I want to get an extended battery for my charge, but the 3500mah extended battery is too physically large. is there any battery that will give me a battery life boost, but not double the thickness of the phone? thanks.

I found the highest capacity without double the size - 1800mah. I purchased 2 with a wall charger. You just carry one with you and swap out when needed.
For both batteries and wall charger with USB charger build in (dual charger) only cost me 22$ on ebay. They're working fine with my charge. I suggest instead of killing yourself try to squeeze the life out of your current battery, just carry an extra one. I found the double size is too bulky to carry and noticeable heavier.
thats only 200mah more than the one that's in there already... how much more battery life will that give?
You aren't going to find anything better than that. You can only fit so many mAh in a battery package before you reach a critical/dangerous level, and after that, you have to make the size of the battery bigger. Aftermarket batteries work with two sizes, stock size, and extended battery size, as they usually don't make their own extended battery covers and just use the stock extended battery cover.

about 1hrs. See my above thread. Best bet is just carry an extra 1800mah battery. Don't buy bulky 3500mah. It's heavier and bulky. I bought them and now I'm not using them any more.
i have installed a 7800mah ANKER battery in my i9500, but when i put it on charge DU BATTERY still shows the battery as 2600mah?
The phone will also show the normal stats. i want the phone to display battery usage as per the new battery.i get about 3days out of it with normal usage so it is well better than the old battery.
How do i get my phone 'pick up' the bigger battery?
thank you
needed a battery for my TMO GS5 and was tired of getting junk off ebay so my buddy sent me link to this battery and im so happy he did. battery arrived on time and packaging was good and i discharged battery to 2% and recharged it to 100% without putting a load on it using a cradle charger then i was able to test it against my stock samsung OEM battery and i was surprised to see better stats by about 6% longer life. sure the tests are not 100% accurate but my use was done in a extra GS5 i own so the testing was very close and for only $16.99 its worth it even without the better stats. if your looking for a OEM (stock) replacement battery this is for you or if your just looking for a extra battery to keep in pocket ect. this is perfect.

Hi!
Has anyone tried bigger batteries for Express 2 (SM-G3815)? I am considering to buy Mugen 2300mAh battery since it should fit in with original backcover. So it doesn't make your phone any thicker. Mugen battery gives almost 10% more capacity so I think it should also make battery life 10% better. Anyone tried Mugen 2300mAh battery or other for Express 2?
I not tryed this battery or a higher one, but 10% more i donth think is so big diel.
BTW android 5.1 with cyannogenmod 12.1 drain the battery faster than android 4.4 original stock.
i planning to buy 6500mAh Extended Battery + Black Cover Case for SamSung Galaxy S5, anyone use this type of battery. is it worth.
seriously ??? this type standart batery just 2800mah..
If you don't mind the added bulk (it is huge), it will add another day or two of average use to your phone before needing a recharge. Just don't expect to be able to fully charge it from dead in an hour.
