bay 2300mAh Battery $17

Just received mine in the mail today from China. Thanks to s0cc3rstud for the find. I am going to test it out and come back to do a write up on the results after a few days. First off though it only looks a tiny bit bigger then stock. Although it feels heavier. But then again that could be the placebo effect.
2300mAh Battery for HTC Sensation G14 Pyramid z710e

interesting. I wonder how they packed so much juice into only a slightly larger battery.
Let us know if it lives up to the 2300mAh.

Best test you could run is to get/borrow a voltage meter and test the actual capacity of the battery.

I just got mine today as well. Initiallly it was almost full so I topped it off. The battery is draining fast. Almost 15% in first hour in standby, but I will drain it and recharge and see. Listing stated to drain and charge 3 times to get peak performance

Also don't forget to wipe battery stats.

let us know your results.
Be weary for low quality batteries as it can destroy your equipment.

Might be wrong but this sounds too good to be true. I even doubted the anker 1900 Mah for 10 bucks but bought it after so many positive review. Let us know.

I got a free 2300mAh battery for my Sensation and it works fine.. I think it lasts longer than my official HTC battery but it's hard to really test it because I'd have to fully charge and then kill both batteries doing exactly the same tasks for the same amount of time.. but honestly I think the 2300 is better..

8 hours of mild use, no wifi, no gps and Im less than 20%. That sucks. Not as good as I expected. I will drain dry and erase battery stats via recovery one more time and see what happens.

please post results =]

I think this is 1200mah
Get it tested.

ok, testing continued.....
Phone sat untouched all night with no charger plugged in. Went from 100% to 70% in 11 hours. Im still not convinced that the battery is still 2400 mAh

Well day two was interesting. First off I can say without a doubt in my mind that this is NOT a 2300 mah. Seems to hold better then stock though... but not by much. I unplugged it at 6am and with moderate use it is now at 18%. Battery indicator app. say it has been unplugged for 14 hour and 40 mins. So I guess over all $17 for a spare isn't bad at all. Just really wish it lived up to the promise.

Also, I drained all the way yesterday and let it charge over night and wiped battery stats through recovery. Going to repeat again tonight to see what happens.

Ok. Same as above. No way its 2300 mAh. Spare battery maybe. But other than that its crap.

Open it up. It's probably like the "made in japan gold business" battery - a small battery with spacers on the sides

when will people learn. there is no magic way to squeeze another several hundred mAH into the same size. these batteries are almost always a scam. check out www.batteryboss.org for a guy who tested several of these some time back.

Ok found a nice apk that give the mah of the battery. Looks like it is 1580 mah.

Your wrong. That is standard for that app to say 1580mah for the sensation. You can make it say that the battery is 5000mah!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e

$17 is way too much for a spare. I got supposedly 3 1600MAh (I would guess they would be 800MAh-1200MAh actually) batteries and an external battery charger for $16. Also, nicky041192, why would a battery app say 1580MAh no matter what battery you had in it, considering the stock battery is 1520MAh.

2300 mAh battery for HTC Sensation found...any Reviews?

Hi,
today I found this extremly big battery on ebay, but I can't really believe that high capacity...It's got 50% more capacity!
Maybe someone here already got it?

it looks slightly thicker than the original.

Try it out and tell us.
I think it's fake though.

I still prefer my 3200 mAh one.

Why do you think it's fake? There are bigger ones out there!

Because it looks quite fake and it's on ebay as well. It most likely isn't truely 2300 mAh.

Could anyone test this akku-packs until now? I am thinking of order some...

For value, quality & actually results look no further than the Anker 1900 mAh. Plus it doesn't require a larger battery back. It delivers better than anything else in my opinion. Especially if you refuse to carry a brick in your pocket like those extended back batteries!

what du u mean? 1900 anker and 2300 dpd x14 BOTH don't need an own back-cover, do they!?

They are for real
I use 2 of them. They work. They extend the life of the Sensation 4G by about 60%. They do not require a special backplate. They do not run hot according to battery utilities I have. The case does not get hot if I charge it with the phone off, although, of course, the battery charges more quickly. The battery does not seem to take a lot of extra time to charge, but then I usually put it on to charge overnight.
I can get a solid 12 hours with all the goodies on, browsing, a little GPS, full screen brightness, 5-8 minute timeout, fully syncing, etc. I would call my settings flat-out power hog settings.
They seem a little picky on chargers. My car charger is fine. Standard 500mAH USB cable to computer is fine. The OEM HTC wall charger only gets it up to about 2/3's charge. of my 2 aftermarket wall chargers, one juices it all the way, the other cops out.

err. you guys do realize that even if the specification of mAh isn't fake, the fact that its rated at 4.2v should scare you into not buying this batery. sensation battery is often rated at 3.7-3.8v range.
edit: whoops. just saw that its the charging limit of 4.2v which is the same for the other sensation batteries. nonetheless this seems too good to be true

Can't find it on Ebay

Or the ChiChiTec 1900mAh, it's only 23 bucks on Amazon, 30 bucks for 2, and it's an instant 20% extra battery.

I bought 2 of these exact same ones, and according to my battery monitor widget, they are 1900mah battery's, not the 2300 they claim. But still much much better than stock i recommend them
Edit: and it fits into the regular cover just fine in my case

Do you use Battery Monitor Widget. If yes, can you tell us the measured capacity of the battery?

OMG 2300 mAh, what's the stand by time for this thing? Like a month? A beast!

Extended battery thoughts

Anyone here invest in an extended battery with case and have any input on their experience with it? I have heard hyperion is good but it has very mixed reviews online and there are issues with getting a decent back plate. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

16% screen time? Well I can last longer on stock battery
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

I bought an extended battery 4500mah on ebay for $8 a couple weeks ago from ebay. It makes the phone twice as thick, but the battery lasts all day with moderate use. I haven't put my phone on the charger mid-day since I bought it. Being that its a cheap generic battery, there is no brand name and I can't verify the capacity is accurate, but it is getting the job done. I'm at work and can't really give any more specifics, but heres a quick comparison
Pros: 1 overnight charge lasts all day, phone not much heavier, GSAM app seems to accurately adapt, Thicker case seems to protect rear camera and light better without obstructing them. Makes you more attractive to opposite gender (this may be a false claim)
Cons: Phone thicker, loss of NFC chip, longer charge time, must charge from lower capacity to avoid confusing battery estimation mechanisms (under 40ish%) Harder to find protective cases, and old ones will not fit.

the gs3 is the first phone i haven't thought of buying a bigger battery for. i get great life with the stock one, much better than my razr maxx had.

I was about to buy one of these extend bateries,but making the phone twice as thick is a turn off....

Thanks for all the responses so far. What I did was buy another oem nfc enabled battery, and a phone mount charger with battery charger. I am actually getting all day charge with heavy use and switching in a fresh one before sleep. The only reason I was curious about extended was because I enjoy hiking and photography. But unless you get 2 days use it doesn't appear to be much better than buying multiple stock batteries.

i ended up getting the extended battery from hyperion on amazon.
i live in miami, and lost power for like 2 days over a month back and instantly i realized i needed this fat battery.
it actually feels better when i grip it. and i love that i forget at times to charge and its all good.
i got it for my wife since she is always killing her phone. it goes all day sometimes 1 day and half.
it's funny though because the size may turn you off but size wize it matches other friends of mine who also have the s3 and they over do it with the thick cases and stock battery.

Does anyone know how to reset the phone to give an accurate read out of the bigger battery?
Is there such a need to do so?
With these batteries the specs for a OEM battery is like days in standby. Would not one think that an extended battery would last weeks, and not drain in a day of hanging out in your pocket with little WiFi, calls, and text messages?
I know the ones they sell on e bay and Amazon are old new batteries as they have been sitting in storage and shelf live has caught up to them.
This is the only explanation for such a short time before having to recharge them.
I have never had a brand new hot off the press battery, as I get my phones at the pawn shop discounted. Hence they are already discontinued by the service providers.
I wouldn't even trust buying a new OEM battery from them as there is no telling how long they have had there batteries in stock just sitting there getting old depreciating.

I agree - stock battery is good but I bought an extended anyway for longer gaming sessions.
I use the stock battery when at work so I can use my otterbox, but in my leisure time the hyperion battery rocks. No complaints on the stock battery, liking the hyperion as well.
My complaint is losing data service under 50% battery - hyperion staves that off longer.

But does hyperion really offer more than a day these responses seem to confirm my worries of it not being double as advertised but maybe in the 1.25 to 1.75 range? And if all the stock batteries have been sitting on the shelf how would the hyperion battery be any different? I am really considering investing in a hyperion still because 3 batteries would be ownage and I generally go on hikes for 2 to 3 days and my 2 stocks might not make it. Climbing a peak and taking a panoramic is truly special. But at this point investing in a new case with a hyperion might be more hassle than buying some more oems on the cheap.
Anyways thanks for the responses everyone. And PROTIP storing your battery at 50% in a dry cool place is what is recommended for long term storage. Also I learned recently that letting your battery go through a full discharge and then recharging actually leads to a longer battery life span, by a huge factor!
PS sorry admins and others I just joined this forum and realize this whole thread should have been placed in the accessories section I hope my gaff does not make you think less of me.

Well first remember 16% becomes a larger number when you have more capacity also there were several other items being used. Also this was the first tinting charge of a cycle. The phone talk time ended up over 4 hours or so as well also I need several restarts. I am happy with it

So, it annoyed me the Galaxy S III battery was 2100 mah vice our 1800, but physically smaller (albeit a hair thicker)

this is interesting... is the s3 battery rated at 3.8v too? also, did you really see that 16% improvement in battery life?

Battery life is better yes. And most cell phone batteries are 3.8 volts, and report as "full" at around 4.2 volts, although the app I use for battery monitoring shows the relay is charging my battery to 4.3 volts.

The stock battery life on our phone is pretty decent. But I wonder what kind of extended slim battery options we have for our phone specifially....
Great mod Nard. The S3 battery is very common and I think all aftermarket extended slim batteries for the S3 should work as well. As long as you don't have a problem ghetto rigging it, we can get a lot more juice for out phones. And it retains NFC. Massive plus
Quite intrigued with this one:

Holy cow, an extra 28% battery life for under $5? Heck yes! Just ordered this.
Edit: Don't see NFC mentioned anywhere... I don't use NFC, but just in case I decide I want to start, I'll pick up one of these, and solder the guy on if I need to. Looks to be about the right size.

@Nardholio
I have one S3 battery, though from KINPS with 3250mAh that I got last time, which is 5mm thick (1mm more than ours) and should be allegedly same size to the S3 stock one.
But I am not able to close the back cover when I want to use it according to your instruction. that 1mm is definitely too thick and does not let me close it.
would you please confirm that yours is 5mm also or is it less than that?
if the prior, how did you manage to close the back cover?
if the latter, i would go buy a S3 stock battery.

If it's really that tight, I would try and carefully remove the sticker and see if it fits.
Compare it to the stock battery. Shouldn't be much thicker than that

I got a 3 pack of those batteries. All the three of them are just lying at home, their actual capacity was 2100mAh. Besides it didn't charge over 87%, which is 1800mAh approx. Don't know what the problem was, guessing it was the maximum voltage the battery could be pushed to using the phone. :/

Just let them sit overnight, they'll charge more

Actually the big possibility behind this is samsung has a battery overcharge feature...which is why your battery may only get that high...also Another cause might be to check and make sure your charger is outputting 5v 800ma as thats what is required by phone...i use stock charger with my 5000mah extended battery and loving it...gets full charge with both stock and extended battery....also to note...because of this overcharge feature depending on bad flash or similar it may actually brick your batteries (yes its possible). A prime example is i thought my old relay was bricked...when i got new relay i tried charging the battery from old phone and got the bootloop of death like i did on my old relay..so it got me thinking...and i placed battery from new relay and it booted right up as if a brick never happenned..i started to really research this and found ways to prevent this from ever happenning again as well as finding out about the samsung overcharge "issues" .

Besides when i used the battery, it lost charge out quite quickly and when i did a little research on the batteries, i found out given the size the batteries are likely to be fake and that the best batteries are the stock ones. The big extended batteries are however a different story altogether though. Anyway, i'd charge them overnight once and see if anything happens.
Here's hoping to the phone not bursting and burning my house down!!:fingers-crossed:

a good example...i went from 6 am to now 8:30 pm on my extended and its now at 75% batterry....i only paid 30 with tax and stuff total for my extended and happy i got it...again though...a lower voltage and ma charger will cause issues with battery drain and charge as well...like lets say you used a charger from another android device that calls for 4.5 or 5 volts but only 750ma or 500ma.... in terms it doesnt charge the phone properly causing more workload and time for battery to charge properly

I bought the extended battery of mugenpower (2300mah) for Samsung Galaxy S3. I scratched To insert the battery. The time now is charging but the cover does not close. probably also'll scratch the cover.

I am extremely satisfied with the results, the battery life has improved considerably. Now I can get to the evening, with the old battery arrived at midday
I had to scratch the back cover to be able to close.

Mugen 6640 mah extended battery will be here soon!

So i got a Note 4 recently and immediately went for the Mugen Power 6640 mah extended battery. I just missed the FedEx truck today, hopefully i can swing by there tomorrow or else i will have to wait til monday. The battery life on the Note 4 is pretty good, coming from my HTC One M7, and the quick charge is VERY nice, but i really think i need this extended battery.
I will be posting some results from my experience with pictures of course in the coming days, as soon as i get my hands on the thing that is.

Yes that's the same battery. I see there's quite a few pages on that thread, did anyone actually post test results, i went through the last few pages and didn't see much. I did notice someone said the case i bought should fit, (fingers crossed)

How have you found the battery life? Reason I'm asking is because I've tried the Anker 6440 extended battery and unless I didn't "condition" it properly I didn't see much of a better battery life than stock battery. Why I'm returning it.
For me gonna try the cheap battery cases like the knock off Mophie types from eBay and Amazon.

Last night I tried to kill it from a full charge. I got over almost 7.5 hours of screen on time mostly just running cpu+gpu stability test within full brightness, GPS, wifi, Bluetooth enabled with sync going every 15 minutes.

That's pretty good. For me I don't find much difference so I'm returning mine but glad you're getting better results than me. I also have the zerolemon 10,000 mAh beast but way too bulky for normal use.
Hopefully my cheap power bank battery cases come soon and I can try it out. For $17 shipped I figure not much to lose

Also you probably get what you pay for there. The Mugen is a $90 product, the Anker is a $30 product. You can't possibly think they are the same quality even though they are both rated the same capacity.

Kinda like i was saying before, with lithium ion stuff and also varying types of battery packs chemistry, usually you get what you pay for. I've used Mugen products on my Tmobile G2, HTC Evo 3d, and my One m7, all performed the same for the 2 years i had the phone, the cheap ones don't last the length of the contract.

That's true I guess but I've tried both Anker and Hyperion extended batteries and they're supposed to be reputable companies. And both don't seem to last as long as their advertised battery sizes. For me I'm not willing to pay $90 to get a few extra on screen hours (I'm averaging about 6 hrs OST with stock battery)

I'm sure I could get a lot of screen on time with normal use like power saver with auto brightness. Remember those numbers I got with screen on are maximum power consumption, max screen brightness, wifi, GPS, Bluetooth with a benchmark running both cpu and gpu at the same time. I guess it would be useful to see how long the stock battery does under the same conditions to get the big picture. 7.5 hours under those conditions has to translate to much more with power saver reducing cpu usage and auto brightness. I don't need full cpu speed unless I'm playing games.

thanx for sharing

I am still in the process of conditioning the battery. It stays at like 1% for 3 hours of full brightness screen time on the stabilty test cpu/gpu app. It's very good battery life so far. Will report back when i get everything together. Heres a couple teasers.

Here's a couple of pictures I'm still conditioning the battery and testing it too.
