Yeah, I know.we can't spend this much money on a battery.

Spending US$ 90 on 3800mAh battery will be stupid thing to do..
Instead you'll get Sony's portable charger which is of 5000mAh at lesser price than US$ 90..

These "high capacity gold batteries" are nothing but ****. They can't even perform like original batteries and these are Chinese crap so don't even think about it.

Well said Andro
Not to mention that fact that they sometimes blow up, go on fire and leak. None of the mentioned is good for the phone and as I said there is also a good chance of in best case burning your phone. In worst case scenario, your house could get on fire.

Yeah, hehe...they'll definitely gonna blow up eventually. Worst case scenario that you could get hurt very badly or even worst, some people even died because of blowing phone batteries. So don't risk your life. Buy from a trusted brand like mugen power or buy original. And don't ever go for gold or high capacity. They can't fill more mAh in same size battery (simple logic).

Well, yes they can. You have to think about the cost though. Sony chose this battery since it gave good performance/cost ratio that fitted the phones target price. That is the reason why Muggen battery costs 90$

Thanks for the heads up guys. It was too good to be true. I also saw some reviews on these high capacity gold batteries and indeed they are 1500mah at most, pretty bad, aside from the risks.
I guess ill be buying a regular original battery. If you guys have any recomended place to buy, please, tell do share

But this mugen power battery is gigantic, you need a bigger back cover for this which they are providing. its a fact dude, more mAh = larger size n more weight.

did its have any effect for our Xperia L??

Buy portable charger instead of extended battery.. It's cheaper and more convenient..

Can not wait until they get the Li–S battery's on the market it would solve all our power problems. probably all have new phones by then!

3500mah battery now available

Hey guys,..well Ive got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery,thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789679
But just found out there also now a 3500mah battery available..so I couldnt help myself and gave it a go.Just bought yesterday so will take a week or so to arrive.
This one as with the other high capacity batteries also comes with a custom back cover..but instead of the all fat ones like the Cameron Sino one the top bit where the speaker and camera are is still slimmer..only the bulge where the battery is is fatter...personally I think that doesnt look as good as all fat cover (not as natural..looks more like an add on) but I guess with this way there's no black edges on the corner of photo's like some people are reporting with the all fat ones.
Anyway..there's a few sellers on ebay selling them but this is the cheapest I found:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/3500M-EXTEND...092212?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0b1d3df4
Ha ha...I see its now USD $13 posted..yesterday when I clicked by now it was only USD $10.99
For me about AUD $11.48..(since current exchange rate is great now the time for us Aussies to buy from the U.S )
I bought it on Ebay for 11 Euro.
Looks good for long trips

Damn,he's now dropped the price again.This time down to USD $10.15! Thats even cheaper than what I paid..come on guys...gotta try it for that price..
I have already got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery, but at 6.61GBP i thought i might as well order this one. Might well be a load of crap and might not even arrive, but its worth a go
Exactly.
I got the 3000mah Cameron Sino one too but had to try this one for that price.
Plus,dont forget,the back cover is a little different. Only the bottom section is fat,the top,where the camera and speaker are remains thinner so anyone who had complaints of the Cameron Sino all fat back cover making black edges around photos and the speaker a little muffled shouldnt complain here.
(Despite looking a little worse though I think)
Does anyone know how long this battery can hold a charge for?
would it be about 2.2xs longer?
Does anyone know a case that fits this? Preferably one that stays permanently on like those silicon ones?
What i don't get is that all of the extended batteries are so BIG..
Why not make a battery that is about 2 milimeter thicker and a case that only is bigger above the battery compartment..
In other words if you extend the 2/3 mm high hump on the regular cover about 1.5 inch on the SGS, you would have more room to put in a little bigger (2200mah) battery and you would still have a nice looking phone..
I would also like to know if theres any cases available for this size format. And its so weird how the capacity is ~2x more, but the size is 4x more lol.
My god, grrrr more batteries to buy! I'm starting to have way too many batteries. But its sooo cheap!!

Hmm.. A li-ion Polymore batter could be moulded to almost any shape and hold just a tad lower amps.. But they tend to be hell expensive compared to brick size li-ions that we rock. Iphones use li-ion polymore batts. But yeh, What i'm saying is taht we COULD get a decent size and shape but it would prob cost 2-3x more. I would love a batt thats say 2mm thick and cover whole back of the device which would maybe give it about 2500mah or more.

Gee,I see the prices have increased.When I bought mine you could get them for under USD$11 posted. As I did.
I have 3500mAh baterry now. It can joice my phone for a week, but it is kinda heavy and ugly, so I am using it only if I have to leave town for a weekend. It can survive even hard usage, playing games, and such. Took it from eBay.
I got mine delivered today. Charging as we speak. I ran across a site that exposes fake batteries and worry if this 3500mah battery is really just a big 2000mah battery now. Heres the site. What I noticed is that these ultra expensive Mugen batteries are so lowly rated. It seems that OEM batteries are best but they don't have a 3000mah battery! Hmmmmmmm

Seems that if it's too short you could just glue/wedge a piece of cardboard along the bottom edge. Seems like a pretty good way to get 20% more battery life.
Cool!! If these hit $8 let me know!

I bought a $45 1600mAh seidio battery (from amazon), and for some reason the Stock battery was better..
GO figure...
Stock is 5.8mm
Seidio is 6.3mm
(on the widest thickness)
the 1800mAh is in the phone, and i dont feel like pullin it out, but its slightly larger then the Seidio battery.
This battery is way better then stock & Seidio...

This also works for the Vibrant. Pretty sweet for us!
1800mAh Battery Size is:
51.5mm Tall
50.83mm Wide
6.15mm Thick (at thickest point)
So its thinner than the seidio battery

Mugen Power 3000mAh Power Case for Sony Xperia Z / Docomo Xperia Z SO-02E [CC-XPERIAZ

Do you find the Sony Xperia Z’s 2330mAh battery a bit lacking? If so you may want to check out Mugen Power’s latest offering. The specialist third-party provider of smartphone extended batteries, has announced a 3000mAh ‘Power Case‘ for the Xperia Z. Traditionally Mugen Power would provide a replaceable battery with larger back cover if needed. However, as the Xperia Z has a sealed enclosure this wasn’t possible. Therefore, judging by the picture it looks like the jacket provides power through the dock pins. Whilst the case takes away some of the clean lines of the handset it may be useful for those who do a lot of travelling. The battery ships on 12 July at a cost of $89.50 with free shipping worldwide.

I am thinking to order this one, need expert opinion on this power case!

Yeah me too, was hoping mugen or mophie would come out with a battery case, as they're reliable brands with a proven track record. I really considered getting the power bank but figured I'd wait for something more reliable like this to come along.

So the Xperia Z then has a total of 5333mAh battery capacity, so that's a lot.

MUGEN battery and ebay battery come from the same place...china
only reason Mugen cost so much because they been in business longer, these battery works but expect your phone to be hot. I have the power bank one and they work OK. I dont like the extra wideness of the phone.
Looks cool. Is that heavy?
This is gonna make the phone more uncomfortable to hold! Makes it too big.

check the other thread i made for the china one.. does nt make it look large at all and to top it its very nice feel and does not really spoil the look of the phone... quite satisfied with the product...
best part just 20 bucks and doesnt make your phone hot at all...
Anyone ordered this?
There's a demo video of this on youtube. Think I'll get this, it looks great and hopefully with a 1 year warranty it won't have the issues that's affected the cheaper chinese battery cases.

In China there are different quality plants that produce different quality devices. At Mugen Power we create our products using components that alone cost around what the other case costs on eBay. We can of course use batteries that long "expired" according to our standards - they will last for 6-7 months and you will have to buy a new one. We cannot really justify this, that is why we produce the batteries that will last 1.5-2 years and, yes, they cost the above mentioned money. Hope I cleared it up a little

Well that may be because it's expensive.. $90 is alot but still it's Mugen. I have seen people prefer to carry 12000mAh charger with them which can charge multiple devices. Rather than battery cases which increase the overall weight and size of device.

AceSoft 3380mAh Extended Slim Battery

Has anyone ordered/received this one yet? I find it hard to believe it will be better than the ZeroLemon 3000 mAh (they are known to make efficient batteries, and they had to compromise on thickness and lack of NFC), but if anyone buys one of these a report would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: These are fake, don't buy them!
Oh hell no.
Chinese battery makers are NOTORIOUS for exaggerating MaH claims. Especially eBay batteries.
Never buy any batteries unless you have seen LOT's of trustworthy looking reviews.
Some mfg's will give themselves positive reviews.

Some American sellers of inexpensive items actually buy in bulk at a discount from Chinese companies and flip the items for a profit in the USA.
I've actually considered doing the same thing.
I do appreciate you sharing though!
Cuz you never know!?!

Yep, just a reseller peddling no name low quality batteries.

That makes sense. Sadly he's making loads of money off of unsuspecting people. And it's not even cheap, he's taking full advantage of it.
say hello to one of the dummies...
I just randomly found it and was like hheeellll yeeaaahhh!!! Received it yesterday after paying $36 and after 3 hours and 45 minutes of use I'm at 75% ....I don't see a single bit of difference...
Google "Chinese wholesale phone batteries"
It's easy to buy smartphone batteries at $1-$3 per battery. Resell for $10 on eBay and Amazon.
No wonder eBay on Amazon is littered with battery resellers.

Sorry for resurrecting this thread, but I get about 3 hr on stock battery and end up at 50% or so. So this battery deffinatly adds some time
Dang. I was just gonna make a thread about this. Any ways, I've had similar results to above post. Lasted 21 hours before fully dying. I am however constantly connected to wifi both at home and work so 4G is rarely used. Very pleased with my purchase.

I mostly love the fact that I can used the same back plate and cases I already have and am able to get enough juice for a full days use.
EDIT: And the NFC works like a freaking beast just like OEM. The Anker and Hyperion batteries I've bought that were supposedly "NFC" worked 2 times out of 10 and did NOT work through any of my cases. This one works 10/10 scanning my various tags just like the OEM battery does and works through most of my cases. (Not the metal ones of course.)
So would you highly recommend this battery? I've been looking for an extended battery since upgrading from my s3.

Cool, so does the link in the OP get me the same one? Or can you link me one? I really appreciate the recommendation!

Yep. That's the one. I did get mine at Amazon though, a little bit more but that's for the extra charger though which for me only makes sense for spare battery.

Official S4 Extra Battery Kit

I haven't seen any thread on this so I decided to start one. I've been using the zerolemon 3000mah(what they marketed it as) batteries after my stock one bloated and gave out. Well, the problem is the wall charger that they come with is very low quality. So I've been looking at the official samsung battery kit and was wondering if it will be able to charge my stock-sized zerolemon's too.
Those who are using it, feel free to comment and discuss. [emoji2]
It works great!
I've been using it and it works great it lets me keep my battery in good health getting a full recgarge and discharge it charges the batteries really fast as well althougj im just using the stock battery im sure you wont have a problem charging youre larger size you just may not be abel to close the door on charging kit which isnt much of a problem

Cool. I find it funny that amazon is selling it for more than the S5 and Note 3's battery kits. How much did u pay for urs and where did u get it from? [emoji16]
I lucked out
I actually got lucky lol my grandmother went garage selling and she bought a box of stuff that had different electronics in it and it was actually in the box she picked up for 10 bucks lol :good:

Lol. Hope yours isn't a chinese knockoff then. They are cheaper and I've seen ppl posting pics of their entire charger burnt up with the battery inside. [emoji33]
Haha
Lol haha no sir it actually had the samsung paperwork instructions with it so its definitely not a knockoff I would be upset if that happened

That's good. Coz samsung sells it for an exorbitant amount.

I just got the Anker® 7800mAh Extended Battery Combo for Samsung Galaxy S4.
Great solution but heave and thick.

I did consider that. But yeah I don't think I'll prefer the added size of that thing. Just enjoy swapping batteries and getting them charged up quickly more.
Plus I don't live in the U.S so I would need to pay extra for a forwarder to ship it over. Enjoy that massive battery life, buddy. [emoji1]

I have a 5800 mah battery, it lasts 3 days at best. My original battery barely lasted 1 day. I am pretty happy with the battery but the phone is defenseless against falls:crying:

Get a tempered glass screen protector on it and you'll be fine. [emoji41]
UPDATE: Alright in case anyone is interested, I managed to get the s4's extra battery kit at a pretty cheap price (usd39) off my local seller. [emoji16]
And good news to those of u using aftermarket stock-sized batteries. They DO work with the external charger. I'm using zerolemon's and the charger gave off a flashing ember initially when I tried to charge it. But after awhile of fiddling with it I got it to work. [emoji1] It charges almost as fast as plugging your phone directly to the ac. Now I don't need to plug my phone to the wall ever again.
