My new Note 4 extended battery w/ DIY case - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

Frankly, I haven’t seen any reason to move on Note 5 so far so I’m gonna stay with Note 4. It’s hard to give up the option of swapping batteries. I bought an extended battery off MPJ recently and I believe this figure makes me feel that my phone is getting much more juice than before! The only drawback, to me, is the choices for extended battery cases are simply too insufficient, so I’ve tried to give it a new look.

Haha, I LOVE Finn& Jake!! I am also tend to select white cover, because drawing on white subject is easier. So far, everything I've seen looks promising. I stress my note 4 with pretty heavy usage, and now get 2~ days, before this battery I got a bit less than one day.

Nice work! I've read about the amazing battery life of this thing.
Like the dog character!

haha i like this case

I like it! How are you going to prevent the drawing from rubbing off?

hi op, i am coming back and wonder what are the tools you use?

Ordered one in SNES colors. Anything would be a step up from the unusable keyboard.
Yo! Thanks for the post(s) guys! I knew one was going to drop sooner or later but I wasn't following it that closely. Bought myself one in Xbox Colors, with an extra set of blue rubber buttons (The rubber buttons sound like a good idea, just wanted to get both so I can feel what i want more.) I don't mind 3.99 for extra buttons. Either way i hope that ***** shows up soon!

Just orderd mine too with SNES Colors, plus an extra set of all green just in case i want it all green.
Just kinda worried about trimming the rubber pads down if needed so that is another reason why i got the extra set of buttons just in case.
There's an opening on the game gripper that allows charging while mounted so that's awesome. Only thing is that its blocking the headphone jack...probably going to do some dremeling. Having a blast playing secret of mana with my friends via wifi
Anybody think it will fit with an extended battery pack? like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=260697275156

Yeah it does but on my testing there is no problems taking pictures at night which sometimes you do with cases the snug the camera too much so yeah
great concept although i would've much prefer that they somehow fix that hump so it doesn't make the phone look so thick. i'd be okay with an extra 500 - 1000mah in power to make the profile as slim as possible. great idea but execution could be better, especially for the asking price.
Btw guys until June 5th you can use this promo code to get $10 off

Great find, that is an even better coupon than the one I had. So far I have mixed feelings towards this case. Here are my thoughts:
Pros:
The case gives it a heaftier feel overall, more like the phones I am used to.
The bump on the side actually makes it easier to hold.
More protection against drops.
Obviously longer up time on the phone.
Both can charge at the same time.
The case feels nice to the touch.
Cons:
The phone doesn't slide into my pocket anymore and is a lint magnet.
I have to get a new arm band phone holder for bike riding, it is hard to fit in and the rubber really makes it tough.
I'm not super impressed with the battery life, I get a whole day now with heavy usage, but I was thinking it would at least give me two days of up time, not sure why they couldn't have at least the same MA as the main battery.
Overall I'm pleased with the purchase, this will definitely help me out when travelling. But it does take a nice slim phone and really makes it a big bulky phone. I may not use it all the time, but it will be good to carry around as a back up. It should work better for me in the winter when I carry it in a jacket pocket as opposed to pants/shorts.
Search Amazon for PowerGen portable charges. For less than $50 you can get two of the 2900mAh version, which fit nicely in your pocket, and only need to be attached to the phone when your battery is low, instead of always. This phone is to sexy for that PowerSkin monstrosity.

I have one too. So far so good, though I didn't use the screen protector that came with it.
Is there a docking cradle that works with this case? I bought the one recommended by Samsung (EDD-D200BEGSTD) but it doesn't fit at all. There's a ridge in front of the USB connector that pushes up against the keyboard. I don't think it would fit even with the case off...
you mind posting links to cases that fit well?
i didn't get a case for the new cell so far since i always had trouble with them falling off when sliding the keyboard in and out after a while or didn't really fitting at all.
but if there's one that you ppl could recommend... my new electronic toy could use a lil extra protection
Case/cover.
I'm trying to find that case in UK as from us it will be about £20 !
Does anyone know where to buy it in UK or any online site but cheaper.
If not I will go for it as need to protect my precious (still waiting to be delivered).
Can anybody post some photos of that case as even on google pictures they not show it cover fully unit.
Or maybe someone have any alternative?
Regards
Mac
UPDATE
I just bought SA-321
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...alpro-hard-shell-case-with-silicone-core.html
And even found discount code 20% less !
So I am happy now, no need to buy screen protector even.
Looks pretty good honestly, I may get one of those feather cases.
Here some pictures:

(If you want to buy one there, you may want to use the coupon code "inc20" - saves you 20%.) (expired)
Just ordered the SA-321 for my wife's Relay. Btw, the coupon code no longer is active.
I have just received an SA-321 case. It's of very good quality and I like the rubbery-but-not-too-much feeling of it. Compared to the SA-316, it covers the power and volume buttons. It makes the power button a lot easier to press and the slide-out mechanism feels somewhat more solid.
I like it a lot.
Agree. Though a bit pricey, my wife fell in love with it instantly. Great feel, good protection, and looks great too.:good:

The back says 4200mAh: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4800-mAh-...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item3cec204d9d
So probably will be far from even 4000mAh:

Not bad when you need it in pinch. I've used these cases before.
Never understood why the people who make these batteries do not like protecting the front face of the phone. Only one that does it is molphie
I got it today, it says 4800mAh on the back...
Mine came without any retail box...
I will test it now.
That pretty much alters the protective mechanism of the device against drops. Not only does it not protect the device, I would say its a pro-damage case too. It seems to increase the likelihood that you will damage it.

I am really interested to see how it tests out for you. I saw some on Amazon and was thinking of purchasing one. I use my Note 4 from 7am to 11pm, almost none stop. The battery does last me all day sometimes but having that extra juice would be nice. Can't wait to hear how it goes.
Any update on the power case?
Sorry for the delay.
The battery charger charges from 0 to full charge in about 3-4Hours...
It charges slowly, but it works.

Nice. I was looking at this case for while. I wanted a extended battery case that wasn't so big and this fits the bill.
Why turn your N4 into a heavy brick when you can just carry a spare battery?

Same question can be asked, why carry around two items in my pocket? Rather carry one. Mostly for laziness, just hit the switch and phone is charging. Besides, this isn't that bad compared to the ZeroLemon case., now that is huge.
I don't understand this attraction of humongous batteries. We live in the modern age, where industrial design and manufacturing elegance has come a long way. To take these very elegant and slim phones and duct tape gynormous batteries to the back seems counter intuitive to me.
How hard is it to charge your phone every day? I am sure keeping a car charger for the charge on the way back home isn't a huge inconvenience. Or keeping a qi pad at your desk at work and just tossing your phone on it when you get to work.
All you big battery guys are going to look like this

[Q] What you own and what you want.

I'm curious..
Simply, what accessories do you currently own, and which specific accessories do you desire?
I personally only own an aluminum placement battery cover.
I would like an extended battery case for that extra juice on my weekly snowboarding trips!
Zerolemon 10000mah
I just got zerolemon 10000mah for my Note 4. That i believe you should get for yourself. I also own a spigen case also.

How bulky is the zerlomeon case, and how long does it take to charge to 100% from dead?
Honestly it's not as bulky as I anticipated. The video tutorials call it a brick but u feel their is a slight chunk added to the original weight of the phone. Now if you compare that with the benefit you are getting I believe it's a small price to pay for. I have done a single charge till now of around 10+ hours which I was supposed to do it till 12. But the current status of my phone battery right now is that I have used it for 24 hours and it has just dropped till 64%. It's going pretty smooth I believe. Give it a shot.
It's pretty damn big and heavy, but I can use it fine on a daily basis. I recently took it off and put back the regular battery and back. Wow, it's so light and thin.
The battery thickness is actually about as thick as the phone if not a little thicker. So you'd be walking around with 2 Notes in your pocket size-wise.
The battery is hard to gauge though. I'd suggest getting GSAM or something that can monitor your battery voltage. It screws with the phone. I think my fast charger once said it was done but i checked the voltage and it wasn't done yet, so I plugged it back in another charger just to be safe.
I once compared my Z3C and Note 4 with the zerolemon in GSAM and they had the same voltage but I think the Z3C said 73% and the Note said 50 something. I don't remember, but I do remember I felt something was wrong with what I saw
I almost forgot about the buttons. They are so sensitive. I've accidentally locked the phone when viewing landscape so many times.
Edit to add picture if I can figure out how.
Note 4 inside the case, you can see the tabs to push the volume buttons actually sit higher than the phone.

What am I supposed to do from here?
Take a look at the Zero lemon thread here before you decide to purchase. Some issues reported with it not accurately showing the correct battery level, etc. Be sure to check out the Hyperion battery thread too and compare.
