I was thinking about getting a back-up battery soon and I always had 3 1900 mah batteries for my iphones with an extension cable to plug in
I'm not sure what kind of battery i'm going to buy because of case's and screen protectors, I'd like to go with just replacement battery but if I have to take the case off all the time and maybe disturb the screen protector that wouldn't be good so I was thinking about doing the same as with my iphones with a cable
Anker Astro 5600mAh External Battery

Goto monoprice. They have 2800 mah batteries. Works great.
I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
i prefer the 4200 mAh solar powered from Deal Extreme (with optional wall/usb port re-charging in case you need it in a hurry)
it works everywhere
it's great when you work outdoors and no power outlets nearby

I definitely want to buy from that site but that 4200 mAh Solar I think is a little over kill for me I'm never in the sun to have that work LOL I think just a good high capacity battery will do as long as it's flat
great site

If you can hold out it worth it for the price. Just need to find a good female/male micro usb cable. The only one i could find so far is motorola's one, but its too short. But it is better than having that battery directly plugged in.

why not try anker astro, looks far more well made, if you look at both picture carefully, you may figure it out the anker one have a higher capacity but with, smaller size. i don't trust those cheap, made in china batteries. i have one of anker astro, see my attachment. already used 2 weeks, very handy. i take it long with me all the day.
What I don't understand is that until this day all the various sites told me tha the battery in the GN is 1750 mAh. But: http://www.google.com/nexus/#/tech-specs tells us that ther is a 1850 mAh battery in the GN.
Can I say cheers to the extra 100 mAh?

I thought I heard somewhere that the 1850 is the LTE version. Not sure why Google doesn't differentiate it like they do the other LTE-specific specs
Thanks! That would explain the difference.
I'd really like a large external battery with solar power. I bought one from eBay and it was terrible. Never charged my phone past 20%
Any suggestions? I dont care how much it costs, I just want the best, most powerful unit.
Monoprice has a 2800 mah battery for ~$15. Then find you a cable witg female micro usb and male micro usb on the other. Its not solar but a decent alternative.

- More capacity in the same form factor
- Fits in existing space so no replacement door is needed

So, basically a fancy replacement battery. Guess it will all come down to price. If it's only $5-$10 more than a standard replacement, I'd definitely get the slightly higher capacity pack.
I'd really be interested in a major capacity bump and a replacement door. Could give it a battery sized bulge, or an iphone 3gs (and earlier) style curved back.

i bet its not even really 2200mah and will not outlast the oem battery and will be more expensive if past batteries they release are an indication.
They did tests over on the captivate forum with crap ebay china batteries and even the Seidio batteries and they were ask worse than the oem despite having higher mah. The seidio actually just barely beat the $5 ebay one despite being like 17x more expensive.

you say that, but using basic electrical formulas for batteries, and the fact that the 1900mAhr battery can net me 36 hours on a charge. the extra 300mAhrs would give another 5.6 hours. That isn't insignificant.
of course that all assumes they can deliver on promises.
Its really impossible to do in the way batteries work

My experience with aftermarket batteries (for all kinds of devices) is that they rarely outlast the OEM batteries, no matter what mAh spec the manufacturer prints on the label. Most of them don't even last as long as the OEM batteries.
But hey, maybe these Seidio engineers have enabled cold fusion.
I just got 2 Motorola BH6X batteries on eBay for 12 bucks including shipping. I don't care about continuously charging batteries overnight, **** paying 50~65 bucks for a fancy battery that lasts 2 more hours. People should utilize eBay more instead of investing in gimmicks.

lol just wait a few months when your ebay batteries stop holding a charge and see if you still go back to ebay for batteries...and its not 2 more hours, oem batteries usually last 30-40% longer than ebay ones.
I've bought tons of batteries from eBay, they all worked perfectly. I guess I must be lucky. I don't know where you pulled those statistics from but whatever, everyone has different results. What works for one person clearly might not work for the other. To each his own.

Nexus one, Seidio 3200mAh tested at 2691mAh
Nexus one, Seidio 1600mAh tested at 1305mAh --->not bad but this one is double the price of the oem
i never said ebay batteries dont work, they just dont work very well...even if you get lucky and get an ebay battery that close to the listed mah it will start loosing capacity withing a few month, they have fewer charging cycles than an oem battery. i used to buy ebay batteries for my phones and laptops but start to realized batteries are not something you want to go cheap on but im glad that they are working out so far for you.
Guess I just got lucky. Oh well, what works for someone might not work for other people. No biggie, sucks for the people who bought **** batteries.
So I've seen a couple of eBay auctions for 3800mAh GNex batteries. I can't post the URLs here as links because I'm a too new here ( :-( ).
The price is right and the promise of 2x the rather modest battery life of the 1750mAh battery in my GSM GNex is hard to resist.
What does everyone think?
It will double the thickness of your Nexus, and has a cheap (and probably) non-ergonomic back cover.
I wouldn't it get as it has no NFC (Near Field Communication) antenna in it. Also, most of those cheap Ebay batteries are not rated as advertised.
Try it and get back to us. I'm trying the 2300 and 1900 mah GSM cheapo batteries from ebay and getting back to the community afterwards

Yes - that's one of them. Do a search for i9250 3800 and you'll be able to find the other.
Admittedly the back case doesn't look as nice as the stock one, but what I'm really worried about is my phone exploding in my pocket and injuring me. Or at least destroying my $600 phone.
This manufacturer has had a lot of similar units for various phone models.
I had been using a version for the Samsung Infuse 4G with no issues for 4 months or so, so I would expect the same for the Galaxy Nexus variant.
One thing to keep in mind however: these batteries DO NOT have the NFC Antenna in them, so you will not be able to use Google Wallet or the Android Beam options.
These batteries are actually are from a Droid Charge. I read it one galaxy nexus and i have tested it myself. There are some Droid Charge 3800mAh battery with good reviews you. But you still will need a back cover and will have NFC.

$11.89 for cover & battery seems fair for 3,800 mAh:

Just be aware that all batteries are not created equal, especially from china. Surefire batteries, specifically 18950 batteries used in high end flashlights. They just put a new shrinkwrap and recharge old batteries. Good or bad, it dont matter at least they look new. They advertise 3000mah, youd be lucky to get 2 of 10 that are 2000mah.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Well, given the price, I'd have to say it's going to suck, but then again - it's not that much money to try it - if you really need something that huge.
I would try it, but I'd rather wait for a package that comes with a case. In the end it's a $725 device that I don't want ding'd.
After trying a lot of these batteries on most of my phones over the years, I say that if it aint sold by the phone manufacturers, save your time and money.

I think you're thinking of 18650 batteries. Flashlight forums usually rate the surefires rather well compared to the others.
I'd say give it a try. those are generics. back in my multiple battery craziness days, i had 2 of those same generics for my Thunderbolt. they were ok.. at least they actually worked anyway. didn't use them long enough though to comment on longevity.

Yeah, I know what you mean about multiple battery craziness lol. I have two generic batteries for my Thunderbolt AND a huge Seidio extended battery along with my OEM. The generics work just as well as the OEM.
Generally any battery for your smart phone under $40.00 probably isn't rated at what it says it is. I've managed a fairly good collection over the years. You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to them.

Hello, I'm wondering the same if any user have any experience with this battery that claims 10 to 15% more battery juice for the note.
http://tinyurl.com/74h85h2
It seems that Japanese batteries instead of Chinese batteries have more xxx on providing the claimed power or mah. If that is the case, there is other two interesting batteries to explore:
3000 MAH
http://tinyurl.com/6wohgsy
2900 MAH
http://tinyurl.com/6sayynn
Also, these two batteries cost more than other ebay offers of 2 batteries plus charger. That seems to say something too. I am tempted to try the 3000MAH. Right now I'm just getting 12 hrs with my use style. I would love to extend to 15-16 hrs. That would allow me for a typical work day.
Right now I'm using 4-AA Imedion batteries within a Gomadic charger. This allows me three days of extra power before needing to charge the AA.
I know for sure Andida have a good reputation, I dont know about these 2 others brand.
For sure I would like to know more if some forum user experimented already.
Sorry about posting the other options. I felt in the marketing hype. It seems that company (e-cell) is not selling Japanese brands and others with others phones beware of that.
So it seems we should stay with already proven brands like Andida, Anker and others. I will try Andida and let you know.

I bought 1 original Samsung Battery and one other "oem" that I never trusted. I'm about to buy that 3000mAh ...Did you try it?
Sent from my Xoom on EOS ICS Everest
No, I didn't. The thing is that if you search within the forum for the "Gold" battery from business batteries, you'll find that everybody say it is not Japanese battery to begin with and just hold around 80% of the marketed mah. That is less than original samsung. Other said it lost juice around the 10 charge. It seems that all batteries sold from e-cell in ebay have this problems. Getting a battery for a phone that is old maybe is ok, but since we are looking more power I think we should look somewhere else.
OTOH, it seems brands like Andida, Anker and Mugen are more recognized brands. I will try the Andida and hope to hear something around 3000mah from Mugen.
Don't try the gold battery!!!!! I had it with my HTC desire. Its an outright fake. If you tear off the gold sticker, its a really lousy cell with cardboard stuffed. Lower than OEM!
In fact, I had 2 of this ****. Shameful dispray!!
I purchased 2 batteries from China for 5$, free shipping.
First the China batteries are light, my digital scale says for the genuine Note battery 49 grams, an both chinese are 41 grams.
There is 8-9 grams less material to accumalate current.
And its true, chinese cheap ones last, full charged, 20% less than genuine.
For me its OK for that price, if i need extra power, the two chinese are in my pocket, as spare batteries.
so these extended batteries are same size as stock?

Stick to Mugen and Anilda.
using it andida 2600mah almost 10 charges what i say bad then original. My ori batt from 100% to 99% around 15min on andida confirm less then 10min just normal browsing.
Guys I even tried Chinese battery and (as someone said) it's just lower in terms of weight. It even SMELLS...but works! Performance is about a 20/30% less instead of oem ones and I just leave it in case of an emergency.
About the "Gold" battery of e-cell, I don't really trust in a battery which seems powerful (in mAh) keeping the same shame! It's not logical, by the way I advice you to buy only Genuine OEM batteries and PERSONALLY I don't trust in sellers who say "genuine...oem...IN BULK". Original Samsung battrries are NOT in a bulk

I'm thinking of getting the Mugen 2300 milliamp/hour battery, but for 44 dollars, is it worth it? I game a lot, download a bunch of apps or update them, facebook, browse Google Play, etc. Will I have any issues with my Speck Candyshell case? I'm thinking of this one because its size is the same as the OEM battery and I don't wanna have to get a new battery door.
been using the iphone past month just switched back to the s3 today. Well last night.
Battery fits oem door. On my first charge so i cant comment on battery life.
Theres a 7 percent discount code that u can get on the website, i forgot where. I bought it when it was on sale for 38.
Shipping takes about a week and a half. They ship from china!
for the price, i would say no
its better to get the oem samsung battery.
its cheaper i think
slighly smaller capacity
but at least its made by samsung and can be more trusted
just my $0.02

Bad resource. I'm using Mugen Power for 2 years already and cannot imagine an Android phone without their battery.
The 2300mAh is more of a replacement battery, because it only adds 200mAh, but if you really need power, I'd go for their 4600mAh battery.

Looks interesting. It doesn't seem like its false information but maybe they decided on making better quality for the S3 batteries. I'll be receiving the 4600mAH Mugen battery soon and I'll have bench mark comparisons against the Hyperion, Anker, QCell, and Seidio. Hopefully it turns out ok for the price Mugen's charging us.
For the price it's just better to get one of the extended batteries /w door off Amazon. They're cheap and juice filled.
I'm using the OEM, because I don't want a huge-mungo thickness out of my thin phone and the battery services me well enough.

I wouldn't spend that much. I bought two Qcell batteries and a charger on Amazon for $25. They advertise 2300mah. Not sure if it's truly 2300 but it last just as long if not a tiny bit longer than my stock battery. They also have NFC built in. Individually the Qcell batteries are $10, so you could have 3 spare batteries and a charger for less than the price of one mugen battery.
I've been using the Qcells for about 2 months now. I havnt had any issues with them and NFC works great.

I also just received a 4600 mugen for my s3 I can not find a case I tried a hyperion and it did not fit. Do you have a case on ur s3 with your mugen battery?

When I had my Galaxy S4 Active with removable battery, I always carry a spare battery in my wallet. It's small enough and I don't want to carry my brick-sized Anker 10,000mAh battery. With the Nexus 5, I've been looking for a small, credit-card sized external battery that fit my wallet.
I found the Enerplex Jumpr Mini - it's exactly the size of a credit card and have a built-in USB micro cable AND full size USB port. It's only about 3 credit cards thick.
Capacity is only 1350 mAh, but that's good enough for me since I will always have this with me (I leave my Anker at home most of the time). Output is 850mA but charges my Nexus 5 just fine. From 52% to 91% in 56 minutes.
This may not be for everyone, but if you have the same needs as mine (external battery that is portable enough to put into wallet), this is a good find. I got mine from Fry's Electronics but you can also get it from Amazon here.

You're welcome!
That one in KickStarter is only 600mAh I think, so I am glad I have this.
Very interested. How much was it at Fry's?
Never mind. I found it. 24.99. Found it for same price in Amazon with free shipping too. The above link charged shipping. Ordered!

I got it. But I can't fit it in my wallet with my other stuff. I would have to remove a lot of cards. But I don't have a traditional wallet, so maybe it works better for others.
Nice find. I think it's a bit pricey though considering I got my anker 6,000 mah for 30. I think 15-20 would be a more fair price. It does seem really convenient. I carry around my anker in my bag, but I don't always have that with me.
I actually looked around and found this on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GU589GG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The dimensions are actually a bit smaller than the jumper mini and the battery is apparently 2,000 mAh. Only downside is that it doesn't have a built in microusb cable but it does come with two of them. It's a lot cheaper too. I ordered one today so if anyone is interested I can post pics/review it.

Oohh... that looks really nice! Please do provide reviews and pics once you have it. I am interested in the size (same as credit card?) And output capacity.
With the Jumper Mini, I can use the phone and charges at the same time.

Sure, will do. It's actually slightly longer than a credit card, so hopefully it has no trouble fitting in my wallet. But yeah I should get it on Thursday so I will try and write something up by the weekend.
Can I get this in Germany somehow? Was lookin' for something like this!
Just bought this a few days ago from frys for 9.99! well worth it for a small carry battery to give my phone a boost when I need it. Great find!
