Anyone use the 3800 battery for our phone? I saw it cheap on amazon but how much bulk does it add? Is is worth it for additional battery life?

It's depends which one you are talking about. There are many brands. I have used Incredicell and Trexcell. Both were good at first but then performance went down after a month or so. I ordered a QCell so I'm going to see how that one works out. As for the bulk, it does add a hump but I like it. It feels more secure in my hand. But that's just my opinion

I would like to get and extended battery for my phone... I was going to get the 18 dollar one from amazon... But I didn't like the way it looked... I came across this one on the link....

wanted to know if anyone has used it or their opinion on it... I know its a little more expensive but it looks a lot more slick...

One of my friends ordered that battery....almost doubled his battery life....he said he did not like the new door though...too slick

They do almost double the battery life, but also increases the thickness of the phone. It'll lose its sleek and sexy lines. Not worth it if you ask me.

Yes it will increase almost a millimeter....but honestly its really not the noticeable after you get used to it IMHO

I have the $18 one and it just fits in your hand so well lol XD. I read a lot about the seido and trexcell batteries and seido seems to have almost as good battery life as the trexcell which is 3800mah. I went with the trexcell because it still great battery life and is cheaper XD.

Every seidio extended battery I've ever got, the battery door is thin and the battery door never fully snaps shut. I've had good luck with the trexcell extended. The door snaps perfectly. The thickness of the plastic feels decent unlike the seidio. Trexcell also makes a tpu black glossy case for the extended battery. I have both and they are good. The finish of the battery door is the same as the plastic on the back where the external speaker is. Its like maybe 20 for the battery and door and 10 for the case. That's my suggestion. Like I said, the fit, finish, and thickness of the trexcell is much nicer than the seidio.
I'm looking for the best cheap battery, and possibly a charger for it. Maybe something with more power than the OEM one, and something that either comes with a back cover or one that doesn't add bulk.
I've thought about this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0069RQMWS/ref=redir_mdp_mobile but I don't really want the bulk. Any suggestions? And any feedback on the battery I linked to?
*edit* I have the white device. So if it's bulky and come with a back cover, I would prefer a white back cover.

Has anyone found any cases with a built in battery? There are some pretty good ones for the iPhone and was wondering if our phone had any.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
There's a few on amazon. I ordered the chromo battery case. All the battery cases have bad reviews because of overheating and not lasting long. I can confirm both are correct. The case is suppose to hold a 2100 MAH charge, but with a full charge it last for about an hour of charging (more or less). NOT WORTH IT.

What he said. Work bought me one of the extended battery cases. Its crap for protection, external battery is stated to have 3200mA but I don't see it. I came from the iPhone 4 with a 2800mA mophie case. If mophie is releasing a case, I would hold out for that. If mophie is true to form, the case will provide good protection WITH a reliable external battery.

The last battery I got is from Batterybay.net for a 3000mAh battery with a thick stupid cover.
I found that they released a 4300mAh battery with a flip cover on it. You may give it a try. But the cover is really a bit stupid and thicken the phone.

If I was you, I'd buy a spare battery for now until mophie releases it. There are photos of it already but not release date has been given

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Unfortunately there aren't any that don't make the phone look pregnant. I think you can find 1950mah batteries but that's not gonna give you more than an extra hour I would think.
I found a 2650mah slim extended battery from China on ebay, is it good?
Sorry, I can't post the link yet because i still a New member in this forum..
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The 2650 is certainly a fake. I saw those too, gold battery or something like that. I tried the Andida 2300 and got a little longer battery life but it crapped out after a month or two causing random reboots.

Bummer on the Andida, I was hoping they were good. I've had it on my eBay watch list for a while. Anyone else with feedback on the Andida?

There is actually a 2000 mAh battery out there. I bought it myself, but as other people said, if you do the math, it only adds about an hour, so it wasn't really worth it. If you really want an extended battery, go for the ones with the extra bulk, or buy two 1800 mAh batteries to swap during the day.
How about 2500mah Galilio or 2520mah "Sporting Persistence" on ebay?

I got used to the bulk of the Qcell 4100 rather quickly. No problem going full day with heavy use. My 2 cents.

I hope the Andida doesn't get random reboots after a couple months! I got the Andida 2300 about 6 weeks ago and so far so good. I'm getting about 10-15% better battery life and am getting no random reboots (yet).

Agreed, the Anker batteries (two pack with charger for less than $20) has been great. I have been using them for about 2 months now and they are doing just fine.
I have to agree about the Anker batteries as well. Be careful about what you buy off ebay though. I bough a 3 pack of supposedly 1800mAh batteries off Ebay and they were all ****. I compared the physical size of the batteries with the oem one and they were all thinner and lighter. Get the Anker ones. I bought an Anker one about a month ago and so far it's working great.
Yeah I just unwrapped a cheap 1800mah battery I got off ebay and the markings underneath indicated its a 1500. Its also skinnier than stock.
I just picked up some EzoPower brand batteries and they appear to be real 1800. Need to give them a few more charging cycles to get a better idea.
Question: can any model battery of the gn2 series be used in the sprint model? I.e. n7100 or do you have to make sure to use a carrier specific model extended battery? Thanks in advance for your insights.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
Ok Thanks. The reason that I ask is that I recently purchased an extended battery of eBay and I didn't notice that the title said n7100 battery, so I was curious to find our if certain gn2 models had exclusive batteries.

You can use any of them. I have the Hyperion 6200mAh extended battery which is great, and the back cover is not as bad as people say it is but definitely not as good as the original.

Yes I agree I bought a cheap ebay extended and it was horrible. Get on Amazon and get the Hyperion the other guy is talking about it is amazing I love it over my ebay one. If I hadn't bought a protective case and wanted to save money I would have gotten the Zerolemon instead but the Hyperion is hard to get below 50% in a full day with heavy use.
