Seidio slim extended battery 2200 mah under development

- More capacity in the same form factor
- Fits in existing space so no replacement door is needed

So, basically a fancy replacement battery. Guess it will all come down to price. If it's only $5-$10 more than a standard replacement, I'd definitely get the slightly higher capacity pack.
I'd really be interested in a major capacity bump and a replacement door. Could give it a battery sized bulge, or an iphone 3gs (and earlier) style curved back.

i bet its not even really 2200mah and will not outlast the oem battery and will be more expensive if past batteries they release are an indication.

They did tests over on the captivate forum with crap ebay china batteries and even the Seidio batteries and they were ask worse than the oem despite having higher mah. The seidio actually just barely beat the $5 ebay one despite being like 17x more expensive.

be good to see but with a dock for everything they'd have to be real careful or they'll make a lot of people not care ^_^

you say that, but using basic electrical formulas for batteries, and the fact that the 1900mAhr battery can net me 36 hours on a charge. the extra 300mAhrs would give another 5.6 hours. That isn't insignificant.
of course that all assumes they can deliver on promises.

Its really impossible to do in the way batteries work

My experience with aftermarket batteries (for all kinds of devices) is that they rarely outlast the OEM batteries, no matter what mAh spec the manufacturer prints on the label. Most of them don't even last as long as the OEM batteries.
But hey, maybe these Seidio engineers have enabled cold fusion.

I just got 2 Motorola BH6X batteries on eBay for 12 bucks including shipping. I don't care about continuously charging batteries overnight, **** paying 50~65 bucks for a fancy battery that lasts 2 more hours. People should utilize eBay more instead of investing in gimmicks.

lol just wait a few months when your ebay batteries stop holding a charge and see if you still go back to ebay for batteries...and its not 2 more hours, oem batteries usually last 30-40% longer than ebay ones.

I've bought tons of batteries from eBay, they all worked perfectly. I guess I must be lucky. I don't know where you pulled those statistics from but whatever, everyone has different results. What works for one person clearly might not work for the other. To each his own.

Nexus One, OEM 1400mAh tested at 1357mAh
Nexus one, Seidio 3200mAh tested at 2691mAh
Nexus one, Seidio 1600mAh tested at 1305mAh --->not bad but this one is double the price of the oem
i never said ebay batteries dont work, they just dont work very well...even if you get lucky and get an ebay battery that close to the listed mah it will start loosing capacity withing a few month, they have fewer charging cycles than an oem battery. i used to buy ebay batteries for my phones and laptops but start to realized batteries are not something you want to go cheap on but im glad that they are working out so far for you.

Guess I just got lucky. Oh well, what works for someone might not work for other people. No biggie, sucks for the people who bought **** batteries.

Crazy 3800mAh battery - should I try my luck?

So I've seen a couple of eBay auctions for 3800mAh GNex batteries. I can't post the URLs here as links because I'm a too new here ( :-( ).
The price is right and the promise of 2x the rather modest battery life of the 1750mAh battery in my GSM GNex is hard to resist.
What does everyone think?

It will double the thickness of your Nexus, and has a cheap (and probably) non-ergonomic back cover.

I wouldn't it get as it has no NFC (Near Field Communication) antenna in it. Also, most of those cheap Ebay batteries are not rated as advertised.

Try it and get back to us. I'm trying the 2300 and 1900 mah GSM cheapo batteries from ebay and getting back to the community afterwards

Yes - that's one of them. Do a search for i9250 3800 and you'll be able to find the other.
Admittedly the back case doesn't look as nice as the stock one, but what I'm really worried about is my phone exploding in my pocket and injuring me. Or at least destroying my $600 phone.

This manufacturer has had a lot of similar units for various phone models.
I had been using a version for the Samsung Infuse 4G with no issues for 4 months or so, so I would expect the same for the Galaxy Nexus variant.
One thing to keep in mind however: these batteries DO NOT have the NFC Antenna in them, so you will not be able to use Google Wallet or the Android Beam options.

These batteries are actually are from a Droid Charge. I read it one galaxy nexus and i have tested it myself. There are some Droid Charge 3800mAh battery with good reviews you. But you still will need a back cover and will have NFC.

$11.89 for cover & battery seems fair for 3,800 mAh:

Just be aware that all batteries are not created equal, especially from china. Surefire batteries, specifically 18950 batteries used in high end flashlights. They just put a new shrinkwrap and recharge old batteries. Good or bad, it dont matter at least they look new. They advertise 3000mah, youd be lucky to get 2 of 10 that are 2000mah.

Well, given the price, I'd have to say it's going to suck, but then again - it's not that much money to try it - if you really need something that huge.
I would try it, but I'd rather wait for a package that comes with a case. In the end it's a $725 device that I don't want ding'd.

After trying a lot of these batteries on most of my phones over the years, I say that if it aint sold by the phone manufacturers, save your time and money.

I think you're thinking of 18650 batteries. Flashlight forums usually rate the surefires rather well compared to the others.

I'd say give it a try. those are generics. back in my multiple battery craziness days, i had 2 of those same generics for my Thunderbolt. they were ok.. at least they actually worked anyway. didn't use them long enough though to comment on longevity.

Yeah, I know what you mean about multiple battery craziness lol. I have two generic batteries for my Thunderbolt AND a huge Seidio extended battery along with my OEM. The generics work just as well as the OEM.

Generally any battery for your smart phone under $40.00 probably isn't rated at what it says it is. I've managed a fairly good collection over the years. You definitely get what you pay for when it comes to them.

verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry interested! let us know

Also found it at Amazon UK for the GSM version:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/QCell-Samsung-3850mAh-Extended-Battery/dp/B006SKHIKG/
Might end up buying one. ¿Any cases that will fit it?

Great find! I've searched daily for one of these. Thanks very much for sharing. I need one for backcountry GPS use and changing out small batteries always screws with settings. For $20 with cover and Prime, I'm jumping on it!

Just a quick warning that these are not NFC compatible. Personally, I don't use it, but it may be important to others.

Battery came very quick, very fast delivery and used for one day
I'm extremely impress with the performance of this battery. Typically on an average day, I only get at maximum 4 hours of battery life thanks to the 4G connection, now I can go on for a whole day without looking for a charger! will continue to post results as I use this more
Also will like to comment on the back cover. It has the Hyperskin texture just like the original case. Makes the phone just as grippy as the original case, the cover also provides an ergonomic contour for holding the phone properly. With the original cover I find it a little bit too thin to hold. Along with the hyperskin texture, this thing does not slip at all.
Overall excellent build quality and good lasting battery. This will be my main battery going forward

I don't trust Chinese batteries because of an experience I had with a Chinese battery I had for my DX2.
I will stick with my expensive Seidio batteries from now on. lol

seidio is like 4 times the price of this battery. I tried seidio before and although they are good, i find phones obsolete too quickly to warrant on an expensive battery with similar increase of batt life

At that price it's hard not to pass up. There are very few times I need such battery life but tournament weekends and occasional outings for events definitely would warrant this.

Just ordered one for flights with an external charger. Hopefully everything works out well.

Gonna give the Anker Multi-Purpose Universal Rapid Cell phone Battery Charger for Samsung: Galaxy Nexus one a try. Can't post a link for amazon since I don't have enough post.

Btw, just a heads up to you all.
If you look at all the posts of the OP, he seems like he is banging the drum for QCell batteries.
Just a FYI.

OP probably is affiliated with QCell in some way.

Battery vs Stock vs Extended Verizon
I'm worried that the cheaper cells used won't hold their charge after xxx charges. It happens all too often. I think all of us have had this happen to them on one phone or another. At that point might as well buy overpriced Seidio.

That picture makes it appear that the extended battery nearly doubles the thickness of the phone. I'm using the Sansung extended battery and while it adds a nicely needed "heft" to the phone that keeps it from feeling too cheap, it doesn't add a lot of thickness.

I ordered a GSM one from Amazon UK, there's not much price difference with the chinese ones on eBay and, although the battery might probably come from the same or similar place, the case seems nicer and if anything goes wrong I'd rather ***** Amazon customer service than some random eBay seller.
Will keep you informed, although I don't have the official extended battery to compare with.

I just got mine in today. Definitely is thicker and kind of looks like the seidio extended battery but it actually matches the color and texture of the original battery. I am coming from the verizon extended battery and am charging up the new one as I type this so I'll report back after I use it a bit

Why Mugen Power Batteries very expensive ?

I cant understand guys. Look this :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2X-EXTENDED...ccessories&hash=item231c5250d5#ht_1701wt_1396
This one is includes 2 battery and price is 20 $.
but look this too:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mugen-Power...ccessories&hash=item519c5cdeb4#ht_3119wt_1396
this one is mugen power. Includes 1 battery and its 88 $
why ??

It could be because anything that ships out of Hong Kong or any other part of China is super cheap, as opposed to the Mugen Power battery being shipped out of the United States.

Is there any performance difference between this two batteries ?

I can't say, personally, whether there is or isn't. I have a Mugen Power battery (won in a contest), and I can confirm that it lasts much, much longer than a stock battery. I would assume the two batteries, being the same capacity, would behave very similarly. The only thing that would cause them to work differently would be the quality of the products, themselves.

It's impossible because protective cases are only meant for stock phone(as in w/o extended back cover). You could use a pouch though, but that's not what you want right?

Extended Batteries... Mugen vs Original Samsung

I am looking to keep my white GSM Samsung Galaxy Nexus naked as the bulk is just too much, and I need as much comfort in my hand as possible...
That being said: does anyone want to chime in on how the Mugen extended battery is performing compared to stock and/or the original Samsung /w battery door?
I have the original samsung extended battery, but no white door to put on...
Thanks guys.

One thing to note if you are buying a replacement battery... the NFC antenna is built into the battery. If this is a feature you use, make sure your new battery has it.

I am waiting for my 4000mah mugen battery including nfc. But would also love the pogo car dock.. Too bad in does not fit anymore with the New battery..

Both will give you about 80% of the capacity they put on the label. Everyone else will give you much less than that, 70% tops, and often half or less.

I think these cheapo $10 3800 extended batteries on ebay are pretty good if you come in with the right expectations.
Yes, we know they aren't 3800, and are closer to 3000, but that still gets you about 1000mah more than the stock battery.
Yes, they lose their capacity over time more quickly than a genuine battery, but you should treat these types of batteries as disposable.
Buy one for $10, use it for 6 months and then buy another one.

The only thing that keeps me away from buying them is that batteries, in a general way, are pretty dangerous for the environment, specially cheap ones. And I wouldn't like to make that kind of waste buying several batteries.

using Seidio Innocell 3500mAh extended batter for my GNexus (GSM) for a month right now
and i really love it
it can go for 6+ hours screen on time with wifi on and 3g and automatic brightness
this result was after only one charging cycle i posted on my instgram
it adds a little thickness but not that much, actually you won't notice any difference while holding it and using it with one hand
the only downside is the back cover, I don't know what its called in English , but the tips thats go in the phone body can easily be broken
( look at the image i circled the thing as an example - the photo not mine )

That's a Samsung battery. He said he is using Seidio. He used that picture to illustrate a point in his post.

here is a new results:

Could I trouble someone to measure the thickness of the Seidio 3500 for GSM? Looking to get one, but want to see if I can do a little modding to fit it in a case without using that unsightly back door. From the comparison pic above, it seems to be a hair over double the thickness of stock battery. Correct?
