So I actually checked my battery just to make sure what it was and I found out I was duped by Sprint! So I have a 1500 instead of an 1800, but the thing is I was actually getting decent battery life. How much will the extra 300 mAh make a difference?
How should I go about changing my battery to an 1800?
People who have both said they did notice a difference between the two. Not much, but noticeable.
haha, you made me double check my battery but I do have a 1800 mah. Obviously your battery will last longer with an 1800mah vs 1500mah but exactly how much, I do not know.
If it really matters too you, you should try convincing sprint to send you a 1800 battery. or you can always check amazon. 1800 E4GT batterys come out to around $25

Hey I was thinking of getting some extra batteries. Seems it is now 3 batteries + charger for 11 bucks:
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/view...cmd=VIDESC&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=42795690575
Have you, or anyone, used these? Are they official Samsung batteries as shown in the picture? If not, how is the quality? Would love to hear from some people. Sorry for slight OT...

Try calling sprint or going to a sprint store and see if they will do anything about it. There's a post somewhere in the forums and i think people had success getting a new battery from sprint.

Alright, as long as they work as good as the OEM ones, I'm fine with that...
9 bucks is worth the risk, I'm sure they will get me out of an emergency at least once..

I would try this first, since it would be free.
http://www.amazon.com/Sprint-Extend...dible/dp/B004RXIL1G/ref=pd_luc_sbs_02_02_t_lh
It claims to be a Sprint 1800mah extended battery for $7. Some of the reviews I read sounded great but reviews can easily be skewed, So I am hoping someone here has some information for me
If I were you I would just go with the anker 1700mah ones. There are a lot of fakes on Amazon/eBay that claim to be OEM. The ankers are cheap, and reliable.
Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking but I.figured I'd ask first thanks

Hey everybody, I googled extended batteries for the gs3 & came across a mugen branded extended battery. I have never heard of it till' today, & have never purchased from them before, do any of you guys have one, or know someone who does? I'm looking for an extended battery but without all the bulk, any recommendations?
I actually have this.
I can't really whether there is a difference. I feel it is about the same or slightly better. Is there an app that can measure? If so, I can let you know.

check out my thread with the anker battery tested and proven more than stock...i dont want to talk down on mugen as i have not used their battery on this phone.
isn't this battery 3.7v while stock is 3.8v? i don't think you will get much benefit from this battery over stock.

I've heard of anker batteries before, just never used them myself, do they have nfc as well?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I don't know what link you are referring to. I bought it straight from mugen.
My advise is just get a replacement stock battery. I think the additional amount doesn't justify it.
I just can't tell the difference.

A link would help.
3200mah, thicker than the regular one?
no way you'll be able to get that kind of capacity without making the battery bigger.. almost all aftermarket battery claiming above 2200mah are selling snake oil, but i'd like to hear back with the results you get.
That's what I was thinking but it's definitely same size it doesn't have nfc and seller recon it has roughly 30% more battery power but I will share results if its shift well I lost $20 but I will try argue with seller and say it's not working right

Usually it came with custom back cover. Standar battery is 2200 mah (or 2400 mah, i'm forgot), so 3200 mah will definetly bigger than original battery.

Not sure if this will work properly because it's a link from the mobile site, but I ordered this a few days ago. Seems to be what the OP is referring to. http://payments.mobileweb.ebay.com/...emId=120959044441&nFB=true&trxId=941382201002

did they ever come in? how are they?
Quick question...
It hardly holds its charge and often doesn't fully charge overnight when I've woken up in the morning.
If this sounds like a dead battery to people, what I need to know is how do I go about finding a legitimate battery online?
Are the ones on these accessories shops online any good?
Help, please!

Just look for one on amazon. They always have good stuff. I'd also advise you to look into an extended battery. They aren't much more, but do a lot more when it comes to battery life. Hope I helped

You totally helped. And, yes, I was hoping to get an extended battery as well I just can't have it be thick or else it won't fit in my case. I guess anything over 1400maH is fine. I hear the batteries by "Anker" are supposed to be the best? Is that true?

Anyone know how I can get Anker batteries in Canada? Seems like none of the vendors will ship batteries here.

Just wanted to configrm - they are awesome indeed.
I've upgraded mine to a 1650mAh Mugen Power within the last week. It's new and the discharge curve is epic, especially compared to my stock battery that stared to bulge and hold about 8hrs worth of charge. This thing easily lasts me all day, so far. It will happily extend the life of my device as I upgrade to the Nexus 4 in the spring and pass this down to my mother.

I just ordered the 1550 Anker off ebay. Glad to hear they are quality. I found some 1900mah ankers on Amazon after the fact. Anyone have experience with the 1900mah Anker?

I have the Anker 1550ma, but didn't know there was a 1900....does that require a new back battery cover, or is is the same size battery as the 1550?
A 1900 would be awesome. My original battery hardly lasts through a workday anymore.

I just recently shipped the anker battery 1550 mah. From what I see the battery is better than stock battery. I'm just curious, but how much hours are you guys getting with your battery ( from full charge to 2 %)?
