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?

They weren't able to increase mah of battery?
I had this same exact package when I had the S3. It was awesome...
Thanks for the link, I just ordered it for my upcoming S4.

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!

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*

Has anyone been able to find the battery for sale that is in stock? EB-K600BUW is the part number but nobody seems to have it available including Samsung.

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....

Isn't the S3 battery 2100mAh stock? The S4 comes with a beefier 2600mAh battery. Cool that the batteries will work in a pinch though.
Yeah. And It has a little space on the right side of the battery but it fits snug and the phone turns on

I ordered two of these batteries and they just came in today. The battery and the cover don't make the phone that much thicker.
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

Those are the ones I bought XD hoping they work fine!
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.
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.

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!

Guys stay away from onite. This Sophia Chan is a salesman of Onite just look at her profile. Onites battery is actually a stock battery people take stickers off of the so called extended battery and did further looking and foumd it was 3100 mah for our note 2 and so on.

why not buying on of those batteries what is wrong with them?

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

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.

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
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.

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.
