Has anyone considered doing the case mod for the anker 5200mah extended battery yet? I am on Verizon unfortunately so I still have another week to wait to receive my s4 but I currently have the note 2 and I use an otter box defender that I used a dremel tool to cut a hole in the back of the stock battery cover and the back of the hard shell of the otterbox so that the larger anker 6200mah will fit and you barely notice the silicone outer case having a slight bulge. I think it will work with this one too but was just curious as to whether anyone has tried it or is planning to do so like I am.
It may rather huge, am I right?
No more so than just using the defender case by itself. It's not really thicker just a little heavier which makes it feel sturdier to me lol
Any pics?
Whats your opinion on the Anker battery packs? I am considering getting the Anker® Astro3 as it is extremely versatile and 10,000 mah great for ER's
I'll post pics ASAP. I have gotten really good performance from anker batteries. From what I have read about people comparing the extended batteries, the mugen batteries barely outperform the ones from anker and for the price they are incredible. The mugen battery at the same mah was like 140 or so where as the anker was 20 bucks with shipping from amazon. I easily get 2± full days of moderate usage from my note 2 with This 6200mah battery. I know the one for the s4 is smaller but should still perform well.
Hi, I'm using Anker 5200 battery for my S4, which is great. However i dont like that my phone is unprotected on the screen. Is there any extended cases for a 5200 mah battery that you can suggest?

Seido just released their Active extended case that is built for their 4500 mah battery. There is a good possibility that it might fit. Would be interesting to see. I'm currently using my 2 zerolemon 3000 mah batteries with my qi wireless charging receiver and random cases and it works great together. I can usually go 10-18 hrs depending on use during the day at work. My wifi, bluetooth and gps run all day, everyday.
It looks a little bit bulky, and yes i know the extended battery is big too, but i bought a slim case for S3 for my extended battery and that was really slim
I have also seen some on ebay, but the quality of them are always very low ( have tried them)

I have seen a 4200mAh external battery case, not tested though.

Have you taken a look at Incipio's offGRID case?
I'm not sure how well it will protect the front of your screen but it definitely looks pretty slim and has a front attachment that may act like a bumper (I'll post more once I get my review unit in).

Yes, I am also looking for a protective case to fit the various 5200 mah batteries that are available.
The Incipio's offGRID case is a case that contains an auxiliary battery but not meant to fit over an extended in phone battery.
The Seido Active extended case is very bulky and may interfere with auto dashboard mounts and the Wilson Sleek amplifier.
Does anyone know if the edge thickness of the phone changes with the Hyperion 5200mAh battery? From the pics online it looks like it does not.

double capacity battery = double thickness. in this case a new battery cover as well
I recently read about the Hyperion battery which basically allows you to swap your existing battery for an 8000 mAh battery, and comes with a different case. I think the stock battery is something like 3250mAh.
What other batteries are out for the Galaxy Note 4 and in what capacities? I'm not asking for charging boxes. Secondly, are there any cases available to fit these larger battery packs?

There's Zerolemon extended battery 10k mah (I think) which is like a brick but it is a rugged case (many users have problems with the battery calibration. Mugen Extended battery with qi charging and a stand but has no TPU cases available, no protection whatsoever.
I like the Hyperion 8k because it offers a TPU case and it also doesn't add much bulk
Waiting for my Hyperion to arrive. Zerolemon is too bulky and with all that battery reading issues i've decided to go with less capacity but more comfort.
I'm no stranger to bulk. I currently use a UAG case and I love the size. I'm wondering how they compare in size.
looking for the zerolemon case for nexus 4 or any other battery case. it can be new or used.
