Seidio slim extended battery for Atrix coming soon!

http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basixxmtatr.htm
Ill be picking up one of these to make the already amazing battery life better!

Any pics for this anywhere? I got a 'coming soon' image only.

Not really concerned with pics as much as I am specs.... we're already at 1930mAh, wonder how big the Seidio is gonna be!

I don't trust the mah ratings seidio give out. They are usually lower than advertised once tested.

If its anything like the galaxy S batt/batt panel, it's gonna be a hilarious sight to see...

I almost fell outta my chair from laughter when the timer hit like 1:08
That **** is like 2.3cm thick!

now thats what i call bricking your phone...but the seidio is not going to need a new back cover if its anything like their other slim extended battery.
loztboy is right if you look at some of the threads about testing the mah rating the oem batteries always have more. if the siedio is the same size as the oem it wont last longer.

I've seen too many complaints about Seidio not holding up over time, I wouldn't bother trying one.
I'm sure there are other batteries that are just as good as the Moto branded ones, but there's so much outright JUNK and counterfeit, and bad lithium batteries don't always die, sometimes they catch fire or explode.
Nope, I'll stick to Moto on this part. From a trusted supplier, not an anonymous one either.

Here's a link for this guys, hope this helps

AWESOME 3M Textured Skin!!!

Just thought I'd share with you guys. I saw a post by John.Smith so I actually ordered one and it looks even better in person. This this fits so well on my Captivate. It seems as though it's precision cut by a CNC Machine. It's almost an exact fit. I haven't seen any better for our phone yet. The texture actually gives it a little more grip so it won't so easily slip out of my hand. And I've bought a ton of skins. The material is extremely high quality. It's really easy to put on! It only took me about 5 minutes and now I have an awesome looking phone!!! I LOVE THIS SKIN!!! You guys should check him out on ebay. It's well worth the money!!!

hmmm...looks pretty decent... think i will buy this, though i am also planning on getting a 3500mah battery + cover.i m guessing this wont fit, right? what a dilemma!!

Well... if you're thinking about upgrading to one of the extended batteries then one way to make it so that the battery cover looks alright with this decal would be to make one cut and have it be 2 pieces. with the pattern thats on it if you were to just cut along one of the lines and have the gap somewhere toward the bottom or the top it would still look pretty decent. I've actually been thinking about getting an extended battery myself. I might just order one tonight and then do this myself. I will post this pics when i do.

oh. and another way around buyin the extended battery would just be to buy another stock OEM battery. you can pick one up for about $12-13 now. that's what i have. and depending on the rom you're running you can get pretty awesome battery life. I'm running firefly and phoenix roms and i get between 20-35 hours out of a single charge and i never even have to use my spare battery.

Yes same here, I also ordered an extended battery. I just can't be bothered 2 carry an extra battery...too lazy...

ya totally. i think i've only carried my spare once because i went camping. well. if you like speed, stability, and awesome battery life check out the phoenix and firefly roms. you wont need the extended or spare batts.

actually it covers literally most of the phone. its way better fitting than any of the other skins out there so far. I've bought a ton of these and none of them are this high of quality. you would seriously need to feel this thing to believe it. the guy who's making them is giving $5.00 off if you take some pics of them and post them somewhere on the net. so really it doesn't cost much at all.

Mugen Extended Battery (Lots of Pics)

Hey guys,
Just got the mugen extended battery in the mail. Their regular shipping somehow took longer than 3 weeks and I still have not received the item, so I asked them to reship using FedEx. Guess what, it took 2 days to get to Richmond Hill, Canada, which is just north of Toronto.
Anyways, just though I'd upload some high quality pics with measurements so if any of you guys are planning on buying it, you guys have a sense of how things ll look when you get it.
Feel free to update this with your own pictures.
Update 1: More pictures of battery on phone. Post #10
________________________________________________________________________________
After using this for some times, I believe I can give a rather full rounded review of this case
Make and Looks:
After looking at the pics below, it is definitely safe to conclude that if you cannot stand additional bulk to the galaxy nexus, this extended is definitely not a recommended, as it does double the thickness of the phone. Also, this battery is not for those who are seriously concious of the way their phones look, as this is, to be honest, not the best looking extended battery pack out there.
HOWEVER, if you are like me, and enjoy funtion over form, it would be my pleasure to say that this battery is definitely recommended. The back casing of the Mugen Power battery mimicks the back of the galaxy nexus to provide users with enough grip so as to reduce the slipperiness and possibilities of drops. Also, the battery which is rated at 4000mah does add some weight to the phone, which to me is a great addition as it just feels that the phone is more secure in my hands with the added weight. The battery, when installed on the phone, depicts the resemblence of a humpback whale, which not to say is ugly in anyway, it is simply Unique. The kickstand is a bit flimsy, but that is just an additional use of the new backing to watching movies and videos, so can't complain there.Lastly, the camera holes are perfectly cut out for the 5MP camera, it does not affect picture quality in anyway, but does take away from the original good looks of the phone.
Usage
To be honest, the GNEX isn't among the top performing android handsets in the battery department. Getting through a full day with my full usage has always been a problem, no matter what brightness setting I set. Battery times for me has always been 13-16 hours with 3-4 hours standby, and that is already after using franco kernel and aokp.
Now, with the Mugen Power battery, I can say this: I have a GMAXXXXXXXXXX. The battery after 3 - 5 charge cycles is AMAZING! Unlike other cheap extended batteries, I would say that mugen lived up to their name, as this battery is more than what they described as double my battery life. With it, I get by two days with super super super heavy usage including a ton a gaming, videos, and auto-sync and wifi on 24/7. That is around 2 days 3 hours with 7-9 hours screen on with the screen at around 50% brightness!!
Would I recommend?
Yes, I would definitely recommend this extended battery to anyone out there. If the price of said Mugen Battery is within your acceptable budget limit, there is no other battery that compares to what Mugen is delivering. And as the old saying goes, "You get what you payed for".

Thanks for this, please post back your results

The seido doesnt even look good on it. try the SGP Neo Hybrid, cut the back flap off, so the battery sticks through , and that way, it looks sexy and it provides the functionality you need
Also, a fellow xda member has posted a picture about how it would look

What's with the lip around the back? is it because of your cut? BTW, whats the material on the back of the seido? it doesnt look plastic..is it matte or something?

Yes it's because of the cut. I could probably cut a little more to make it more streamlined.
The seidio with NFC has a soft touch battery cover. It matches the case and feels great in the hand.

Has anyone got one of these? do they have a 3000mah battery aswell as the one in the phone? so like 5400mah all together? it seems like you keep the stock battery in then the 3000mah on this charges the stock battery when its getting low, I may be wrong though. It doesn't seem like it adds that much thickness to the phone well compared to the mugen 5000mah? The item doesn't really give much away really, so unsure of what it actually is.

Looks cool. I might get this

cool
and the price is reasonable

Seems like almost 2 weeks for delivery tough
Will post some xtra pictures , and tell you guys about the performance
ps. I am using this right now : http://amzn.to/JJZA8e , yeah its SO bulky ..!

If the phone is dropped would there be any chance that the port on the bottom of the phone could be damaged? That's what I'm a bit worried about.

Very big fan, and I won't often stick my neck out on such matters. I used my phone a lot today (although not my craziest of usage days) and I was on 81% at 7pm. I told my girlfriend (whose iPhone was dead) but she didn't care at all

Same issue with my friends phone.
Battery works just fine , but the cover won't click in properly.

I have one of the hyperion extended batteries, it works great but make the phone look like a turtle, spoils all the benefit of the nice slim design the note has going for it. However, it does sit better in the hand though. I use it occasionally, like on some days when I know I'll be out using my GPS and data heavily and still I have like 40% remaining. Does not double the battery life but more like 1 2/3 good thing is I can use my phone heavily for the entire day and not wonder if I will have juice remaining.

i'm planning to buy a new battery. i will remember of this 5000mah. thank you.

I do own one! This battery rocks!
Tremendous Capacity! It lasts 2 days with ease (with minor use) :good:
Believe me when I say this, but this battery is DEFINITELY worth the money!
Something else that you should pay attention (very important!) is the quality of the cover, since it is unique with your battery and there is no replacement!
I used another battery like this before with a "sweat" kind of plastic cover and with no side stand. Bigger cover, more difficult to handle, which I was forced to remove afterwards, due poor quality and increased wear.
THIS SPECIFIC cover, is covered by an excellent quality and increased strength!
It is surely a good buy!
