Thanks - im asking specifically about this one

Which battery should I get?

I can either get a replacement battery, 2 of them + a charger for $25. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Anker-1900mA...ccessories&hash=item4ab3e5b7e8#ht_2690wt_1252
Or an external very portable battery 2600mAh for $25
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Anker-Colorf...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item7916fc4474
Or external battery (not as portable) 3600mAh for $25.
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Anker-Extern...ccessories&hash=item4cfeea48ef#ht_6381wt_1361
All the same price. I'm thinking of getting the colorful anker battery. I could charge the phone while both are in my pocket. Since it's more than one charge, I don't have to worry since I can easily charge the battery again.
Or I can get a single Anker battery for $18.

What do you guys think?

I recommend the 2 Anker batteries with charger because that's what I have and the batteries last the same or longer than stock. Also I always have a extra battery In my pocket and a extra at home.

I can't use the charger as an external battery, can I? Like plug my phone into the charger via USB with the battery in the charger, and charge without AC connection?

@OP, any specific reason to not include the Samsung 2000mah battery+cover in that list? Because that is certainly what I would recommend.

I agree 100%. It's the battery they should have included as standard, but i'd reckon the marketing department wanted the lesser capacity battery so they could say how thin the phone is.
Any way, i got a couple of generic batteries off ebay, and my god they were awful to use. Maybe it was my experience, but the phone would get so warm using them and they would drain in less time than the genuine battery even though they were the same capacity.
Maybe it's just my experience, but i'd go genuine from now on based on what happened to me.

Hearing a lot of positive feedback for the anker battery... Might try it myself...

get the anker or that first link,i brought me another samsung battery and a wall charger and its great,use a battery a day and charge the flat one when you swap them over,its worth it,glad i did it.

i am new here, just find anker astro3 10000mah external battery it looks amazing and only $49.99
could anyone give some reviews?
much thanks

I use the Samsung 2000 mah battery and I also have a 1900 mah Anker as a spare in my pocket.
I just carry a small piece of cardboard with the Anker battery so it can sit tightly in the extended 2000 mah case
Both batteries are fine but I prefer the Samsung one.

I have two anker batteries that I rotate with stock battery. I really like having an external charger and being able to charge batteries indepenantly. Very impressed with the anker brand and the affordable price. Just my 2c

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-10000mAh-External-Battery-Charger/dp/B005NGKR54/ref=sr_1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1334312280&sr=1-3

WOW,10000mAh huge capacity

Anker
Recommend anker, 1 year of user.

The Amazon reviews of the Astro3 external USB backup battery are impressive. Reports of people charging a phone and an iPad2 (a greedy device if ever there was one), charging two devices while watching video on one, etc. Very tempting for the price, it sounds like just the thing for a cross-country plane flight.
Really interested in personal reports here....

i am rocking this anker. charges almost all my devices, not just my phone. if anyone buys it of amazon please pm me so i can send anker referrals

Are the chinese oem batteries truly oem?

This.
If that is not an option, I would go for the two Anker plus charger

I'm tempted to finally pickup the Anker 10000. Can anyone tell me if it can be CHARGED via USB? or can it only be charged from a wall?

Portable battery

Hy men I'm searching a portable battery (around 3000 mah) under 30€ there are some on ebay but I don't think that are so good anyone could help me?

I used a charger that runs off double AA batteries and put rechargeable ones in there. I found that usually gives me a good boost and only costed $13 on Amazon (is also a car charger)

Bought the 30 euro Mitone from the airport. Solar charge panel was gimmick but it will provide a boost. Better to get a solid, name brand battery. Alos, don't focus soley on mAh, look at charging efficiency as well.

Link?

I use this one:

I've been pretty happy with it, but it has to be charged with the cable it comes with. other micro USB cables don't fit right.

You can check ANKER brand. or many users have also had good experience with hyperion.

Did you manage to decide on one - I've recently picked up an I9305 and want to get at least a couple of spare batteries and an external charger.
I had 2 genuine HTC batteries and 2 cheap Chinese ones for my heavily modded HTC HD2 with an external charger. It was great for staying in hostels as I'd just wait till the battery was running low, swap out the battery and put it on charge - it's a lot less likely for someone to steal a battery and charger than a phone sat on a bed charging with no one around!
I was contemplating picking up a similar set up but I'm a tad more worried about putting cheap batteries in the S3 - I'm in the UK and the Anker batteries are £10 where as in the US they're $10, but the cheapies are £3 - I'll avoid the "genuine Samsung" ones for £4-10.
The Anker batteries seem to get a reasonable write up but I'm more interested in any major complaints regarding the cheapies.

I like Anker too. Antec is good too though.

If you dont mind the additional bulk i could recomend a zerolemon extended battery...

[Q] EasyAcc® 10000mAh - Reviews?

Hi,
I've been browsing for a portable charger that's worth the price, and I think I might have found the one.
Packed with 10000 mAH, the EasyAcc charger coming in at $26.99 is an incredible deal.
Does anyone have any experience with this charger? How is it compared to the reputable Anker portable chargers? What's the efficiency level?
http://www.amazon.com/EasyAcc®-Bril...7501&sr=8-6&keywords=easyacc+portable+charger
Thanks for your help. :highfive:

It may be rated at 10000mah but who knows what the actual ratings are. I've taken apart an anker charger and the batteries they had actually added up to their advertised ratings.
Then there is also the question of how long it will work for, I know anker has a warranty that is close to 1 year that will cover stuff like reduced battery life etc..

Thank you for you input.
See, that's the thing. The price is incredible, but I'm not so sure if it'll last as long as Anker's chargers.

That price isn't that incredible. Here's a link to a RAVPower 8400mAh pack. They also make a 14000 for ten bucks more. I have owned there 8400 pack for about 4 months now and can vouch for it. Them and Anker is who I would stick with.

That one seems a bit too big to fit in the pocket comfortably. I personally have this one and it's pretty good (http://www.amazon.com/5600mAh-Porta...qid=1393834261&sr=8-13&keywords=anker+charger)
From experience, there is no shortcut to buying lithium batteries for a cheaper price and still getting the average ratings for it's price. You really get what you pay for with lithium batteries, unless you have a discount.

This thread should really be in accessories, not Q&A...

i have 8400 mah rawpower really good

I have one 5000mAh from EasyAcc (with fast charge and a micro usb cable built in).
It does have about the same capacity as advertised. Their service was pretty good too.
