Ive had Hyperion batteries before and they seem to hold up very well, unlike those cheap chinese batteries that you get on ebay these actually last through the night
Edit:
Batteries do not have NFC!

i'd probably trust the tech specs.

Probably a good option as I can vouch for Hyperion as well.
Folks should be aware, though, that these batteries do not have NFC.

Oh yea ill edit no NFC, but than yet again i dont know any aftermarket batteries that use NFC so yeah lol

Mine shipped today, ill give yall details on it when i receive it

No real need to be a third party battery at this point Verizon is offering half on on the extended battery $25 and normal batteries for $20. They have NFC

I bought the verizon extended battery (I also want to keep NFC). I would like to get a cheap charger but cant seem to find any with just the charger.

They have some on ebay but its 30$ with 1 battery. but its better to get the one in the link i posted above

I'd love to buy the GSM version, but the link posted in the OP isn't working

The link in the OP is working but these batteries are currently out of stock.
Maybe you try it later or order from eBay?
Currently they cost 25$ but shipping to Canada costs aditionally 15$.

My uncle lives in the US and he can always send it here so shipping isn't an issue. Thanks for the reply though.
Does anyone know when they will be getting more?
EDIT: They received stock for the GSM version. I'll probably be buying this ASAP.
EDIT2: Didn't buy them, as I think I'll need NFC.

Recommend Batteries?

Can anyone recommend any good batteries that are 1500mah or above without extended doors off ebay or what not? At least something that works efficiently and not crappy with a decent price!
Thanks!
Anyone know of any good cheap batteries?
They aren't cheap, but the batteries for the galaxy s 4g are 1650mah... They have them in tmobile stores for $50 with a desktop charger included...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
Ebay has plenty. should cost you between $10-$20 for two spare batteries and a battery charger
The 1650mah Galaxy S4G batteries are not sold anywhere yet I think. Tmobile sells the original Vibrant ones for $50....and that is a ripoff.
Amazon and Ebay have them for $15. That is ORIGINAL SAMSUNG 1500mah batteries for $15.
Will the extra 150MaH really help that much? Like would we see a big difference or are we just talking minutes?
I bought an 1800 mah battery from ebay, forgot the price. No extended door.

Have you tested it to see if it really is 1800 mah?
They are not 1800mah. Lol. If you are lucky it will be 1400mah.
See this topic. It has all the chinese batteries sold currently tested. As you will see, they LOVE lying to people about capacity.

For those wondering, the extra 150mah will be a 10% in battery life of whatever you are getting now. I get 23 hours currently with moderate usage so thats about 4-5 hours for me.
10% of 23 hours would be 2 to 3.

Haha sorry, you are correct. I can't do math it seems.
Have in mind my battery is old though...it's now 7 months old with being charged every night. The new 1650 will give me more than 10% simply cause my old battery is well...old.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good, bigger, cheap battery? I need one since my phone dies all the time lol.
Seidio's 3000mah battery is awesome. It lasts me about 18 hours with very heavy use and adds a rubbery grip to the phone that i love. It makes the phone a bit thicker but it's surprisingly cool looking compared to other extended batteries. It is a 1000000000x's better than having to worry about having a charger every single place i go or remembering to carry one with me for that matter.

Help. global direct parts t959v battery

So I ordered the oem t959v batteries 3 for about 60usd and want to confirm what others received when they ordered the same.
The batteries I received states 1500mah and the sticker is not applied as tightly as my vibrant battery. It lifts a little so the sticker now is bent.
I was under the impression that t959v was a 1600mah battery so please let me know if I should send back or not.

They aren't Vibrant 4G batteries, those are 1650mAH batteries. Global Direct is aware they're selling lesser batteries, and will work with you to "fix" the problem for you, but only if you complain.

I also ordered 3 batteries and all three were 1500mah. They will work with you to correct the problem but most-likely you will have to pay for return shipping.

Not sure why anyone would get any other battery. I use these, they're excellent, and fit perfectly. Every non-OEM battery I've tried gives me hell in one way or another, and 1500mAh just didn't cut it, so the 1800mAh batteries are the only way to go.

Anker 1750mAh battery for SGH-T989

So I found this 1750mAh Anker battery for the T989 and I'm wondering:
The standard OEM battery is 1850mAh.
This Anker battery is 1750mAh.
Anker is known to make higher capacity batteries that don't require a separate back cover. (I've had an HTC Sensation and an Anker battery was like heaven on it)
So is this Anker battery really 1750mAh? It would seem kind of pointless since the OEM battery is 1850mAh ... Has anyone ever bought this before? There are no reviews
Yeah, I saw that as well. I don't think it's worth getting since it's a bit worse in mah compared to the stock...
I knew that the Ankers were reasonably better than stock EVO 3D batteries, but this does not seem to be the case here.

I'm wondering if anyone got it. Its not even so expensive. I suppose Anker made it 1750mAh but did some tweaks to make it last longer than stock, if that's possible at all. Just a guess.
Any other batteries anyone would recommend? I only prefer one that barely adds much thickness with a new cover.

There's a 95% chance I will be ordering this soon, so I'll keep this updated when I receive it. I have good hopes for it because of my previous experiences with Anker batteries. They work wonders.
keep us posted of your impression
Just ordered the battery
I'll post my results.
Edit:
My results with the 2050mah battery are noticeably better than stock. I would go as far as to say that I'm getting 2 or more extra hours out of each charge. For $10 on Amazon, you are definitely getting your money's worth.
I was going to insert some screenshots and the Amazon link, but apparently I have to post 8 times to the forums before I can post links..... so, you'll have to take my word for it and do your own Amazon search for the Anker 2050.
planning on ordering one myself. please let us know guys! thanks!
I ordered one yesterday. It should arrive sometime this week. I will post results when i get it.

All these higher capacity rated batteries are a joke, these companies that sell these batteries can't fit more capacity into the same sized battery, its just not possible.

Same seller but it includes a battery cover
I have purchased 3 of the 2000 mah XPower batteries! They work perfectly fine!! It gives me more life than the stock 1750 mah!
Also its the exact same size as that of the stock battery... So no worries abt an extra back door!
And I got 3 of them + the wall charger for the battery for less than $10 on ebay!!
So now i have totally 4 batteries - 3x2000 + 1x1750 = 7750 mah!!
Definitely worth it rather than holding a clunky phone with an extended 3000+ mah batteries!!

Thanks, I did see that one, although it comes out to $13 including shipping. I was hoping to find a $10 one that included shipping but I think that may be asking for too much So I'll probably just go for the 2 pack + charger for $10 shipped. That will give me 3 batteries total, which should be plenty of juice.
Anyways, I appreciate you taking the time to look. Thanks!

I'm not sure either, sacthegreat was the only person to respond and he/she said that these batteries did have more capacity. I think it would be very difficult to measure this anyway, since there isn't a direct measurement for mah in the phone. And because the difference in capacity is relatively small (~14%) I'm not sure how easy it is to notice in daily use; changes in how the phone is used could mask the capacity difference.
So I've made up my mind, I think that I'm going to try two different brands of batteries (+charger) and see if one is better than the other

The total comes out to $10 shipped, which is the same price as buying the two pack with charger. So hopefully this will increase the odds of getting at least one good battery
I totally missed the shipping in the link I gave, sorry as I had no intention of buying it and didnt realize shipping wasnt included. I would just get the 2 batteries as I dont think the extra 3rd battery is worth like 30% more but if you need a lot of battery, I guess you can go for it. I dont have any experience with this battery but do with Hyperions and those have worked great for me. I just keep the phone charged and make sure the spare is charged as well. If I did get a bundle with 3 batteries, I think it would be difficult to keep track of all of them and remember which one is charged and which isnt. I like the simplicity of one spare battery and the oem one
It's the stock size itself! And i got a little battery life than the stock battery on my phone! Not a big difference, but i could notice it!

eBay sells them for around 6 USD. Alternatively, you can spend 10-11$ on eBay as well and get a anker 2200 mAh battery, which has slighty more capacity than the stock battery. =)

dont think the one you get for 6$ would be original however anker make good batteries and is worth the 10$ investment, you could also look at an extended battery from hyperion or anker in tune of 4200~4400mah

Ah true they seem to be around 12$ for the OEM, not sure where I got 6 from haha. But yeah anker or hyperion is the way to go for 10$ batteries that have solid performance, otherwise if you want an extra 100 mAh you can go for the mugen 2300 for 40$.
I've been seeing the 2100 OEM batteries around $15. The ones that are less are Chinese counterfeits. Don't be dumb.

Honestly, if you want the NFC capability, buying from the official Samsung website is the way to go.
However, if NFC isn't necessary, Anker makes great batteries. I got 2 for a good deal. Been using all 3 and have good battery life.
You can get them off Amazon.

I have Anker 2200mAh battery and i can highly recommend it. I also have a cheap 4500mAh battery, which has lasted even 3 days in normal usage. With Anker/Hyperion 4200-4400mAh, you can probably get even 4-5 days, because they are much better quality.
