Samsung Galaxy S4 Extended battery and Case

I have purchased the 7500 mah ZeroLemon extended battery for the Galaxy S4. It came with the standard case. I like the battery, however I do not like the case. I am wondering is there a case that I can get for this battery that is about the same size as an Otterbox but not bigger. Or is there any other similar battery that I can get that I can get a similar case. I have also heard of some people doing modifications to their otterbox, but I am not sure how it works. Can you all please give me suggestions? I am particular about the case because I am a female and very small and also have small hands. Thank you.

water resistant extended battery wtih NFC?

Does such a battery exist? I have been looking through several reviews of batteries and I don't see any that keep the water resistance. Not sure if this is a deal breaker for me or not.
Also in the past I have liked the Seidio set up since it seemed to be the only/best option for a protective case that fit an extended battery. It doesn't look like they have one for the S5 yet. anyone know if they are planning on introducing one?

Another option for a case to fit an extended battery is a TPU case for the Hyperion 6500 mAh battery. No water resistance however.

anyone have any luck with extended battery case?

I already have a ZeroLemon battery for my note 2. I don't want that much bulk for my s5. I wanted am extended battery case. Anyone have any luck with one?

Hi, my advise will be have look on something like this: http://www.handtec.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s5-extended-battery-kit-eb-eg900bbegww.html, genuine samsung extended battery kit, only not sure what case you can use on the top, once I get mine, I will try to fit in to newtrent rugged case - very compact but very well build case.

Thanks I didn't know there was an official extended battery for our phones. I'll check that one out.

Snowlizard are about to release their case for the S5. It has extended battery + absolute boss water and shockproofing.

[Q] What Larger Replacement Batteries Are Available?

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.

Is there a way to have extended battery WITH wireless charge?

Basically I'm aware that there are many Samsung Galaxy S5 extended batteries, and a couple ways to get it to charge wirelessly&retain NFC, but it's usually one or the other.
There is a MUGEN case with 5900 mah that is supposed to charge wirelessly, but it looks cheap and it has a lot of negative reviews, mostly due to poor case quality.
I'd rather buy one of the receivers, like S5 SlimPWRcard, but they also have a lot of negative reviews. Also, I don't know if it will work with one of the extended batteries.
I'm looking for a 3000-5000 mah battery that doesn't look ridiculous and has mostly positive feedback (hyperion maybe) and a way to make it charge wirelessly as I hate flapping the charging port cover. Probably a decent qi receiver that doesn't cause a bulge on the back.
Cheers.

i have the original extended battery from samsung.
i have installed SlimPWRcard and it works great to charge the extended battery.
caveat: you will need a bumper or a TPU shell, because the cover for the extended battery barely has enough space to accomodate the SlimPWRcard receiver.

Ive wondered the same thing.
But it seems all those 'sandwich' style Qi charging coils are just Not very reliable.
Theyre essentially hack jobs.
I prefer the original size battery and the genuine Samsung Qi charging cover.
Unfortunately, that Qi cover does make the phone extra thick and heavy.
Which in turn, means that buying a full phone case is nearly impossible.
Fortunately, theres 2 or 3 makers who make such niche phone cases.
Such as the "Diztronic Full Matte Black Flexible TPU Case Exclusively Compatible with Samsung Wireless Charging Cover for Galaxy S5" ..... available from Amazon.
