3000 mah battery

http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Innoce..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1326161817&sr=1-1
Here is the link, it says "vibrant" but it will work with sgs4g. Unfortunately, you have to make your phone fatter.

Hi Airfluip
Have you tried it?
I heard ppl say it does not last much more than the original bat.
Sent from me

no, i just found it. Don't have money to buy things, specially batteries.(I am 14) also, my battery lasts through a few days of use.

Mine lasts 1 day...
Tried out many ROMs and tweaks, guess I'm a very heavy user...
Sent from me

Not really fond of making the phone thicker. Better just to buy 2x 1800mAh (or 1500mAh) batteries and swap as needed.

I'm getting one of these soon, I will post my results whenever I can

thank you.

It's eta'd to be here around the 2nd, so it will be a bit

Update: i got the battery today, I'm letting it charge. right now I'm using my horrible flip-phone that i obtained when being on monthly 4g. i will get back with the results after the first full discharge

here is another one for cheaper: http://www.ecrater.com/p/12744868/extended-battery-with-cover-for-samsung-galaxy-s#

you get what you paid for. honestly, I wouldn't trust one of those.
As for the Seidio, last night it lasted me 10+ hours with heavy usage(constant music, gaming) and it was at 39 percent or so when I plugged it in.
Today, i have had it unplugged for four hours, listening to music around the same amount and it is at 90 percent so it's a major plus
before 10 percent would last me maybe 30 minutes max if i'm constantly listening to music, and this is only my second cycle. waiting until it's completely broken in
I will post a full report once I actually kill the thing lol

That seller has terrible feedback. I would rather go with amazon.

So this is what my battery looks like after two days of usage. With music playing, downloads happening, standby standing by calls being taken, etc etc. So I guess this battery really does this phone some good as I never have been able to squeeze this much juice out of my phone. Oh did I mention I was playing games hours at a time.
I recommend this product a lot, but I don't necessarily deem it an absolute need, but close to it, especially for excessive use
I was going it let it drain, but I think I'm going to throw it on the charger now, as the major drawbacks are a longer charge time, and thr size....which once you're used to it isn't as bad as it seems, I actually like the extra weight, and the way it feels.
Anyways if you're willing to shell around 60 bucks out for more juice(a lot more) then I highly recommend it

Very interested in the biggest capacity battery I can get for around ~40-60 bucks.
I just got my phone four days ago, only just now let it go through a complete drain cycle.
But I was doing homework today and it didn't even make it through a full day of classes for me (From 7am to 4pm). Mostly just listening to music, calculator, a new text every twenty or so minutes, quick google shots during English classes.
Really disappointed by that. But if an extended battery will fix it (Also going to pick up a portable power pack if I can), I have to ask ... does this phone only draw 500 mA maximum when charging? I use the Apple USB charger because it's output is 1 Amp, the Samsung charger is 750 mA. Don't see a difference really - they both take a REALLY long time to charge.

....................

..................

I'll take it, then.
Thanks a bunch for the tests.

Do you have this battery yourself, and if yes, what can you say about it?

[Q] Question about my battery consumption.

Hello there everyone.
I used to have a blackberry phone in the past and my battery life sucked.
I've been out of work recently and I noticed that I charge my phone quite often daily. I've had this phone for about 4 months now. In the past, since I'm either in the office or trying to catch some sleep, I get by with one charge a day. But now I can barely last 5 hours with a charge. Granted that I seem to be holding my phone always and always doing something with it every time that I'm awake.
Let's just segue a bit with my Blackberry experience since this might be affecting my mentality a bit.
I used to have a bb 9630 and that phone literally won't last through a work day without me plunging it in my office computer mid work day.
So now we come back to my Xperia Pro.
This is a screen shot that I took just now.

I have been on YouTube for at least 3 hours straight before I took this.
Is this normal consumption? I mean, does watching videos on YouTube for 3 hours drains your battery that drastically?
I really have a bad sense of estimating things so I really can't tell if that's normal or not.
Although when I unplugged my phone and didn't use it for 55 minutes, my battery still went down like 3-4 percent.

Many times the manufacturer will provide a crappy battery because they are cheap. One easy fix to a battery drain issue is upgrade the battery. MAh's (milliamp hours) are what you look for with a battery upgrade. Most batteries will specify the mAh value (common figures are 1200mAh, 1350mAh, 1500mAh etc) but basically the higher the mAh value, the longer the battery should last between charges.
Online auction sites and stores are an easy way to obtain one. I upgraded this phone battery from the stock battery, got one with 350 more mAh and the device will now last 2-3 hours longer with the same software.
Press Thanks if this helped!

I'm kinda a bit hesitant with using a non-manufacturer battery. And it is really hard to get a hold of in our country. Most of those auction sites won't ship internally.
I guess what I just want to know is if my usage reflects my battery consumption without any anomaly.
And another question, is that media server thing caused by youtube or was it because I have a live wallpaper activated?
Sent from my MK16i using Tapatalk 2

Well the live wallpaper doesn't help battery life either, but you probably have your screen too bright, and watching youtube videos means you probably have the screen on 100% of the time, takes a crapload of power as well. I would definitely find out what the media server is though.

Hello,
when youre watching Youtube Videos on your Smartphone,
your battery drains very fast.

3-4 hours of screen on time is normal for the Samsung Galaxy S3 - obviously, a different device - but it doesn't exactly sound like a shocking figure to me that you're at 44% after 3 hours of YouTube. The fact that you have so much battery left AFTER watching video for 3 hours straight is very good and wouldn't call that drastic at all. I would call that good battery life.
3-4% an hour when not in use is probably due to having lots of apps constantly waking the device or having them use GPS, et cetera. You can use something like BetterBatteryStats to determine what's doing it if you're not sure.

Thanks for all the reply. I'll follow your advice and see what happens.

[Mbuynow] Samsung Galaxy S4 6400mAh Battery - Review.

So i've recently been after a bigger battery for my phone and decided to give the "Mbuynow 6400mAh S4 Battery" a go. The battery cost me £6.25 with free 1st class Royal Mail postage straight from the store itself. I will include a link below if you're interested in buying this.

The battery is approx. the size of two standard S4 batteries and weighs around the same. The battery has a nice, matte finish and feels quite sturdy too.
Upon inserting the battery into my S4 I noticed I had around 60% in there already and I instantly put it on charge. I left it to 100% and gave around 3 - 4 hours extra to charge to full capacity. Upon removing the battery seemed to drain quite rapid. Looking at my stats didn't show anything out of the ordinary and thus went along with it. Did a complete drain and charged back up, again battery rapidly drained. After reading the packaging that 5 or more cycles would be needed I carried on using the phone, charging once dead. I'm probably on my 3rd cycle now and did a factory reset to eliminate battery draining apps.
Enough of that, you're probably thinking "WHERE ARE THE STATS". Well I've managed to get my most upto date reading, and my best, which is 20hrs and still with 74% in there. I suppose I just need to give it time or the fact it's a defective battery. I've e-mailed them and they have agreed to send me a replacement so hopefully this will be better. I will give an update on what is to come. This is with partial use, not much. I left it on over night with the sound on mute and screen brightness on full and hardly used throughout the day.
Conclusion
This is something I can't really conclude until testing the replacement battery. Battery seems good but I don't think you're getting as advertised and it's more likely going to be a 4500/5000mAh battery. I mean for £6.25 I suppose what can you expect. Personally, I don't think it's been worth it for the £6 but in my point of view I could have received a defective unit. But for £6, it's a nice spare battery you can take along for rides and might give you a bit more juice compared to the standard 2600mAh. Providing the replacement is better then I maybe able to say it's worth it but £6 for a battery isn't bad at all. Personally, spend your money elsewhere and go for a proper ZeroLemon, Anker or Hyperion battery.

Overwhelming Battery Life!!

So, looking at the title you would know this is about my Phone's amazing Battery Life.
But NO, it's not my S6, but my Mom's Phone that has put my S6 and every other phone in my household to shame. My mom spends most of her time on youtube, streaming old songs and watching old music videos. She got this phone after my brother used it for 3 years, which I gave him after using it myself for 2 years. It's safe to say that my Mom's phone is now 5 YEARS OLD!!. I often heard my mom bragging about her phone's battery when I walk around with a Powerbank in my Pocket. So I told her not to plug-in her phone for the next 12 hours.and use it as usual. 15 minutes back, she asked me to plug her phone. That's when I remembered what I told her and I realized it's been more than 2 DAYS!!. I just took a few screenshots that speak for themselves. I wonder how long the phone would last if I turn ON the CPU Power Saving Mode. I must say, I am overwhelmed & shocked.

You're right, the screenshots do speak for themselves: they show that it's hardly ever used.
They also show high power loss whenever WiFi is actually on, and a steady decline when it's sleeping.
It seems to have been used like... what, 10% of the total time? Less? With that same usage, an S6 would last much longer.

Lolz...anytime I see her, she's on youtube and I am certain those 5 hours were spent well on youtube. S6 cannot and will never stand a chance when similarly used. You can watch youtube for 5 hours straight on a 5Ghz Wifi, but then your battery will NEVER LAST more than 12-14 hours. I know that hurts but lets embrace the fact! May be you can shed some light on how to make our battery last longer?

I still use my S6 and sad as I want to admit it, the batter is not as great. I don't use much of it for Youtube, but I have about more than an hour of video filming of it for a fully charged phone.

[REVIEW] ZeroLemon Samsung Note 9 5000MAH Slim Juicer Battery Case

Hello Everyone,
Since Zerolemon came out with the 7500 mAh V30 battery case, I've been a believer in...second chances, and new products are my thing. So, I bought a Note 9 512 Gb for the business, and decided to try this sample battery out.
As it turns out, this battery is good. It executes 1.25 charges on average, but I could never really ring out every last drop. The stats speak for themselves.
Day one:
I was on my phone's battery for just short of 15 hours, and 54 minutes on the first day of reviewing, and I admit, I only listen to music and check my servers from this phone. SSH, maybe a little VNC, and mostly Tidal. There's the first 44% down.
Day two:
Just to make it even, I thought another 44% should do for usage, and practically do the exact same thing going to the client, and check the servers, maybe change the playlist, but not much else changed with my usage other than the time screen on. This took a little longer. 23 hours and 41 minutes.
Day three:
Hectic day at the office, and now the poor girl gets her 85% down from just rocking her world. Almost identical, but now it's cumulative in a sense.
In sum:
Bogging down the battery in spurts made the Note 9 last longer, but total gain was three hours by doing it that way. Main drain was continuous, and that lasts much less time. Draining the Note 9, and the battery case, then my Note 9 again took about 75 hours and 15 minutes, give or take.

The verdict:
This thing saves your ass in a long trip, like a Greyhound from Phoenix to say, Seattle, but who's taking the hound anymore, besides me?
This would be righteous if you were out in the wilderness, too, and you didn't want to use the power saver feature which would extend the life quite a bit more. I'm shooting for the power user, not the camping type, but I will test using those parameters if someone wants me to. Just holler back.
I mean, who's to say that we couldn't squeeze out about 300 hours in that mode? I get power outages here in Phoenix every time it rains hard. I don't like when I'm not entertained in the dark.
Zerolemon, you guys put out a pretty awesome case.
I wanna try this 10,000 mAh battery next.

Thank you for the sharing! We'd be appreciated for any concern you have on this battery in future.
