Mugen is pretty expensive.. any other cheaper but good brand/model?
i am using mugen 3200, i will score it 8.5/10, the bad points are the case very loose and blocked flash light in a certain degree.
Nothing some blutack wont fix. And no I don't know. There's a post further down documenting some people's experiances with ebay if you want to look for it

Well if you willing to sacrifice your phone's look go ahead and try it, but it will get very ugly with that thickness...

Where can i buy one of those? i never seen such a big battery.
Remember you'll always get what you pay for. If you want a second battery buy an orginal one.
thx for all your advices
i finally opted for an oem battery for desire/nexus one
I'm got the 3200mAh from saido. It's a great battery and worth its price!

how much is it? where did u buy it?
The "ebay" batteries tends to have smaller capacity than announced.

Exacly...anything over original 1400 is bs in my opinion. I've heard about 3000mAh for HTC Evo but that battery is much bigger in size and require custom back case.
i got myself a 3200mAh mugen battery from the states best thing i ever did lasting for 5 days now on one charge
I bought a 3000mAh Extended Battery from the seller.

what rom are you on when you have 5 days duration ?
It's great if you want your battery to last days without charge but terrible if you want a nice sleak phone due to the fact that the 3200amh batteries add extra thickness to the phone which really makes it look ugly in my opinion. Mugen power batteries are really good though they are expensive. I'd be weary about buying from eBay because although they may be cheaper, a lot of the times they're not the capacity stated and have bad quality lithium ions that simply don't hold a charge!
Can I buy it in Ukraine? Somebody know?
I have a 3000mAh battery, but the only way I can get a full charge is with an external charger.
Then I can get between 3-4days from 1 charge.
Charging the 3000mAh in my phone, doesn't seem to last any longer than a standard battery.
It was $10 with free shipping so I thought it was worth a shot... I received it about 2 days ago and I cannot tell the difference between the stock battery..
This sucks!
So yes, obviously I didn't expect it to be 4500 mah for $10 but I thought it will be at least 3200 or 3000. It is not.
I just want to warn others before they buy it and to hear other peoples experiences if there are any.
If you want a decent extended battery, buy the Hyperion.
I have that batt and the matching honeycomb case you can get with it and I love it.
I never have to worry about battery life anymore (even running stuff like iheart radio or Sirius online which both totally kill battery life)
I even like the feel/weight of the phone with it installed. When I bought it, I figured I would only use it occasionally. Now that I am used to using it, I never take it off the phone. The phone with the standard battery and my awesome rock quicksand case feels way too thin to me now (something I never thought I would say)
thanks morton....
I will try to see if I can return this battery.
I looked at amazon for the battery you recommended. I found it but I also found another battery: (I can't post a link)
It's called QCell and it is rated at 4200.
Any thoughts on this one?
The one you recommended is more popular but this one has NFC and it also has much more reviews.
Another thing to consider is the separate cradle battery charger that comes with a 2100 battery. This way there is always a battery on charge for a quick swap.
Weigh it. At the most basic, the amount of active material in a battery determines its overall capacity. A 4500mAh battery should be significantly heavier (roughly double) than the stock battery.
Another vote here for the Hyperion 4000 mAh battery. Very happy with it!!!
:good:
What website is this hyperion battery?

Think I'll wait a bit to see if anyone brings out a slim 2800 to 3300 battery with a matching back.

I find this to be the easiest for me. I hate extra bulk, so I just have multiple standard batteries ready on tap.

Hi Guys,
i got my S4 9505 from 1 month and i very very happy with it..also for good battery life, but we have removable battery and maybe there is some battery better than original..
I looking for a battery with the original size dimension but more big than the original..but above all really big.. not only write on it.. but it must to be really extended..
if someone use some battery extended with original size and is certain that is extended can give me information about your battery life, screen on time and link for buy it?
Thanks
No suggestions?
Please note it is not physically possible to accommodate more capacity into the battery for the same size, if that was possible I guess samsung would had done that for us. However why not purchase extra charger and battery case made by samsung.
But I do see Mugen doing a change by providing 2750mAh battery of same size. Check here at amazon.
Or you might have to get large extended battery and find the best the chose from.
I think battery up to 3500 mAh on ebay can suited the original back cover (according to seller description). Many of those selling these batteries on ebay, but I still haven't try one. Maybe later I'll try.

No, impossible. They claim to be 3500's but the are not. Most/all of the aftermarket high(er) capacity batteries are bogus, capacity wise.
above user is correct, don't go for chinese counterfeits claiming 3500 in same capacity and dimensions. I think the mugen is the only one out there, but its rather a stupidity.

i found this http://www.ebay.it/itm/ZeroLemon-2x...hone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item19e14ab68c&_uhb=1
its seems 3000mAh.. but i dont know this ZeroLemon and if this battery are good..
someone know or use this 3000mAh ZeroLemon?
Ps. Thanks guys for your replys :good:
I had a Zero Lemon slim extended battery on my SGS3. It was 2400mah vs the stock 2100. It was pretty good, giving an extra 30-45 minutes or so extra screen time and another 90-120 minutes of run time. If you find you're just cutting it close at the end of the day and you can't charge mid-day, it's worth the $20 for a pair of them plus a charger. You can get them on Amazon too. I haven't bought the S4 versions yet but I plan to - my wife and I can each get a little more battery life for a total of $20 that way.
You lose NFC, though. that's probably why they have a higher capacity - no NFC antenna. If you use that feature, or S-Beam or whatever, skip the Zero Lemons.

Hi guys,
nobody have tryed this battery http://www.ebay.it/itm/ZeroLemon-2x...hone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item19e14ab68c&_uhb=1 on GS4?
I'd like to know if is good battery, if is not dangerous and if is true extendend..
thanks
I ended up with a Hyperion because it would fit the Seidio Extended (and it did perfectly). I was not at all impressed with the reviews on teh 3000mah ZeroLemon because it seems like it was thicker than the stock battery and put a bit of a bulge on the battery door. I was afraid it would not fit cases properly so I skipped it.

i researched a lot on zerolemon ...
their product is good and is as stated no scams !!
i couldnt buy it coz they were charging $19.99 + $17(shipping) and i bought the original samsung battery kit for $32 where i live .....
but i had researched a lot on the company before making the decision towards them.... only regret is samsung gave me 1 battery + charger 1.7mAh .... zerolemon was giving 2 batteries + chrager 600mAh.... so i basically traded only battery for a charger that charges a battery in 1hr and 30mins 0% --> 100% .....
so whats the best rate for getting a good 12 to 14 hour outta your batt
Hello guys, this battery is good?
http://www.tinydeal.com/pt/4350mah-...t-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-s5-p-123321.html
Bought and i'm waiting for it.
NO!
Dont ever buy gold batterys! there all fakes.
Try ankar or zerolemon
i have a 7500mah anker battery for my s5. it is beast. even on the first day of ownership of the anker battery, i noticed a huge increase in battery life. i highly recommend the anker 7500mah battery or zerolemon battery. both are reviewed with high ratings on amazon and the respective anker and zerolemon sites.

Yeah,Anker,Zerolemon and Onite batteries are very popular on Amazon.
It's 4 dollars. You have nothing to lose.
Except if it's really crap quality and it overheats and ends up shorting your device. Or even worse catching fire or something.
looking at the same battery right now.
Is it any good? better than stock battery? last longe, doesn't get hot... ?
The cells in those cheap batteries just aren't up to the job of high drain phones like the S5, so all you doing is risking the battery shorting or overheating and going pop inside your phone, so spend a few dollars extra and get an Anker battery because they are good.
And thinking about the capacity they pronounce you never ever will get even near 4000mAh or more mAh with a LiIon/Poly battery with the dimensions of the original S5 battery.
We had a thread here about MPJ replacement battery for the S5 (thread at xda, producers webshop) which should be a 4300mAh version. I only bought it in order to check the capacity because there was a big discussion on this. I checked it with a special computer driven battery charger and with the S5 itself. It had nearly the same capacity as my some month old original S5 battery. I cannot say anything about long term use because I only tested it for some weeks.
So my recommendation would be get an original battery directly from Samsung (in order to not get a fake) or look after Anker (I tested it good with my S3), Zerolemon, MPJ. They are more or less proved quality.
Hi,
Just last month I picked up Galaxy Note 4 and I need a spare battery backup. My last Galaxy S3 has several spares from mpj, but I am now having a tough time deciding which kind of spare battery for the Note 4. My concern with the mpj 6440 mah is the increased size/weight with the case, but on the other hand extended battery life is going to be exactly twice times as capacious as the standard battery. I’ve never used extended battery, how did you guys adapt to them? Is it worth a try?
I have a selection for different use cases. I've got some OEM batteries to swap out when needed, and a Hyperion extended battery for those times when a bulkier phone is less trouble that swapping batteries.
If you're ok with adding some bulk to your phone, you're definitely should give it a try. Basically, you have 2 options: Hyperion (8000 mAh, not much of the bulk) and Zerolemon (10000 mAh, but makes Note 4 brick sized and have lots of issues with battery level reading). I'm waiting for my Hyperion to arrive, so from my point of view, I would recommend a Hyperion.

Best battery with no issues
BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S
Mugen also has a battery coming out. It's 6640 mAh, which is basically twice the size of the oem battery and suppose to have Qi wireless charging and NFC for 89.99. Im going with the Hyperion myself
Mugen battery looks nice but its way too expensive (http://mugen.co/mugen-power-6640mah...-samsung-galaxy-note-4-with-battery-door.html). Zerolemon seems to have issues with calibration which sounds it is due to its TriCell. I for one am thinking of getting the Hyperion battery. However, I contacted ZeroLemon about a week ago and they told me that they were releasing a smaller size extended battery in 2 weeks. I would prefer this one, if its true, because they have a nicer case and hopefully its only a single cell battery also.

Wow, they want to build some suspense, huh?
I've used extended batteries before but with the great battery life of the N4 and it's aggressively styled good looks I found having an extra battery is all I need. I actually don't even need it with my 7 hour screen on time but I like having even more than that for intense days. The spare battery gives me all the battery life I need plus some and my N4 doesn't look like a weapon/brick.

He probably using stock spare. Pics are posted all over threads of how the phone looks. Really just 2 options in looks . a ugly slippery back or a huge brick that can go for days. Either it depends on how bad u need the phone to survive.
BAD ASS NOTE 4 & BAD ASS GEAR S
Mugen Battery 6440 mAH
I got the Mugen battery for the Note 4 just for 4 days now and it is nice. I got around 10-12 hrs screen on time but the percentage is still dropping fast.
The back cover is fine for me (not slippery)
When I check CPU-Z the battery capacity states that it is only 3220 mAH, is it possible to adjust this? I found a Mugen battery profile app but it is outdated from 2013 and root is required.
Can anyone help me?
I've tried them in the past but the size of them always put me off in the end. Note 4 has adaptive fast charging so for me I could just plug it in at work mid day and bump back up to 100 before leaving the office and the whole thing became moot. Its a shame I need 2 charges to get me through the day though, but oh well.
The choices for extended battery cases are simply too insufficient!
Zerolemon is the best it protect you phone and also support NFC :good:
