I'm seeing a bunch of Nexus one OEM batteries on Ebay going for between $12 and $30. The lower end of the price range are setting off my To-Good-To-Be-True sensors. Is there a counterfeiting issue with these batteries?
Nope. It works but it is definitely not as good as the original battery. I bought the package (battery and battery charger). Both works but charger takes pretty long to fully charge a battery (about 5 hours) and the battery does not last that long. I would say around 12 hours with decent usage.
But I got it just as a backup so its not bad at all for the price.
every single extended battery i've purchased has been exactly what was stated in auction.
my 2400Mah batteries for the g1's were as promised.
my current 2600Mah batteries for the N1 are as promised. syncing 4 email accounts, 3G(hspa), HD video recording, flash camera shots, and 2-3 hours surfing with flash = a solid day to possible day + 1/2.
as far as the normal capacity batteries, i really don't see the point in buying them. 4 hours and then a charge ? no good.
asthetics maybe ?

Exactly my personal experience too.
Just bought one from this person - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330476620397&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Will let you know how it goes
Free battery from HTC
Just call HTC they will send you a free replacement during your warranty period.
I went with an ebay seller, got a battery that only has about 60% capacity of the original. I then emailed the seller, and he refunded my money. I now have a free backup battery in case I ever need it for an emergency.

sorry, it's been a while since i bought those nexus batteries, and almost a year since the G1 batteries. given the time frame, the ebay history is gone, or i haven't found it yet anyway.
Anyone use these or had any experience with them? Are they really 1800mah? I've had mixed results in the past on various devices using generic(mugen included) extended life batteries...
Samsung MM-A700 - Battery worked great for a few months then one day the phone would just bootloop. Put stock battery in and no more problems...
Sanyo SCP-8100 - No problems
Sanyo SCP-8200 - No problems
Sanyo SCP-5300 - Standard generic battery no problems
LG Env - Awesome extended life no problems ever.
LG Env Touch - No problems ever
Audiovox PPC6600 - No problems ever
Audiovox PPC6700 - No problems ever
HTC Evo 4g - No problems
HTC HD2 - Tried multiple brands and generics...all lies, all garbage..including the one that came with the extended back cover with built in kickstand
HTC G2 - No problems
MyTouch 4G - No problems
Any info would be great as I just ordered one of those packages including 3 "1800mah" batteries plus the rapid wall charger.... I figure worse comes to worse they are just all standard life batteries so it's still a bonus over having just one battery. Thanks.

Buyer beware.
Sent from a message in a bottle.
Just bought and used an 1800mAh battery from ebay.
Says on the battery that it's meant for the Sensation and Evo 3D, which is fine. But the battery life is pretty terrible.
My Setup: Brightness full, wifi on 24/7, mobile data off. Profile is set to 192MHz when display is off and 1188MHz Conservative when screen is on. Running on 2G all the time and the screen is on for about an hour before the battery is completely gone. Fancy widget is pulling in weather and location every 15 mins via GPS and wifi. Pulse reader refreshes every hour on wifi.This is HALF the life that my G2 gave on stock battery with same setup. Overall battery lasted for 8-10 hours before complete dead. And my setup isn't even that power intensive.
I don't recommend buying those cheap eBay generic batteries. You get what you pay for. Go with the anker, like everyone else is saying
An Anker battery is like $10, why would you bother with an eBay battery?

Sorry, that's too expensive for me. Was hoping the eBay battery could give me decent battery life on the cheap, but it did not. Far worse than the stock battery. At least the stock battery will get me through the day

I have a spare anker battery that came in my 2 pack i hate having to keep switch between batterys so i decided to only use one but i learned batterys go bad if not used? so i stored it in my fridge lol pm me if anyone wants it.
I bought a two pack of the "1800 mah" ebaytteries and not only do they get worse life than htc stick batt, but imo are running much hotter. Just bought anker, and going through the breaking in period (charging and uncharging fully...) Very cool running, obviously better life already.

It amazes me at how bad this "higher" mAh battery can be compared to stock...
And it looks curiously similar to the GT max battery they are selling on newegg. However, that battery has gotten good ratings

I keep saying to either go with the 3600mAh Mugen or the 1900mAh Anker two-pack. The $30 spent on the latter would have saved so much headache.

Too expensive. I'm not ready to shell out $20+ for a new battery. Best part about the ebay battery is, the 1800mAh battery was only a few dollars, and I told the seller I didn't want it. He let me keep it anyway and refunded my money. The battery life is pretty bad, about 20% less than stock. Lasts about 8-10 hours. But having a spare battery at all is great. Just that little extra boost when days get long. Otherwise I'm getting 10-12 hours of runtime on the stock battery, which is mostly fine for me.
It could be that I got a bad battery as well. Feedback for the battery is mostly positive

It's $10 for each battery plus another $10 for a wall charger. And your phone must have been a fluke, since the average battery life of the OEM battery is upwards of 6 hours.
Expensive is spending good money on crap that doesn't work well and fails in a short amount of time. The Anker is a good value. Value being good quality & functionality at low or reasonable cost. Value costs more than junk.
For me a Mugen might be awesome but the price point is wrong for me. I personally don't see the value in buying one. The Anker is a good value to me. Ebay batteries are of questionable use and suspect build quality they are over priced especially if they could damage my $600+ phone.
You have to decide for yourselves what value is for you. I appreciate a well functioning product at a reasonable price.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement.

You misunderstood me. I was looking for ONE battery at $10.
Bulk multiple buying =/= good deal
What am I going to do with two Anker batteries or the charger? I would only ever use one at a time, so that deal is unnecessary to me.
By the way, I wanted to ask anyone how the battery cover fares after multiple battery swaps. Does it get loose or out of shape over time? I'm afraid that might happen when swapping the battery often...

Given that the OEM batteries are $50 each, I'd like to know how $30 for two batteries AND a wall charger COMBINED is "too expensive."
My stock battery is shot. It will drain from fully charged down to nothing in an hour of browsing the net. I have tried everything to calibrate it and have tried different ROMs but still the drain is horrible.
I saw a 1900 anchor (ankor?) battery on amazon for $19. Is that the one that everyone buys?

Yes. http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1900mAh-Battery-Sensation-Mytouch/dp/B0053EZJMC
It works great. Though l don't use my phone heavily. I mostly use it at home when phone is plugged in. But still it last much longer than stock.
Most people buy Anker battery and are very happy with it. I personally wanted more juice so I bought Mugen 3800mah battery. With Mugen I get with extremely heavy use around 26 hours of use. With moderate use I get around 36 hours. Light use 48 hours. But one problem with mugen is you will have to replace your back cover and your phone will be thicker to accommodate the battery. For me personally, I was after extreme battery life so the thicker phone didn't bother me at all. Another issue is price. Mugen is five times more expensive than Anker. But for me, I'm keeping my phone for awhile so it was a investment. But most don't want to deal with those issues so they choose Anker. It all depends on what you want. I recommend you start with anker, then if you decide you want more juice, go with mugen. But for most Anker is just fine. It's a good battery and will give you extended use. If you want extremely long battery life, go with mugen.

This is probably a stupid question but you can charge the battery by plugging your phone in like usual right? I see that some of them come with a wall charger where you have to plug the actual battery into that.

Yes. Anker simply replaces your stock battery. Same shape size.
Is this Anker really that good? Beacuse I always buy the batterys from ebay (just like the ones for my DSLR) and have now a no brand 2430mAh using for almost a year and can use it a whole day without problems. Costs me only $12 and free shipping.
I bought 2 Anker batteries and a charger for $30US, I think. No regrets.

I bought my Anker 1 year ago and it still pretty good!
Get Anker.
An important thing to consider is anker has a 1 year warranty. And they WILL honor their warranty. I bought 6 batteries for my families LG Optimus Vs (Our first smartphones) and 1 battery went bad after like 6 months. I called them up a few months later when I realized I had a warranty, and they sent me replacement! (it was like 1 month before my warranty ended) And all they wanted was the serial numbers of the old batteries, however the original ones didn't have numbers so they instead just wanted a photo. (Which now that I think about it I never sent... ...)
Also, one of the chargers (that I bought with 2 batteries, a few months before that set of batteries I mentioned above) fried for some reason after about 8 months. So I left it on the shelf hoping I might be able to fix it. By the time I realized I had the warranty it had been over a year since my purchase. Bummer. So I called them up explained it went bad several months ago but I didn't know about the warranty, could they send me a replacement? And even though I was no longer in my warranty they sent me a new one.
Another thing is, for me, having spare batteries is a MUST as I have a LOT of free time at work. (I'm a background actor, and most of the time we have to do whatever we want) And continuous use (Browsing the web, playing games, reading news, watching TED AIR talks) drains a battery in 3 - 5 hours. And it can sometimes be 16 hour days, with no place nearby to plug in a charger. That's another awesome thing about Anker sets, the stand alone charger. I have MANY times been at work with one of my batteries dead. I looked for and found an outlet, a little far from holding, (where we are while we aren't working) and just plugged a dead battery into the stand alone charger and into the outlet. I can go to work or just go about my business not tethered to the wall, and 3 hours later my battery is charged. I then would switch one of my more drained batteries for it and continue like that.
So ultimately its up to you, but I would recommend getting a set of 2 Anker 1900mah batteries and a charger for $30. However if the charger isn't a big deal for you then look up some $7 Evo 3D batteries on Amazon. They are 1730mah, and are pretty decent.
Bragging here, I currently have around 10 batteries! Only 2 are anker. the others are 5 EVO 3D and 3 Sensation stock batteries I got for only $2 each! I found someone on Amazon selling them for $2 each with $4.50 shipping, only the shipping combined! So I got 8 batteries AND five 16GB Class 4 Sandisk MicroSDs for only $54 total. What a deal. lol.
Hello
Im going to put a larger capacity battery in my Desire Z and I wanted some recommendations. Also, normal sizes (as in demensions); None that come with a additional cover to compensate for the normal size this making the phone bigger.
Ankers 1600mAh, lasts for me more than 2 days between charges. Got mine for a fiver off eBay, brand new.

Hi,
I'll also went with the Anker. 2 Days without charging even when using custom roms... Definetely a good choice for this Price!
riahc3, if you ask for advice, don't argue about there being higher capacity batteries, if you want the mugen go get it, but if you asked advice in the first place then don't get annoyed when people don't give you the answer you want to hear. Sorry, that's just the way I see it.
If you're after numbers rather than advice, take both. Look at my screenies, yeah I know I'm a light user, under clocked and had a sneaky charge in between but this was on CM10.1 build 15 which supposedly has battery problems, and as you can see I listened to music for a couple of hours as well. Also everyone else here has gotten at least 2 days between charge with Ankers.
battery info
I am also thinking about buying a new battery but I think that it doesn't matter how much mAh of the battery has. I think that real question is how will be after 6 months of usage. Most of these aftermarket batteries are start good but after few weeks or months they become useless. So we need real user feedback. Is there anyone who uses any of the aftermarket battery more than few months?
I've started to use JellyBaby v1.5 ROM and I've decided to buy new battery instead of new device.

I've been using the Mugen battery for over two years now. Still get good battery life, although playing games drains it pretty fast. I can last two full days if I try, but it's pushing it. One day is easy.

Do you use home-screen widget or lock screen widget? Does they have any effect on battery life?
aftermarket battery? you're better off getting a oem, a lot of aftermarkets don't live up to the levels they advertise.
I recommend the evo 4g design battery, it fits perfect in our devices at a whopping 1520 mah compared to stock's 1300mah

What is the best battery for s4? I am buy aliex. What is your suggestion
I am sorry very bad english
I purchased the Anker 5200mAh battery a few months ago. Performance is great and I actually like the added bulk. I can easily get two days of battery with heavy use.
Anker 7800mAh. Best thing I bought so far. Makes your phone's weight similar to brick, but it's worth it. Lasts me 2 days.
My battery is not original may be it is 2600 mah may be ))) my screen time is 2 hour

I've been using ZeroLemon 3000mAh batteries for the last year or so. They're great. They add a tiny bit of bulk to the back of the phone, no big deal. You should know that they malfunction and deteriorate after like one year so you have to replace it then ASAP.
zerolemon 7500mah user here for a year now and this beast battery is still performing well...
heavy gaming ( clash of clans ) it gives me 13-15hrs Screentime...
charge it when im sleeping...
Moderate usage no gaming data connection on ( when is need to check something ) off when not in use. roughly 2-2 1/2 days.
my s4 can act like a powerbank aswell by the use of an USB OTG..
Ye, it is very nice choise! I have bought it to

Back then i had 2 choices.
To buy a new original battery which i am not sure if im gonna recieve a legit original one or just another knockoff. ( same screentime 3-4hrs max )
Or to buy a zerolemon which will definitely give me a better screentime guaranteed
Using the ravpower 2800 mah battery. I don't think there's a huge difference, but it lasts longer than the OEM, obviously because it's newer, but Aldo because it has that extra 200mah.
Can't go wrong with this battery, and it's only $10, compared to the ridiculous prices they're charging for the OEM version. Also, way too many counterfeit batteries out there to order an OEM.

But not real happy w/ it so far seems to drain faster than my Anker. Will give it a few charge cycles first to see if it settle down. Batterey Stat only showed it was about 3800 mAh, which is to be expected.

But not real happy w/ it so far seems to drain faster than my Anker. Will give it a few charge cycles first to see if it settle down. Battery Stat only showed it was about 3800 mAh, which is to be expected.

Still not sure about this thing...seems to be drainer faster the more I use it. Was charged to 100% the other morning, just sitting on my desk no use, dropped to below 60% by noon. Contacted seller , who suggested draining it completely then recharge. Will give it a few more tries, and return if it doesn't improve.
Popped my Anker back in yesterday, thing works like a boss.
