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...

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.

Can you provide a link? I can't seem to find such a thing. . .
Also, anyone spotted a 1650mah battery? I wanna buy one.
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.

Just went to T-Mobile said battery wasn't holding charge and they swapped it for a 1650 yay me

What do you mean "No extended door" - you don't have one or you don't need one or it didn't come with one or w hat?

GS3 Extended Battery (4600 mAh)

Would anyone consider getting this battery? It'll more than double your battery life. Problem is how big is it and can you find a case/battery door that'll fit. And do you even need it considering you can get a good 24 hours out of it already. Thoughts?

that one is 4300mah and look how fat that case is

May be good
I'm not so sure the price is fare, but this is the only extended battery that I've seen with a voltage output the same as stock at 3.8v. All the others that I've seen are at 3.7v. Not even sure if it REALLY even matters that much. But I would feel better with my replacement battery being the same as stock. Just my opinion.

Isn't the OEM battery 2100Mh? Is it really that much better?

Look up my testing. I repeatedly getting 10% more but you have to follow the instruction that comes with the battery.

I've tried aftermarket batteries of that small of difference, I personally believe samsung makes their stock batteries of higher quality than the 10$ dollar ankers or the likes therof. Therefore, I think its a wash as far as daily phone hours of usage. But I'm pretty confident the cheap aftermarkets won't last as long in the long run. I think the best option is just get a replacement battery, have it charging all day, use your phone to your hearts content, no extra bulk. Then at around 7 or 8 when its getting low if you had a big usage day, pop out the battery, put in the new one. We should be grateful as g3 users that we have this option eh.

Does the anker have nfc?

Even if Anker claims 2200, it's true rating is under 2050. Stick to stock.

Polarcell 2400mAh
great quality. costs 13€ in germany, should be around 15$ - but im not sure if its availabe in the us
does not have nfc, but according to some posts in a german forum, there will be a polarcell battery with nfc in the near future.

Check this out, a 1700mah battery from a store with a good reputation and no back door required for battery (Li-ion) :
* mugen-power-batteries[DOT]com/mugen-power-1700mah-extended-battery-for-sony-ericsson-xperia-arc-lt15i-docomo-so-01c.html
* replace the [DOT] with a dot ; )
(They also sell a 3200mAh, but you have to put a big backdoor on the back of your phone for it to fit!)

thanks. any review on how much does an increase of 200mah will last how much long? i suppose stock one is rated at 1500mah right?

I read somewhere that 1500mah is hard coded into the kernel, so any battery with more than 1500mah capacity would give false readings on juice left, unless you're using a custom kernel. True or not?

[Q] Where can I find Samsung 2000 mAh battery in India?

Hi All,
I am unable to find "Samsung 2000 mAh original battery with back cover"i.e.EB-K1A2EBEGSTD in India. Any attempts to search the product online leads me to links which are dead or have the product as out of stock. There was just one link which was selling it but it was from UK and the overall expense was 42 pounds which is more than 3k in INR. I do not think the original product costs that much.
Tried to search on XDA with no success.
Any information on shops/dealers/online links would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I have read here on xda that usually its not of 3500mah, it's much lesser. To top that, it makes the phone quite bulky. So the optimum limit I found was 2000mah with extended back panel which doesn't screw up s2's looks

I was looking for EB-K1A2EBEGSTD and you are mentioning a different model number.
Also, the international delivery will cost me 1/3rd of the overall expense, which I wanted to avoid.
Thanks for your response anyways.

nice

Found a link on ebay.
http://www.ebay.in/itm/Samsung-Gala...?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item43b902f8b3
This one costs 4150 INR approx which is way above my range for a battery. I am still looking for the best deal but posting this link for the people who are looking for one.

Had to settle with a chinese 3500 mah battery. it has made my s2 lose its sex appeal.
few hours and its running fine. hope it actually is 3500 mah and it doesnt explode.

As it is Chinese battery I don't expect it to be real 3500 mah, but even if it's turned out to be 2500+, I will be really happy. After a full discharge and full charge I m using it first time. 15 hours and I am at 83% with not much of use, I guess almost an hr screen time.
Will report a proper usage after few days and few charge cycles.

This is where i bought it from. Unfortunately for me the prices have been dropped for this

using this Chinese battery for around six months, over time the battery backup becomes low, but still phone would work for all day on a full charge, I also got it from some ebay seller for 900 rs
