****ty Chinese battery.
If the "real" one is ~$50 and you see a larger battery for $6 you should know something is wrong with it.

No, it's a ****ty Japanese battery. It's made in Japan if you look at the label.
It's missing NFC too.

I bought a cheap one for my other phone that is labeled as 1500mAh, turned out it only lasted 3 hours and probably only 700mAh.
Get the extended oem battery if you can although it's harder to find now and I wouldn't get it from eBay either.

Actually i found the default for $10 (not on ebay), i was just asking cause that's not the first time i see those batteries.
So i think the only batteries tha will give me more time are the ones that come with the extended case.
Cause i found this one too: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-2200mAh...54291264&sr=8-7&keywords=galaxy+nexus+battery

Well I've been looking around for an extended battery for a few weeks and I can't seem to find one for it. I don't want the 1750mAh battery. I want a 3800mAh extended battery WITH NFC. Anyone know where I can get one?

NFC capable batteries are usually only made by OEMs. Currently Samsung only offers a 200mAh extended battery and I doubt they will be offering another.

NFC is NOT proprietary. It is a technology used by many manufactures like Samsung, Nokia, RIM, etc.. However, aftermarket NFC enabled batteries are uncommon. Most of the time they are only available through OEMs.
So all in all...there's no battery?
nope. your only choice is the 2000 mah extended battery

Look for the Seidio Extended Battery 3500mAH with NFC for the GSM Galaxy Nexus on their website (seidio online in google).
It's a bit pricey ($69.95) but WELL worth it imo...this battery + one of Franco's kernels makes my Galaxy Nexus have INCREDIBLE battery life (4+ screen time easily per day even with gaming and a lot of browsing on 3G) and NFC works with it too, I tried it personally at McDonalds with Google Wallet and it worked fine.
What would it take to put the nfc antenna on yourself? As in pull it off the stock battery and put it on the aftermarket? Or better yet on the inside of the backplate.
Is that tweezers and soldering gun work or would you need factory equipment?

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.

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

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.

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.

I've tried aftermarket batteries of that small of difference, I personally believe samsung makes their stock batteries of higher quality than the 10$ dollar ankers or the likes therof. Therefore, I think its a wash as far as daily phone hours of usage. But I'm pretty confident the cheap aftermarkets won't last as long in the long run. I think the best option is just get a replacement battery, have it charging all day, use your phone to your hearts content, no extra bulk. Then at around 7 or 8 when its getting low if you had a big usage day, pop out the battery, put in the new one. We should be grateful as g3 users that we have this option eh.

Even if Anker claims 2200, it's true rating is under 2050. Stick to stock.

I have purchased 3 of the 2000 mah XPower batteries! They work perfectly fine!! It gives me more life than the stock 1750 mah!
Also its the exact same size as that of the stock battery... So no worries abt an extra back door!
And I got 3 of them + the wall charger for the battery for less than $10 on ebay!!
So now i have totally 4 batteries - 3x2000 + 1x1750 = 7750 mah!!
Definitely worth it rather than holding a clunky phone with an extended 3000+ mah batteries!!

Thanks, I did see that one, although it comes out to $13 including shipping.

That will give me 3 batteries total, which should be plenty of juice.
Anyways, I appreciate you taking the time to look. Thanks!

I'm not sure either, sacthegreat was the only person to respond and he/she said that these batteries did have more capacity. I think it would be very difficult to measure this anyway, since there isn't a direct measurement for mah in the phone. And because the difference in capacity is relatively small (~14%) I'm not sure how easy it is to notice in daily use; changes in how the phone is used could mask the capacity difference.
So I've made up my mind, I think that I'm going to try two different brands of batteries (+charger) and see if one is better than the other

The total comes out to $10 shipped, which is the same price as buying the two pack with charger. So hopefully this will increase the odds of getting at least one good battery
I totally missed the shipping in the link I gave, sorry as I had no intention of buying it and didnt realize shipping wasnt included. I would just get the 2 batteries as I dont think the extra 3rd battery is worth like 30% more but if you need a lot of battery, I guess you can go for it. I dont have any experience with this battery but do with Hyperions and those have worked great for me. I just keep the phone charged and make sure the spare is charged as well. If I did get a bundle with 3 batteries, I think it would be difficult to keep track of all of them and remember which one is charged and which isnt. I like the simplicity of one spare battery and the oem one
It's the stock size itself! And i got a little battery life than the stock battery on my phone! Not a big difference, but i could notice it!

It fits :highfive:
How has the performance been? Reason I ask is many of the cheaper "replacement" batteries usually crap out either in a month of so, or stop charging to 100% all together. Also, why the heck is it so hard to find a OEM Samsung battery (EB-L1F2HVU in US or HVK in Korea) for this phone. I can easily find the shorter battery for the Verizon phone (SCH-I515), but almost nothing (unless you want to pay over $60) for the GT-I9250M phone.
Unless you can read Korean and order the OEM larger 2000 mAh battery (EB-L1F2KVK) directly the majority of us are out of luck.
Where's a good place to buy original Samsung one for cheap?
I found an 2450 mah battery which claimed to fit with the stock battery cover. But I read that its actually worse than stock battery and if you remove the seal around the battery it actually shows a lower mah.. That were reviews for the s2 version but I think it applies to that one too . Ive seen several 2300 mah batterys that claimed the same but assumed it was the same story..
