I recently bought the Anker 440mAh for the very small price of £9.99

I was skeptical about buying this due to how cheap it is, to anybody looking for a cheap alternative, this is for you.
Click HERE to view the battery on Amazon (UK)
I've seen people saying some batteries will not charge or that it's slow. This isn't, I've charged it a few times and it gets up to the 90%~ mark and remains neutral, it doesn't slow down whatsoever.
I completely forgot to screenshot my battery use after a solid 5 hour Final Fantasy 7 session with still 60%~ remaining.
The battery fit isn't great, it does fit in but it could be a lot better.
The extended case is cheap, it's made out of plastic and very hollow. With the added weight no doubt it would crack if dropped.
To sum up, the battery is well worth the price depending on use. I use it for playing games when I'm just chilling at my friends house, so here's for those who are wanting something for a similar use.
I had this battery, but it was less powerful than the original... weird.
Having used Anker batteries and travel chargers since my s2, i can safely say they can have my money any time, they make affordable but really great products. There batteries certainly last longer than stock.

Really? I've seen people slating it but I was extremely surprised with the performance - and the price!

If it was, you had a dud. I have this battery and it works great.
WOW, 4400 mAh are good. The only problem is the expansion cover..doesn't look very well
But with 4400 you will have more power of course

The problem with the cover I had is that nobody makes a case for it. I'm using a Q cell cover with mine.

I have this as well, the back covers they come with are not the best quality, and the battery is great, however it blocks the NFC capability. Ordered a Zerolemon 6300 Mah from Amazon a few days ago, should be here Thursday.

thats ridiculous
doesnt even look that bad
I'll buy one if it comes with the back cover hell yeah.
Considering their larger capacity "stock" size batteries are not what they are rated at, I think I'll stick to my HTC brand 2750 until someone actually gets one of these and measures it out.
Not worth the premium price if you're only getting, say...2800 mah compared to what they are advertising....
Considering since it says it has "double" the factory battery, I'd be someone tests this out a few hundred mah lower than advertised.

These are a complete ripoff, dont waste your money.
Anyone notice the picture says 1500mAh.
Nice.....
Why not just strap a car battery to it...Maybe we can go back to the days of bag phones, and backpack batteries...

OOhh then my phone might actually last until i go to sleep like most phones do.
Considering how the TB uses the battery cover as an extended antenna, I think I'm going to stick with the OEM extended battery and battery cover this time.

hahahha omg nice catch 1500.... haha
sooooo bulkyyyyyy........
I stopped using my extended battery. It's too damn bulky. I was actually surprised by how good the stock battery is.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaTO8_KNcuo
I don't get it. The OEM batteries are so small and thin. I just keep an extra one in my second pocket at all times.
That looks so stupid but I might have to invest in one because the terrible battery life on this phone makes me insane. Im even tempted to go back to my droid.

No doubt it's just a placeholder, since they didn't have a real image at the time. Not that anyone really believes it'll be 3200 anyway...
How can their possibly still be people out there who believe Seidio's claims about their batteries?
I saw an amazing product on AMZER.CO.IN Its an emergency/backup charger not only for P500 but also any handheld portable device. Most distinguishing feature of it is it can charge on A/C as well as on solar energy. Now you don't have to worry about the battery of your O1 because this device called Amzer® 3500 mAh Battery Backup Solar Charger will take care of it.
ITS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I THINK EVERY SMARTPOHNE USER MUST BUY THIS.
SRY TO POST IT WITHOUT A VIDEO OR LINK, BEING A NEW NOOB ON XDA, CURRENTLY I AM BARRED TO DO SO.
let me give you a hand http://www.amzer.co.in/Amzer-3500-mAh-Battery-Backup-Solar-Charger-P83981.htm
Brilliant. A solar charger that -- let me quote from its manual -- should not be exposed to fire, sunshine and other heat sources.
Thanks!!
Reviews on amazon are disappointing. :/
If it takes 12 hours to charge in Florida, I'm probably looking at a week here in Seattle.

I got one like this, tooks me one day to charge a small low consumption cell phone in Spain with a huge direct sunlight ... also, the battery is dying quickly (heat is not good for batteries, and using a mirror to avoid direct sunlight is not good also because the solars panels are getting f* hot ...).
Never used it on my P500, was too afraid to break the battery.

its 1/3rd the price of the phone, lol, fck it.. XD
Pricey
for that price you can buy a basic functionality phone which gives good battery backup

Interesting concept. Needs to evolve a little bit. Good idea for an emergency situation.
what do you supposed the likely hood of it working with the P505/P506?
mAh is hight

A bit of an overkill isn't it? Might damage my phone haha. Someone else should try it out for us!

just google the title of the thread and ull find a couple of shop
seems kind of sketchy... i did a quick look around on it and can't really find anything about warrenty, returns or one single review :S personally i would not risk it. that's just imo.
What ever it is, the concept is nice. I would love to get such a cover if that really exists...cover + external batery with Off/On option is a great idea...
Look for 'EEB-U20BBUG' Samsungs original battery case for I9100.
Btw, this doesn't fit with the extended battery.

the samsung one is only 1300 mah...
but does it work with the extended 2000 mah battery
Hmmm ,I'm pretty sure I've seen one of those selling for about 25$ or something here in Baghdad.
I'm also pretty sure the capacity was around 1000 mah if the retailer is to be believed.
It looks Identical to this photo though ,with the power,button drawing my attention when I saw it.
Can't tell you anything about actual performance though as I'm already stuck with the over priced - under performing samsung 1300 mah power pack.
I don't think this is fake or capable of damaging the phone ,I've asked the retailer and he said that he tried it and that it's rather good ,and I don't think that he was lying either.
I dont think they have battery cover with that capacity... I found cases like that in ebay but the capacity are below 1650mAh
I'd definitely be interested in obe of those!
simple and great
a friend of me just bought this and it works awesome. its nice looking and battery is sooo much better
edit: its a bit different than on your picture
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/genuine-...0-extended-battery-power-pack-case-p28950.htm
mate ,this one is the original samsung power pack which is completely different.
I have this model and it sucks ,says up to 300 hrs standby ,when infact it will drain in about 8 hrs even when attached to a fully charged phone.
So tempted... but 54 quid is a fairly expensive solution to my battery woes.
I'm looking to buy one for when i'm traveling to charge my phone/tablet and looking for suggestions on brands/models/etc. Probably don't really want to spend much more than ~$50 on one. Only requirements are that it isn't too big and bulky to not fit well in a laptop travel case. And the more mAh the better obviously. Thanks.

There are a lot of brands out there. Morphie seems to be one of people's top picks - probably because it looks super nice and marketed well. I personally have never own one and think it's a bit on the pricey side. I have a Ravpower one with 10,400 mah which was mentioned in this thread if you wanna take a look. Works great. Not heavy at all which was surprising. And can charge my nexus 7 about 2 times before i need to charge again. Think Ravpower have smaller ones too, but 10,400 might be their largest capacity charger.
These portable power chargers seems to be everywhere now. You can probably find some in stores too. Think I saw a low mAh one at Lowes the other day by either Duracell or Energizer, but these might not be best for heavy charging.
I just ordered 2 antec powerup 3000's apparently they have Panasonic batteries. I will report back! :beer:

9000mAh Portable Charger - charge 2 devices at once
There is a portable charger from Trident Case that allows you to charge 2 devices at once...one port is for small devices like a phone (1.0A) and the other is for larger devices like tablets (2.0A)...all you need is a USB plug to charge...it comes with a micro USB cable. It's originally $99 but they are having a sale through Feb. 18th

It comes in 3 different colors: Pink, Blue and Black
So I recently receieved a 4300mah battery from tmart.com for days when i just need that extra amount of power when i'm going to be away from an outlet for some time. The battery has proven to stand up to some of my heavy usage, which included MANY texts, a mixture of 4G and wifi, a lot of Netflix high def video streaming (2-3 hours worth), and well over an hour of music streaming via bluetooth. After some days of use, I've decided to throw up some average stats that I got, and I'm quite pleased with them!
First, here's some images of the battery to compare to the stock samsung battery. yes, it's a bit thicker, but it comes with a back door replacement. The back door replacement is kind of a pain to take off (since it doesn't flex like the stock one) but it doesn't seem too bad.

as you can see, it's pretty much double the size of the stock battery.
and here's my usage for the last day i've used it:
i probably could've gotten atleast another 30-45 minutes out of that 10% judging by how it was draining throughout the day. Either way, for the stuff I did with it, it was quite impressive!
for such a low price, this battery seems pretty damn good!
the only con that i'm seeing so far is lack of NFC. but of course, for a battery that's only around $8.00, NFC isn't to be expected.
other than that, it's a pretty good deal!
check it out here:
http://www.tmart.com/4300mAh-Extend...er-for-Samsung-I9300-GALAXY-SIII_p157061.html
check it out. $5.99...price drops? Really cheap.
More updates? How is the cover looks like in the phone? Is it awkward.
Looks good but I can get upto nearly 5 hours screen time with my standard batery and my setup as in my Sig.
What rom and all are you using?? custom kernel??
I have i9300 seems you have LTE version?
Are these the same??

Has anyone gotten a wireless Qi charging receiver pad working with these bigger batteries? If so how'd you go about it?
