3500mah battery now available

Hey guys,..well Ive got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery,thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789679
But just found out there also now a 3500mah battery available..so I couldnt help myself and gave it a go.Just bought yesterday so will take a week or so to arrive.
This one as with the other high capacity batteries also comes with a custom back cover..but instead of the all fat ones like the Cameron Sino one the top bit where the speaker and camera are is still slimmer..only the bulge where the battery is is fatter...personally I think that doesnt look as good as all fat cover (not as natural..looks more like an add on) but I guess with this way there's no black edges on the corner of photo's like some people are reporting with the all fat ones.
Anyway..there's a few sellers on ebay selling them but this is the cheapest I found:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/3500M-EXTEND...092212?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0b1d3df4
Ha ha...I see its now USD $13 posted..yesterday when I clicked by now it was only USD $10.99
For me about AUD $11.48..(since current exchange rate is great now the time for us Aussies to buy from the U.S )

I bought it on Ebay for 11 Euro.
Looks good for long trips

Damn,he's now dropped the price again.This time down to USD $10.15! Thats even cheaper than what I paid..come on guys...gotta try it for that price..

I have already got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery, but at 6.61GBP i thought i might as well order this one. Might well be a load of crap and might not even arrive, but its worth a go

Exactly.
I got the 3000mah Cameron Sino one too but had to try this one for that price.
Plus,dont forget,the back cover is a little different. Only the bottom section is fat,the top,where the camera and speaker are remains thinner so anyone who had complaints of the Cameron Sino all fat back cover making black edges around photos and the speaker a little muffled shouldnt complain here.
(Despite looking a little worse though I think)

Does anyone know how long this battery can hold a charge for?
would it be about 2.2xs longer?

Does anyone know a case that fits this? Preferably one that stays permanently on like those silicon ones?

What i don't get is that all of the extended batteries are so BIG..
Why not make a battery that is about 2 milimeter thicker and a case that only is bigger above the battery compartment..
In other words if you extend the 2/3 mm high hump on the regular cover about 1.5 inch on the SGS, you would have more room to put in a little bigger (2200mah) battery and you would still have a nice looking phone..

I would also like to know if theres any cases available for this size format. And its so weird how the capacity is ~2x more, but the size is 4x more lol.

My god, grrrr more batteries to buy! I'm starting to have way too many batteries. But its sooo cheap!!

Hmm.. A li-ion Polymore batter could be moulded to almost any shape and hold just a tad lower amps.. But they tend to be hell expensive compared to brick size li-ions that we rock. Iphones use li-ion polymore batts. But yeh, What i'm saying is taht we COULD get a decent size and shape but it would prob cost 2-3x more. I would love a batt thats say 2mm thick and cover whole back of the device which would maybe give it about 2500mah or more.

Gee,I see the prices have increased.When I bought mine you could get them for under USD$11 posted. As I did.

I have 3500mAh baterry now. It can joice my phone for a week, but it is kinda heavy and ugly, so I am using it only if I have to leave town for a weekend. It can survive even hard usage, playing games, and such. Took it from eBay.

I got mine delivered today. Charging as we speak. I ran across a site that exposes fake batteries and worry if this 3500mah battery is really just a big 2000mah battery now. Heres the site. What I noticed is that these ultra expensive Mugen batteries are so lowly rated. It seems that OEM batteries are best but they don't have a 3000mah battery! Hmmmmmmm

So this battery, after the mod, fits right into our G2's without having to use a different cover or anything?

I just took the red wrapper off of it and it fit snuggly

In terms of weight, does it change much? I'm thinking about picking up this battery if it's a drop-in replacement.

I just purchased, thanks.

Well, it's certainly cheap so might as well give it a try. I highly doubt it's even close to 1800mAh but hopefully it'll be more than 1300mAh and won't die after 50 cycles.

i wouldnt trust it since it from china, they been known to switch out label

Can you let us know what the battery life is like, compared to your normal battery, please? I am interested, but have heard too many tales of batteries that promise more but in fact deliver less. It would be great if this gave even 25% more over the standard battery!
Here's some independent testing that shows a lot of manufacturers claims aren't always that true:

thanks for the preview pic, on how to modify the battery. I purchased a battery for $5.98 USD! Cant wait to test it out.

Just curious but did you have your internet on the entire time you were doing the test run? I normally turn off my internet and activate it when needed, when I do that battery life for me is about 20 something hours, with mild usage (gaming and phone calling).

any more updates?

I just bought one. I will update you guys when i get it.

I ordered one. Wth for 8 bucks
From my permarooted overclocked HTC G2 with cyanogen 7 nightly via XDA app

I bought one from mugen site and it is awesome althought it is a little bit pricey but i think it worth. I charge it over night. Unplug it at 7 am and carry with me untill 10pm. My wireless was on the whole time. I have 3 email setup as default. Running sense ui so i believe there is some process running at the back ground. I only make about 30 min to 1 hour call. At 10 pm, i still have 35% life.

Well, too expensive

Just received mine. Removing the tab means it'll go into the space but it still won't fit quite right as the battery is slightly too thick for my cover to go back on.
I'll see if I can rectify this =/

Same problem here. If u take the red wrapper off i dont think it matters because the black plastic cheap outlined housing is the problem. I think i wasted 8 bucks
From my permarooted 1209mhz G2 with CM7 nightly 6

Yeah, I've taken the entire thing apart (piecemealed it together) now and while the cover will fit it still bulges out because the battery itself is a tad too thick.
It was a cheap experiment though so I'm not choked. The lesson here is that Incredible/Evo batteries don't fit our phones =(

HTC EVO 3D Battery Experience

Hey all,
Went to local third party sprint store asked if they sold any batteries, was told no. Waited until I ran into the manager who I'm cool with and asked again, he said "not really, we only carry batteries for the EVO 3d" I said sweet thats the one I want may I buy one? I figured maybe they weren't for sale sale but for tech purposes I don't know I don't really care he said he'd sell me one, and I made sure to pay in cash just in case he was tryin to get his hustle on which is fine with me, I paid $25 flat which seems pretty in line with what the genuine HTC battery costs shipped etc..
ROM: Android Revolution HD
Am sitting on 2% battery left right now, and android says it's been 18hrs 0ms 37 sec on battery: bear in mind where I travel I deal with a lot of edge to hspa transfers and it says "time without a signal" 37%. Also my phone is clocked at 1.5ghz.
Voice calls: 1hr 10min 26 sec
Display time on (texts, web surfing): 2h 16m 14 sec
Wifi use: 34 mins
Accounts:
facebook (every hour)
gmail
work exchange (push) (at least 10 emails with attachments a day, I set to download attach automatically)
school exchange (push)
weather (every hour)
I freely used the crap out of my phone today took off the charger at around 8am this morning, its 2:06am at night, its still alive.
Usually when I come in the door at like 9pm I'm scurrying to find a charger, but this bad boy outperforms the original battery BIG TIME, and I hope my scenario above (in terms of real numbers and stuff) helps those who are wondering about this battery.
PROS:
MUCH MUCH more battery life
CONS:
Instantly noticed the extra bit of weight to the phone (I enjoy it though, makes it feel more solid)
Takes longer to charge.
Any questions let me know, talk to your third party sprint stores (they are the only ones that do repairs and would probably have this battery on hand) and pay in CASH lol.

Do you notice if the phone runs warmer with this battery over stock?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk

In regards to the battery size:
Soon as I popped it in, there was no issue whatsoever snapping the back cover on, fits like a glove, no bulge or anything, device feels slightly more heavier however. You use the original battery door, does not come with a larger one.
In regards to the battery being warmer:
I've only seen it go to 96f watching netflix movie, right now sitting on my desk it says 80f, last night when it got a little colder, I can only assume that its VERY close to the unibody and with the metal cooled it was at 66f.
The reason why I chose to have the 1730mAh over the anker 1900 is because of the information that I've come across from this gentleman d0ugie and his website batteryboss.
You can clearly see as an example a genuine htc nexus one battery of 1400mAh tested in at 1357mAh actual capacity VERSUS a seidio nexus one 1600mAh battery testing in at 1305mAh actual capacity.
Through his testing you can CLEARLY see that genuine HTC batteries in terms of their actual ratings against their claims are nearly 90% accurate.
Why would you go buy a 1900mAh battery with crappy cells/manufacturing that ACTUALLY rates in at like 1730mAh or possibly LESS, who knows I don't have the equipment. But I don't buy off brand batteries anymore because of the information on that site.
Hope it helps you guys make the better choice. Cheers

very good, thx, i think i will buy the HTC EVO 3D Battery.

I am using Evo 3D battery now (order from Ebay), really better battery life... As for the temperature, same usage with Stock Sensation battery, i cannot notice any difference as it doesnt get too hot on my phone.

im running the same as you ARHD and evo3d battery. weight gain definitely. unfortunately for me the results differ from my experience. i dont see a notice in change. maybe because ive been on my phone for the majority of the time messing with my settings. who knows. ill report back if my battery stats begin to change.
---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 AM ----------
I'm going to buy the 1900 anker battery soon. Hopefully i will see an improvement.

also bought an original HTC Evo 3D battery. Notice a slight improvement in duration, but wonder if it was worth the 25 euro's. Advantage is that I now have two batteries and can exchange them if juice runs out.

MPJ 4300mAh extended battery mini review

Picked up this MPJ out off their website for $17.99 because I CANNOT find it on Amazon.
WHERE I BUY
A backup battery means a lot to me as my Galaxy S5 is running many apps, even though battery life on this phone is already an impressive part. Just received mine with a small bag, unwrapped and put it in. It seems a little larger than stock battery, ensuring a snug fit.
The 2800mAh to 4300mAh bump isn’t there for sure but there is still some increase. I’ll update soon after 2-3 times charging cycles.

After I fully charged it 3 times, it seemed to do great. This is my moderate to quite heavily day yesterday. With almost same usages (no auto brightness, average web browsing, bunch of streaming videos, texting, calling and etc.), stock downs to 20-30% by the time I went to bed and the new battery I'm at about 45%.
EDIT: Do not expect seeing any dramatic changes. Normally improving 10-15%, and there are several times, depending on my usages, where it up to 15%-20%.
6+ hrs on screen is my best by far and this is including 4-5 hrs of idle and light/moderate using, and only 1-2 hrs of heavy browsing, texting, etc. Have been also skeptical and hesitated about whether to pick up this without many reviews but on second thought, I can be the first and share my experience if that’s a real good. YMMV, I am not thinking about if they are spending money on promoting the well-knowness for their company, as far as I can tell, it is working fine on MY GS5.

Oh sweet, Thank you! =)

These batteries don't hold quite the charge the OEM batteries do, but it'll last a good 8 hours. I ordered a pair of these batteries and I'll see how long they last (Hyperion batteries have a good track record with my phones).

Nope, so I bought 3 of them. at 6 dollars a piece, and no shipping, even if i get one thats semi-decent it's better than no spare are all and I was making my way through a battery and a half per day on my S4.
*UPDATE*
4300 mHa Battery
I'm a very heavy user of my smartphone. When i had my Galaxy S4 i was going through a battery and a half per day. When i saw these batteries i thought i'd give them a try. I though 6 bucks, each, bought 3 of them for the hell of it. So in the old phrase of you get what you pay for is absolutely true in this case.
These batteries even say "Long Lasting High Capacity Li-ion battery" and are a 4300mAh battery, where the stock is 2800mAh. So in theory these batteries are 45% bigger than stock and should give me relatively 45% more time in operation of my smartphone on a single charge.
What it has given me is a great deal less. My S5 on the OEM battery would last from when i unplugged it at 6am to usually 5:30 or 6 at night before I hit the 30% alert. I just checked and my phone is currently 4H 50M 06S in and I am down to 38%. This battery as it sits is a complete waste of money.
Now as they were only 6 bucks each I did buy 3 so I will try the other two over the next couple days but if they are the same, then my suggestion is do not buy this product.

I just went with this one. Guess we'll see. I'll update a couple weeks after it gets here. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JIL7C5S/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Makes sense, yes After all, no matter how advanced the phone is: the more advanced, the more battery eats.

Hum... I don't know if this battery i sreally a 4300mah...
Someone test the battery recently ?

I'm using this "brand" ( well, these printed labels ) since the S1 series.
They may not be the full 3800Mah capacity, but they always give me a full day of operation ( depending on the use offcourse )
I'm not able to test the capacity-claims ( because I don't know how )
All I know is the length of operation.
On the S2 and Note1 the power was slightly smaller, my order is coming in a few days
Will report back

It is the same dimension so I assume 20%~ more.

I ordered this one the other day http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JB5OGWS/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 shipped out today shall see how it goes.

Question Who's Ordered, and why?

I have been watching the development of folding devices for a few years. I've decided to go for it, as the tech seems reliable this time. I like the idea of a more compact phone like the old Motorola V3.
Pre-ordered the 128GB Version in green.
What's your thoughts?

I will be, just deciding on the colour.
I had an original Z Flip and really liked it, but there were a couple of annoyances with it - namely the inside screens protector which got oily and grubby within seconds. I could have removed it, but there were concerns over voiding warranty at the time, and I didn't really want to chance it.
The external screen was also completely pointless, something else they have remedied this time round.
The only thing making me pause, is that I know I will want the Pixel 6 Pro when that launches, and the fact that Samsung haven't done anything to these cameras from the OG Flip.
Early photo samples seem 'ok', but I may wait for official reviews before fully committing.

Just preordered my wife the pink 256gb and myself the grey 256gb version.
We have S10s now that have been great but are ready to enter the flip phone arena. She is excited about using the camera from outside cover with the pic preview option as well as the flex mode for video calls.
I am excited about a compact phone to throw in my pocket and flex mode for video calls etc.
Kind of bummed out about the 3.5mm jack but just ordered some usb C to 3.5mm adapters on amazon should be good to go.

We have $100 credit each left via samsungs website....will probably get the clear ring case for my wife and maybe leather for me. Also interested to see what Spigen comes up with, I see on amazon you can already order their cases.

I've gone for a Naked skin from Slickwraps.

Thanks I will check that one out. I'll have 5 cases in before I even get the phone

Pretty crap they don’t include the case in the box like they did with the OG Fold.
I never really liked it, but it was handy when I was out and about and wanted that extra protection!

One that's compact yet powerful and is not "bar" type = Flip 3, so probably will get one.
With 120Hz display refresh rate and not so power efficient(!) SD888, the 3300 mAh battery might become a concern.

I have the green 256gb on pre order, looking foward to a flip phone again, fold 3 is to heavy.
Trading in a 8t, I'm sure the flip 3 will take better photos??

I am watching youtube vids on flip 3, some say camera concerns. We use sammy S10's right now for the past few years, flip 3 probably has drastically better camera then our S10?

Can't imagine Samsung would release a phone with subpar cameras. Obviously, not going to be the same standard as the S21 Ultra.
Good review below

ordered the cream 256GB. After using the note9 for 3 years I'm sick of large heavy phones.
I also really miss my starTac's from the 90's.
I would have bought the Flip2 5G but I need the IP rating as I do a lot of exercising/sweating with the phone.
My only concern is the wireless charging/NFC with a magentic mount such as scosche. I have wireless charging everywhere (car, bedroom, office, lounge, kitchen).. so battery life is not a concern.

Like the previous post, I've got tired of big heavy phones (currently Note10+) but also just looking forward to having something a bit different. Phones have got really samey and just not as much fun to own anymore. Hoping the flip 3 brings back the excitement of owning something a bit different, even if I will have to charge it every 5 min

my gf have the original flip, the first one. (hey, of course she want it, i'm the one that paid for it).
it' time to upgrade to flip3 since the more you fold/open/close the flip, the crease going to get worse.
i ordered the 256gb flip3 since it' the same price as the 128gb flip3 with the 50$ credits applied to 256gb flip3.

I got mine today works great, looking forward to root and ROMS!

Finally found the man who's responsible for companies making phones thinner and thinner before 2020, thus providing smaller and smaller batteries.

Pre-order grey 256GB and seem like next month only can get it here at Malaysia. I'm after the technology as Samsung said screen is 80% better than before. Camera seem not really superb but usable as daily use.

I have the green 256gb on pre order, looking foward to a flip phone again, fold 3 is to heavy.
Trading in a 8t, I'm sure the flip 3 will take better photos??

I'm doing the same. Got a OP8 5G through a tmobile promo half off so i only paid about $400 for it if I remember correctly. Now tmobile is giving me $1000 trade-in credit for it. The offer is just too good to pass up, even though I'm really going to miss my OP8

I think I must plead guilty, after years of giant phones I've genuinely had enough and am ready for a change
