Just looking for some feedback on some of the amazon/ebay batteries
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I received my Hyperions and universal charger yesterday. I'm not sure the prongs were adjusted to the right position on the charger. I charged one in the charger and one in the phone. After six+ hrs, the one in the charger had not completed. When I put it in the phone, it was at 56%, so I don't think it was right. I'll be checking for the correct polarity (positions). I ended up charging the 2nd one in the phone overnight. Took it off the charger at 7:00 this morning.
Because I only had the one battery, I have yet to fully deplete the oem battery.
I will post with my impressions after the Hyperion fully discharges and I can do the same to the oem one for comparision.
Got 27 hours out of it. Moderate/minimal usage. Had an appt. so couldn't wait for it to shut down. Meter said 12% when I changed it. But I'm very happy with 27 hrs..
Polarity was a bit clearer on the oem battery. I moved the sliding contact on the Hyperion charger to the first and third contacts and that seems to be charging correctly.
There is a video review of those batteries on YouTube. I think it's under the Zedomax channel or the High On Android one. Good review. I'm going to be ordering the charger and 2 battery pack. Only 20 bucks...

These charges aren't compatible with galaxy s III batteries. I've charged batteries overnight and come back and it's still only 91%, and the full charge indicator is blue.
Has anyone ever has good luck with generic batteries? I've tried various ones from eBay or Amazon with my last three phones and thought they sucked compared to the oem. I swore to just buy real batteries this time.
Just to clarify, the NFC chip is in the battery, so 3rd party batteries will be missing this
Yep no chip. It's good as a spare battery still.
And I can back up the thing about the charger. It never did give the oem battery full charge. It's a POS in my opinion anyway.
The OEM battery gave me just slightly better time until it got down to 14%. So i think these Hyperions are pretty good notwithstanding the lack of the chip.
I happen to really like my Hyperion batteries so far. They seem to last just as long as my OEM battery.
When I use the Universal Charger the highest I have gotten the batteries charged up to has been 96%.
It takes a very long time to charge them. You know that you have the prongs in the right place if the light lights up blue when you connect the battery to the charger while it is OUT of the wall sockets. When you plug it in to the wall it will turn a pinkish red.
I hope that helps
I bought two Anker batteries. I had great luck with the Anker batteries on my Captivate, better than stock and way better than the generic batteries.

my hyperion batts work great but the charger is crap im going to take it apart and mod it at work so the pins wont move see if that helps..but the usb port on the side works good for charging the phone..no NFC but very good battery so far plus i need to cycle it and break it in..the OEM one has more use like said before.. but this battery is good for back ups .. im looking to get a OEM samsung charger with the battery/spare/dock..i think im good with 2 batts.. 2 OEM batts should work out for my use but now ill have 4 batts
i love this replacing battery..unlike iphone haha no more buying iphones for me

There was a time when the only spare batteries I bought were Anker. They make high quality aftermarket batts that's for sure. Did you receive these yet? Do you like them?

Yeah I just posted the same on my thread......gonna get the dock charger w/ oem battery. I think I'll be giving the nfc tags a try so will want an oem battery for a spare.
I have the same issues with the Universal charger that came with Anker. 95% is the max I can get out from it.
China batteries
NOTE: I have not tried this for my gs3 but i had the same brand for my droid x and I must say they are not as high quality as the OEM (of course) but the price for 3 back-up batteries are priceless also if you are having troubles with the chargers, this one fits perfectly and charges them full.
Also does anyone know if using non-OEM batteries will in turn degrade the life span of the original battery?
I picked up sime batteries that are marked NFC, but I'd like to verify that they are indeed NFC capable.
Outside of going to an NFC enabled credit card terminal, or testing it directly with another NFC enabled phone, is there a way to verify that it is indeed an NFC capable battery, like an app? Thanks.

Warning! watch out for the Fake batteries on ebay
I bought a couple batteries to test, but I was extremely disappointed. No NFC chip, just a good sticker on a real crappy battery.
Don't buy from:
shinging2011
2 x 2100mah OEM Battery + Dock Charger For Samsung Galaxy S3 18.99
I barely get about 8 hours with either of these and now on of the pins broke on the charger.
Meh, prob'ly don't get these
I got these "2500mAh" via Ebay.
I properly "conditioned" them both, as well as I could. One lasts just a little longer than stock. It's a decent replacement battery, and it was cheaper than the Hyperion. The other doesn't charge all the way, ever after 15 hours total on three different chargers, so it's a dud. I haven't followed up on it yet. (I was going to do a proper test, but I just haven't had a day/evening off to do that either.)
My guess is that streaming video at full brightness with all radios on, the good one would last another 10 minutes. I rather think the risk of getting a bad one isn't worth buying them.
After I recover from my phone accessory binge, I'm planning on buying a proper OEM with the NFC chip. I'm getting addicted to it, even without being able to shell out cash with it, and I'm tired of how fast the cheap batteries (four months to a year or so) end up not taking a charge - I've gone the cheap-battery route since the HTC Wizard (released with WinMo 3.0), and although I can't complain too much, I've ended up spending just as much on replacing the cheap stuff as I would have buying the real deal, but with more hassle and more garbage. (Sorry Mom Earth, I'll do better next time.)

Put it in an NFC-capable phone (that works with the OEM) and see if it beeps when you hold it up to a $1 tag.
I'm finding the tags indespensible around the house. This technology is going to be amazing for groceries. I'm jonsing for a wifi-connected refrigerator with a reader in it.
I don't really care about the NFC capability, but I too am tired of buying cheap batteries that just don't work well. I'm really wondering if the extra money is really worth it for the legit OEM batteries. I've only had my S3 now a few days and haven't really had a good chance yet to evaluate battery life on the stock battery.

Looks like the cheapo aftermarket battery manufacturers have got the Note battery reverse engineered and up for sale on ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...galaxy+note+battery&_sacat=See-All-Categories
They're advertised as 2600 mAh (100 more than factory) and average about $5 apiece, with many listings including an external/wall charger for them.
I've purchased these for several phones in the past and it's hard to beat the value. They're waaay cheaper than authentic batteries, and my experience has been that they have nearly the same capacity as factory, though they don't last for as many charges. Still good for several months though. However, the last one I got for my GSII wouldn't charge when in the phone. If I plugged the charger into the GSII while one of those cheapo batteries was in it, it made a weird sound and the phone rebooted; it wouldn't charge.
I'm going to go ahead and purchase one of these listings and I'll update this thread with my experiences. If anyone else gets one before me, please post here which one you got and whether or not it'll charge while in the phone.
I ordered some - they use super slow shipping, but oh well.
- Frank
I ordered too. A month til they arrive. Anyone know of any US shippers of batteries for the note?
US Shipper but batteries only no charger
http://www.ebay.com/itm/P020-3-x-2600-mAh-Replacement-Battery-Samsung-i9220-Galaxy-Note-/150703989189?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2316a861c5#ht_1693wt_1054
nice... i wonder if they'd work properly with this http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Sync-Cr...043529?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cbecb78c9
So any update on this yet? Does the batter work well?
Actually, I just tested one today. I bought some of the batteries with a charger from one of the Chinese sellers and those are still on the way, but I bought another one from a US seller so I wouldn't have to wait. That one arrived yesterday, I charged it last night by holding it into an external charger with a rubber band, and put it in the phone today.
It's difficult to tell how it performed since my usage today wasn't that typical, but I'd say it probably had a capacity of 70%-80% of the stock battery. It lasted ~16 hrs with fairly heavy usage in the morning, followed by light usage in the afternoon, then a few hours in my friend's metal-walled shop, which usually rapidly eats batteries due to searching for signal.
I felt like I could notice the battery draining faster than the stock one normally does, but I'm hoping the capacity will go up with some charge/discharge cycles. This was the first charge and discharge. Regardless, I could definitely live with %75 capacity considering the price.
This battery is one of the black ones with white label. Not very scientific, but I only noticed 2 styles in all of the cheapo sellers' pics, and the other one is white. Those are the ones I have on the way.
If it's really giving you 70-80 in the first charge it may get as good as 80-85% of the stock one after five or six charging cycles ,and that ,for the ridiculous price you paid i say its a damn good deal.
Please review the white ones once you have them and thanks for the info.

No doubt they will, after all, the measures are standart so if the battery is made to fit inside the note it will fit in the slot of the charger.
Best value all in all, is the 3 batteries+wall charger pack, which I bought for the equivalent of little less than 10eur, before even buying the phone to save on the shipping time, but they are stll on their way.
Same kind of pack was glorious on my HD2, and the OEM's after a couple years last about half of the original battery (on android which has the suckiest battery management, got up to 4days with either original and OEM on Wm6.5), but oh well.
I bought this

Too bad
Take 12 hours to be charged, very long time
And ending in 8 hours
Just got some of these chinese batteries, the quality is horrendous, to the point I'm scared to use them.
You can actually tell that they have used a slightly small battery and put spacers in to bulk it out to fit the note!
I've had some time with both white and black batteries now. They're definitely not as good as the OEM. The white seem like it might be a little worse than the black, but that might be just my imagination.
My first guess was that the capacity of the black one was maybe 70%-80% that of the OEM, but that was a rough guess. Someone in another thread speculated that they're taking other batteries and just repackaging them to fit into the Note. I made a spacer for using my GSII battery in my Note (thread here on it), and the performance of these aftermarket batteries is kind of similar to when I was using the GSII battery but maybe a little better. The GSII battery is 1650 mAh, which is 66% of the Note's OEM battery.
In the past when I got cheap knock-off batteries for other phones, they usually performed a little less than OEM but not that much. They didn't last for as many cycles, though. I may build a capacity testing circuit soon and get some actual numbers...
Still, for $5 it's worth keeping one in your back pocket when going out for awhile, or taking 2 or 3 charged ones with you on a weekend trip so you don't have to carry your charger and search for outlets.
Mine arrived yesterday (black ones) and after their third charge they are giving me around 60 % of the juice of the original one.
Regarding the ridiculous times to charge it, it is because the ultra cheap chargers they send are 250-300 miliamp output (probably less in reality)
I use a universal battery charger that gives me 1 amp output so the battery is fully charged in about two and a half hours (a little less because the battery is probably 2100 or 2200 miliamps instead of 2500)
In another post someone suggested weighing their ebay batteries to determine if they were OEMs or not, I weighed mine. Results:
OEM: 49.35 grams
white cheapo: 45.1 g (91% of OEM)
black cheapo: 39.2 g (79% of OEM)
Clearly they're not going to perform as well as the OEM with less stuff in there, though I wouldn't necessarily equate the % weight difference to % capacity difference. But Samsung wouldn't be adding extra weight to the phone for no reason.

Huh, looks like the white being worse than the black may not be just your imagination after all.

Where can I buy universal battery charger that gives 1 amp ?
I just got 28 hrs moderate use out of one of the white ones.
I've installed Battery Monitor Widget Pro and I'm going to cycle through the OEM battery and one of the white ones for several cycles, letting some statistics build up, then in a week or so I'll post the results.

I bought mine a year ago in amazon. Brand and model, Ansmann digicharger vario pro. (Be careful, there is another version that is not the pro that only gives 500 miliamp output)
The good thing is that is one accessory you can still use when you change your phone in the future

That's it, but you may find it cheaper somewhere.
Hey guys, I took the plunge and bought a set of these batteries from eBay, thought i'd share the findings with you guys!
Seller posted quickly and I received the batteries within a few days, fit the phone perfectly, lack NFC as expected and seem to last longer than the stock battery! Even better they haven't exploded in my pocket
These are for the i9250 (GSM) model.

Overall I'd have to say I am very impressed with these batteries! only £10 for two batteries and a charger is a steal in my eyes, and I would highly recommend a set to anyone looking for some extra juice out of their nexus!
Thanks for the review. I'm sure the lack of NFC will be a deal breaker for most as it would be for me.
Yeah I can see it being a top feature in other countries where there is a NFC infrastructure in place, but here in the UK we have barely anything to use NFC with, so I'm fine to go without!
Warning chinese batteries can.explode or burn.
I also broke down and bought two 1900 mah batteries from ebay. Paid 13$ for them and a charging dock. Was looking for Anker but couldn't find them.

Am I the only one having problems with these chinese batteries?
Well no actual problems since I dont own one, but still: I dont trust 'em. Not one bit.
I bought a >500€ phone and I wont install a cheap replacement just to save some bucks. Worst case these things ruin the phone or even worse hurt me...
Really cant understand it to be honest. No risk I want to take just to save some money and gain a few mAh at best.
So how is the batterylife after some days of usage?
What about the charger, getting hot loading the original battery?
Did you notice something negative about them now?
Hopefully those that against the so call chinese batteries, please rephase them as non original batteries, many batteries are chinese made, even some samsung galaxy nexus batteries are made in china, and nokia, motorola, even HTC.

I've had two chargers die on me, the second one died with a big bang and tripped the circuit out leaving carbon scoring on the cable. I have been refunded for the charger but now have no way of charging the batteries except for putting them in the phone so they're next to useless (would only be of use as quick charge spares when low on power to swap out).

Seriously????? Obviously when referring to "chines batteries" people are referring to the cheap eBay crap. Despite whether they work or not or explode or not do you REALLY think they go through "QA" or "certification?" These are (usually) cheap Chinese knockoffs where if you are lucky you might get what they are actually rated at but if you believe these $3 and $5 batteries actually go through any sort of "QA" you are hallucinating. They put what they want on the labels but don't believe for a second any agency in China tests or certifies them for anything and even if they did I wouldn't trust them for a second.
If you or anyone wants to buy $5 batteries, that's perfectly fine, I've owned some myself, but don't think for a second because they say "certified or tested" on them that they really are.
I've bought cheap camera batteries that look identical to real $80 Nikon batteries but believe me, other than looks they don't even come close.

then it's you who to blame, you get what you pay for, and don't expect a well known brand for $3-$5, and you should know better, stuff like batteries and medicine, alway buy from people and place you trust.
that being said, there are many batteries, not brands like samsung, sonyericsson etc, but brands from china and hong kong like yoobao, speed, yperfect, momax and goki are cheaper alternative, that do go through certification and QC, so don't treat all chinese batteries cheap knock off, they are not fakes, just third party alternative.

Chinese certification?
I bought these about two weeks ago, and I am very impressed with the batteries. They have provided consistently longer battery life than the original, whether it will hold onto the charge after a few hundred cycles is a different matter.
However, I would recommend getting a different charger. The one supplied blew a fuse because it was heating up so much. It might be a faulty one, but given how cheap these are, I would urge caution with these chargers.
Just got my no lemon slim battery works for the active. Got 2 batteries and charger for 19.99

That is for S4, not S4 Active, I assume the two batteries are different .
The S4 (GS4) and the S4 Active (GS4A) share the same battery, thankfully: 2600 mAh stock, same size, specs, everything. I got a brand new one from Samsung just a few days ago (used that 50% coupon code they offered me when I registered my GS4A) and here's shots of the packaging:

The S4 (GS4) and the S4 Active (GS4A) share the same battery, thankfully: 2600 mAh stock, same size, specs, everything. I got a brand new one from Samsung just a few days ago (used that 50% coupon code they offered me when I registered my GS4A) and here's shots of the packaging:

2 batteries are same, actually most parts are same, or else the cost would be much higher for Samsung.

I've seen some (S4, I think) reviews that say that the battery is a bit thicker than the original one and, that the back cover bulges a bit. Does this happen with the S4 Active as well? Having more betteries sounds nice but, I don't really want to have my water resistant phone become less resistant because of the battery.

when you say "no bulky case", I assume you're using your stock back cover. Can you answer the question below?

Yes, they actually got delivered yesterday but the instructions say to charged them for 12 hours before use for optimal performance. I just put them in so no I can't make comment on battery life as of yet.
The packing was all quite nice/professional and the batteries feel solid. The postage also came well within estimated time frame.
Are they bigger than the Samsung batteries (in physical size)? Yes, they are noticeably thicker if you put the batteries end to end by maybe a millimetre. Would this compromise your water-seal? I can't say for sure, but I would not risk dunking the device in a bath tub while it has a zero-lemon in it.
I will do a better review tomorrow after some proper use.

I will get to the water-resistance first and then move onto other aspects in this review as I think that's what most people are concerned about.
I did several tests, but the ultimate outcome is that the zerolemon does compromise the seal. I put the bottom of the phone in a bowl of water for about 5 seconds with a samsung battery and then for 30 seconds, neither time did the seal break. I then did the same with the zero lemon. After 5 seconds, it appeared to be solid. After 30 seconds, the water had flowed in. I only put the bottom of the phone in as there is essentially little to worry about getting wet there. I would not expect the phone to survive being dropped in a pool or bathtub with a zero-lemon. Maybe a sink or toilet bowl if rescued quickly.
Continued review hidden:
As for battery life, it makes me through a full day of heavy use. While using samsung batteries, I would carry around a spare with me but I feel I wont need to do that anymore. This is still a very good option if you don't feel like sacrificing your water resistance or NFC. YOU WILL LOSE NFC. Zero lemon is able to give you that extra 400mah of power by removing NFC. This is fine for me, because NFC hasn't really been utilised in Australia by mobile phones yet, but with the expected release of Google Wallet here in the near future, I'll be keeping my Samsung batteries nearby. This leads me onto how I expect to use my batteries:
I think I will be using my zero-lemon while mostly on (long) day trips for work or fun around the city. I can carry the spare around if I think I may need to, but I doubt it. I also feel there would be less water hazards as compared to at home. At home, I will be using the samsung batteries as I feel I'm far more likely to get the phone wet at home where there are sinks, bathtubs, toilets, buckets of water, etc. I can also switch out on of my now four batteries at any time without having to carry it on me. I think the zero-lemons will become spares once NFC takes off in Australia, assuming I still have the S4A at that point.
The "worlds fastest charger" takes the same amount of time to charge a zero lemon battery as the samsung charger does to charge the samsung battery. This does mean that the charger is a fair amount faster. I haven't tested how long it takes to charge a samsung battery in the "worlds fastest charger" as I don't want to damage the samsung batteries and I am of the belief that the batteries actually limit the charge speed if you're not using an official Samsung charger(?).
One last thing about the batteries. If you look on the bottom of your Samsung batteries, there are little point bits that I assume are there purely to hold the battery in place. The Zero Lemon's are missing these, but the battery is already a very tight fit anyway, but it could be something to keep in mind.
If there's anything else you think I've forgotten, then let me know and I'll edit it in.
thx for your replies!!!! god blessed you
I also received my zerolemon batteries a couple of days ago. I have to say that they work really great and they hold charge a significant bit longer than the original samsung battery. i have now more than a normal usage day.
But it is then true that they are a bit bigger and there is now a small gap in the back cover, under the speaker, where water could sneak in if the phone were immerged.. which is not so cool
Regarding the wall charger I couldnt say much since I live in Europe and it is designed for US wall power points... I might aswell get my hands on an adapter.. no hurry anyway.
all in all they are really good batteries.
cheers
hi would that battery fit the i9295 variant?
i have an S4 active i9295 and was considering buying an original s4 battery but wasn't sure if it would fit my phone,can anyone verify?

This is my review of the Anker Astro Slim3 6000mAh but here is another review posted by Vectron http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388894
Hey everyone. I just wanted to give a review on my experience with the Anker Astro Slim3 6000mAh portable external battery pack. I’ve had this product for roughly 2 weeks now and can definitely say that it is the perfect companion to the N5.
As we know, our N5 doesn’t have the greatest battery life when it comes to on screen time. I found myself having to charge the battery during the middle of the afternoon only after moderate use and then at night when going to bed. I have a handful of Anker battery packs but the reason that this particular one caught my eye was its thinness and the fact that it has a built in micro usb wire/plug. Also, the fact that this thing is rated at 6000mAh was the deciding factor that made me order it.
From the photos, you can see that the Astro Slim3 is very comparable (in all aspects) in size to the N5. It is a fraction thicker than the N5 (and I do mean a very small fraction as it is only .47in), a fraction shorter than the N5 and a fraction wider. Weight wise, it is just a little heavier than the N5, but then again, the N5 is very light to begin with. The battery is incased in a plastic like enclosure which feels very good and it also is a deterrent to fingerprints.
Charging wise (using the built in micro usb cable), this battery pack was able to charge my N5 from 20% to 93% in 60 minutes and to 100% in 72 minutes. I’ve tested this 5 times to make sure this was consistent, and it was. If that isn’t impressive, I don’t know what is! It has dual ports and each port is rated at 1A each. There is no question that this battery pack is capable of high speed charging. There are 4 LEDs on the case that indicates how much juice is left in the pack and it was able to charge my phone 2.25 times before needing a charge itself.
Pricewise, it was a little more expensive than the other brands out there, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Bought it from Amazon for $38 ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CEZJT2E/ref=s9_simh_gw_p107_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0T6WMDN41N069KZDC4BR&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1688200382&pf_rd_i=507846) but it was still worth it given the specs and convenience. If these two things are what you are looking for in a battery pack, then this product is a sure bet.
Let me know if you have any questions about this product.
On to the pics!

This is when it is charging. You can see the 4 LEDs indicating the battery pack has a full charge and you can also see the built in micro usb cable that comes with it
Oh, one thing that I forgot to mention was that this battery pack has 2 ways of charging your phone! One way is to use the built in/attached micro usb plug that comes with it and the other is using your own micro usb plug. The second way will definitely work if you have a case!
From this pic, the right side is where you would plug in the micro usb cable if you can't use the one that is built in/attached to the battery pack.
Very nice. I bought the Anker astro 3 (2nd gen) and always take it places with me if i think theres a chance i'll be running low on juice. This one you got looks a bit thinner (slimmer, duh, obviously) and easier to tote around, but i got the astro to have 2x the capacity and ability to charge my girlfriends S4 at the same time when needed.
Good products tho, charge the phones fast.

I have that one too! Love the fact that it has 3 usb port and it is a beast. However, it is a bit bulky so it has been relegated to my camping/family trip battery pack. This Slim3 is the perfect size to just throw in my backpack everyday for work :good:
I forgot to add this to the original post, but as a comparison in terms of charge time, using the stock charger that came with the N5, @ 60 mins charge time, the N5 was only at 70% (93% for the Anker) and @ 100% charged, the stock charger took 100 mins (72 mins for the Anker). That's a pretty big difference.
I have this sitting in my cart for Amazon and haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. Thanks for the review and photos as well! The combination of the size, capacity and built-in micro-usb port makes it ideal for the N5. I'm not sure how your battery last you a single day though!

Right on. Perfect size and its performance is unmatched, 20% to 93% charged in 60 mins is awesome :good:
Question for anyone that has one of these: will the attached USB cable fit in to the hub of a Nexus 5 that is housed in a case? I'm sure it differs case to case but that would be a major selling point for me. I have a Spigen Neo Hybrid FYI.
Been trying to settle on what battery pack to purchase for a while now. Thought I'd go with the LuguLake but the more I think about it, I don't know how useful wireless charging would be for me while on the go (and the lack of an auto-off function while charging has me hesitant to purchase as well).
Thanks.

Should have mentioned this in my review, but that might be an issue if you have a case that doesn't have a very big opening for the micro usb plug. The end is pretty fat and so might require you to take off the case.

The slim2 version is only rated at 4500mAh and is a little smaller in size. This might be perfect for you if you don't need the 6000mAh version.
Bump! There's currently a promotion going on. Check the first post!
The promotion doesn't apply to Canada =( Why why there no love for Canada! None of their screen protectors are available up here either.
Ordered one of these and its absolutely superb. Just tried it now and its charged my phone from 38% to 95% in 53 minutes..
Anybody use this with their N5 in the Diztronic TPU case? Just curious because the base on that Micro USB plug looks pretty wide.

You can actually charge 2 devices at the same time with the astro slim 3. You can use the integrated cable and your own cable simultaneously to charge 2 devices.
I bought the Anker® 2nd Gen Astro 6000mAh a couple of weeks ago. It can charge a single device at a time. However, it can fast charge using 2 amps with a "smart" charging port. On the other hand, it would be great to have the use of the integrated cable. Hmm, another battery charger?
Little update on this. Went to Cheltenham on Wednesday and it kept in charge from 7am to 2am and I was utterly caning the phone. No idea how I'd have managed without. Brilliant device

same here. this thread just seems like a late night infomercial
I've searched through the forums, but I wanted to hear some recent opinions. I'm looking to replace my oem 2100mah s3 battery with a 2200-2300 nfc capable battery from one of these three companies. I've looked through the reviews on amazon for all of these three replacements, but I can't decide between the three. Has anyone on here had good experiences with any of these brands specifically for an oem replacement battery (not extended)? Anker and ZeroLemon seem to have better reviews for their 2200mah batteries. I want to keep the replacement battery for at least 18 months. So longevity is important for me as many reviews say these batteries start dying quickly after 6 months.

So ordinarily, not having a Galaxy S3 yet, I wouldn't comment on a question like this. However, because you asked about longevity, I decided I did have some relevant experience that might be useful to you. For my Galaxy S 1 (Sprint Epic 4G), I bought an Anker 1800mah hour battery replacement pack containing two batteries and an external charger. I figured I'd use one in my phone and keep the other for a spare. But shortly thereafter, my wife and I upgraded to Samsung Galaxy S2s (Spring Epic 4G Touch), which happen to use the same battery as the S1. So we each took one of the Anker batteries and got rid of the stock ones, since the phones were bought used and their batteries were pretty well shot. It has been over two years since I made that purchase, and the battery life on both of those Ankers is still as good as the day I put them in. I can't see any degradation at all. So I would highly recommend getting Ankers. I am looking to upgrade to an S3 possibly, and that's what I intend to put in it.
Incidentally, although Anker sounds like an Asian name for a company, it's actually a US company founded by people from Google. So this isn't cheap import junk... the stuff actually works. I put their car chargers in both of my vehicles and my phones charge much faster now as well.
I've got an Anker in my S3 LTE as we speak, and they're pretty good. Have bought them previously too for older phones and have always lived up to the reviews.
Can't speak of the other makes you mention, but the Anker ones come with an 18 month guarantee.
I bought several of the Anker units when I was in the US last year and can't really fault them. I don't know if I could tell the difference between them and the stock Samsung one.
I ended up going with a zerolemon 2300mAh model. It only has a 6 month warranty, but I imagine I'll know if I have a dud by then. Anker reviews seem to indicated that they die after about 8 months. I imagine the zerolemons might as well, but I saw far fewer reviews on amazon that stated this. I'm sure Anker makes a good product, but they seem to put a lot of effort into eliminating negative reviews on amazon and encouraging positive reviews by replacing faulty batteries out of the warranty period. That's just my impression.
My friend will come from US and i want to buy one of these batteries. Zerolemon 2300 mah or Anker 2200 mah which one do you recommend guys?

can you post some stats please? I am looking to buy a zerolemon 2300 as wellm thanks.
I don't have a stats app, but now I'm getting over a full day on a single charge. I get to 50% after light use from morning until 7pm. I can leave the phone on overnight without connecting to the charger and be at around 40% the next morning. So far, the zerolemon is doing very well.

I've had the Hyperion 7000 mAh battery for a year now.
I've had the anker 2200mAh battery. Dunno if it's just my usage but the battery just expanded in size. So much so that it doesn't even power on my phone anymore.

As soon a battery begins expanding, it's time to buy another, not try to use it, that's dangerous. For your safety, discard it.
