I’ve been sticking with my Note 2 for years and just waiting until the Note 4 to upgrade. I came always with mixed feelings with the Note series. Loved the great display, superior hardware in the hood and S Pen, but found it was not convenient to carry. I was successfully controlled my desire not to buy a Note 3, because the improvements are minor, but for the Note 4, just regret to read those reviews on it lol.
Already fell in love with this device! Yesterday I received an email from MPJ asking me if I am willing to enter their giveaway for Note 4 extended batteries. They had sent me a free Note 2 4500mah battery for testing before and frankly Note 4 battery life is outstanding and replacement is no need for temporarily, but it definitely can't hurt to enter, so I will post my review as long as they send me a free sample.

Thank you. I like their battery for Note 3.
Whats the difference between this and a power bank? I have that power bank, and it serves the purpose of an external battery... pretty straightforward, too.
Don't have a Note 4. I hope I can request one sample for my galaxy s5

Correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't it void the phone's warranty when using third-party batteries?
I have to admit I was quite skeptical about the battery and now I AM A BELIEVER!

Not only does it look ugly, you probably won't be able put on a case with bigger back cover. I would just get a 3220mAh Battery for back up.
I have the 6440mah one. The phone charges under normal use once every 3 days and the display can last over 8 hrs depending on brightness.
How are you doing this? Are you running custom rom/kernal? I have the 8k hyperion and I don't think I can get past more than 30 hours with the same amount of on screen time. I have Stock rom stock kernal rooted with amplify and greenify and almost everything turned off, and it's so frustrating hearing so many people such as yourself talk about being about to for days without charging T.T

According some sources, this battery should fit our Galaxy S? Would love to find a shop located in EU to order from.

interesting. according to http://blog.sunpowtech.com/2011/09/05/samsung-hercules-sgh-t989-battery-eb625152va/ this is .5mm bigger than the stock battery. Whether that will cause any trouble with the back cover I'm not sure.. but I'm guessing it will fit without too much trouble.
Can you please share your sources which say it should fit???
1800 is 20% larger than the 1500 stock battery, so if you get around 3hrs display time (as I do with my battery - which i must add is quite old), then you'd get an extra 30 mins display time (and a lot more standby time).
This is a pretty decent increase unlike the 1650ma armani batt (only 10% increase).

I don't trust non branded or B brand batteries.
Just go for an Anker or Momax battery, good quality and about 3x as cheap.
Is there anybody that try the Samsung 1800 mAh battery in a Galaxy S?

I'm keen to know if this battery fits. But (I don't want to be a downer) aren't S2 batteries a different form from S1 batteries, so it's likely not to?

Theres a bunch of different variants of the S2. This is the epic S2 (from US carrier Sprint). Apparatntly the dimensions and some user posts indicate that it is likely to fit.
I think only the Epic 4G S2 uses the 1800mAh batteries. Went to a few samsung mobile phone stores and all of them are selling the 1650mAh battery (same one used on SGSL) If someone could get a link which sells the exact original samsung battery that would be great

Will do. Waiting for it now, I don't know if it's been shipped yet.
The moment of truth, the battery has arrived
It fits in the phone perfectly. Now to see if it turns on!!! Will update with results and pics shortly (Just charging my old battery to max first).

stop the suspense!!!!!
heheh. Well here it is. Working absolutely fine so far! . It came with 48% charge so I'm just charging it up now.
As we already know, it is ever so slightly thicker than the standard batt, but it still seems to fit fine with both my original and third party back cover. It is also slightly heavier than the original (enough to be noticable with your bare hands).
Here are some pics.. nothing exciting..

I am posting this for my good friend ecooce. His words below.
"So some of you may know I now have an Epic Touch, and I just want to say I will be creating for both soon if all goes well.
I just wanted to show off the new Mugen 1950mah battery (which also fits the original Epic, actually a pertect fit). This thing is everything it says it is and better if you ask me. The numbers dont lie, I use my phone all day. I work 3rd shift which is the absolute worst on ones personal life, I may sleep 3 hours at a time just to try and do things on a normal time, its hard to explain. Anyways, I used the phone all day and taxed it several times with games, a movie, and some youtube. Screen was at about 40% brightness, auto rotate, no auto brightness. The ROM is old and built on Caulkins 1.5. I plan on doing all updates to 2.3.6 and may release soon.

And a side note to the OG Epic owners, I really miss interacting with everyone, we had some fun times, and I dont think any other phone forum will be the same for me ever. We had some real high moments,and people, even SINN I miss, I have to say. Other phones may get leaks, and have inside info, but no one did it like we did. I just wanted to say I miss you guys "
Nice, but $44??
I can get 2 1800mah oem batteries at that price.
Where can I find an 1800 ?

I also question the capacity. These 3rd party battery vendors are known to fudge their numbers. While Mugen may be more honest than others, I don't think it's worth $44 to try it out. If the battery was really 1950 mAH, why aren't phone manufacturers using these instead of the smaller capacity ones?
You are aware that the 1500mah and the 1800mah batteries are the exact same size right? So the same could be said, why didnt the og epic come with an 1800mah battery?
Mugen has always equalled overpriced crap that's just as good as generic but more expensive then OEM lol
I have one also and I can say it is well wort it, and more so for an og epic owner, thats where this battery really shines.

They most certainly are not, the 1800Mah batteries are just a lil bit thicker. Fortunately for us, there is just enough clearance to put the battery cover back on. It's a tight fit, but it works.

I got a 3500 mah, for $17 shipped. arrived in two days.
the battery and back case is hard to tell hoe thick from the pictures, I'm guessing its 1/4" thicker than stock. no additional protection to the camera lens over stock, other than the shelf the extended case provides. it feels heavier, bit easier to hold than with the tiny stock battery case.
the mt4gs is nearing end of life for development, so ill use it until its damaged, then upgrade .
charged well, and then started it up yesterday morning around 6am. I'm now at 29%, with almost 31hours of use. yes, the graph is wrong, as I plugged it in to transfer 15-20 pictures to the Mac for however long that takes. that USB port is 1.1, so if you really want to figure how much juice it received, figure about 3 minutes plugged in....
the majority of time the phone had wifi and 3g/edge on, with poor reception.
this is virtuous v 1.3 and Gmail, contacts, calendar and g+ photos syncing running at 1.3ghz, "on demand" throttling.
again, currently I'm at 29% after 31hours.
A link of the battery, Back cover if any and a picture of the battery itself is a must if you want to share the info here with us.
Posting a screenshot of your phone's battery graph only and not even having the right values you stated won't be of any use for us.
So please if you want to share something please make it as detailed as possible in a way we could appreciate it

can't make the screenshot right, but my information corrected it. updated first post with screenshots and direct amazon link.
OK, I'm at 3%, after 35 hours , with no attempts at conserving at all. I've shot video, surfed, txt, all normal operations. with some simple conservation, I could squeeze 2 days easily. 3 would mean using airplane mode, or edge. this will be great for motocamping.
I would never be able to have a battery that thick for my phone, but cheers for the battery life

Jeje, is because this battery is stored to many stuff. I don´t have my dead S4, only the battery, so it´s abandoned...
From what I can gather there are NO genuine Samsung logo batteries available, they are ALL fakes. The counterfieters read webpages like this to ensure their fake is mistaken for original because that's where the market is.

Well look at the attached screenshots in this post.
Her OEM Samsung battery for S5 is dated 2019.03.28. That's not too old & perfectly usable.
I also have a third-party S5 battery but they are not as durable as the OEM & their max capacity declines faster after a few months of daily usage AFAIK.

You have to look at the company
If they cell premium grade a cells than your good to go
In fact I bought my battery for 20$ offering 500 cycles
And 12month warranty if the product hasn't reached your satisfaction
And btw that battery i bought for my s5 was manufactured in 2020 in January
It has the same rectangle protruding like the stock one
Here is my 3rd party battery 20$ from a good company with warranty incase the product didn't work how it was advertised

"Carrying a power bank all the time isn't incredibly convenient." With this phone ?! Really ?!
I can understand if you are in travel, but "all the time" ?!
I don't need it. I never have to charge this phone. But I'd still *want* it. ?
I get the want, I used to have the Samsung note 2 with an absurdly large upgrade battery with a humpback case and cover, like 4000 If I remember correctly unheard of back in the day. but it was so huge, I also have the mi max 3,, it could use a few 1000 more milliamps and be ok if it was a few cm thicker im for a bigger battery,, I had the zte zmax pro z981 that really needed a upgrade battery, never able to find one. I dreamed many a time about adding 2 batteries to it, and cutting a hole in the rear case to make it work.... ehh big screens big power consumption.,, use tmobile and get DIGITS and another MI MAX 3, both ring from the same number, but only one has 4g data, the digits is only 3 g data, (piss poor) but 4g phone calling. both will have wi fi, I used my zte zmax with the digits line, and used to bring both phones with me everywhere, as the mi max was a bit of a compermise on some items I was weaning myself off of the ZTE, till I started leaving it at my bedside for late night videos then just reset it and gave it to my son, finaly the MI Max 3 is my only phone, so I am with you on more battery ...
I've decided to purchase a Zerolemon Oneplus case with around 8000mah. I'm going to buy a cheap case off of Aliexpress after that and make one. If everything goes well, I may make a tutorial and post the photos.
This phone had a 5500mAh battery... It keeps even me, a diehard user, going for 2 to 3 days straight...
Why would any sane person need a power bank at this point?
I applaud you for the effort though.
You have some battery cases on aliexpress, but you dont need it, i get around 3-4 days with 14h or more screen on time, never less than 14
