page full of products.
This is a common scam technique, to use a very similar name to a real company to sell fake items or otherwise scam customers.
As for as waiting or not... If the Hyperion making these phone batteries is the same Hyperion that makes batteries for RC use... then the Hyperion batteries should be high quality items.

Hi
I would like to know what Brands will make S4 battery for 7000mAh & up
ZeroLemon, Hyperion, Mugen, Anker, etc
with NFC if possible
Also they have the wireless charging back cover
that would be awesome
http://mashable.com/2013/06/07/samsung-galaxy-s4-wireless-charging/
Please

My 5200mAh extended battery is lasting me about a day and a half with heavy use, and about 3 days with moderite use. But I have found myself still charging it every night so it really wont do me any good going larger than 5200.

Looks like anker doesn't have tpu cases.. Only banker :/ the 5200 ones

I got the Hyperion 5200 battery and I have to agree with some of the posts here that it is pointless to get a higher capacity.after 20 hours of usage (the regular battery usually died after 14)I had 45% battery left even though i tried my best to drain the battery before going to sleep and putting the phone on the charger.

it is worth to wait a 7500mah
7500mAH i guess it is almost human being limited for battery producing from zero lemon battery picture,it is hard to believe.....2600mah+4900mah if 4900mah composed by two battery,which battery chips they use? question

According to description its the same size as the original battery so u wouldnt need an extended cover

There is absolutely no way to physically increase the capacity that far without increasing the size at all. I would never buy from any company that had this as a standard disclaimer:
Posting negative feedback before even giving us opportunity to repair or replace the item will result in void warranty.

shady mo-fo's if you ask me. I mean, of course they have very good feedback, if you risk losing your money by giving them bad feedback.
lol, really? Read the epically huge battery testing thread. Batteries like these are always scams.
Really?
Not to be a hater, but one look at the battery and you should know that it is a fake, not to mention the fact that it is being sold on EBAY (aka SCAMMERS' PARADISE).
Did you looked at his feedback? Or you are a friend of him?
Do not buy it. Thoose are less mah batterys with paper glued so it seems to have bigger mah...
It happened to me..
(sorry my english)
yeah, figured that it was too good to be true
just thought id put it out there to see what others thought
anyway - back to the real world for a while
Holy crap that's expensive. I bought an el-cheapo battery off eBay. It was like $10. It's good for backup but you shouldn't spend that much money on this

Just installed that app on my Vibrant and it also says 1200 mah. Don't believe it.
The battery capacity (mah) can only be measured by a complete charge/discharge cycle under calibrated and measured conditions. An app snapshot like this can't accurately report total battery capacity. The app may be able to do such a measurement, haven't played with it enough yet, but there's no way for it to do it immediately.
is there any tool (i mean not an app) to check the battery capacity? the accurate one?
I have 2 of them, they're decent batteries. I'm actually looking top sell one of them for 22$ shipped

where did you buy your mugen battery

after reading reviews ,looks like i decided to get a mugen 1800mah battery,but the website
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...00mah-extended-battery-for-htc-sensation.html
have been out of stock for a few days now, i was wanting to know where did you get yours? i found some on ebay for 42.99
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MUGEN-POWER...ccessories&hash=item2319fa803b#ht_5836wt_1344
and also in amazon http://www.amazon.com/Mugen-Extende...UDJ6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330918371&sr=8-1
for 46.99 , but Im not sure if these are original mugen batteries or just a imitation, so i was wanting some links or tips on where to buy it
THANKS for the feed backs
If you're going to order a Mugen, buy the 3600mAh battery. It's $100 well-spent.

i dont want my phone to be any thicker plus I want to keep using my trident case because it protects it a lot at my job. So does mugen 1800 battery last better than stock?

g2uzer, I had the same problem you did (Mugen being out of the MT4GS 1800 mAh battery when I finally accepted I had a bad pair of Ankers), but I found a workaround.
It turned out Mugen wasn't out of the 1950 mAh battery for the Sensation and I knew that the Ankers I was using also worked in the Sensation, so I took a chance. The fit of the Mugen is *very* tight (noticeably tighter than the Anker which I found a bit tighter than stock). I suspect that's why Mugen isn't selling them for the MT4GS.
Nevertheless it worked and I'm very happy with the results. The several days of 100% to near-zero usage Mugen recommends were painful. If I wasn't consciously heavily using my phone during the day (Bluetooth headset music, Bluetooth tethering my Transformer and plenty of screen on games/browsing time to boot), it would taked a fair bit of "work" (everything going plus max brightness and whatever else I came up with) to get to near-zero before I went to bed.
If you haven't gone in another direction, it is worth trying.

I'm surprised that this site hasn't been mentioned: www.mugenbattery.com. They're a US-based, authorized distributor of Mugen batteries with free shipping for orders over $50. I plan on purchasing my battery from them when my budget allows.

Anyone have heard of this company and would you think this would be a better choice than the Reg. 1800mAh either by Ankar or Samsung? Or if it'll even fit?
I know this a more of a question but because its regarding the battery i figured i post it over here if kenny feels like it he can move to the QnA.

They seem to be the same exact battery, just someone got wise and decided to put brand name on it and double the price lol. Of course I've only had one to test but it scored nearly identical with one of my Generic fatt batts.
There seem to be stronger contenders from both flavors (Generic or Hyperion). One one hand there's word of mouth (Hyperion) and one the other there's actual testing (Generic) but if people could send me some *preferably newer* Hyperions, then we can let the data tell us the answer we're looking for
What I REALLY want to test is a Seidio because I'm betting it will perform similarly and I just want to show people how bad of an investment they are.

I don't have the highest of hopes for it personally (capacity wise) but I believe it'd fit just fine since the OEM Epic Touch battery fits our phone. The Epic 4G's batteries are just a smidge longer/thinner and the Epic Touchs are a little thicker/shorter so maybe our OEMs may not fit there phones but if the 3rd parties match the OEM Epic Touch size dimensions I don't see how it wouldn't fit a regular Epic 4G.

In that case you may be better off going with the Ankers actually, I hear nothing but satisfied people talking about their's...if you want you could order them to me and I can review them and then send them to you when I'm done so we (the public) can see how two typical Ankers score brand new.

I believe its extremely overpriced but I've had it for about a year now and it still holds up great.

This doesn't seem like a run of the mill chinese cheap battery. Packaging looks very professional and the company itself has amazing ratings. I would say this is a pretty safe buy. Its a company that designs the batteries in canada.
And with amazon you're well proctected. Ebay tends to always back the buyer up as well, but I always felt amazon was more legit. I have no need to ugly up my phone with a massive battery, nor do I need the extended time (stock battery suits me fine) but for someone that can't shell out a lot of money this seems like a solid deal

Yes and no. I bought a Mugen from amazon, and everything went fine. It died after about 3.5 months, and Mugen wouldn't replace it because I didn't buy direct from them.
So, most reputable companies who sell direct on amazon are OK. Mugen doesn't sell direct, so avoid them on amazon.
I'd like to see how badly this battery bulges out the phone. I've seen pictures of the galaxy note with this battery, and it looks... big.
I'm willing to test it out. I placed the order and I'll report back once I get it.

Here is my thing about batteries. Last summer when I was on the hunt for an amazing lipo battery that would make my rc car run the fastest,coolest, longest right. Well them batteries were about 60 bucks, but what I had found through my research was there were only about 4 companies world wide who produce lipo-cells, so why waste 60 bucks when I could get a 2-cell for 12 bucks. Well it only lasted the summer because I wasn't very responable with it but its perfomance was on par with the more expensive batteries and so was temp ect. It don't have to cost the most the be effective, sometimes I feel this blacknightavalon works for mugen, because I promise you people 100 for a phone battery, they seen you coming

It don't have to cost the most the be effective, sometimes I feel this blacknightavalon works for mugen, because I promise you people 100 for a phone battery, they seen you coming

I would never move to f**king China. Not unless they got rid of their Maoist regime. No, I just know a good battery when I'm using one, and I think the Ankers are pretty good too (as long as you order the two-pack with the wall charger).
The battery cover in the Amazon picture is clearly not for a MT4GS, but maybe it's just the stock photo they use for all this company's batteries.
Anyhow, for $20, I took a chance.
The company as a whole seems to make quality batteries, so I doubt they would skimp on our phone. And it is an actual company, not a "no name generic" battery. And as I said before, if you look up batteries for other phones from the same company, they generally have great reviews
Good point on the picture. That battery cover does not seem to fit our phone, which means the picture is a stock picture.
im confused, i googled mugen battery and 2 different links come up. not sure which is the official link.

Just got it in. The pic on Amazon is a file one. This battery and the cover will fit, but it's charging up right now. I'll test it tonight.

Could you post pictures when you get it all set up?
Personally, I'd go for a slim extended battery if they offered it, otherwise it won't work with the dock. Still, if this works well, for 20 bucks it's a no-brainer.

I've been looking for a cheap extended battery since I ditched the G2. I had a $15 3500mAh eBay battery on it and it worked just fine. I'll probably order this after I hear what y'all have to say about it.

extended battery

ok ok I know this has been talked about in the passed but have gave it some time any bigger battery worth buying that will still fit in the back of the phone same size as manufacture but more power!!! just checking thanks! Really looking for more power but don't want to bulk out the phone....and looking for NFC with battery

ZeroLemon has one coming out soon, @3000 mAh
Anker has a 2750 mAh battery avaliable (150 more then stock, for double the price... have fun with that...)
basically any other stock size battery you see on ebay advertised as stock sized with 3000+ mAh is a scam and you should AVOID it like the plague.
:good:

I suspect 3000mah maybe pushing it. I would even invest in something portable like a battery pack than a 7500 mah battery which weigh 2x.

A portable pack is definitely useful to have around. In addition to my ZeroLemon 7500mah battery, I also own a PowerGen 9000mah battery pack that can output 2A or 0.5A. It charges the S4 very quickly.

I have a 12000mah pack that I use for many things, they rock!
I just got an extra Samsung factory 2600mah battery w/ charger package today. I considered getting the Zero Lemon 7500, but figured having 2 factory batteries and a charger is all I'm ever gonna need. Every morning I'm just gonna switch out the battery on my phone, and head to work. No more phone charging!

come back here and give us a shout out when the tabs on the phone battery door wear off from opening and closing it constantly
Wish the 3000mah from ZL had NFC.

That's why you should get a battery door as well

Are you talking about the cheap piece of plastic on the back? Lol, no problem spending an extra 5 or so bucks replacing that (1x maybe 2x per year max). Hopefully there will be a better aftermarket battery door that will last longer. Either way its the least of my worries.

That's not a issue. My Nexus S battery cover has been on and off over a 1000 times and it clips on as firmly as ever.

thats not OEM, and also has a "carbon fiber" backing that eventually shreds
