Hii everyone..can we use the galaxy note battery in S2..? is there any size difference..? If its same then a 2500mAh battery can increase the battery life of the phone..

I thought this post would have been more productive such as you having found out that the battery sizes are same with different capacity. Unfortunately you ain't got jack!
IMO though, there isn't a chance that the note's battery will fit being that it is a 5" device so I presume there is more space for a larger battery.

Hmmm let me think... ones 1650mah and the other is 2500mah. Of course there's a size difference...
genius...
Why don't you try truck batteries?

Lol, I am sure he meant the dimensions..
As an example, SGS had 1500mah , but when SGS [GT-I9003] came with 1650 mah, it was possible to fit its battery in the SGS [GT-I9100]..
This was probably what OP was asking.

Don't mind the flamers. A good general rule is, the higher the mah, the bigger it HAS to be with our current technology and manufacturing methods.
Don't be fooled by fake batteries saying they have much more capacity than the original without adding considerable size... they are always low quality fakes that usually have even lower capacity than the original :O
In general its best to stay away from cheap batteries on eBay, but there's one exception. The anker 1900mah batteries fit into the stock battery door (same slim phone profile) but provide a bit more mah. I personally tested them and they are great value. 2x 1900mah batteries + one external charger for around $20!! Now I never have to plug in my phone I just keep one battery in the charger, one in my phone, one in my pocket (I have three, including the original). Just make sure you get the original anker charger, not the cheap black charger. There have been problems with those I heard.
Note- I am not affiliated with anker just trying to get the word out feels nice not caring about battery life.
Considering the Samsung 2000mAh battery is physically bigger than the stock 1650mAh battery, there's no way the 2500mAh battery will be the same size.
Having said that, the pin and physical layout might fit (i haven't tried), but you won't be able to fit the back cover assuming the battery is thicker.
No, it is a different sized battery. Same width and depth but a good centimeter longer.
(A friend of mine has the note, first thing I tried was 'borrowing' the battery!)
Nice thought, and maybe as an external mod, but it would never fit inside the Sii casing.

Hi guys. I searched but I don't think Anyone has asked this before. Ok, this may seem dumb and i'm sorry but, I'm wanting to get a better battery for my Excalibur but have a question first. Would it be possible to use a battery that's higher than 1050mah and 3.7v? If so, what's the maximum volts/amps I can use without frying the Excalibur? I've found a few batteries that would fit but are a lot more powerful than the original Excalibur battery.
Thanks for any help you all can provide.
Battery capacity is limited by the size and the chemistry used. Li-Ion delivers 3.7 volt - you cannot change that and the device will not work with others. You are simply stuck with what is available. Try to get an original battery, they usually supply the best capacity.
Cheap 3.rd party only brag about their capacity that they never deliver - they simply lie to you straight face. If you are curious (and have some knowledge about the topic) follow my signature.
i am not advising this and do it your own risk, but, i used to use the battery from my htc s310, i had to use a little pressure to pop it in the dash. but once its in, it gives you a longer battery life than the original dash battery. you cant charge it while its the dash though, you have to put back in the s310 to charge it.
Thanks Tobbbie for the useful info. Much appreciated!
Kachman, I don't think I'd want to go that far as to having to switch a battery between phones every time I need to charge it. >< I've done some research since my last post and now have another question - I've heard about the 1300mah batteries but I don't want to have to get a bigger door for my phone. Is the 1300mah okay to use for the S620 and will it fit in with the factory door? If not, what is the absolute highest that will still fit in the original door?
Thanks.
Why not just make a battery hack? USB plug soldered to a homemade battery pack. Then plug it into the USB port on the bottom on the phone.
Each battery is 1.5 volts (AAA, AA, C, D), thus you would need at least three connected in series. 1.5 x 3 = 4.5 volts. I would think the extra .8 volts may not hurt the phone. Electrical components have a tolerance for voltage variances.
Only way to find out is to test it, unless you take the extra mile to design something to reduce the voltage before it goes into the phone.
I remember Stylez advocating long time ago for a prominent Simplo 1550 mAh battery. May be you can find it.

Tertuliano
for HTC, the maximum value I know is about 2000mAh

I have a standard 960 mAh and the 1550 mAh in my S620, They both came with the phone when it was new (From BT) The 1550 mAh is much better (Longer lasting) but does require a new back cover which is HUGE compared to the smaller one.
No idea where to buy the battery or cover from though, Sorry.

Hey Vovantuong, how many mha provides the Nokia batteries. Does it makes any difference the fact that pin 3 doesn´t hit any contactor?
sorry for late replay. battery BL5c = 1020mAh. BL5CB = 800mAh
pin 3 not contactor Nokia battery because if contactor, s620 can not boot

Using tethering for my ipad 2 wifi and downloading bt using ttorrent regularly. stock battery can't last me a day. This one can last me full day with around 15% left.
Also got a galaxy nexus battery rated at 2050mAh
Can you comment on the 2050 MAh battery? Does it fit with the stock back cover? Doesn't really seem legit as the OEM extended requires a different back cover.
Might be worth the risk checking it out for $15...
You can use original cover with the 2050mAh battery from what i tried here

NFC is unavailable for all third party batteries as far as I'm aware
Unless the third-party in question chooses to equip their batteries with a suitable aerial.
As this is the first thread I'm aware of featuring this particular brand of battery, it's worth asking.
can u tell us if the 2050mah worths the stock battery or if its better?
Nice Find! Ordered, seems like our phone might finally function as a replacement for a handheld GPS (Garmin, Magellan etc...)
I would love to hear your thoughts on the 2050mAh battery. It seems like a lot of these aftermarket batteries don't do any better than the stock battery even with the higher charge capacity.

I am getting the 2050mAH batteries on Monday and will test it out.
Any updates?
bump for updates pls
it's running quite well. I'm getting around 20% power left on a full day of internet / chatting / a family guy and simpsons video / 30 mins tethering. This thing is a beast compare to the original battery!
such things are REALLY ugly. But I understand why we need it.
So the question is, why there can't be something as slim as Razr MAXX's 3300mah battery? ...
In the past I thought it is technological impossible to produce the slim extended battery like Maxx's, until I see how Razr Maxx works.
It is thicker than Original Razr, but it is so much better in design with giant battery.

Think it has something to do with the fact that it isn't removable, but I may be wrong.
Do they make these for the LTE variant? Seidio has a 3850 battery but it costs almost $70 and this is only $20!
The 2050mah i am getting around 1 and half hour more than usual compare to stock.

4150mAh? That is more than my laptop's battery. I would love to see what kind of runtimes you get with that beast
Wow! Thanks for the heads up on this. Ordering one of each.
Would love to hear the results on the slim battery - wonder if it really reads higher than the stock 2500mah battery.
These seem awfully cheap. Is QCell a reputable manufacturer of batteries?
omg it looks so ugly and for sure it will burn your galaxy note... have fun ^^
Waiting eagerly for reviews of both ...
Somewhat dubious at that price though
Can you please post some picture with the extended battery and cover attached to the Note

Voltage * capacity = total power
Your laptop battery is around ~15V, which is 4 to 5 times higher than the battery in the note.
the lack of the polarity signs on top, and the price , and the fact that they are chinese batterys http.. etc etc ..superexporter.com/suppliers/quality111699398794775225-ningbo_qcel_battery_co_ltdDOThtml (can´t post links) makes me believe that they are just like all the others chinese fakes in ebay, worth the buy .. but don´t be expecting big mah numbers.. in fact don´t even expect 80 % of the mah of stock battery

Agreed. I get about 50% of 'stated' mAh on my Chinese batteries. Still a good buy, don't get me wrong, but I am going to pay the extra $15 to get a stock battery now.
Did the 2800 give you more time or its fake?
isn't those chinese batteries harmful for the device .... and can any one post an image for the battery usage

4150mAh @ 3.7 volts though. I bet your laptop battery runs closer to 15 volts! THe more important figure is how many watt/hr's the battery can supply.
4150mAh @ 3.7v = 15.2625 watt/hr (4.125*3.7)
4150mAh @ 15v = 61.875 watt/hr (4.125*15)
anyone with the test reports of the same
not worth it.
I bought one of each and the slim one did not even last a day. And the thick one lasted exactly a day. I was surfing the net for about one hour constantly texting maybe a 2hr phn call total. And some games like temple run and asphalt. I still recommend the mugen 3400mah this lasted me a day and a half doing the same things.

Hello,
I've had terrible battery life on my GSII for the longest time now. I've tried countless ROMs, Kernels, Modems, combinations and nothing has worked. At this point I'm fairly convinced it's a hardware issue. The cheapest/easiest route is to replace my battery. I know the Anker 1900 mah comes well recommended, but has anyone tried their 1750 mah model?
Here's the one I'm looking at specifically:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anker-Batte...726270?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3371b0867e
I'm hoping it's the "1900 mah" battery that's gotten so many good reviews, but properly labelled this time around. Any thoughts? Anyone have this battery?
Thanks!
I have the anker 1900mah. It is a tight fit. I didnt have any problems with it but case/cover extended battery are a more practical way to go.
Just buy a case/cover battery from ebay ... it will add another 2200mAh to your existing battery.. .while it is bulkier, it is not that unuseable. It will keep your phone powered for at least 8 hours under intense usage.... (a lot more hours if you do not much)... When the case battery is drained down, you can easily remove it and have your old phone back.
But to extend the life of your battery on your phone, you are better off running it down to 40% before attaching the extended case battery. The case battery will automatically charge your phone battery back to 100%, while it gets drained down. And itself will run out first. This way you minimize the time spent with the bulk.
I'm going to go ahead and order the 1750 mah later today. Once they come in I'll let you know how they perform!

how is your experience with your new Anker 1900 mah?
I've been using the Anker 1900aMh for about a year, got two & a charger for £15 from Amazon. I highly recommend them, last longer than original & having a spare in the pocket makes it certain I NEVER RUN OUT of gas

can you use the 1750 or the 1900 with the original cover?
i have the 2000 version from samsung. but you need a little bit bigger case (included) their.

The 1900 mah is supposed to be a tight fit with the standard battery cover. My 1750 mah batteries should be coming in today so we'll see how they fit.

I experienced Anker batteries to have drop down in power during time.
For 2 months it was fine.. but after i starting loosing power.. according to Battery Monitor Anker after 4 months of use lost 34% of its max power...
If you drain your battery down too much or leave it empty uncharged, that can happen

Recently I was contacted by LapTopMate.com and asked if I wanted to test one of the new ANKER extended batteries for the GS3. As someone who has used them for quite a while in other phones I said yes.
It arrived today and now I am charging it. Will do comparison on ON SCREEN time with the Standard battery.
Thanks ANKER!!

I just saw this battery on Ebay. The price is about 25 US Dollar. I am very interested in your results!
yea. doe the 100 mha more make that much of a diff?
NFC? does that work?
I don't see any reference to NFC on the packaging. But for a spare battery, it really doesn't matter. (I've never used NFC anyway.)
I'm hoping I get about 30 more minutes of screen time out of it. Time shall tell.
Anker batteries for the Galaxy s3 doesnt have NFC, yet!
i get about 2 hours of extra battery life with this battery.
So far so good at 50%.
Nice.any good links to vendors for this battery,I would like nav but I'm not using it yet anyway.

I've been using this battery for about a week now and it's a GREAT battery (minus not having nfc). For $8.99 on Amazon its an absolute steal and it holds a charge great.
For $9 you can't pass it up.

Yes it does.
No NFC though.
I got a little over 7 hours of on screen time at 1%. Failed to get a screen capture though.
Will run it through a second cycle to see how that one goes.
Bought 2 for 16$ on Ebay. Probably only need 1, but I may just sell the extra off on craigs or something.
They'll jack up the price once word gets spread out anyway.
I too was contacted by laptop mate and received a trial Anker 2300mAh battery for my Galaxy S III.
I already own two Hyperion batteries, and compared to those, my Anker battery is fantastic! While I would estimate that the Hyperion battery gets around 60-70% of what my stock battery gets, my Anker battery gets battery life on par (if not slightly better) than my stock battery.
However, I have a couple of gripes with it... One of the plastic "tabs" that separate each of the 4 battery terminals broke off on one end. This makes it so that I have to be sure to make the plastic tab straight so that I can charge the battery while it's in my phone. Otherwise, it switches very rapidly between "charging" and "battery disconnected" (though it remains powered on). I'm not too sure how that happened, but that may have been when I was putting it on/taking it off of my Hyperion battery charger. Another gripe is that it doesn't have NFC. Then again I haven't even found an opportunity for me to use NFC besides the Paypass CC terminals (and Google wallet doesn't work on Verizon, so that's bunk anyway.)
I would definitely recommend the Anker battery, especially if they add NFC in the future. It gets great battery life on par with the stock Samsung Battery at a much lower cost, and if you can take one or two minor manufacturing defects (that are easily fixed) on the battery terminals, then there's no reason not to pick one up in my mind.
