I looked all over eBay and all I see are cases for the international HOX and I really want to be able to have one that works for our phone. I remember mugen mentioning that they would have one out already, but they said that over a month ago. Are companies not making it because HTC's sales in the recent quarter was extremely low compared to the projected numbers? If anybody has found one please let me know I love everything about this phone but I hate lugging around a charger, and I don't always have access or the time to plug it in.
PS I don't want to hear anybody come in and say they get 4 hours of screen time blah blah blah on whatever mods they do. That's great, but 4 hours of screen time equals about 6 hours of total usage which is only half the day for me. I'm a college student and I do a lot on my phone whether it be in class taking notes, or on conference calls.
And I'm not complaining about the phone, just lack of this particular accessory. I believe this is a damn near perfect phone I just want the juice to make it even more perfect!
There's no battery cases that are either good or work for the S4 variant as the pins are placed differently.
There are however external battery packs that are relatively small and provide a punch. Had one for the Sammy Vibrant and was super easy to hide in back pack, as you are a college student.

Yeah, I ordered one of these in preparation for Comic Con:
http://www.amazon.com/10000mAh-External-Battery-Sensation-Motorola/dp/B005NGKR54
Pretty happy with it so far, and the price is definitely right.

how many charges for your phone can you get off it? I'm curious if you've tested that yet

+1 I want something that can at least double my battery life. That would be great.
EDIT: they reviews on this look solid! I would like to know how many full charges it would do on our phones.

Haven't fully tested, but judging by the MaH, I would expect to be able to charge it two or three times over at least.
Actually judging by the mah I'd say it would charge it around 4 times.
10,000/1,800 is a little more than 5 so its safe to assume 4 times over.

These external chargers actually lose quite a bit of power in translation... I think I remember reading it's a 35% loss but don't remember exactly, so that 10000 mah is really more like 6500 for the phone (somewhere along those lines, anyways).

I really hope a better looking one comes out the options are either cheap looking or incompatible from the moved pins
Hey one and all,
Now I know there are already a few threads with some external battery chargers but a few are quite outdated and it's quite a pain looking through them all so I've been a little lazy and started this new thread.
Basically im currently using the ZeroLemon 7500 extended battery, which with my heavy usage lasts 2 days which is fine by me. I am now starting to get bored with my mini brick and would like to downsize to a 3000mAh battery so as to be able to use stock sized cases, but invest in a high capacity external battery charger. Something in the range of 12000mAh or thereabouts.
Ive searched amazon and google and seen countless brands and sizes and some with extra functions like wifi file transfer / wifi hotspot / sdcard reader etc. My main interest is for the charging, optional extras are just a bonus. Ive had my fair share of fakes from china / hong kong which although super cheap do tend to lack staying power.
I want something that will keep its charge, that has a high capacity to enable me to charge a 3000mAh battery 3-4 or more times and that i can charge fully overnight between 12-16 hours.
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated, I dont want speculation on products that are out there as i have searched loads and read reviews on what i can. I would just like to hear from people who have similar wants and needs to myself that have used certain products and can give any recommendations.
Muchos Gracias in advance :good:

There are no higher capacity stock sized batteries, its usually fake or over rated. If it exists, Samsung should have produced it already. Better get a power bank to extend your usage.

That's pretty good. Only need it to give a few charges anyway. Does it hold charge properly too? So say if you didn't use it for a week and then used it to charge your phone, does it still have the same charge left on it?

You mistitled the thread. It's external battery pack, power pack, etc. Not charger. Battery packs do charge the phone but "external battery charger" mostly refers to those wall-chargers on which you put the battery to charge directly out of the phone.

Again ... I appreciate your input and willingness to make a point however if you had read what the guy put, regardless of my thread title, he was talking about extended stock size batteries, whereas the title is still pretty accurate for what I want .... An "external" pack to "charge" the "battery". And secondly the title I feel is pretty relevant, but even if it wasn't all you need to do is read my post to understand exactly what i wanted.
Please don't feel the need to take time out of your day to say I did something wrong when in fact you have done exactly the same as the first guy and countless other people by just not reading.
Thank you.
P.s. external battery charger as a description does not restrict itself to just wall chargers at all. External could be referring to a battery charger that can be taken outside its usual confines of somewhere like a house or building and used externally / outside where there is no access to a socket.
Thanks again.

I have a 10000 mAh EasyAcc. Purchased from Amazon, 28 euros.
It is quite slim (similar size as S4, double the thickness) and not very heavy.
I have already used it a couple of times and I am very happy with it. I can charge 2 phones at once, and the charging seems similar like from a normal power cord (got from 10 to 50 in about 30mins).

To be honest, power bank is pretty handy at times but please note that it takes time to charge your phone thus you need to carry your phone with the powerbank on the move which will be even heavier than your zerolemon battery alone. :good:
I've been using the PowerGen 9000mAh since August last year. It is a good size to carry in your pocket.
It has dual USB outputs plus an attached Micro USB cable that shares the 2 amp output. I like the dual output because I can charge it fast with a 2 amp port that will charge my phone a good 60% in an hour or so, or leave it on the .6 amp port over night and only have the battery pack drop 25%, or charge 2 or even 3 devices at the same time. I really like that it has an attached cable.
I can get a good 3 full charges of my S4 from it.
I mainly use it when traveling. If I am not going to be using it for a while, I discharge it to about 50% and it will stay there for months at a time. This is good practice for any LiPo battery not being used. They basically last forever at that charge level.
I also carry a spare OEM battery with me all the time, which is why I don't carry the battery pack often.

Ah, sorry about that. I was thinking about the internal battery.
Anyways, I'm using a Yoobao 7800MAh Power Bank. Its quite well known in the Asia region (like in the PH), can charge my S4 2-3 times, and quite handy (not that heavy).
I'm looking to purchase an external battery pack that's compatible with Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 spec (Samsung's adaptive quick charge).
The only one that's listed on Qualcomm's site is the mp5200q that's not listed as for sale anywhere I was able to find(besides alibaba for orders >1000 quantity). Has anyone found a compatible device?
Thanks
I'm also interested in the answer to this question.

I really doubt it. Qualcomm's technology seems to pretty new. An external battery like that probably won't come out for like a year or more.
Most likely not, Samsung's adaptive charger charges up to 9V DC. All external battery packs are made for the USB standard 5V DC output.
Wouldn't any normal external battery still work for you? Like a power bank of sorts?
I was able to obtain a small quantity of the MP5200Q directly from the manufacturer. I am keeping a couple and selling the rest for what it cost me plus fees etc.

Well, I would think it's pretty self explanatory, considering it's just an extra battery and all... but here is the exact thing that I got:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB-KN915BWUSTA
I used the 50% coupon that you get when you register the phone to get it.
it "charges" the phone exactly once, since you're swapping out the battery, and it takes how ever much time it takes you to swap out the battery to bring it to 100%. It's about 1 minute for me.
buy another spare battery if you want to "charge" it twice. It comes with an extra plastic battery holder, so you can carry 2 batteries with you. It'll probably still be smaller than a external battery pack.

Yeah, I have a couple of power banks but I only use them for my Nexus 7. I use a second battery for my Note 4 when it needs more juice - a lot easier than tethering to a power bank. The power bank can be used with the Samsung external battery charger if need be - swap out the phone battery and recharge the first one in the charger with a power bank if AC is not available.
Wonder if this New Samsung Power Bank will have a Fast charge

So for the s7 edge I opted to get the mophie battery case because neither was water resistant and the mophie charged faster and gave more protection. With the Note 7 the mophie one isnt out yet, but the samsung one does have water resistance now. With 3100 mah i think itll be enough to get some good screen on time. It does come halfway charged so i recommend charging it before use. It works as simple as putting it on and turning it on.
I purchased this on amazon with prime shipping because the samsung website is so backed up they couldnt even give me a date when they might send it.
First up is the packaging. Its nothing special just the normal samsung packaging we've grown accustomed to.
Package contents
How it looks installed
Side comparison view
Bottom view (doesnt cover usb type c port)
Overall this will do its job but dont expect very much protection as the front is totally exposed. The charging is very slow. It does make the phone both heavier and thicker as is to be expected and makes 1 handed use harder but its a phablet so who cares. I do reccomend this case, but it is a tad expensive. On the other hand though you have to pay to play. Let me know what ya'll think. Will you get one?

Sorry for some of the pics looking bad, i think photobucket messed em up. Shots taken on z force
Congrats man... Can you please let us know how does the battery lasts? From what i i know it does say battery is 3100mAh but on the back its also written that usable is a lot less than 3100. Anyhow let us know how much total time you could get without plugging it back in.
Also can you confirm does the backpack charges wirelessly or no.
From what I read this only outputs at 1.0a which is gonna be reaaaally slow compared to the standard 2.0a or fast charge. Does it show any specs on the box anywhere?
The backpack itself does not charge wirelessly, only charges the phone wirelessly.

About 3 hrs to full from 16 percent.. idk if it would even make it to full if you are using it but there you go.

Yeah at one point I was just cruising Facebook and I kept getting notifications about the device charging too slow. And this was while on wifi with the display at about 50%
Alright, so update. The charger doesnt charge fast we all get that. But it does work well enough that i started today at 500am and it is now 624pm with what i would consider pretty heavy usage. Probably a good 5 hrs screen on time and my phone is at 61 percent with the charger totally depleted, i started the charger at about 80 percent battery. I didnt browse the internet too much i was playing a game called dokkan battles pretty much the whole time with screen at about 25 percent brightness because the room i work in is dark. Just some figures for you guys i will keep updating as info is necessary.
As far as the power bricks go they are nice. And significantly faster, but i like not having to carry them around or plug them in, just one button and im charging.
I think for less than half the price with more capacity and 1.8a output, I would rather have this. It isn't waterproof and no access to spen though.

That could be legit
the samsung backpack charges the phone from 0 to roughly 40% - just tested it with my completely drained note 7 - charging....did not use while charging......turned phone on - battery level was 41% on the phone for about 30 seconds, then dropped to 40%.....
backpack was completely drained at the end of this.
i agree with the OP that it is MUCH easier to have this on the back of the phone rather than lugging around a power bank and cord. however, the backpack battery case is really expensive given the mAH it provides.....
i bought two of them b/c i'm on the phone all day talking to clients from my car.....my two cents is that the cost is worth the convenience, but most others will likely disagree......
cheers.

Cords.....hate having to plug snd unplug. Also in in and out of my car all day. This way I have one backpack on my phone while the other one is connected to my fast charger in my car....
My Samsung backpack charger took the phone from 20% to full with 1 dot left. I changed wireless charging settings to slow charge only. Used it a few times while charging for light stuff. Gets a little warm while charging. I'm pretty happy with it. No cables and has pass through charging if you need it. Makes it twice as heavy though. I recommend it.

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Google Pixel 2 XL can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Charging speed is fine and fast.

I'm finding it slow despite the fact it displays fast charging while using official cable and charger. My Note 8 is so much faster.
Mine 2 XL was really slow,It took 2h to charge from 30% to 100%.
A Youtuber points out the same issue, he got 2h 30m to charge 2 XL from 0% to 100%.
According to what I have seen from YouTube reviewers, charging speed is ridiculous (not in a good way). How can I possibly leave my Oneplus 5 dash charge for this?? Sigh.
For me it charges quite quickly up to 95%, but the last 5% are a drag. And I'm using the cable and charger that came with the phone.
My OG XL charged much quicker!
Wow, the bad news is just piling on. I might have to cancel my pre-order.
please calm down a bit. Charging slow the last part after 80% or so is not bad but very good because it saves your battery. There is nothing to prevent this so if OP5 charges the last part faster the battery will wear out faster.

Yes, they are supposed to throttle the charging after it hits a certain percentage (sounds like 80 in this case) but once it gets high enough the high amps can damage the battery, possibly overcharge it etc. 2.5 hours from 0%-100% doesn't sound terrible to me but maybe I'm not as picky as most....
Did anyone try charging the phone with a Quick Charge 3.0 compatible charger to see if there's any difference?
Mine charges between 2500-2800 mAh before the threshold with the screen off, around 1000 mAh with the screen on.
When charging at home, it takes 2hrs from 20%-100%. I just started charging it at work, and it shot up from 20%-85% in 15 mins. Now it's charging slowly going to 100%.
What kind of mA are y'all getting? Seems around 2000 at best which is pretty underwhelming. Half that with screen on...
This is with the out of box charger.
I want the good camera but man does op5 do so many things better than this at half the price. ?

I feel the same way. OP5T could potentially be better in most segments except for the camera which obviously is the best thing about the Pixel 2.
Asking again, did someone try to charge the phone with a Quick Charge 3.0 compatible charger to see if there's any difference?

Dont have my Pixel 2 xl yet but I'm also thinking about getting OP5t instead.
Better Display, better charging time, overclocked processor, less bezels all in all less issues .. :/ Not sure anymore.

Yep. Not sure anymore is exactly where I'm at unfortunately.
At this point, I've decided to just wait until December-January to see if anything changes with the quality of the screens/issues with the Pixel 2XL, if it gets better - I'll definitely get it, if not? See what the reviews for the 5T say and get it instead if they'll be positive.
I really, really wanted the new Pixels to be a smash hit and was ready to place my pre-order right away, but I'll let time to its thing for now since there's WAY TOO much negative surrounding the 2XL and for a good reason I guess.
you are paying the premium for camera these days. op5 pretty much does everything else better imo even with jelly scrolling.
Just plugged my phone in now. 74% and it says 52 minutes until charged. :-/

That's straight up slow charging. Poor performance.

You mean to say that although the chip is compat with QC 3 there is no QC 3 charger included with the phone ?
