Hey guys I'm looking for the best extended battery for my s2. Price isn't a factor and I would prefer to buy something from amazon.co.uk. the only problem is there's too many to choose and you guys know what's best I'm looking for something that doesn't decrease too much in performance over a long period of time.
Thanks in advance guys

Agree, the genuine one often gives you more satisfaction than other "hi-cap" batteries. And it's more trusty i think

And if you're lucky, it'll actually be as good as the stock battery. Look around the net for tests. Most 3rd party batteries are sh*t.
Honestly, I wouldn't trust a third party battery that claims to be much better. You're far better off (and less likely to do damage) just finding some battery saving techniques.
I believe that at some point you should be able to get OFFICIAL extended battery cases for the SGS II, however. This would be a safer and more sensible alternative. See here.

Thanks, I was aware that those batteries were sh*t, but just wanted to check if someone had any experience with them.
Anyway, I'll stick with original one.
Thanks once more...

Hi,
I bought one on ebay, and it was s..t
It claim to be a 1800 mA but in fact it was a 1350 mA (written under the sticker)
The seller told me it was a mistake from his supplier...

Yes great it is LOL
im not gonna do it for a 1700 battery, thats just a 200 raise, thats no difference
EDIT: Realised this is a duplicate thread.
Anyway, a friend uses this battery in his Samsung Galaxy S. Performs as advertised and the capacity is quite accurate. BMW shows an extension of about 70% more battery life over the stock one.
Some opinions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944438
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.

yeah but users report its not 3500 but more like 3100.

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:
Hi guys i want to know which is the best extended battery for GSM version! i have seen the sedio battery but it costs too much for me any suggestion?
How big are you looking for? The Samsung Extended battery is probably the best in overall quality, but it isn't that big.

the link points to a bolt on external battery, it only charges the internal battery and cannot be used to double the existing one.
once the battery in the phone is used, the bolt on one will charge up the one in the phone, it does not provide power direct to the phone.

Yes it does.. a member here did a review of it charging the phone directly while the phone was in use.

Extended batteries are nice, but they add a lot of bulk to your phone. I switched to my stock battery because having a phone that doesn't feel like a heavy brick is so much nicer.

If only it was possible to get that kind of battery life without turning the phone into a humpback whale.
Just to let you know,
the chinese makers of many batteries like to lie about the MaH ratings - it's easy to tell if you weigh them. Also I've seen them set it up so that power depletes slowly for the first 100-60% and then rapidily drop within seconds when the power is running out.
I recommend looking at reviews from phones in general and find a maker that isn't a scammer - one that takes pride in their name and quality. There are plenty now and they're about the same price if you buy direct from china. I thought a few times about selling them but then I relised that people are too dumb and just look at the price so I couldn't be bothered. There are some countries where it's not even possible to buy a decent replacement battery - Latin America and Spain for example.

Exactly. These make it hard to put the phone in your pocket.
IMHO I'd rather carry around a spare Samsung Extended battery with me and just swap it in. Saves a lot of money. I got mine on Amazon for like $10. Plus I can use any case with it.
