Using tethering for my ipad 2 wifi and downloading bt using ttorrent regularly. stock battery can't last me a day. This one can last me full day with around 15% left.
Also got a galaxy nexus battery rated at 2050mAh
Can you comment on the 2050 MAh battery? Does it fit with the stock back cover? Doesn't really seem legit as the OEM extended requires a different back cover.
Might be worth the risk checking it out for $15...
You can use original cover with the 2050mAh battery from what i tried here
How about NFC?

NFC is unavailable for all third party batteries as far as I'm aware
Unless the third-party in question chooses to equip their batteries with a suitable aerial.
As this is the first thread I'm aware of featuring this particular brand of battery, it's worth asking.
can u tell us if the 2050mah worths the stock battery or if its better?
Nice Find! Ordered, seems like our phone might finally function as a replacement for a handheld GPS (Garmin, Magellan etc...)
I would love to hear your thoughts on the 2050mAh battery. It seems like a lot of these aftermarket batteries don't do any better than the stock battery even with the higher charge capacity.

I am getting the 2050mAH batteries on Monday and will test it out.
Any updates?
bump for updates pls
it's running quite well. I'm getting around 20% power left on a full day of internet / chatting / a family guy and simpsons video / 30 mins tethering. This thing is a beast compare to the original battery!
such things are REALLY ugly. But I understand why we need it.
So the question is, why there can't be something as slim as Razr MAXX's 3300mah battery? ...
In the past I thought it is technological impossible to produce the slim extended battery like Maxx's, until I see how Razr Maxx works.
It is thicker than Original Razr, but it is so much better in design with giant battery.

Think it has something to do with the fact that it isn't removable, but I may be wrong.
Do they make these for the LTE variant? Seidio has a 3850 battery but it costs almost $70 and this is only $20!
The 2050mah i am getting around 1 and half hour more than usual compare to stock.

I've checked several posts here, but no one seems to be talking about the best SLIM EVO battery. I don't want a bulky phone, I just want a high quality Lithium Polymer (or better?) battery that is better than the OEM.
A battery that fits with the regular cover..? Haven't seen many threads about it.. well you know except the 20 that I forgot about
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on Android OS. We now have CyanogenMod.
Yeah, just a battery that fits with the regular cover. I found one thread talking about aftermarkets but they were referring to some cheap-o batteries that were actually worse than the OEM.
I got some EBay "2000mah" batteries and they definately last longer than the OEM battery but it is getting old. Theyblast AT LEAST as long as my used OEM battery, and some other cheapo ones I got off eBay are terrible (half the life of stock while claiming 1500mah).
You get what you pay for though, I would just buy OEM HTC batteries if I were you.

this has been discussed in a ton of threads to death. it's mine and many others belief that there is no better battery that is the stock size then the actual stock battery. this has been verified with testing at batteryboss.org. now a bunch of people will chime in and say this such and such works better for me, and maybe it does because they want to believe it does. watch what happens when you give kids near beer and tell them its real, they will act drunk. i've seen this happen with my own eyes. if there was a longer lasting battery that could be made in the same form factor, htc would surely release it with the phone. if you really want more battery life your going to have to go bigger, and in that case i would recommend the yoobao over anything else thats out right now. trident is releasing a battery and case in the next 2 weeks that could be promising.. remains to be seen.
I know what you're talking about bro. Droid X has one of those. When I bought my extended battery, he of course shows off his droid x extended battery....

I see where your coming, i wish evo had one. Unfortunately i haven't seen one... Just big bulky ones.
Just get the bigger, extended battery. Not only do you get longer life, but the phone also becomes a blunt weapon. How can you logically turn that down?
Non that I have seen only one is that 2000 slim extended your talking about. There are also fake battery on eBay that someone put two 1500 mha batterys together kinda dangerous.
I bought this type (not same seller, but same battery and similar charger). It works fantastically with the HTC SBC kernal, I get a solid 20 hours out of it with 3g on all day, listening to music for 2 hours, playing games intermittently throughout the day, and doing a lot of web browsing. I paid $16 total, so this is a similar deal.

So, we all know the CDMA GNEX takes a beating with LTE. but its worth it.
I always stock up on the batteries. did so on every nexus, with wall chargers, never used my usb, very great hot swapping.
Welllll.......my brother who has a TMOBILE GALAXY S 2 was charging his phone one day and i popped open the battery just so see the battery size comparison, it was insanely similar.
So i put the Gnex battery in the battery charger he has. SUCCESS....charges it.
Then i put HIS battery in my Gnex (sounds gross)
IT WORKS!
so this can be a great add on in terms of purchasing... IT HAS AN NFC CHIP IN IT GUYS..and I CONFIRMED IT WORKS. used my gnex with my gf nexus s and beamed one another.
here is one great! package...charger and battery (1850mah)

You can get the exact same charger thats made for the Nexus which also includes a standard OEM battery for like $30. I got 2 for 28 each at smartphonepedia.

Not sure why this is a big deal? The only batteries you'll be able to use are ones that are the same size as the Galaxy Nexus' default battery, because anything larger will require a larger back cover... which you wouldn't get with it.

Not true. The 2100 mAh extended battery does come with a different cover, but the old one can still be used.
I ordered the GSM version so I'm good.
Ugh jack ass...they fit. So your 'i don't know why this is a big deal quote, is absolutely idiotic
As I said. I tried it. It works. Same size and everything.

Fact is. This IS good news as the demand for the sg2 will come down faster than the gnex.
I did the same for the nexus s buying batteries for an older Samsung phone...for $9. With the help of a user from xda last year

Galaxy Nexus battery;
3.7V - 6.85Wh
Galaxy S II battery;
3.7V 6.66Wh (or 6.11Wh , depending on battery)
so yes it'll work, just since the 'Wh(Watt-hour)' is slightly less, it'll die.. well, "slightly" faster.
if you're going to bother doing that though how about try this battery out:

and I'm a jackass why?
I'm simply pointing out that this isn't a big deal because batteries made specifically for the Galaxy Nexus LTE are readily available... its not like they're not and the only way to get extra batteries is to use a SGSII version. And anything higher capacity (for example a 3500mAh version) would require a specialized back plate for the Galaxy Nexus anyways. So having a SGSII battery with no back plate is useless.
If you're buying authentic Samsung batteries either way (SGSII or GN) you're hardly saving money. Just buy the real GN battery...

i personally can't justify buying a so-called 'extended battery' that's only 250mAh more then the stock. i'm used to extended batteries being nearly double that of stock(and what i expect from one). it's not about money though as when i had my thunderbolt i bought the mugen 4500mAh battery for it and that thing was nearly $120 at the time.
for now i'm holding off until a proper extended comes out and in the meantime, if i'm running low on juice i have this portable battery pack to plug in to it:

That isn't an extended battery, just a official replacement battery at a decent price (like the OP was looking for).
This belongs in the accessories forum. The name calling belongs nowhere.
Has anyone seen John Connor?

4150mAh? That is more than my laptop's battery. I would love to see what kind of runtimes you get with that beast
Wow! Thanks for the heads up on this. Ordering one of each.
Would love to hear the results on the slim battery - wonder if it really reads higher than the stock 2500mah battery.
These seem awfully cheap. Is QCell a reputable manufacturer of batteries?
omg it looks so ugly and for sure it will burn your galaxy note... have fun ^^
Waiting eagerly for reviews of both ...
Somewhat dubious at that price though
Can you please post some picture with the extended battery and cover attached to the Note
Here's pretty accurate picture

Voltage * capacity = total power
Your laptop battery is around ~15V, which is 4 to 5 times higher than the battery in the note.
the lack of the polarity signs on top, and the price , and the fact that they are chinese batterys http.. etc etc ..superexporter.com/suppliers/quality111699398794775225-ningbo_qcel_battery_co_ltdDOThtml (can´t post links) makes me believe that they are just like all the others chinese fakes in ebay, worth the buy .. but don´t be expecting big mah numbers.. in fact don´t even expect 80 % of the mah of stock battery

Agreed. I get about 50% of 'stated' mAh on my Chinese batteries. Still a good buy, don't get me wrong, but I am going to pay the extra $15 to get a stock battery now.
Did the 2800 give you more time or its fake?
isn't those chinese batteries harmful for the device .... and can any one post an image for the battery usage

4150mAh @ 3.7 volts though. I bet your laptop battery runs closer to 15 volts! THe more important figure is how many watt/hr's the battery can supply.
4150mAh @ 3.7v = 15.2625 watt/hr (4.125*3.7)
4150mAh @ 15v = 61.875 watt/hr (4.125*15)
anyone with the test reports of the same
not worth it.
I bought one of each and the slim one did not even last a day. And the thick one lasted exactly a day. I was surfing the net for about one hour constantly texting maybe a 2hr phn call total. And some games like temple run and asphalt. I still recommend the mugen 3400mah this lasted me a day and a half doing the same things.

Hello,
I've had terrible battery life on my GSII for the longest time now. I've tried countless ROMs, Kernels, Modems, combinations and nothing has worked. At this point I'm fairly convinced it's a hardware issue. The cheapest/easiest route is to replace my battery. I know the Anker 1900 mah comes well recommended, but has anyone tried their 1750 mah model?
Here's the one I'm looking at specifically:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Anker-Batte...726270?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3371b0867e
I'm hoping it's the "1900 mah" battery that's gotten so many good reviews, but properly labelled this time around. Any thoughts? Anyone have this battery?
Thanks!
I have the anker 1900mah. It is a tight fit. I didnt have any problems with it but case/cover extended battery are a more practical way to go.
Just buy a case/cover battery from ebay ... it will add another 2200mAh to your existing battery.. .while it is bulkier, it is not that unuseable. It will keep your phone powered for at least 8 hours under intense usage.... (a lot more hours if you do not much)... When the case battery is drained down, you can easily remove it and have your old phone back.
But to extend the life of your battery on your phone, you are better off running it down to 40% before attaching the extended case battery. The case battery will automatically charge your phone battery back to 100%, while it gets drained down. And itself will run out first. This way you minimize the time spent with the bulk.
I'm going to go ahead and order the 1750 mah later today. Once they come in I'll let you know how they perform!

how is your experience with your new Anker 1900 mah?
I've been using the Anker 1900aMh for about a year, got two & a charger for £15 from Amazon. I highly recommend them, last longer than original & having a spare in the pocket makes it certain I NEVER RUN OUT of gas

can you use the 1750 or the 1900 with the original cover?
i have the 2000 version from samsung. but you need a little bit bigger case (included) their.

The 1900 mah is supposed to be a tight fit with the standard battery cover. My 1750 mah batteries should be coming in today so we'll see how they fit.

I experienced Anker batteries to have drop down in power during time.
For 2 months it was fine.. but after i starting loosing power.. according to Battery Monitor Anker after 4 months of use lost 34% of its max power...
If you drain your battery down too much or leave it empty uncharged, that can happen

Recently I was contacted by LapTopMate.com and asked if I wanted to test one of the new ANKER extended batteries for the GS3. As someone who has used them for quite a while in other phones I said yes.
It arrived today and now I am charging it. Will do comparison on ON SCREEN time with the Standard battery.
Thanks ANKER!!

I just saw this battery on Ebay. The price is about 25 US Dollar. I am very interested in your results!
yea. doe the 100 mha more make that much of a diff?
NFC? does that work?
I don't see any reference to NFC on the packaging. But for a spare battery, it really doesn't matter. (I've never used NFC anyway.)
I'm hoping I get about 30 more minutes of screen time out of it. Time shall tell.
Anker batteries for the Galaxy s3 doesnt have NFC, yet!
i get about 2 hours of extra battery life with this battery.
So far so good at 50%.
Nice.any good links to vendors for this battery,I would like nav but I'm not using it yet anyway.

I've been using this battery for about a week now and it's a GREAT battery (minus not having nfc). For $8.99 on Amazon its an absolute steal and it holds a charge great.
For $9 you can't pass it up.

Yes it does.
No NFC though.
I got a little over 7 hours of on screen time at 1%. Failed to get a screen capture though.
Will run it through a second cycle to see how that one goes.
Bought 2 for 16$ on Ebay. Probably only need 1, but I may just sell the extra off on craigs or something.
They'll jack up the price once word gets spread out anyway.
I too was contacted by laptop mate and received a trial Anker 2300mAh battery for my Galaxy S III.
I already own two Hyperion batteries, and compared to those, my Anker battery is fantastic! While I would estimate that the Hyperion battery gets around 60-70% of what my stock battery gets, my Anker battery gets battery life on par (if not slightly better) than my stock battery.
However, I have a couple of gripes with it... One of the plastic "tabs" that separate each of the 4 battery terminals broke off on one end. This makes it so that I have to be sure to make the plastic tab straight so that I can charge the battery while it's in my phone. Otherwise, it switches very rapidly between "charging" and "battery disconnected" (though it remains powered on). I'm not too sure how that happened, but that may have been when I was putting it on/taking it off of my Hyperion battery charger. Another gripe is that it doesn't have NFC. Then again I haven't even found an opportunity for me to use NFC besides the Paypass CC terminals (and Google wallet doesn't work on Verizon, so that's bunk anyway.)
I would definitely recommend the Anker battery, especially if they add NFC in the future. It gets great battery life on par with the stock Samsung Battery at a much lower cost, and if you can take one or two minor manufacturing defects (that are easily fixed) on the battery terminals, then there's no reason not to pick one up in my mind.
