The Hyperion battery does and in getting at least 2 days out if it with moderate use always on 4g

Thanks, Do U Happen To have A Link For Amazon Or Ebay, Or Wherever U Found It?
I use the 3800 seido battery with NFC and it works fine. Just do a search on amazon. Don't buy generic Chinese crap. It won't last as long and its not a true 3800.
The supposed 2100 extended is a joke. The phone comes with 1850. They expect an extra few ma to last longer...don't bother.
I can go a full day with my seido. U pay a little more but its worth it to not have to charge all the time.

I believe you can search in Amazon the Samsung Spring Extended NFC battery or something along those lines, and it should come up. That's what I did with my Verizon phone.

I'm looking for a Galaxy Nexus extended battery in the 2000-3000mah category. I don't want the Uber-thick 3800mah Seido but I don't want the extra 100-200mah for the Samsung extended (doesn't seem worth it even with a half-priced battery), I'm kind of looking for something in between (like a sweet spot) maybe in the range of 2500-3000 would be ideal. I'm sure there will need to be a separate case for it.
Any suggestions?

I wish there was a 2500 option for the gnex too. I'm cutting it close at the end of the day and it would be awesome if I didn't have to worry about conserving enough for an emergency.
I purchased 2 2500mA batteries from Hong Kong. There is no NFC. Also, the batteries work with the original back cover!! I should receive them by the end of the week hopefully. I am currently using a 3800 extended battery and the battery life is unbelievably great. I am hopeful that the 2500 will get me through a day of heavy use. I bought them off eBay from "weil368".

Will update once I receive and put to use!

Just curious, do you have the LTE Verizon Nexus or the GSM version?
I have the GSM Nexus. The first day was OK. Definitely better than the original battery but no where near as good as the 3800mAh behemoth. I was able to make it through a day of light to moderate use. Hopefully after a few cycles they will get better.

How much screen on time was that? I switched to teerom and have gone from 6 hours of battery life up to 15 or so with stock battery. I think it may be the apex launcher.

It was 2:50 of screen time. For whatever reason I cannot upload the screen shot of the screen usage.

Guys ... please don't be fooled by high amperage in the same OEM body volume adverts.
There is NO 2500mAh in the world that will fit in the original 1750mAh volume. That technology is not yet accessible.
I'm 120% positive (and I can bet on this) that those "2500mAh" batteries have the same stored power (if not less) than the OEM 1750mAh ones.
If you get lucky, you may end up having initially a battery slightly stronger than the oem one which will deprecate in a matter of weeks and it will end up a lot weaker than the OEM.
I've been wondering about something for a while. Is there a technical reason why Li-Ion batteries must be in rectangular shape? Looking at the ginormous back for the Seido/Mugen 3500+ mAh extended batteries, I can't help thinking about all that wasted space above the SIM and up to the camera that could be "filled in" by an irregularly shaped battery.
The battery is made out of a long ribbon-like sandwich of electrolyte between two thin metallic foils (electrodes) and the whole structure is rolled or packed. It would be way too expensive to make it in custom shapes. So , the Li-Ion batteries can be built like cylinders or rectangular shapes.
Just got my sprint gnex today and I am wondering if anybody knows of the highest charge extended battery that doesn't involve replacing the back cover.
Also NFC support is a must.

I know you asked for extended battery but I don't know any I got this one from amazon and is just an spare battery with NFC and it comes with a really nice dock to put the phone too

Where?
If the Sprint battery is compatible with the Verizon battery then Verizon sells the 2100mAh for $25 at a store.

I don't have one either, but I think what's not compatible (without slight modification) is the Verizon back cover. I think the Verizon OEM battery would work fine on the Sprint device, otherwise.
Would be nice if Sprint launched with their own back cover and extended battery options.

The battery is a little larger than the 1850mah version that comes with the Sprint Galaxy Nexus. However, the back cover doesn't fit perfectly. You'll have to use a nail clipper or something similar to cut off the 2 small plastic nubs to fit the Sprint phone. There is a little bit of a flex on the cover where the nubs were cut, so unless you have a phone case, like a Cruzerlite case, I would not recommend using this battery/back for the Sprint version of the Galaxy Nexus. It's not major though, so it's possible to live with it if you're not really picky about the fit not being perfect.
The original back cover for the 1850mah battery will not fit with the 2100mah battery.

Wonder if samsung might make one for sprint?
Debating returning it I only get about 12 hours with my 3800 mah extended battery but its about 2.5-3 hours screen time so maybe its actually good idk

Over all wifi. I may take a day off of wifi and do my 3g stats. But there is somethimg wrong with your phone. Or your battery is junk. Did you buy a generic off of eBay? If so its a dud this is on the stock battery.

Look at the model number. Verizon is i515 or something and GSM is 9250 and if it says lte its Verizon. I got two 2050 mh batteries and a wall battery charger for around $25 on amazon. They fit like the stock battery.

Verizon is i515 and the battery is blue and more "square". GSM is i9250 and the battery is black and more "rectangle". You do need the extended battery cover. Most legit Samsung batteries + covers are ~$35 on eBay. Get a legitimate one.
Hi,
I have Verizon GNex running stock JB and i like it that way.
Currently i have the original 1850mah and 2100mah battery, i've just purchased a $5 external batt charger on ebay to charge the extra battery and it's working so far.
What do most ppl. recommend/use to get through the day on GNex.
What's better among the hyperion or mugen or sieodo or should i go for external battery like Anker??
Thanks
im using hyperion 3500 and its definitely doing its job to me. ive had it for a month now

Do u have any numbers like how long it last compared to stock or 2100mah battery.
Also where did you buy it from? Hyperion 3800mah with NFC has decent reviews on amazon but only cost $20.
Do Let me know.
Thanks.

I just bought the Hyperion and cannot believe how well it works. I have been trying to cycle the battery all the way down and it has been hard to kill it in a normal day! With NFC and 3800mAh it is a great deal. I finally found a battery that will let me get through a busy day without charging.

Mugen is pretty good except finding a case which has been a pain, don't think its worth $90 I paid so try a similar one but for less $ and that has lets u use a case
Yes mugen is expensive for $90.
About the case I will try to be careful with the phone but having a case on an extended battery will only make the phone more thicker...no??
Where did u guys buy your Hyperion from?? Amazon or some other website??
Pls. Let me know thanks

Do you happen to know if it is compatible with the GT-I9250 model? And one more thing that I know it could be too much to ask,but could you please upload some pics so that we can see how much thicker it is?
Thanks a lot.
Hi,
Would be interested to know if it will fit the GT-I9250 aswell, been looking for a 3800 with NFC, darned if I can find 1 in the UK, presume these are Verizon only?
Are there ANY with NFC other than the 2000Mah for the GT-I9250 ?
The battery for international version and US Verizon i515 are different. So look for the one compatible for your phone

+1 for Hyperion 3800 mAh from Amazon. I have been having a hard time trying to kill it (battery to 0% and auto-shutoff) during break-in cycles. This thing just last a long time. Now is Sunday night and my battery is running at 4% after the last time I charged (Friday night). The Battery detail says I've had almost 6 hours of screen time (auto brightness) on it already.
