Hey guys browseing Amazon or GS2 accessories and I came across the Anker 1900mAh battery.
Now ive had the Anker 1900 on the Sensation and its legit a beast of a battery with extra juice, anyone used this for the GS2?
why not just wait a few weeks and buy the proper 2000mah battery??
iam sure samsung would have made a battery this size if possible rather then build extra back covers due to the 2000mah battery they have designed
basically i dont think anker could squeeze another 300mah into the battery at no extra size , its probably not what it says it is and i would go the official route , i have found all these cheap batterys to be useless in my times of owning mobile phones
to sum it up just buy the offical 2000mah battery from samsung or the bigger one from mugen if you want better battery life
look for anker 2300maH on ebay for $12-14 . buy it and make a review
tempted!
im very tempted. amazon uk has an offer for 2 and dockcharger and travel charger for £13. Even if its 80% of original battery i would be happy. But seems like a new release..not 1 review...
I would get the official samsung one but i have the perfect a leather, carbon fibre cases. would it fit in there? i don;t know...will i find an equivalent case that fits it...i don't no. If only if they had a demo version with new battery in a highstreet store i could try putting my case on,
ohh this make has had some reviews from same phone and different phones
im not advertising lol, just discussing reviews

probably not even half that capacity..
I try the anker battery and doesnt work for me. That battery is bad quality because I charged and when the phone was in 5% the screen staring flashing. The phone reboot when is in 5%. I return the battery and they gave me a refund.

Eug measured the capacity one of the spider foot batteries as 2413 mAh.
Even though it is well under the stated rating there is nothing that touches it for value. USD $10 for a 2413 mAh battery is a fantastic deal.

Go on expansys if you are in the UK...they have them for sale on their website
I ordered an anker battery set. should be here in one or two days will report back
I ordered it, nothing to complain but follow my feeling its not like 1900mha... same as 1650mha... one more thing universal usb travel charge need 8h to full charge( output 350mha+-50mha)
>>> with me, im using USB cable + universal usb travel and ..... im smell something from cable so i never do it again

yes, i do but its my opinion
My experience will be subjective, but I've been using 1900mah Anker batteries for the last 2 weeks. They are OK. With original battery I get 12-13 hours when everything ON! With Anker approximately 16-17 hours.
is 3500 mah battery better than 1900 mah ? increasing number of mah is better or decreasing ?

More mAh is better. Just be aware that the 3500 mAh spider foot battery is actually about 2400 mAh. At $10 that's not really a problem though...

I want the 2300mah battery cause it sounds more appealing but idk cause that battery is the same size as the factory 1750mah yet its able to give 5x the more battery without enlarging the battery and no back cover. Sounds fake, but idk, What do you guys think?
I personally wouldn't get one unless it supported NFC.

1750 to 2300 in the same form factor?
I bought the LTE extended battery and of course there's a noticeable increase in size, needing the different cover. But is a 550 mAh increase possible in the same size?

the NFC chip is inside the battery. so the battery has to be official, or at least have NFC chip inside in order for NFC to work.
I wouldn't get the 2350 one, most likely its a cheap knockoff no where near capacity that high. probably lower than the stock battery. Labels are easy to print.

You are better off buying a stock replacement battery to keep around than to buy cheap any other batteries, no matter the mAH rating advertised.
the extended batteries for the Nexus are bullsh**. normally, an extended battery is at least/close to double the mAh as what the stock is. these 2100 & 2300 batteries are a joke.
just FYI, there are no antenna contacts in the battery door so even if you leave the door off you can still get a signal.
additionally, if you don't mind leaving it off & doing a slight mod, you can get a generic Droid Bionic 4000mAh battery for $12 online and use that instead. the Wh isn't quite as high but it's still 3.7V and will last much longer then even that 2300 one.

If it has more capacity than the stock battery, then its extended. There's no promise of a minimum extra amount of battery over stock to be considered an extended battery. Not sure why you're so up in arms about it. Give it a little time for 3rd parties to make larger extended batteries with fitting battery doors...

There's no way that's actually a 2300mAh battery. Don't buy that lol. If you think the 2000mAh battery is worth it you can go for it, but its only ~14% more capacity, so you can't expect drastic life improvements. As another poster said if you REALLY need extra life you're better off getting another stock battery and a wall charger to swap them.

i realize it's my opinion but it is disappointing considering that 'extended batteries' for practically every other phone out there are nearly double(sometimes even more so). i don't understand why they even bothered making a 2100 'extended' & not just included that as stock with the phone since it goes through battery so quickly. i have my fingers crossed that mugen or seidio will make a worthwhile extended.
Thanks guys, I decided I wont get neither. lol.. I'm pulling 10hr-16hrs on the Nexus anyway. Compare to my previous T-Mo S2 and i9100 S2 I was getting the same battery life. I will upgrade the battery but ill wait for the official Samsung battery when it hits Europe sometime next year.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I bought the extended battery for 25 dollars from Verizon and its pretty good, I get 2 days on my nexus with light use, full day with medium to heavy use.
now sure if the stock one was garbage to begin with.
I had a Mugen power batteries 1800mah extended battery for my sensation, thought it was a good battery
A friend of mine bought a 2450mah knock off battery from ebay and offered to Get one for me, I said the same as all of you, no thanks doubt it actually that size and I bet it wont last as long as my 'smaller' Mugen battery. So he bought me one to test.
At least on my sensation, the cheap battery was noticeably better than the Mugen (3 hours better)
So from that, I'm willing to try this knock off, considering I'm in Australia and have literally nothing I can use nfc on anyway

But one is MUCH cheaper than the other... Man, $100 on a battery is not something I'm willing to spend.
I've been using a generic ($10) 5000 mAh one last weekend, during a trip to the beach. It was enough to be sure to last all day even when using the phone a lot (maps, taking pictures, looking up adresses, reading, whatsapp...)
The one by Seidio is VERY good, it last double than the original as it is expected...
Thou shalt not defile the appearance of their note with an extended battery.
i purchased 2 of those batteries they sell as oem batteries instead of buying an extended battery. I love the shape , lightness and slimness of my sexy gnote so i couldnt bare to ruin it. So easy to carry the batteries around and replacing them is a piece of cake. You don't have to wait for the phone in plug to be fully charged as well. So u can buy a cheap charging device which is also very light and portable and leave the spare battery on charge when u are on the go with ur gnote. One of the replacement batteries do perform as great as the oem one that comes with the note itself but the other one sucks. With using problematic one i have weird random lines on my screen which i suspect is because of wrong voltage. I bought these batteries from two different sellers.
Sorry. God doesn't recommend on the battery.
Just jk. External or extra battery?

Thanks, as I'd personally like to see how the battery performs. I have heard of people purchasing larger batteries and have actually received worse results than the stock battery offers, which is rather odd in my opinion. But, from what I have read, Anker produce some quality products so I have high hopes for this battery. I'd ideally like an even larger battery, but then the added weight becomes ridiculous or pricing becomes too much for me to afford.
I've had Anker batteries for other devices and they've been ace, not got round to ordering one for the Note myself yet, but I will do.

I don't trust about other internal battery. I use external battery in other case. While my life battery is 20 hours in 3g.
I have the Mugen 5400 battery and I truly cannot fault it. More than double the capacity of stock and it shows in my daily usage. Build quality also to notch. Yes their prices are steep but you get what you pay for and their customer service is excellent.

I bought 2 for a total of $16 and they work great. I also bought a 3 dollar charger (800mah) that charges them in a about six hours. The ankers charge fine inthe phone an have all the attributes of the oem battery
I've been using Anker batteries for about 3 weeks now and they work great. They last just slightly longer than the stock battery and charge efficiently. I would recommend them to people that are always on the go and can't always get a place to charge their phones. I charge one battery by itself and one in the phone at night, and the next day I am able to swap when the first battery drains. Also there's a peace of mind with having a fully-charged battery always available.

Hi everybody,
I have been searching for this Anker battery on German Amazon, and I have found out that there is a 2800mah Anker battery for this phone. Stock size.
You can see the link here
It's not much more expensive, and if it really was a 2800mah battery than it would be great.
Does anyone know anything about it? Do you think it's just a 2700mah one with a fake sticker on it?
Let me know your thoughts.
I got the 2700mAH battery from Amazon. So far it has been slightly better capacity than the original and no problems. Good value at £7.99.
I want to buy an OEM battery for my gs3 so I can replace it when its out of battery. Could someone find a link to the actual one that you find in shipped devices? I dont want a knockoff or an extended battery. Thank you.
