I just bought this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/330698068250?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I just needed a spare battery, Usually I come home from school with like 65% left but for some reason I like to spend money on my GNeX accesories, so I bought this battery. I hope it has NFC but for 4$ whatever.
So my question is, anyone know where to find a 1750MAH battery charger like those ones that samsung sells where the batter just slips in and the lid closes? I need one but not prepared to pay the 20-30$.
Any cheap ones that you guys use that work well?
I found this one on Amazon and it's in the mail now. Seems cool because you can adjust the charging pins to fit lots of different rectangular batteries. Haven't received it yet but if you're interested I'll repost after I do.

Alright thanks man . Anyone else got a battery charger they'd like to recxommend ?

The pic on that listing shows nfc on the picture of the battery, but like all fake Samsung batteries, it won't actually have it. I say when you get it, report that the item received was not what was listed and get a refund. It won't be worth anyone's time or money to pay for return shipping, so you'll end up with a free battery and the person who listed that will hopefully learn from their attempted scam.

Hmm yeah I'll see it it supports nfc and if it doesn't, I might get the 3.99$ back but eh, it still didn't say anything about nfc in the description and this guy has a good eBay reputation so whatever

Although, these are quite cheap don't feel like going to buy one. May be u should buy first and then give us some feedback? That'd be nice
Wow, that's going to be about 2.2 times fatter than the original phone! LOL! Heck no!
lol @ alright then will order one for me.
well they say if u want more juice you'll have to shell more quids. lol but i think this is not the case here
I'll bite.
hold your horses. these two sellers look a bit cheeky to me, they have recently changed thier product pictures and more or less they look the same. however also they have hidden the battery mAH what for ???
These are 100% fake, you will be very lucky if there not less than the original, do not be conned.
I will buy one.
Looking at the price and pics it seems to be fake and I am afraid that they might explode or overheat over the period of time.
ouch that's one ugly case back cover!
Yeh looks cheeky to me but have to be buy one. Excited !!!!

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.
I was told to get the extended battery from verizon by XDA member player911. I said okay, looked online and didnt find anything. I pm'ed him and he said call the store, ask them if they have it, and ask the price. It may come up as 50.00, if so hang up call another store. When it comes up as 25.00, profit. I attached proof for the ones that say pics or never happened.

As far as I know, this battery has always been "on sale" for $25 from Verizon since launch. I've seen these reminder news posts about it about every month now.

The verizon battery comes with a new cover that will fit the battery. But you're saying the actual width/height of the battery is different and won't fit in the slot?
Does it make a significant difference? I have the stock battery and I am usually plugged into an outlet for some of the day, but I run full brightness and Juice defender and have NO problems getting through the day. Although I would like to feel like I dont have to be tethered to a wire all day.
I too am mulling over buying the "extended" battery. Even though I'm not far from a USB charger in my daily routine.
25 dollars isn't that much money, but it's pretty pathetic when you only get an extra what? 300mAh? Something like an extra 16% capacity.
From what I have seen the extended battery and door don't really add any significant weight or thickness to the phone (which is good) but it really makes you wonder why they didn't just make the "extended" the stock battery if it adds no significant weight or thickness.
I came from my Sprint Evo with the official sprint extended battery, and to be honest I'm enjoying the "thinness" of my Nexus without the double width action going on.
I might stop by the sprint store today and pick one up after work, ONLY because I really want to get my inductive charging mod completed today. It's kind of pointless to mod the stock battery door and all that junk only to have to do it again for the extended back cover.
Granted my Nexus only cost me 9 dollars after trading in my Evo4G, after a Rearth case, Zagg film, and touchstone materials I gotta start watching how much I spend if I throw an extended battery in the mix.
Seems I'm an accessory whore
I somehow lost my extended battery while on vacation and have to buy a new one.... I'm hoping it is still $25.... but when I pull it up it now says for me it is only 25% off making it $37... Could be because there is a corporate discount on my account. Anyone know if it still is $25, or am I just a couple days too late :-(
Hello all! Do to bad battery life on my wildfire S I decided to buy a battery anker that charges my phone any ware and everywhere. The battery charger has a 3200 mah battery built in.

*Blue LED power indicator

looks nice, what other cables does it come with ?
Longer usb cable that connects to your phone, it also has a USB port at the top of the battery Anker so you can use different usb to charge different phones
Looks nice is it heavy;
You can carry it with you when
You need a extra charge right;

ROM: Wildchild v 1. 1
half the weight of the wildfire S. Since its very slim you can carry it in your pocket or if you are a girl, then inside your purse. Well worth my $20 IMO
I gotta get one of those... my phone barely lasts a day.. D:
so am I right in thinking you use this to charge your phone up when it's out of juice....and if so, how many times can it charge up the wfs? I'm thinking it could be useful for weekends away or camping trips etc?
Yes camping it would be great! The power bank is 3200 mah so it can charge the wildfire s 2 times from dead, they make a 8000 mah as well

a case with a built in battery, like these. AFAIK, no one makes them for anything except iphones.
those are cool but that wouldn't happen on our phone or most android phones. Its easy and cheap to make cases for iphone because the design stays the same for the most part, designers have more time to create the case and for android phones the design is always changing and people are always getting new phones so a case like that would be great but there isn't enough money to be made by the maker, the wildfire s is popular but not that popular, I could see this battery case being made for the HTC one X
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.

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.
