I know a lot of us are looking to buy extended batteries, and some of us have already purchased some. I am personally in the former group. It's hard to judge thickness since a lot of the pictures don't really give you a side view, and don't have anything in the picture to provide scale.
I'm hoping we can use this thread as a collection of pics of the various extended batteries/battery cases to help each other see how bulky a particular battery is in order to make a more informed purchasing decision.
If you're going to add a picture, please post the brand name, mah, and try to include something in your pic that adds scale (ruler, penny, standard pencil, before and after pic, etc). Also, if you've had it for a bit, maybe throw in a couple of lines stating how you feel about the battery in regards to size/performance and whether you would recommend purchasing it.

Man, I just bought 3500 battery from MPJ.
Looking at that "7000" mah battery, looks like the same size as the 5200's.
LOL, I'm worried that my 3500 now is really just a stock 2600.

This battery supposedly can fit in the stock case.

Pic or it didn't happen. That's pretty far stretch from what I typically get. I usually get around 18 hours with 3 hours screen time before the phone craps out.

I take it you use ghost armor or use it naked? Yeah, it does bulge but I use a case so I don't see it. I never actually needed longer battery life anyways, though. I grabbed it cuz it was $25 and now I have a spare. With oem battery mine lasts well over 24 hours with 5 hours of screen on time, auto brightness, emails, weather and everything else syncing. I would never run a cheapo battery though.
greekunit690 does the one you ordered require a different battery cover? Or is it just the same size? Samsung really should make an extended battery. Actually all cell phone companies need to make the batteries bigger like the driod razr maxx

I've been using this battery since Feb 17th. The stock battery would only get me through the work day and even then sometimes barely. Now I easily can go through the evening with about 30% left before I plug it in for the night. Once I forgot and it was at 1% the next morning which the stock never would've lasted that long.
I wasn't aware we could use the Nexus extended battery. Since I use a case I may switch to that. If I can find one at a good price on Prime.
How the heck do you get 5 hours of screen time and have it last 24 hours? Even with the nexus battery juice defender running I can get maybe 3-4 hours.

Juice defender is sucking down your battery. I run Gideons script as well as some other mods. Easily go over 24 hours, usually 2 days. With the extended battery I have gone over 8 hours screen on.

I have both and the andida just isn't as good as the extended battery from Samsung. I've seasoned it like the instructions say and it just doesn't last nearly as long. It's only been a week and I'm still testing it.

Agreed, it's only a tiny little bit better or if any better than the original battery.
I ordered 2 of these and a stand alone charger off Amazon for $30. Hope I didn't waste my money! Will know when I get back home in a week and get to test them out.
Does anyone that has had luck with them have any suggestions for how to "break them in", I think the instructions show to cycle them 5 times before use?
After receiving and using an Andida for about a week I was pretty disappointed. Its about the same as the stock. Nexus Extended is better.
I have the Andida battery and I feel that it does give me 2-3 hours more on a charge. No hard facts, just my impression from using it for about a week.
My experience, it gave me about 2-3 hours like what others said. I usually got 10-13 hours. I'm personally using the Qcell 3850 mah battery now, 24+ hours

For those gamers, YouTube watchers, extended battery life is great here is a screen shot as you can see.I get a little over a day worth of juice that includes, playing an hour of video game, watching YouTube videos, using my hotspot, surfing the net, updating apps, opening emails, texting, voice calls, which I use for work,12hr shift, have to call every hour(security) which is 30 sec a call but adds up threw out the shift.overall this battery is awesome

How much thicker does it make the phone?
I've owned extended batteries in the phone (as my last 2 phones hardly made it 4hr off the charger) but this one does fairly well I feel. However if I can add an extended battery and allow the phone to do more (more widgets) I may go this route again
Here's the info, ok couldn't put a link because the link takes you to my account, but the sellers name and info is in the pic,$8 is a steal, yes it makes it much thicker, but it doesn't bother me I only use it for gaming and when I watch another video,I might buy another battery.I'll try post to post as picture with the extended battery, my sg3 is blue and the back I got for it is white but that's my choice a two tone color lol.

I've hit close to 36 hours with heavy use on Beans stock rom w/ the stock battery. You should be getting twice this with a 4500mah battery.
Jesus christ that battery is huge. i would get one doe.
I use the hyperion 4000+ battery and the matching case, it is totally awesome.
I stream audio (iheart radio or Sirius online) all day at work which is an absolute battery killer and the Hyperion lasts so long I never even bother to check my battery gauge anymore.
I only get a day because I just got the battery on Friday, haven't broken it in yet, I'm sure it will last more then a day++, but remember 4glte sucks battery, plus I play massive games, stream lots of video.so I'm very happy so far with this battery .and besides I'm still stock not even rooted or unlocked yet.

4300 w/NFC, Works Great, only $15!
I got an extended battery direclty from a Chinese Manufacturer. It's 4300mAh - works great - and has NFC. (The NFC works great too.).
The battery is on Aliexpress.com here: http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...sung-Galaxy-S3-I9300-4300mAh-wholesalers.html
Or just search for 4300 Samsung Galaxy S3 NFC Battery on Aliexpress.com
I did a video review of the battery as well as the Hyperion extended battery case. You can check it out here if you want: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOZivj2__l8
Anyway, I highly recommend this battery. Can't be beat for the price and get to keep NFC!
I just hope Hyperion, Anker, Siedio, or Mugen release a 3000 or so mah battery. 4000+ is just too large for me personally. I mean on the stock 2100 mah I'm getting killer battery stats for only being 2100mah and pushing a 4.8" screen or so. If we could get a good 3000 mah batter I don't think the design of the phone will be ruined and also think I could mod an OB defender case to work with it. Not possible w/ a 4500 mah battery.
My stock battery can not live up to my expectations (even though it's great)..........
Can anyone suggest a battery that'll fit in my regular case (S-View Cover) and also give me some more power than the stock one???
Thanks!!!!!

Im in your position aswell, my advice is to wait for zerolemon to release one. If your unaware of the company google them. They made a 2300mah for the galaxy s3 which I bought and it gave me on aversge 6 hours screetime as appose to 4 on the stock. And it fitted in the original back cover. Im guessing theyll make on for the s4 with 2800 mah..but dont be fooled they last way more than 200mah extra would suggest...u'll also get 2 batteries with a battery charger all for under $30...

This should be ok. I ordered one recently too but it has yet to arrived.
I did a google search for "kinps battery review" and some galaxy note 2 users said it was good which is why I got one for the s4.
Did u order the same one whose link i posted???? If yes, then I'll wait until you receive it......please review it as soon as you get it and please do inform me.....
If its nice, then I'll order it...Thanks!!!

let's me know how it fit :good:
Just saying, those 3300 mAH ebay batteries aren't actually 3300 mAH. I would say 2200-2500. Right now the only one that makes sense is the mugen one and it's insanely expensive, so consider waiting a little more or buying the BIG ASS battery by anker (5200 mAH with the special cover)
Hey everyone!
Just bought another blaze to root and mess with. The battery was fried and got wet at some point....Randomly I searched my battery stash...Any GSM Samsung Galaxy Nexus battery works with the Blaze!!!! I am using a 1950m Anker Battery with stock KitKat and getting INSANE battery life... Try it out...This could be known already so please don't bombard with duhhhhhs
Thanks

It is the same size on most Samsung phones released around the time. Ex. Exhilarate has same battery.

Well I can will take a screenshot after I charge it and then let it almost die. The whole point I am trying to make is that there are a TON of bigger batteries for the galaxy nexus line of phones and they work fine in this phone. So it is a good option for someone who is needing more battery life.
Also I am running Slimkat 4.4.2

The issue with the extended battery's is there are no bigger back covers.

Yes I am aware of that. All I am saying is that 1950 and higher ml after market batteries are much more readily available for the galaxy nexus than the blaze 4G. This phone does not have a lot of accessories or battery options. It was barely marketed and I am just trying to help.
thanks,
Justin

I agree with your point
Some ebay listings on aftermarket batteries will have multiple device codenames ( ex. T769).
We are lucky we don't use an exhilarate, those things are below marketed. Rare to find in public at that.
Good luck with your results.
