So you're saying that in testing through actual usage you've seen better results?
All conditions being the same, you've determined that the new battery gives you a longer amount of time between charges than the stock battery does?

yes, it last longer than the stock battery.

I bought three of these batteries, because they were like $1 each from China, and all of them are no different than the stock. Grab a tool and check the actual capacity and you will see that they are exactly the same spec as the OEM battery.
By the way, this is very old news. Did you search before posting? I didn't think so.

JK or not, he never did say it was an "internal" battery.

I bought one of these, isn't really 1600 but works good as a spare once my original dies completely.

I was thinking about buying a 1500 mah battery from ebay then I read a thread stating that the Inspire 4g stock battery lasted longer. The "Mah" rating is not industry regulated so basicly a manufacture can put 1600 mah on a battery thats 1100 mah without getting reprimanded or fined. So be carefull where you buy these batterys from and make sure the Co. is reputable first.

...for any given LiION battery of a given size, pretty much x capacity is the result +- a very negligible amount...really...that's the state of the tech...ebay is full of peeps wanting to sell "magic" to other peeps wanting a something as elusive as "battery life" of a smart phone...really...snake oil...

What sellers are you buying these cheap batteries from?

EVERY seller on ebay not selling an OEM battery.

I had bought 2 Chinese batteries on eBay and they r worse than the stock battery helpful if your battery dies but none the less waste of money

The technology itself is the cap. For this size this is the most juice you are going to get, unless they figure out a way to pack more energy cells into the same amount of space. Which they haven't. Don't be fooled. The battery that came with phone is the best available for this phone.

I got some extended batteries and found I had to fully charge them then wipe the battery stats run it down to 0 then charge it to 100 before I saw an improvement, but now I can get like 13 or 14 hours of use on average. I also like being able to carry around a spare battery

All that did is calibrate the battery. It's not going to hold any more juice than the space allows. It's physics. Until a new technology comes out...
I get better battery life than that and I have never changed my battery.

Dear friend, I recommend you momax 2700mah. I use it since 3 months and still going strong. 2 days plus with 6hr 15 min screen time. You will not regret it.

guys what about this battery ?
Mugen Power 3200mAh Extended Battery for Samsung GalaxyS GT-i9000

How about you consider an external battery charger?
There is plenty on mobile fun.com that you should check out!

I have a anker battery 1800 Mah and its crap its real capacity is 1500 just like standard one it weighs the same as well .....bought from anker web site too ..shame looks good but performs same as normal one....stick to momax 2700 as I have that as well and it last a very long time when used correctly

[Q] anker battery?

hey guys. After having the sensation for about three months i got pretty much sick and tired of the battery life and so i searched up and found an anker 1900 mah battery, do you guys think that it is actually worth buying it? I also heard from a friend that it reduces the overheating issue that the phone has, can anybody confirm this to be true?

Try to look around.... Anker battery topic has a lot of replies... You just need to open sensation accessories... Because battery is accessory....
Go on try, open... Its right there on the first page....

It's really work for me, but it's actually about 1830-1850 mah not 1900 mah as it state on a label.

Picked one up off Ebay and it's great. I can go a few extra hours compared to stock battery. Worth it for me.

so far after reading the reviews anker battery has got lots of positive reviews but unfortunately the price of the battery in malaysia is double so i opt for sunglobal 1850mah... http://www.sunglobal.com.my/enlarge.asp?id=93.... so far works fine for me for around 15 to 25 hours..

This is an interesting topic for me too. There are several brands offering batteries with extended capacity. Do you think that they are all the same, or Anker is the best?

Will rreplacig my stock sensation battery for the anker 1900 one reduce overheating

No. The battery is only part of the issue, your processor generates more heat.
For those thinking the Anker solves temperature issues, it doesn't have a temperature sensor included so always reports 25c no matter how hot or cold it gets.

Anker is 1900 mAh, and I saw another aftermarket batt on eBay listing 2450 mAh capacity.
Its easy to print a label with a higher capacity rating, so my question is has anyone tried it - feedback?

I got 2 Anker 1900 mAh batteries with external usb/plug recharger, I just swap them when one is discharged.
Now my phone works a lot longer but the greatest difference occoured when I stopped using Superpower app with it's 2G/3G switching scripts (2G preferred) and turn on airplane mode in the night when I sleep.
Now my phone works even 3 days when is lighlty used.

My Anker battery offered a great improvement at first, however six months down the line I'm not so sure its lasting as long as it used to - can't say I'm using my phone any more than I was, but I always seem to be in power saving mode now before I stick it on charge at the end of the day. Hopefully in another six months it won't have gotten any worse!

Batteries with more than stock 2600maH

Do you guys know any good ones?
*I am looking for something with more than 2600maH that is also the same size as the stock battery. I dont want a battery that ends up making a bulge in the back of my phone, or end up getting a super fat battery and needing a large back cover*
Currently looking at this, looks pretty decent:

***I CAN NO LONGER FIND THE 3000MAH ZEROLEMON BATTERY ON SALE***

I picked up 2 zerolemon 3000mah extended batteries and a charger for $21 on amazon. They are slightly thicker but hardly noticeable. My factory Samsung back cover still fits just fine. I get at least another 1-4 hours depending on my use. Will last me 12-16 hrs total with wifi, bluetooth and gps running all day.

Hey mate, is it safe to put a much bigger battery than the stock ??
Will it be an issue during charge ??

CBS, using a bigger battery than stock is fine. I've used 7-8 and4oid phones with extended batteries and have never had an issue. they will however take longer to charge due to the increased size.
I used to use a zerolemon 7500 mah battery in my galaxy s3. It was great. Took twice the time to charge but well worth it. Only plug it in to charge at night.

No problem. Sounds like a 7500 mah battery sounds like it will suit your needs. Internet, gaming, streaming movies and music will take it's toll on even the best batteries. A 7500 mah battery will last me all day with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and gps all day for work. The average user will get 1-3 days depending on use. With the right rom and kernel can do wonders.

Zl offers a 3000 may but it does not have nfc. They have a 2650 mah battery that has NFC but that is basically stock. They also have a 7500 mah battery with NFC. I'd rather have their 7500 w/wireless charging instead of NFC.

I need just battery. Nfc i dont use but if i need it i have this original battery. Just switch them and i have nfc.

I never use NFC, so 3000maH is great. Im gonna buy it soon

Glad I could help. I haven't used the NFC on my s3 or my s4. I tried playing with it but it's not a need. You guys will be happy to know if you buy a wireless charging receiver it will fit under the stock battery cover as well with the zl 3000 mah battery. I love wireless charging. No more laying in bed and reaching around on the floor in the dark trying to find the cord for my phone.

Best battery?

What is the best battery for s4? I am buy aliex. What is your suggestion
I am sorry very bad english

I purchased the Anker 5200mAh battery a few months ago. Performance is great and I actually like the added bulk. I can easily get two days of battery with heavy use.

Anker 7800mAh. Best thing I bought so far. Makes your phone's weight similar to brick, but it's worth it. Lasts me 2 days.

My battery is not original may be it is 2600 mah may be ))) my screen time is 2 hour

What about the ZeroLemon ones? I've heard they're good

I've been using ZeroLemon 3000mAh batteries for the last year or so. They're great. They add a tiny bit of bulk to the back of the phone, no big deal. You should know that they malfunction and deteriorate after like one year so you have to replace it then ASAP.

zerolemon 7500mah user here for a year now and this beast battery is still performing well...
heavy gaming ( clash of clans ) it gives me 13-15hrs Screentime...
charge it when im sleeping...
Moderate usage no gaming data connection on ( when is need to check something ) off when not in use. roughly 2-2 1/2 days.
my s4 can act like a powerbank aswell by the use of an USB OTG..

Ye, it is very nice choise! I have bought it to

Back then i had 2 choices.
To buy a new original battery which i am not sure if im gonna recieve a legit original one or just another knockoff. ( same screentime 3-4hrs max )
Or to buy a zerolemon which will definitely give me a better screentime guaranteed

Using the ravpower 2800 mah battery. I don't think there's a huge difference, but it lasts longer than the OEM, obviously because it's newer, but Aldo because it has that extra 200mah.
Can't go wrong with this battery, and it's only $10, compared to the ridiculous prices they're charging for the OEM version. Also, way too many counterfeit batteries out there to order an OEM.

But not real happy w/ it so far seems to drain faster than my Anker. Will give it a few charge cycles first to see if it settle down. Batterey Stat only showed it was about 3800 mAh, which is to be expected.

Still not sure about this thing...seems to be drainer faster the more I use it. Was charged to 100% the other morning, just sitting on my desk no use, dropped to below 60% by noon. Contacted seller , who suggested draining it completely then recharge. Will give it a few more tries, and return if it doesn't improve.
Popped my Anker back in yesterday, thing works like a boss.
