I used the search button, but couldn't find this battery anywhere...
I found this battery when I was searching on ebay. It costs €8-13($6-9) ex. shipping. Haven't bought this battery yet, but was wondering if anybody had or has already had experience with it?
Links:
- http://www.ebay.nl/itm/2000mAh-High...221?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4cfb373ab5
- http://www.ebay.nl/itm/1-pcs-2000mA...548215?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27bfdb59f7
I have no experience with that exact battery, but most of these generic batteries from china have much lower capacity than the stock batteries. There is no way those are 2000mah, they are too small.
Get an Aker battery
I bought this, I don't know how to measure the actual capacity, but it feels good. Is better than the original.
I found these which are Samsung brand. I seen u already bought em but just in case ur still interested

I personally just have 2 stock batteries. I bought the second one cheap on amazon/ebay. Can't remember. I might try one of these soon though, because the stock batteries don't do so well for me.

I know it says for use with S1 versions as well, but I believe this to be miss information since the S1 an S2 have different connection for battery.

It says "Designed for SAMSUNG", the capital A in Samsung has a crossbar (which the real Samsung logo doesn't use), and it has the web address for Chichitec. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's not an OEM battery. :laugh:
I just got the gold battery from eBay. 2430MAH along with the battery charger for charging the battery externally. It was about $8.50 and comes within a week. Just search i9000 gold battery. I'm pretty sure I've got it calibrated. With light use I get up to 13 hours so far and up to 10 hours approximately with heavier use. Amazing buy so far

It usually takes a while for spare parts and batteries to show up. Your best bet is probably to check if any other phone uses the exact same battery.

the battery in the GN has the nfc reader built-in. I can't think of another handset that has a battery with a built in nfc reader, so it looks like people will need to wait for a GN specific battery.

Expansys have an official battery, item listing does state "please note: temporary picture"
They do list the right capacity for the battery, and I would've expected £30 for it considering it has the NFC aerial built in also.

not really a great price considered that with 40$ you can buy this:

Here is the buying link:

BTW, it seems batteries of this brand are gaining much popularity.
I'm confused...why is this better than the stock battery? It appears to be rated for less juice and it doesn't have NFC.

usually it has more than stock, and the battery time is about equivalent to stock for about 1/3 of the price, that's probably why people like it.

Because with the same battery technology there isn't a way to increase the capacity by that much without compromising the size.. otherwise manufacturers like Samsung would have put that into the stock device.
Probably, but probably not ... if that will increase the weight, or price for example.

Indeed. The weight is much higher and this battery doesn't have NFC. And at the end we are talking about an increase in capacity of only 30%.
we do celebrate Christmas in Hong Kong, but what the eBay page showing the item location is in mainland China, and no they don't celebrate Christmas. but I still wouldn't recommend it, as someone has said, they often exagerate the capacity or they die after 30 cycles, not to mention you could lose a limb or two.

i have one couple weeks old i bought the extended one i have the back cover too let me know
shimshop the ebay seller, that sells the genuine samsung extended batteries, has both the regular battery and the regular battery door, but it is just not listed, you can send them a message from your ebay account saying you want the regular oem battery not the extended one, usually they respond very quickly and are accomodating.

I know you mentioned Amazon, but I wanted to give you an exact link to the product I bought. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120832462058&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160 I really like this product, it only adds a tiny bit to the overall size and adds about an hour of heavy usage. If you are going to be using it non stop I'd recommend figuring out how long the current battery you use lasts under normal circumstances then approximate how big of a battery you would need from there.

The NFC chip is located in your phone. The only thing on your battery is an antenna. As to the original poster: I've had this battery ever since they started selling and it's totally legit.

Yeah, most such ebay listingsa are fake / not genuine / ripoffs. If you're willing to spend that much, why not buy from Samsung directly?

As far as I know, shimshop is a good ebay seller to get phone parts/accesories from.

I ordered a battery from each of these sellers. I ordered the one from eXpansys on June 29th and it still has not shipped. I ordered from shimshop on July 6th and I received an email stating it will ship Monday, July 9th. The shipping might take longer from shimshop, but at least he ships quickly!
