Highest capacity battery w/no bulking???

Anyone know of one that's good quality, and doesn't bulk up the phone??

I believe someone on here got the nexus battery to fit. Its 2000 or 2100 mah. I can't remember which.

So that would be the limit without having the extended bulky back cover?after that, you would need that extra cover??

I got the extended galaxy nexus battery (2100mah) to fit however the back cover won't stay. Adds about 1mm thickness. I'm using a siedio case and it fits perfectly without the back case.

My Nexus extended battery fits perfectly and all the tabs click and stay. The bulge is also very minimal. For 24.99 at the Verizon Store, its the best deal for an authentic Samsung battery compatible with this phone. Don't know how long this 50% off 49.99 reg price will last.
Other posters had no problems with this extended battery fitting in their phones.

How much of an efficiency increase may we expect to see between 1850mah (or whatever we have stock) and a 2100mah? I can obviously do the math myself but does the efficiency grow exponentially or anything as the mah goes up?

Agreed I just received my battery from nexus today and it fits fine

No, it's linear. mah is a measure of amount of electricity stored, so more electricity is linearly more use time.

Thanks, electrical terms were never a strong point of study for me.

Why would you get that when Verizon is selling it for only 25$
Sent from my SGH-T989

Yeah, it was $26 and some change out the door, post-tax. Why would you buy it on eBay, pay more, THEN wait for shipping? Get it at the Verizon store.

Galaxy Nexus 2100mah battery from Verizon.
End of story on this.
Yes, the back does close and it works perfectly. Just don't drop the phone.

Anyone know how I can get the nexus extended sent to Canada?

I picked up one today at verizon in Vegas it was $27.01 after tax. So far so good, my back cover and case went on easily. Definitely worth it and now I have a spare battery, my original. DEAL!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Im not an expert on this so sry if this is a noob question. But if using the nexus battery, will this in the long run. Damage our phones? Are the voltages going into our phone the same as stock battery? Please if someone with knowlegde on this advise. Thinking of grabbing one? Thx

check out this review of the OEM spare battery charger http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349656

The charger that allgamer posted works great! I just bought mine from Amazon a few weeks ago and I love it. It comes with a battery also, which is a huge bonus. Same battery that our phones came with. Now I have 3 batteries that are always charged and ready. Two thumbs up!

Cheap extended battery from eBay

So I got bored and picked up a cheap 3800mah battery of eBay for around $10. I wanted to get the laza one with nfc but it isn't available in Canada. Once been running the cheapie for a few days now. I no longer have to charge at work and after 9 hours of light use on the weekend I am down less than one quarter.
Biggest downside is the supplied back doors not quite fit right.

Just an update. Battery life is consistently good. I leave work without charging at around 50%. Previously if I didn't charge while at work I would be down to 10-15%. I can play a hell of a lot of minecraft these days days. The issues with the back turned out to be from some plastic flashing. I cleaned up the edge and it sits snugger than the original back. Not bad for under$10

Extended OEM battery for the T-mobile Galaxy Nexus works great on our phone in the original case too! NFC capable.

Oh I can defiantly agree with that statement with an astrix, the old back does fit but it takes some force to get it to stay completely sealed and after about 6mo I had to replace the back of the device because the clips that held it on no longer worked properly just an FYI.....

Just bought this battery. I've been using it about 3 days and followed battery calibration instructions. So far I'm really not that impressed by it. I've heard with extended batteries it takes a few days to settle in...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

So I hope yesterday was an indication as to how this battery will perform long term. We'll see.

Has anyone found a protective cover that will fit the new case for the bigger battery. I always like to protect the phone just in case it is dropped!

Hyperion vs anker

Which one should I go with? I'm choosing between the hyperion 2200mah and anker 2200mah both now come with nfc. The hyperion is cheaper by $2 but if anker.quality is better I'll go with anker. What's the consensus around here?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Anker hands down no question. I have bother and the Anker lasts around 40% longer
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Anker
it is advertised as 3.8V while hyperion as 3.7. Stock battery is 3.8V
I'm not sure if hyperion is actually 3.7 or not, but my anker battery displays 3.8 on the back.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

The hyper ion is 3.8 mah as well but I might just go with anker after all. Amy busy have good reviews for the hyperion over anker?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I have Hyperion and its pretty good, I haven't tried the anker. I like how the Hyperion backplate doesn't look weird

thanks but I'm only interested in the 2200mah one, so backplate looks won't be a problem. Anyways I guess I'm going with an Anker.

Anyone have spare 4200 mah battery?

I recently won a case under the impression that I would be receiving a battery with it but I was under the wrong impression. Haha, so if anyone has a spare 4200 MaH battery out there I could have that would be great. Thank you in advance.
