What are the suggestions for extended capacity for the GS3? And, that's what I figured after finding out about Chinese batteries.

If you are looking for an Extended capacity Battery. I would suggest a ZERO Lemon 7000mAh Battery. It may seem a bit large, but it is well worth the added bulk. I also saw that Anker is now making a 7200mAh Battery. I would also recommend staying away from the cheaper ( read cheaper quality ) Batteries .

Just to add, zerolemon also has slim battery's as big as stock but a little more capacity. No NFC, but two for 25$

Just opted for the Big Daddy and gonna give it a whirl. Saw some YouTube vids with 2 days longevity. Better than my two giving out in less than 1 day. Don't want to be changing batteries that often, especially when I cannot get even one full day on them. Thanks for the pointers!

Battery 3500mAh

I am very sorry if there is already topic like this one.
I found on ebay a battery that was 3500mAh or 3600mAh I don't recall exactly, but they say that it is the exact size like the original and won't change the size of the phone like the 5000mAh does.
My question is did someone has it,and how is it working? How many hours did your phone last?
Thank You in advance!

Absolute nonsense. Every battery that claims vast improvements in the same form factor is a scam.
If 3500mah could fit in the space provided, Samsung would have included a 3500mah battery.

I Don't agree,there could be a lot of reasons why they didn't put one,from budget point of view to supply issues. It's not like they strive to bring you the best at any cost.

If you meant the Gold battery, then it is 3500mAh. I bought two and noticed a huge difference compared to my stock battery. The stock used to power the phone until 7pm with moderate usage, wifi and bluetooth always on. Ever since I used the Gold battery, the battery still is at approximately 40% at 11pm. The battery still is 2 days old but still, the difference is noticeable
can you guys do a nova battery tester run on those batteries?

Mine came with 2800 mAh. Since it's cheaper than stock it has worth the purchase. Don't get your hopes high with these batteries.
Your srock may be dieing if it's almost a year old. Mine got down to 1700 mAh and this explains the "huge" difference you see in your new battery.

I bought the Gold battery two months after I got my Note so it means the OEM is still at it's peak. But yeah, I really don't have high hopes for replacement batteries. They may have a higher charge but they won't last as long as OEM. Like my dslr batteries, I get more juice out of the replacement batteries but my OEM battery outlasted them. But it is still worth it for me. What good is a camera (or phone in this case) if it does not have power when you really need it? Battery life does not matter to me (atleast in my case since I could buy 4 to 5 replacement batteries for 1 OEM dlsr battery - the Gold battery however, is another case).I keep that mantra all the time and I am happy with it :laugh:

I see a lot of battery threads but can't make up my mind, what's the best battery?

Price range under $30 and one that fits or slightly fits the original back cover

anker are known to be good batteries, but you should get the galaxy nexus battery that you can pick up from the verizon store. The OEM batteries have NFC capabilities the others do not. OEM should last longer too even though the mah are different.

Yup, and $25
Been on the VZ nexus extended battery for a month - wow it is great. Much better than I expected. Took off the label paper, trimmed off the plastic end caps to the battery height (with a razor blade). Left on the NFC antenna, but can get it thinner by cutting that off. My stock cover barely bulges. It's been $35 at Amazon (Samsung 2100 mah extended with cover) or at Verizon (lucked out when it was $25)
I just ordered the anker 2050 from ebay for 9.99 shipped.
I dont use nfc and our phones lack the secure element needed for g00gle wallet. I also wanted the back cover to fit correctly without having to modify the battery, and 50mha isnt a big difference.
Hands down nexus...

The better the system the more battery it Burns, I app pose that if the processors and memory were less consumptuous then maybe we would be better off. Honestly even if you are turning off certain process patterns or psych out the brain it won't help, the won't be such a thing as a perfect phone unless you built it yourself, but unless the boards and parts are sold to secure in sockets your out of luck.

Defective battery?

So I ordered a 1800mah battery for the epic. It fit and everything but literally while charging it and on browser on just data, the battery life decreases while on the charger. It also almost died at school today. On my 1500mah, I ended a 7 hour day with about 30-40%. On the 1800mah, I got down to 20 and below. If kind of makes me mad that I bought a bigger battery and out sucks. And what is a good 1800mah battery for the epic?

The battery from the Epic 4G Touch is your best bet. And as for it dying on the charger, it's the charger, not the phone or battery. I know this because it's happened to me. Try a different charger

Yes I ordered the Samsung epic 4g touch battery. And sadly it isn't my charger because I am using the same charger on my 1500mah battery and its charging fine.

Not always the charger.... When I'm on 4G and trying to use Google Maps even plugged in I drain my battery. If I shut GMaps down, it starts charging as per normal.
It was really frustrating when I first got the phone, as I was in the process of moving to Denver and knew where nothing was. Now, at least, I know the area well enough to just have it on at the start or end of trip.
The Anker samsung battery (search amazon for it .. ~$10 and 1800mah) has shown good results for me.

it is normal for the phone to consume more power than the charging pack can output....... you might not of had this problem because the 1500ma battery uses less energy than a 1800mah battery(hence the extra life..) if you charge with a USB 1A charger it should charge the new battery better. also, turn of 3g and watch your battery charge about 2times faster than with it on.

This is the one I ordered -- getting about 20 hrs of battery life vs. 12 hrs on my stock (2 year old) battery. Non-OEM batteries are typically a hit or miss, but amazon's return policy is dead simple and free, so IMO worth a shot.

So heres my verdict regarding the slim zerolemon battery
It is good as the oem battery aswell!
I got 4.3 hours of screen with 15 % left with the battery using from 9 am to 7 pm!
I was on 4G LTE like almost all the time coz we have no wifi here where im taking my vacation. I constantly like every 10 mins checking FB, amazon, ebay, flipboard, AC forum, xda forum, bleacher reports app, espn app, some gps, internet, call and messaging and just couple of minutes of gaming. And my default brightness is also 40%!!
So ill give it a solid 10/10 score!
Then for the Onite slim battery
I think its around 8-10% less capacity than the oem and zerolemon battery, but its aight for $10
I'll give it a 7.5 rating
* Dont get the hyperion one, it sucks. Or maybe I just got a defective one but i dnt think so.
Its adviseable to stick with Zerolemon

I got what I'm pretty sure is a brand-new device (there's no refurb markings or stickers or anything like that that) in some kind of cardboard frame, a backplate, a battery, USB cable and wall wart. It also came with the Warranty guide and Quick Start booklet. It was shipped in a plain brown box with the AT&T logo on it.

Close. I dropped my OGP at work and ruined the glass, so I filed an insurance claim and they sent me a brown-box replacement with everything that comes in a retail box, including a new battery.

So heres my verdict regarding the slim zerolemon battery
It is good as the oem battery aswell!
I got 4.3 hours of screen with 15 % left with the battery using from 9 am to 7 pm!
I was on 4G LTE like almost all the time coz we have no wifi here where im taking my vacation. I constantly like every 10 mins checking FB, amazon, ebay, flipboard, AC forum, xda forum, bleacher reports app, espn app, some gps, internet, call and messaging and just couple of minutes of gaming. And my default brightness is also 40%!!
So ill give it a solid 10/10 score!
Then for the Onite slim battery
I think its around 8-10% less capacity than the oem and zerolemon battery, but its aight for $10
I'll give it a 7.5 rating
* Dont get the hyperion one, it sucks. Or maybe I just got a defective one but i dnt think so.
Its adviseable to stick with Zerolemon

Best bettery (that fits inside S3)

Hi there I was looking to get a longer lasting battery than my stock one with my S3 and I am a bit of a noob - I really dont like the fat ones so would be great to get one to fit inside. Now when I was browsing I noticed this 3800 one : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3800mAh-High-Capacity-Battery-for-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-i9300-/300944750217?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4611b47689 seems great specs but I cannot find anyone thats reviewed it - seen a few posts on the 'gold' ones (and this may be one of them I think - just looks different) on ebay at 3250 and some people say there good but I am unsure which is best and if there are probelms involved? Or if they are actually better / worth getting? I.e. I see mentions of leakey batteries memory problems and NFC loss - I guess I dont mind the NFC loss is that about it? Thanks!

Anyone? Tnx
Zerolemon 2300mah. You can find it on amazon. Next time search through this forum, there are tons of threads on batteries.

I bought a sporting brand one that was supposed to be like 3400 and it didn't do any better than stock. They refunded my money and I used that to buy the zero lemon one rated at 2300. Will start testing that tomorrow.

Anker 2200 through amazon, fits inside stock case. Used several weeks and outlasts my stock battery (one year old).

Yes I have searched through many places already. I guess I was hoping maybe someone had tried this particular battery. I guess I might have to assume its like a 'gold' one. A zerolemon at 2300 and anker at 2200 isnt the stock 2100? Sounds a bit pointless to get an extra 200 no? I.e. how long extra are you getting out of these?
Got a feeling this 3800 will be more like 2500 at best anyway I suppose - would be nice to know...I suppose these cheap batteries dont leak or over heat or wipe card memories - not sure why some people talk about this - not seen any reports of this.
The zero lemon one rated at 2300 is lasting me over 24 hours.

Yeah, right now I'm at 30% remaining and I have had it unplugged for 29 hours. So at this rate I should get 36 to 48 hours.

I have two zerolemons. They last for 1 day, but I play games like Riptide GP2, GTA all the day on work.

2 weeks ago I picked up a couple ZeroLemon 2300 batteries and I'd guess I get an additional 30-40% life over my 13 month old stock battery. I had been using a QCell 2100mah battery for the last 12 months as well and it worked well enough, including NFC. The QCell was no better than the stock battery at the time of purchase, hard to say if the ZeroLemon is at this point as I can't remember my old battery stats. I do miss NFC functionality with the ZeroLemon batteries but I may be the only idiot who ever actually used NFC tags anyway.

Ah thanks yer thats a good real life comparison. And thanks to the others too. I guess I was hoping I could get a proper 3000+ one inside but I see its not possible -pitty. Ill wait for this battery to get worse then go for what I need then...
Using Anker Battery for almost 10 months and have no Problems. My Galaxy Stay Longer and Charging getting faster... cheap as it should be at amazon.
