I think for us GSM folks, the Korean 2000 mAH extended battery will be the best bet. Just have to watch ebay for it.
The GSM Galaxy Nexus has launched in many Asian markets as of now. Extended battery, genuine or not, will come very soon!
Now it's selling in:
- Hong Kong
- Australia
- Thailand
I think you need a bigger back with the Korean battery though.
Does your new battery have and NFC chip on it? the Gnex default battery has the NFC chip if you are not using a battery with this you will loose your nfc functionality.
i bought the 2100mAh this morning, $37.49 with corp discount.
EDIT: battery also came with battery cover as well and appears to be NFC compliant.

if it comes with a battery cover, do you think it would fit in a GSM phone ?
I couldn't find the extended battery on verizon's site. They only had car dock, case and some nonsense.
Is it available online?

Verizon has all of their extended batteries for 1/2 price for all 4g LTE phones until the end of this month!
I went and got one for the GNEX it's 2100 mAH and adds about 1mm to the size of the phone.

*cough* where have you been, bro.? But thanks for sending out reminders for those who haven't gotten one yet.
Just ordered 2100mah Battery @ 1/2 price
on the VZW website, if you search 2100 mah, the battery comes up as half price. You can't order online, there is a a Call button that gives you the number to sales. After making the case that the $24.99 should be honored, the rep ordered a battery for me.
How much better is the battery life with this 2100mah?
How much better does the extended battery help battery life and does it also work with the GSM version

Very little extra, but some. What you would expect out of 15% extra. Also, the verizon battery won't work in the gsm phone.

I received my extended battery last night and will calibrate it tonight. My best charge on the OEM battery was just over 23 hours. I'll report back results on the extended next week.
These are the ones that I've found until now.

If you could find better offer for this battery or if you can tell me where you bought your extended battery it would be great
the first one is the gsm and the ones on amazon are the LTE version, you can tell they are different by looking at the pic of the battery. another place you can get the gsm extended battery is Gmarket it came to about 40 with shipping, i order mind from gmarket and it came in about 5 days.
eBay one is GSM.... I have that battery myself (as well as many others... it works)
go to korea direct to buy it will be cheapest, hong kong is the next, but they are out of the question, the cheapest on ebay is USD 39.97.

Lol, fly to Korea for a battery...
Yeah, at least they are genuine batteries (have to be for NFC). I like this, actually. It takes the hassle out of grappling with fakes that suck big time. $39 for a real made in Korea battery with NFC is actually a good price. I recall when replacement batteries for phones were at least $60.

Apparently the extended battery is available from Verizon wireless for $24.99. (Great price)
This has been the case for a few months now but I'm unsure whether the deal is still on as I'm British and can't check on the website.
Yep get the 2100 mah battery at the Verizon store.

Love how no one mentioned that the extended battery from VERIZON only works for the CDMA model and not the GSM model.
The cheapest GSM 2000 mah extended battery is on ebay from shimshop ~$30ish.
CDMA/LTE = Verizon
Not Verizon? it's GSM.
I got the trexcell 3800 extended battery from Amazon for 20 bucks..should be a lot more juice than the Verizon 2100 extended battery AND it's cheaper!

No back cover usually means a stolen phone.
Check and make sure its not blacklisted before buying.
Even then, buy with caution.
this is a warranty 'replacement' for my Droid Charge. I've had lots of probs with my droid charge so they are replacing it with a nexus under my warranty... cost me $150 however..

The store clerk messed up then. When a warranty replacement is ordered, they have two options. Order a replacement for the same phone or order a replacement for a different phone. The second option comes with the battery and door. When I had my fascinate replaced by an incredible 2 I got everything.

Not Necessarily. I had a warranty replacement for my Droid RAZR to a Nexus, and I had to get the battery door, and battery, though Verizon gave me a $20 credit, so it only cost me $26.

Really? I didn't think so. I was under the impression that the GSM and CDMA batteries we're NOT interchangeable. I found the official GSM extended battery from Samsung for sale on Nigrielectronics from other posts but it's sold out.
It's not available on Amazon and I can't find anything but shady looking vendors when I google.
Anyone have any ideas? I (think) know it needs to be the i9250 variety to work on the GSM (play store) version.
The Mugen battery is also listed as sold out.
I got mine on ebay. Took a couple weeks to arrive, tho.

Don't buy from expansys-usa, I tried to purcahse a battery from them (the extended OEM one) and they didn't restock for 2 weeks. I called them to ask when my battery was due and they said "we haven't delievered it", asked for a refund and they gave it me (although a bit rude). Go with shimshop on eBay, I personally brought one from the same shop and it was awesome. They give you a tracking number for international (you can track it here when it's overseas). Then you plug in the number into USPS and it tells you where it is stateside. Took about 2 weeks to arrive and the package was clean, sealed and no dents/scratches (the guy who sells them is very friendly and responds to questions very fast).

GSM batteries and CDMA batteries are NOT the same.
They DO use the same battery as other models though. One is the T-Mobile SGSII I think.
CDMA Verizon has its own extended battery.

I believe the TMo SII and Skyrocket batteries fit the CDMA GNex, not the GSM. I know for a fact that the Skyrocket fits the CDMA GNex, not sure about the TMo SII though.

read all my post.
I bought a battery from Ebay that claimed to he an authentic Samsung battery (with NFC). The NFC works but it does not charge properly (in the phone or a standalone charger). I later found out that it is not a true Samsung battery.
I bought this combo pack from Amazon last week and they seem to be working out. The NFC does work. They seem to charge ok. On thing that I have noticed is that they will drop to below 100% very quickly (unlike the battery that came with my phone) even though they last all day and seem comparable to the original battery except for the initial drop to 97%. One thing that I noticed about these batteries: They are marked as 3.7VDC 2200mAh (while the original is 3.8V 2100 mAh).
