Thank you. Waiting for ur review now before I place my order for one.

On a side note, the battery physically feels heavier. Not sure if it's in my head or not bit we'll see.

"Thank god for replaceable batteries"

what kind of run time are you getting compared to your previous battery? Can you do some tests to compare whether or not its just a fake label?

Im really starting to consider buying two of these with a wall charger. At first I was all about the seidio 3000mah at $70 but I cant justify spending $70 on a battery, granted they are a reputable company. At $10 per this seems to make more sense.

He is doing the tests, he is running down its shipping charge. What's the deal with the business class tag?
"Thank god for replaceable batteries"

I bought the pack of 2 batteries and a charger for $7. It works great, only issue is that I can't charge the non-OEM batteries past 100% on the phone or it will shut off.

i have bought sony X1 and cappy imitations battery, it doesnt last long as original oem battery. dont believe everything you see!

"Thank god for replaceable batteries"

7:25am - Phone powered on after full night charge with the phone off. Should be using a good amount of wifi today. Battery voltage says 4163mV.
I'm running oc'd 1200mhz & uv settings 100x5 75 with Perception" Creepy Eye" wallpaper.
Sent from my Samsung Captivate running Perception Build 4

So Ive made it down to 9% battery, but its been at that level for the past hour and half. Used wifi heavily today and watched a few youtube videos, played a few games and been on the internet most of the day. Battey says 3686mV. Local time is 5:45pm.
I think another full charge and battery reset should show longer run times. Will report tomorrow. Going to also try to find a scale this weekend.

T-Mobile USA site has that battery charger and extra battery with it for $49. I bought one and couldn't be happier.
That hdmi cable you may have to wait for unless you get an off brand though.

Edit:
Crap, just noticed it's for the 1650, but the picture is of an 1850 mah.

i still think the offer on ebay for $40 for the Docking+1850 NFC battery is way better than buying the battery by itself
i got 2 of those
1 for home , and another for the office
and as usual i always carry 2 extra battery pack with me
because i know i can burn through 1 really fast, on my down time
in the doctor office waiting room, i can easily burn the battery down to 30% in 3 hours
that's on the Nexus S and I9000, so i'm expecting similar performance on the SGS2

I just got 2 extra OEM batteries the other day, I've got to say it's pretty sweet to turn up the screen brightness and not worry about battery life.

a bit off topic but yeah... i don't even know what's the point of having an Appointment! with the Doctor, if you arrive on time or even early, and you still need to wait an average of 2 hours give or take a few
so i really hate going to see a doctor unless i'm in dying needs for some prescription medicine
like what's the point of having an "appointment" if it's like a walk-in clinic?

nope, it barely holds the phone on it's own. I felt like I had to force the phone in it and felt it was gonna scratch the Bezel with continued use. I wouldn't buy it again after owning it already.

on a Sunday afternoon. Not a big deal, but a nice little surprise I forgot about. The pocket charger has an in and out port too so you can put it inline with your phone while charging. The backing is slick (as in slippery'ish, not cool) to I'm just going to stick on my wife's since she uses a case anyways. Just thought I'd share
*Interestingly enough, I went to that QR code or whatever it's called on the back of the cover and it's to a Korean website with accessories for the Galaxy Note.

Damn that is one sexy battery door. I would love to have me one of those. Is that for the GSM model or the CDMA model?
I wish I had me one of those for my phone.

That would match the printed circuit board theme I use perfectly. Willing to sell? PM me.

there is no direct link, just search on http://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/ for SC-04D many will show up, and you need to use some sites like http://www.shoppingmalljapan.com/ to buy for you.

pm the op and ask him/her to buy for you, he/she lives in japan.

I'm not really interested in turning these around for a couple of $ profit each one. Its not worth the time. Subvertz, you asked first about the one I have so I PM'd you.
I'm not really impressed with the pattern on the battery cover, but if you guys like it, to each his own. Different tastes I suppose. I do like the little battery charger. My wife is going to keep that in her purse as she invariably forgets to charge her phone. I'm sure it will come in very handy.

would be bad ass to have this for LTE with extended batt :|

Two Extended Battery Cases

Guys and Gals,
I found two extended battery cases, currently sold only through Hong Kong distributors, which really tickled my pink ...
Here's the first: supplemental 3200mAh battery built-into an integrated back with front flap and metal kickstand.

Here's the second: supplemental 2600mAh battery built-into an integrated case with front flap and metal kickstand.
I ordered the second one and should have it by the middle of next week.
The primary difference between the two seems to be the connection between the phone and the battery (the first is constant, the second is on-demand) and the increased side/corner protection offered by the second case.
They are both available on eBay ... I'll let everyone know how my purchase experience goes.

I would be curious to know if it replaces the back and if that little silver button in the lower right is a power switch. I might end up getting one of these, too ...

but isn't this will make your OEM batter die faster?
and does still able to do nfc and you know those s3 sharing photos stuff?

To you first question:
No, because it looks like both battery cases have a discrete power button -- which means your primary battery only gets 'recharged' when you activate the secondary battery. I have heard that constant-on secondary batteries cause this problem, though ...
To you second question:
I'm not sure if the case enclosure or size would inhibit either of these. I can try when the case arrives and report back ...

I too am curious as to whether NFC still works with those cases since a battery with metal will be obstructing the NFC chip in the OEM battery

No link? Really?

Hmm, it's an interesting alternative to something like this http://www.amazon.com/SlimTalk-Micro-USB-Flashlight-Smartphones-Sensation/dp/B0054U6CEE/
Might be something nice to use on a flight so you can game or watch a movie and still have battery left to call people when you land

Took like 1 second to find those...

I just looked at a bunch of these ebay. For one thing they spelled Samsung wrong on the rear cover Sanmsung ha!
They also all seem to have a max charge rate of 500mA, which means if you are really pushing your phone (nav, videos, etc) the battery won't be a to keep up with the discharge rate.
Seems like a waste of money unless something higher quality comes along.

Anyone have experience with this one:

Given the state of grammar and spelling today, this seems apropos.
Since you're not in a position to accurately assess quality, I will report back.

It happens... Same thing happened with the G2, Z, and a few other devices. Verizon had a BOGO after the initial release of the M8. The case isn't the one with charging and it's a snap on(doesn't replace the back).

First off... Calm down... Secondly. Try calling Customer Care and CALMLY tell them the situation. They might send you one (can't guarantee it) if you just bought it recently....
