OEM Red Battery

I use a clear case and leave the battery cover off and just swap batteries instead of charging the phone.
I hate the black battery and would like another red battery. Anyone have a cheap source for a legit 1500 mAh battery?

What about the rest of us?
I'm interested in finding a red battery as well if anyone has any sources.

That looks real...fake. But idk...if anyone wants, I have 2-3 extras from friends/myself that I can sell...pm me if you're interested...I bought some aftermarket ugly black ones...I like having a bunch that I can swap out.
***edit...idk if this violates the terms of use...if so, please delete this...also, I will give these away for whatever they're worth...which idk what they're worth...

Those look like the 2x1500ma batteries from tuttoit with a different sticker...

Sorry I can't believe I missed the word OEM in your thread title. Yes they're not sold as oem. I got them and so far they work great. They give me a bit more run time than the stock battery.

i also ordered from chichitec. shipped super fast from the bay area in california, where i also happen to live. Using Juice Plotter with these and the original battery, i can see a VERY slight improvement (probably a couple hours) with normal use. you can't go wrong with the price though.

Extended battery case or battery?

I'm wondering if any company has released a extended battery case or an extended battery for the galaxy s3

http://www.amazon.com/Onite-4500mAh-Extended-Battery-Smartphone/dp/B0082BYK8M

For my old phone, I had really a low battery and I never had a chance to charge it. I bought an extra battery, but i still had a low battery problem since the original one was almost dying. I had to buy an portable battery functions as extended battery. I used it all the time until i got a new phone. Not sure if you need a battery for galaxy s3 for now. But, this is the battery that I used for my old phon in case you might be interested in. http://www.spigen.com/etc-accesories-2/kuel-series/sgp-portable-mobile-battery-kuel-f60q-series.html

My galaxy nexus requires a battery with NFC antenna built in or you lose the NFC functions of the phone. Im guessing S3 needs it also.

Would love that if they didn't add much bulk.

I'm waiting for an Anker branded one. I've always had good luck with those -- especially with my GS2. I like the fact they are the same physical size as OEM batteries.

I am waiting for Samsung to release an OEM battery. Hopefully 2500-2600MaH

The only thing about the OEM branded batteries is that it's very hard to find cases to fit with the different battery cover.

Isn't this the same case with large 3rd party batteries?

Some, but not all of them. Anker usually produces one for each model that will still fit under the same battery door.

Oh that's awesome, I wouldn't mind it not having NFC, I already have it disabled to save battery

Has Samsung not released the OEM batteries and desktop chargers yet?

Good to know. Only thing I am worried about with my s3 will be battery life. Lol with my maxx I have gotten cocky and turned off juice defender. My maxx can go balls to the wall and still last all day.

Watch out for onite batteries. I bought two spare ones from them and they did not fit in the galaxy, much too wide. Had to send them back
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA

when I bought my s3 last week they had genuine samsung batteries for sale for $39 ($AU) which is about the same in $US.
Given that it is easy to replace, and how much I will probably spend on cases and car mounts, an extended battery would have to be very good and cheap.

Im waiting for a Power Case cover(w/ Kick Stand) with 4000mAh Battery
my 3000mAh case just gives me 60% of battery life on my Galaxy Note

Is it something like this?? What is your experience with them??

Is laptopmateUK seller any good?
Most of the battery's who claim that are bigger in capacity and last longer are not that good
Thanks

Indeed the 'Onite' batteries do not fit. But there are replacement batteries made by Hyperion, only 100Mhz more than standard but still a nice backup. See the Youtube video below.

Where can I find a stock GS3 battery?

I want to buy an OEM battery for my gs3 so I can replace it when its out of battery. Could someone find a link to the actual one that you find in shipped devices? I dont want a knockoff or an extended battery. Thank you.

23$, 11 left in stock
I actually like my QCell 2300 better. Its battery life is equal if not abit better and only 10$. also has nfc

Here's just the battery http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-EB-L1G6LLAGSTA-Galaxy-Standard-Battery/dp/B0089VO7OM
I recommend the extra battery kit though, it doesn't cost much more and it comes with a charger that also acts as a stand http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-ETC-CP1G6LGSTA-Galaxy-Battery-Charging/dp/B0089VO7QU

Thanks you two, I'll be getting both of them.
EDIT: Actually the charging thing comes with a battery so I'll only be getting that

just wondering, does this samsung oem charger for the s3 charge other samsung batteries as well? say i wanna use this with my t-mo s2 battery, would it fit and charge or this charger is ONLY for the s3?

I assume that its only for the S3 because the batteries are most likely different sizes. But you would have to ask someone who knows

Battery Advice

Hey guys with so many options and reviews I am so confused on which battery to get. Currently I have the 4200 hyperion battery but honestly it is way to big for me and I miss the slim GS3 feel. So whats the best standard battery to get, should I get an regular Samsung 2100 or maybe the anker 2200? Also what is the best slim charging case out there? I found one on ebay for 16 but dont know how reliable that will be.

I'd say get the Anker 2200, slight improvement over stock while keeping the original size.

Okay cool and, whar, kind, of external, charger, case, do you recommend?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I don't really use charging cases so I wouldn't know. I use the Anker 4400 so I don't need any charging devices, personally I don't really find it adds that much bulk with extended batteries.

I just bought a cheap 2300mha replacement battery + an external charger on Ebay. Total costs were like 6 Euros. I will test them and provide you with details once they get to me

or you can wait for the 3000mah samsung battery coming up next month
It will stay slim

Size difference

I saw some pictures of the 3000 battery on one site but showing that Samsung has not released it yet I don't know if I should use that as guide material. However, the picture shows that the battery is ever so slightly thicker. Your phone may work on a soft case but a hard case, not so much. But eh, we will see once it comes out. COME ON SAMSUNG LETS GET IT OUT HERE!

I have found out from Samsung website themselves that the new 3000 battery will come with an extended cover so it will increase in size for sure. So any other choices for slim battery if not i think i might go with the anker 2200 over the OEM!

ive got an 2400 motec battery and im pleased with it
its slightly bigger than the stock battery but fits the stock cover aswell
