I see the stock EVO 3D battery is over 1700 mAh per Engadget's review. Does anyone know if that battery will work in the Thunderbolt, much like the myTouch 4G battery does?
It looks bigger to me but I really wish it would

If you want a larger sized battery that doesn't need a different back seidio sells a 1700 mah battery. You can get it from Amazon and other online stores.

And it's going to have exactly the same kind of life as the stock 1400mah battery, Seidio is known for misstating their batteries actual capacity. Not worth the extra money.

+ a billion times infinity x five. If not worse battery life. This is not an opinion.
I just switched from the Evo to the Thunderbolt.... it definatly is not the same battery. The Evo battery is bigger in size than the Thunderbolt.
No it wont work but you can get the battery in the eris lol.

So I actually checked my battery just to make sure what it was and I found out I was duped by Sprint! So I have a 1500 instead of an 1800, but the thing is I was actually getting decent battery life. How much will the extra 300 mAh make a difference?
How should I go about changing my battery to an 1800?
People who have both said they did notice a difference between the two. Not much, but noticeable.
haha, you made me double check my battery but I do have a 1800 mah. Obviously your battery will last longer with an 1800mah vs 1500mah but exactly how much, I do not know.
If it really matters too you, you should try convincing sprint to send you a 1800 battery. or you can always check amazon. 1800 E4GT batterys come out to around $25

Hey I was thinking of getting some extra batteries. Seems it is now 3 batteries + charger for 11 bucks:

Have you, or anyone, used these? Are they official Samsung batteries as shown in the picture? If not, how is the quality? Would love to hear from some people. Sorry for slight OT...

Try calling sprint or going to a sprint store and see if they will do anything about it. There's a post somewhere in the forums and i think people had success getting a new battery from sprint.

Alright, as long as they work as good as the OEM ones, I'm fine with that...
9 bucks is worth the risk, I'm sure they will get me out of an emergency at least once..

I would try this first, since it would be free.
I am very sorry if there is already topic like this one.
I found on ebay a battery that was 3500mAh or 3600mAh I don't recall exactly, but they say that it is the exact size like the original and won't change the size of the phone like the 5000mAh does.
My question is did someone has it,and how is it working? How many hours did your phone last?
Thank You in advance!

Absolute nonsense. Every battery that claims vast improvements in the same form factor is a scam.
If 3500mah could fit in the space provided, Samsung would have included a 3500mah battery.

I Don't agree,there could be a lot of reasons why they didn't put one,from budget point of view to supply issues. It's not like they strive to bring you the best at any cost.

I've always wondered whether the Note 2's battery fits in the GN. Because from the reviews the battery looks like the same size... anyone done the comparison?

If you meant the Gold battery, then it is 3500mAh. I bought two and noticed a huge difference compared to my stock battery. The stock used to power the phone until 7pm with moderate usage, wifi and bluetooth always on. Ever since I used the Gold battery, the battery still is at approximately 40% at 11pm. The battery still is 2 days old but still, the difference is noticeable
can you guys do a nova battery tester run on those batteries?

Mine came with 2800 mAh. Since it's cheaper than stock it has worth the purchase. Don't get your hopes high with these batteries.
Your srock may be dieing if it's almost a year old. Mine got down to 1700 mAh and this explains the "huge" difference you see in your new battery.

I bought the Gold battery two months after I got my Note so it means the OEM is still at it's peak. But yeah, I really don't have high hopes for replacement batteries. They may have a higher charge but they won't last as long as OEM. Like my dslr batteries, I get more juice out of the replacement batteries but my OEM battery outlasted them. But it is still worth it for me. What good is a camera (or phone in this case) if it does not have power when you really need it? Battery life does not matter to me (atleast in my case since I could buy 4 to 5 replacement batteries for 1 OEM dlsr battery - the Gold battery however, is another case).I keep that mantra all the time and I am happy with it :laugh:
Are there any good 3rd party slim batteries? Or is stock the best so far?

Anker 2200mah. You won't notice any improvement though. To do that you will have to go up a size.

It has been a while since the GS3 was released now, surely the same size battery size can go up to 2400 to 2500 now.

Mugen Power 2300 mAh Slim Extended Battery <--- this is the exact answer you are looking for. Provides an additional 10% or so of usage to your phone without bulking up the size. At 40$~ ish it is slightly expensive, but it is the best solution for those looking for a better battery without bulking =)

Does it still fit with the stock back and is it from china?

Sorry to let you know but you just got ripped off. I bought a "2600" and a "2900" maH battery from eBay as well in the past, only to find out that they last me around 8 hours with about 1 hour and 30 minutes of screen on time - the true mAh in these batteries is around 1400-1700, if I had to take a guess. You can peel off the sticker on the 2900 battery you ordered and it will probably say the true capacity of the battery imprinted onto it. As I said in one of my earlier posts, the only "real" slim extended batteries are the mugen 2300, anker 2200, and hyperion 2200, in which the mugen comes out on top from personal experience =)

FTFY.
There is no way you believe that a random Chinese company making deals on eBay has somehow figured out a magical unicorn battery technology that allows them, not only to completely outdo Samsung in capacity, but also undercut them in price.

Oops, sorry I didn't read, I thought it was the extended battery for that price. Yeah I have the 9000 mah zero lemon in white.
I didn't want the burden of the built in case so I went with this 2 pack + charger combo. Probably one of the better investments I've made for a phone. There's always two days of extra power ready to go on reserve and the quality matches up with the OEM battery after about 2 weeks of hard usage.
