Just received it in the mail today. Definitely OEM and adds a very minimal amount of bulk. The only thing it doesn't do is curve in around the bottom of the phone, making it look more uniform. My Amzer case also fits this perfectly and i'm sure all other do as well. Here's the link if interested.

want to buy this so bad, but i won't be able to use my case with it. honestly though i'm getting great battery life. but i'll be sure to bookmark that link for the future maybe.
I also ordered from Shimshop. What date did you place your order? Just wondering how long delivery took!
Regards.
4 1/2 hours vs. 4 hours worth it?
This battery is a marginal increase in capacity and probably makes the phone incompatible with OEM accessories.
Is it worth it?

If you're using the extended battery with the GSM version you can just use cases meant for the LTE version since they are both marginally thicker than the GSM version with the normal battery.

Now that we know that it can fit in our GSM Nexus, the question is how significant is the improvement.
In your normal use, how long does the normal battery and the extended battery lasts?

Hello everyone!
Has anyone heard of an 1800 battery for the TB that is/will be the same size as the stock battery? Something available now or coming out soon? Also, are 3rd party brands good/safe to use in my TB? (I've heard good things about some company that sounds like Seido or something...??).
Right now, the 1600mA one that's out just doesn't seem like that much of a jump, and I definitely DONT want the bulky 2750 one.
I figure with an 1800mA battery and once my TB is rooted (and I can dial down the CPU while it's sleeping/standy), I will start to get decent battery life out f it.
Do a search its been answered. I'd give you a link but I'm using my phone.

Yeah, so apparently, this precise question hasn't exactly been answered (maybe I'm missing it somewhere? If so, please link.) As the OP suggested, im not really into the 1600, especially with all the talk of the siedio's supposed overrating on their batteries. Has anyone heard any rumours? Reviews? Anything at all?

supposedly htc is working on some like they have for the inc and evo the 1800 mah which dont require a new back.
I hope this true. I would love a longer lasting battery that's slim.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Yeah I'm not too excited about getting a giant battery that will make my phone even bigger. Hopefully, HTC will release a slim 1800mAH battery.
Agreed I decided to go for 3 of the generic 1500mah fleabay batteries, but if an 1800mah was eventually available I'd be all over it.

Lol, it is a little tough, but I don't have any issues like others have been having. I just grip it with my right hand down near the kick stand and pop it off using my left thumbnail piece of cake to me. So maybe I have mutant tough nails or just a bit more rough with pulling the battery cover off

I had one of these in my DX and I LOVED it. Hoping that they bring it to the TB.

ROFL Love that movie.
Has any found a slim extended battery? Before ordering the Seido 3800mah one. Tried but couldn't find anything. Wanted to see if there is one out there that is still more mah then the stock one but same size so I don't have to suffer from adding the additional thickness. Not looking for anything close to 3800 with a slim one of course, maybe in the 2000's area or so. Thanks in advance.
mugen is doing one
i tried to find this but failed. could only find the HUGE one for the i900 or whatever.
can someone post a link?
Vzw galaxy nexus extended batt works, but your back cover will be rendered useless. Mines off, but covered by a seidio active and works pretty well.

anker are known to be good batteries, but you should get the galaxy nexus battery that you can pick up from the verizon store. The OEM batteries have NFC capabilities the others do not. OEM should last longer too even though the mah are different.

Yup, and $25
Been on the VZ nexus extended battery for a month - wow it is great. Much better than I expected. Took off the label paper, trimmed off the plastic end caps to the battery height (with a razor blade). Left on the NFC antenna, but can get it thinner by cutting that off. My stock cover barely bulges. It's been $35 at Amazon (Samsung 2100 mah extended with cover) or at Verizon (lucked out when it was $25)
I just ordered the anker 2050 from ebay for 9.99 shipped.
I dont use nfc and our phones lack the secure element needed for g00gle wallet. I also wanted the back cover to fit correctly without having to modify the battery, and 50mha isnt a big difference.
Hands down nexus...

The better the system the more battery it Burns, I app pose that if the processors and memory were less consumptuous then maybe we would be better off. Honestly even if you are turning off certain process patterns or psych out the brain it won't help, the won't be such a thing as a perfect phone unless you built it yourself, but unless the boards and parts are sold to secure in sockets your out of luck.

I'm looking for a higher capacity battery that will fit in my Otterbox Defender case for my SGH-T999.
My current battery is the stock 2100mha battery.
I would like one that is of any higher capacity, but will still fit in the battery compartment.
ZeroLemon puts out a great product. I own their largest extended battery for the GS3 and largest slim extended battery for the GS3.
Check out the slim extended battery here.
It's 2300mAh and fits just like the stock battery in the stock battery cover. But it lasts considerably longer than stock.

That aint bad for 20$. Two batteries and a charger (that I will never use)
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll keep em in mind. I'm still gonna attempt to find an extended life battery around 3000mAh+ with a rugged case that will fit it. I almost went for the Trident one, until I found out the battery in it is actually weaker than my stock one.
I just love the screen protector on my otterbox, I dont really want a case without one.
Well yeah, if you are not interested in NFC it's a very good deal for 20$
