Hey folks, i wanted to ask everyone their opinion about the battery and back case i should buy to cover the 4400 mAh sized battery i am looking at purchasing.
Im thinking about buying a battery between 4200-4400 mAh but i dont know what manufacturer i should choose... whether it only be Anker, Hyperion, or Ezo? Which is the best battery overall for those extended battery sizes? I have narrowed it down to those manufacturers from what i have read in these forums but i didn't read all 50+ pages of the battery threads.
I would love to find a combo deal where i can get the battery, back cover and case though. I have come across some combo deals on ebay from (U.S.) sellers but the TPU cases that are sold in package deals or sold as a single item show that the TPU cases all fit only up to a 4200 mAh battery?
So what kind of GS3 phone cases (TPU or whatever) have been found to fit 4400 mAh batteries or am i stuck with getting a 4200 mAh battery with TPU case or so to fit that size battery?
I am looking for a case that would fit very snug around the extended 4400 mAh battery because that is my preference. Price for both battery and case does not matter!
Thanks for everyone's input.
Hyperion 4200 battery with TPU case is what I'm using. I'm getting 28-30 hrs of use on a single charge. Works great for me. Not too bulky and good grip.

My ebat extended battery cover feels really weird and it sticks out alightly at places. Does anyone know if the seidio backs are compatible with the ebay or amazon extended batteries?

do not buy ebay extendeds.
i've been using an ebay extended for a few months. sucks. placebo.
i recently started using the seidio extended. it is slightly thicker. night and day difference between ebay and seidio. it's amazing.
the ebay extended is as good or worse than the stock 1400mah
I bought the Seidio 3500 mah battery, and wow, I get over 36 hours on a single charge, with moderate to heavy usage.
As previous poster stated BIG difference between e-bay batteries and seidio. I bought two e-bay extended batteries and they did last longer than stock. I wanted the seidio soft rubber back, looked everywhere could not find just the back on sale. Bit the bullet got the battery and back. BIG difference in battery life. I too also get around 36 hours with moderate to heavy usage. (CM7 with setcpu) To your original question, yes the extended batteries should fit with the seidio. As both of my e-bay ones have fit perfect.
I have bought 3 seidio batt so far and all have done great.
Considering all the negative comments I've read about the cover that comes with the Momax battery, I'm wondering whether I can just use the cover that I already have for the 3500 mAh Spiderfoot battery (which I dont mind).
Thanks!
No, it does not. Yes, I tried.
i have seen extended batteries that were the same size as the stock battery. they didnt require an extended cover or case. are there any for the verizon galaxy nexus. i have an otterbox defender so as long as i can still use it. unless there is a better battery & case combo i should use instead. i would like a very long lasting battery like the 3800 ones but only with a good case too.
No 3800mah battery will fit in the same profile as the original.
ya i know the 3800mah ones wont be the same size, but are there any cases for a nexus that has a 3800mah battery. what is the highest mah i can get thats the same size.
The best batteries will always be OEM batteries since they are usually the highest quality. The 2100mah Samsung extended battery is virtually identical but with it's own (non curved) battery cover but is otherwise identical.
okay so i can get a 2100mah and still use my otterbox case. if i get a battery thats bigger are there any good cases for a nexus with an extended battery.
If you want a big battery and a nice case, look at seidio products. They make a 3800 mAh and a few cases for it. I think the convert would be the closest to an otterbox case.

Verizon has a 2100mAh. It can work with most cases except the slim fit cases.
Although Ringke Slim makes one for the Verizon Extended battery.

I dont want to get a Seidio specific extended battery case since it costs like 30+ and would prefer a cheaper and better looking alternative elsewhere like on ebay. Anyone have any experiences like swapping out the Seidio extended cover for a generic extended battery cover that's cheaper so I can slap on a cheap case.
