2000MAh battery - Galaxy S II Accessories

I will be getting my 2000MAh battery next week or the week after and I wanted some case suggestions. Right now I am using the case mate barely there but obviously that won't fit round it.
I want something that feels nice, made of plastic but feels sort of rubbery (like Barely There) and isn't over $20 Australian.
Thanks guys!

Is it regular size battery or bigger ?

Go get a Capdase Alumor Case Jacket. It fits perfectly with the bulkier 2000mah battery.
Actually, I am using both now

Nope it is not the same, it is slightly bigger. If you have a full on case, it might not fit sadly.

The S2, sinks a little bit in the back to make it feel thinner. With the 2000 mAh battery, that makes the back area level with the top area of the phone (where the camera is). It'll fit in virtually any case.

Trident Aegis case fits well and is rubbery edged. Might be a bit more than $20 Aus. though.

Bumper case will fit with Mugen Battery

Pretty self explanatory. Was happy that the SZLF bumper still fitted over the Mugen battery. Photos attached.

whats szlf and where can i find?
battery back looks awesome with the chrome touch
how much maH and how much did it cost?
The chrome bumper was off Ebay and around £25 as i recall. SZLF is just the branding. There are a number of different companies that do metal bumpers of different colours.
As for the battery and back cover, just search for Mugen power and you'll find their website. The Note extended battery is 4500maH, just shy of double the stock battery.

I wonder if this will work with the Hyperion extended battery?
You say it "fits"...
Does it feel right?
Yup, perfectly fine. You can remover the bumper easily with the battery installed. You can even remove the back cover with the bumper on.

I got the same case and think it is pretty crappy, poorly made with an uneven texture on the smooth parts and bad seaming.

To a certain point yes but this was made for the n8000 not my n8013 I just needed something to hold me over till a real case comes out like a otter box or ballistic case as long as this one does what I need I'm cool with it
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Got the same deal. Yeah it's not of highest quality, but fits snuggly and all the holes line up. Would like it a tad "grippier" but it's not bad. I mean it was 6.50 with shipping I set my expectations low. I also haven't seen anything I like but this is plenty adequate until I find something nicer.
Adequate until better comes along, yes.

Looking for this case!

I was wondering is there a flip case like the one the note 2 uses for our epic touch 4gs?
Thanks

Cibo Case,
http://tinyurl.com/a89v4kb
I got this case in clear. it's been awesome. the sides have this grippy texture that makes it tougher to slip out of your hands. i've dropped my phone countless times so far onto concrete & the floor and the case saved it from scratches on the display or sides each time. another great thing is the case doesn't add that much to the overall thickness.

That's not a flip case lol. And by the way, I got that same case for $1.50 from Amazon so you're getting ripped if you're paying $8 o.o
I was looking for the same thing. Ended up going with the ballistic sg case,

I have an otterbox defender and have dropped my phone from 15 feet and it's still alive. If you don't mind the thicker body it's a true asset.

Aluminum/chrome battery cover

i just recieved this aluminum battery cover for my s3 and it looks amazing!
but..it did make my phone a tad bit thicker so my old case doesnt fit anymore
i dont mind that it made it a tad thicker it actually feels better now in the hands
is there any good cases out there that would fit for this? my idea was to buy the
aluminum battery cover then buy a bumper but now im worried that the bumper might
not fit right as well considering my phone is more thicker now
if anybody has any pictures of any cases/bumper that will fit on my phone pls post
some on this thread would gladly appreciate it
Most any full TPU case will probably fit.
Almost no slim/open style cases though. Like the Rock case style probably won't fit.
Where did you get that? I like that!

Otterbox Commuter with OEM Samsung 3000mah Extended Battery

I'm just posting to let people know that I've personally modified my Otterbox Commuter to fit the oem samsung extended battery. I was able to do this by simply using an xacto-knife to cut a battery-shaped rectangle for the extended battery to stick-out through the standard batt. door that came with the device. Then I just slipped the silicone cover over my s3,flipped it over(screen down) and cut around the raised edges on the silicone that outline where the battery was pressing against the silicone, and after that I was good to go. At the moment I'm not able to take pictures.

I would have just left my battery door off instead of cutting it up.

Ya....except for the polycarbonate shell on the commuter which holds the battery , since i cut the silicone and slim battery door to allow for the battery to stick through...

Not possible with this mod. If you read my post it mentions i cut the slim battery door because the EXTENDED battery obviously wouldn't fit otherwise.

I was just meaning to not use a battery door at all, just modding the case and putting on the phone without it. That way, you could always put the stock battery back in without a hole in the back of your phone.

What holds the battery in place? The hard cover of the otterbox?

Yes the hard plastic cover holds the battery in

I gotta admit it is pretty cool. Ive been thinking of getting a extended battery and the main thing holding me back is how bulky it would be and the lack of case options. But I love the commuter case and it seems to work. Does the case create a bump on the back when fully installed?

No, as the polycarbonate isn't flexible, it does NOT create a bump or distort the outer shell in anyway. The shell should remain perfectly flat, if installed correctly

Thank you Op this was perfect, sitting here right now with my fav phone case back on and you would never know the extended battery is hidden in there.

this looks super interesting to me but i would hate to have to cut up my case in case i want to sell it in the future. i was thinking about getting a cheapo battery door to cut up and use but i was wondering if i could get away with not cutting up the rubber portion of the commuter case.

You will need to cut the standard phone back portion of the case and the rubber portion of the otterbox this will bring everything flush with the extended battery. The outer shell of the otterbox acts as the new back cover it works really well i personally couldn't be any happier with the result.

Can't wait to see pictures myself.
Has anyone found those oem Samsung 3000 mah batteries for less than $50 yet?
Galaxy S3, DarthStalker ROM & Kinetic Pulse Kernel.. Perfection.
Could the defender be used if you just didn't put the battery back on? I am currently used a UAG case this way and it works good.

No it wont fit it is a little too thick.
