2 2200mAh batteries and an external charger $15 + shipping

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Sams...MEB4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338313443&sr=8-1
Figured I'd share this, just ordered it, seems like a great price. Will update next week after phone and batteries arrive to share how well they work.

Sounded to good to me to be true, so I did a quick search and found this

(You'll have to complete the link at the beginning because I don't have enough posts to post links)
Anyway I'll have to assume that the batteries I posted are an analog to what you posted. That means that they wont have NFC capability. This may or may not be a big deal depending on what you want to use the phone for. Reading the comments it also seems like the batteries drain faster than the stock battery, but considering you get 2 + a charger this could still be a decent deal for $15

Lots of El Cheapo replacement batteries (shipped from HK) are already available at eBay. I still use HK-shipped backup batteries for my Captivate. They might not last as long as the originals, but they can get a few hours of juice when if your main runs out. They also take a "few" days to be delivered.
Edit: If the NFC component of the SIII is built-in in the battery... I doubt that these El Cheapo aftermarket will have NFC.

If anything, I would get something like this: link. But I'm going to wait until I have my S3, just in case the North American version requires a different battery. Which it shouldn't, but I'm a little paranoid.

Maybe someone will come out with a high capacity battery with NFC built in? I hope so.

All I can say is that you get what you pay for with batteries, good luck with these.

This. Hopefully, the Anker batteries come with the NFC chip.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium

Is the NFC always built into the battery. I tried to find out if that is the way it is on the Galaxy Nexus.....they both use the same NFC chip.

NFC is built into the battery on at least the Galaxy Nexus and Skyrocket and Hercules, probably many others as well.
Most of the cheaper battery makers will advertise a higher MAH value than the battery is actually capable of.
The last 1800 MAH battery I bought off ebay (similar to some cheapy amazon) lasted only ~70% as long as my OEM 1800 MAH battery.

I ordered these too. I had them for my s2 and they worked well. Good enough for a spare to carry around.

The 3rd party batteries for SGS3 thread is there

NFC is not as important to me right now but I imagine in the next year or so it will be something I cannot live without. Well, once I program some and learn tasker
That said... $20 for the Hyperion regular batteries and charger is a no-brainer. If nothing else, just to have backups. Still wishing for NFC even if they are a little more money.

I've had hyperion batteries for my Droid Charge, and they work quite well, but they seem to lose their ability to hold a charge faster than stock batteries. I've had them for about a year now and they started losing their charge around 7-8 months in.
Great deal though!

My issue would be even though I mostly charge batteries externally can it be charged in the phone without an error?

Batteries is one of those things I almost never get aftermarket ones for unless from a really reputable company, I've seen too many battery implosion/explosions due to bad QC. Great way to ruin a phone/device.

I agree with this. I am hoping that the OEM ones are available by the time I get my phone. Once reputable companies have alternatives that have numerous favorable reviews (especially NFC ones) I'll certainly consider them but for now I'm not going to take the risk.

Do you guys think these are legit?

This phone (and a few others) have their NFC antenna built into the battery. To cut it short, change the batt, NFC won't work (Till they make 3rd. part batteries with antenna too).

i got a couple of emails from Anker,
Thank you for contacting us.
Please be advised that we will forward your concern to our product team to see if we will develop this battery. To be honest, it is hard to find a factory who makes batteries with NFC built in. If we find one, we will consider developping NFC batteries. Hope this helps!
If there is anything else we may help, please feel free to contact us. We are always here.

About how much do these anker batteries cost? obviously the NFC capabilities it will most likely raise the price. I have always run my stock OEM battery, but would love to have a strong aftermarket battery that will be significant.

According to this article, the battery of the s3 has a build in inductive charging loop. I presume this is the nfc coil.
I'm not sure whether the one in the battery is only for wireless charging or whether the phone depends on it for all it's nfc connectivity.
It's a bit off topic, but I presumed that the wireless charging would be a coil in a new back case that connected to the two exposed pins underneath the back panel until I read this article. Those pins might mean a pin based charging dock.

agreed. i purchased them for my S2 and they drained twice as fast as the OEM battery. the only reason i continued to use them was for emergencies. id keep them charged and ready to go whenever i knew id be away from a charger for a long period of time. they only have enough life for about 2 hours of ACTUAL use. standby lasted probably 8 hours

My opinion about a 4000 mAh mugen battery

Hello guys, I would like to tell you my opinion about a battery that I had the chance to try. I'm talking about a battery produced by Mugen for Samsung Galaxy Nexus, with a capacity of 4000 mAh (more than double of normal rate).
Usually I'm used to use the smartphone with many apps in the background (WhatsApp, Dropbox, Beautiful widget and many other) and i often run games, especially in down time of the day. Im also linked to a carrier that has only 3G. Before attempting the battery I used to utilize three batteries so i can change eachother when the current one is downloaded.
With the Mugen's 4000 mAh battery i have found no problems to arrive safely at the end of the day, even when I spend hours playing.
In addition, the cover included in the package greatly improves the grip (im serius!).
I've tried it for 5-6 days but if you want to get more details, statistics and screenshots you can view this video review (in Italian)
You can buy it from www.mugen-power-batteries.com

Does this battery maintain NFC ability? I've seen some extended batteries that don't and some that do.
Thanks.

I have used the Seidio extended batteries since my Dinc days and I love them. The 3800 monster for gnex does have nfc and it'll last for days with my SlimICS rom.highly recommended. The casing leaves a lot to be desired but its totally worth it for me for battery life.

The Mugen Power 4000 Mah supports NFC. A larger backcover is included.
The back cover has a kick-stand, this is great for watching video's.
The only disadvantage with the new backcover is that you cannot change backcovers too often. This is due to the vurnable "holding pins"
I have my 4000 Mah for about a month now, and it is awesome! The battery lasts 2,5 day's with heavy usage. Now I just have to find a way to cut out the back of my cardock in a proper way to fit the larger backcover.

Sorry for late reply! The battery is NFC compatible, i've tested it with another phone and it works!
It can totally replace the original battery

Galaxy Nexus After Market / Third Party Batteries with NFC

Has anyone found any on Ebay or else where that have maintained true NFC functionality?
I've seen a few on Ebay but the labeling is so "China town," I don't know if I trust them.

Did you try Amazon? I think Seidio makes some.

Those battery are also made in China. You just pay more for their brand.
And those two brand don't even have their own factory.

Hyperion review
Just got this that arrived yesterday morning:
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Exte...APABILITIES/dp/B007C8XRJY/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_t_1
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, after reading reviews, because the cover that came with my snapped right on, with no problem whatsoever. I started fitting it at the bottom and worked my way around snapping the clips in and wala - perfect fit.
I also bought this cover:
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Exte...ompatible/dp/B0083HHU5A/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_img_2
It's black/honeycombed and fits perfectly over the new back, giving the whole phone a factory made look. The only "negative" to it, is the volume buttons and the on/off buttons are now alot more sensitive - the cover goes over them and it doesn't take much now to depress one of the buttons - I'm actually liking it more, as I get used to it, but I imagine you could carve the rubber off at the buttons with a knife if it bothered anyone.
Anyway, after reading the little card that comes with it and the "charge it for 12 hours, kill it 4 or 5 times cycling" - I plugged it in and after about 2 hrs, it was saying fully charged. I needed to use my phone, so I turned it on - made a couple phone calls with it and decided just to use it. I read cycling doesn't matter with a Li battery anyway, and I was just excited to see if this thing was for real.
It's 10:43 the next morning - my battery has 19% left on it and it has been on the battery for 18hrs, 8mins when I unplugged it yesterday!!! I am a heavy user too - all throughout yesterday, played a few games, many visits to facebook, web surfing texting, 10 or so short phone calls - then again this morning, surfing the web for a good 1.5-2hrs gathering news.
All I can say, is this is unheard of - I've NEVER been able to do this on the stock battery. I'm going to run this all the way down today, so I'll post back when it actually shuts down, but it's for real folks - order it! I'm thinking about ordering another one for backup - I'll only have to charge once a week!

In this case, quality matters. I've already researched the differences. You won't be getting as good battery life as the one's from Seidio or Mugen. Please do the research before saying such things, as you're misleading others.
It's already been confirmed that the cheap Ebay batteries are of low quality.
Just because it's Made in China, doesn't reflect the quality of the build. Seriously? Everything is made in China...

Your statement doesn't stand. You're insinuating that the cheap-o Ebay batteries are just as good as the Branded Seidio / Mugen batteries, when that is clearly not the case.
Shifting the goal posts aren't ya. Seriously, stop spreading misinformation. I gave you at least 3 sources from various forum members that concurred the battery life discrepancy is vastly different between the generic and branded ones. (Mugen/Seidio)
Did you provide a source showing that the generic ones off of eBay have as good or better quality than the branded ones? Looks like no.
I have sources to back my claim up, you have, well, none.
example of a bad battery (trexcell)
http://www.amazon.com/Trexcell-Samsung-Compliant-Extended-Compatible/dp/B007EZ2PU2
and FYI, Seidio uses battery cells made from Japan.

I have both the seidio and the hyperion NFC batteries and they both work well for me. Can't complain about either of them. 5 hours plus screen on time usually. Yeah yeah, mod this kernel and underclock/volt that kernal and "I can get that on stock"...well I can't. I like the bigger battery as well.

Went 24.5 hrs before it gave up and shut down - recharged to 100% in about 2 hrs and I'm at 14 hrs running with 66% left - I'm loving this!

How about you start by telling us where you go these batteries? As for NFC, it stands for Near Field Communications. It can be used in a way to pay for items, or bumping phones together to share information, such as pictures, contacts, etc. I am not a fan of it, I always have it turned off in my phone settings.

don't these cheap batteries pose a risk of leaking in the phone or something? Like what if the damage the phone!?

What, where did you hear that? The only thing I have seen people have to worry about with cheap batteries is how much of a charge they hold and how well they actually work. I have seen batteries malfunction due to ****ty car chargers before though but never just a battery fail while in a phone minus ghost stories from trolls on the internet.

mAh has nothing to do with the amount of current or voltage so I don't know what you mean by manufacturers having large tolerances?? And it wouldn't be detrimental, it would add to your battery life. (as long as the mAh claims are accurate)

hey i just made some fast research on the seller of the item
i cant link the url apparently because i jus made the account but go ahead and check the ebay sellers' (utigertech) feedback. They are not good.
in short, this battery is fake and some user feedback states that it does not last even longer than the stock 2100mah samsung oem battery

Testing of MPJ 3200mah Battery for S3
I have purchased one of the MPJ 3200 mah batteries for the Galaxy S3. I have bench tested the battery over 7 days with multiple charges and discharges.
The results are that the battery is approximately 2000 mah it does not even come close to 3200 mah. The sellor is being misleading on the mah and you are better off buying a standard battery as it has 2100 mah and NFC.
I will try and test a few more batteries in the next couple of weeks..

Thanks for running the tests. Aftermarket battery sellers are notorious for jacking up the mAh rating.

I'm amazed that so many people get sucked in by these fake batteries. There is no battery technology out there that lets you increase the capacity without increasing the size.
