Powerglider
While zerolemon offers the largest capacity while being cheapest among the set
My choice is easily the powerglider because of case size: batteryCapacity ratio

It would be great if we can put up a quick comparison table of all the 4 stating pros and cons, especially when it comes to size (dimensions), weight and performance/IO with recommendations. this will enable users to take a quick decision.

Lol, I have used all versions of the morphie with the iPhone at work. Didn't realize I had to post my resume .
I got my limefuel case in ~2 days ago and have been using it pretty steadily. It adds not as much bulk as you would think and feels incredibly solid. No movement at all of the phone when it is in the case.
Turned the case on today around 30% battery. With light to medium use it charged it up to 90%.
Will post more info and pictures tomorrow.

The thing is, we want to know your experience with the cases listed. We don't care about your experience with past cases. Thus saying the case is on its way doesn't add any value when we are trying to decide which case to buy.
I noticed the limefuel only has a 3 star rating on amazon which concerns me slightly. Is it easy to add / remove your phone? I would use this case when I won't have access for to a charger for vacations or days I am out and about. I can't see using it for an everyday case.
Mugen posted an image of their new case. They have always been solid when it comes to batteries, but I want to see some reviews before I drop $90.

The case is very easy to remove. I bought this case for the same reason, I go to Disney several times a year and generally am spending the whole day away from a charger.
I am actually surprised by that raitijg and could have sworn when I ordered it was still at 4 stars. The case has a nice finish very similar to the nexus 5 itself. Unfortunately I did not bring the case to work today as I was annoyed with going to charge my phone last night and seeing it at 90% battery.

Hey guys,
Just got the mugen extended battery in the mail. Their regular shipping somehow took longer than 3 weeks and I still have not received the item, so I asked them to reship using FedEx. Guess what, it took 2 days to get to Richmond Hill, Canada, which is just north of Toronto.
Anyways, just though I'd upload some high quality pics with measurements so if any of you guys are planning on buying it, you guys have a sense of how things ll look when you get it.
Feel free to update this with your own pictures.
Update 1: More pictures of battery on phone. Post #10
________________________________________________________________________________
After using this for some times, I believe I can give a rather full rounded review of this case
Make and Looks:
After looking at the pics below, it is definitely safe to conclude that if you cannot stand additional bulk to the galaxy nexus, this extended is definitely not a recommended, as it does double the thickness of the phone. Also, this battery is not for those who are seriously concious of the way their phones look, as this is, to be honest, not the best looking extended battery pack out there.
HOWEVER, if you are like me, and enjoy funtion over form, it would be my pleasure to say that this battery is definitely recommended. The back casing of the Mugen Power battery mimicks the back of the galaxy nexus to provide users with enough grip so as to reduce the slipperiness and possibilities of drops. Also, the battery which is rated at 4000mah does add some weight to the phone, which to me is a great addition as it just feels that the phone is more secure in my hands with the added weight. The battery, when installed on the phone, depicts the resemblence of a humpback whale, which not to say is ugly in anyway, it is simply Unique. The kickstand is a bit flimsy, but that is just an additional use of the new backing to watching movies and videos, so can't complain there.Lastly, the camera holes are perfectly cut out for the 5MP camera, it does not affect picture quality in anyway, but does take away from the original good looks of the phone.
Usage
To be honest, the GNEX isn't among the top performing android handsets in the battery department. Getting through a full day with my full usage has always been a problem, no matter what brightness setting I set. Battery times for me has always been 13-16 hours with 3-4 hours standby, and that is already after using franco kernel and aokp.
Now, with the Mugen Power battery, I can say this: I have a GMAXXXXXXXXXX. The battery after 3 - 5 charge cycles is AMAZING! Unlike other cheap extended batteries, I would say that mugen lived up to their name, as this battery is more than what they described as double my battery life. With it, I get by two days with super super super heavy usage including a ton a gaming, videos, and auto-sync and wifi on 24/7. That is around 2 days 3 hours with 7-9 hours screen on with the screen at around 50% brightness!!
Would I recommend?
Yes, I would definitely recommend this extended battery to anyone out there. If the price of said Mugen Battery is within your acceptable budget limit, there is no other battery that compares to what Mugen is delivering. And as the old saying goes, "You get what you payed for".
Thanks for this, please post back your results

The seido doesnt even look good on it. try the SGP Neo Hybrid, cut the back flap off, so the battery sticks through , and that way, it looks sexy and it provides the functionality you need

What's with the lip around the back? is it because of your cut? BTW, whats the material on the back of the seido? it doesnt look plastic..is it matte or something?
Yes it's because of the cut. I could probably cut a little more to make it more streamlined.
The seidio with NFC has a soft touch battery cover. It matches the case and feels great in the hand.

Hi, there...
Friend of mine has an iPhone 4 battery case, like this one http://www.exogear.com/products-iphone-4.html
Now, I don't envy Apple phone users a bit, but am rather annoyed by the fact that so many companies produce the greatest number of accessories for 2, or 3 model that this company has, instead concentrating on all the other phones. The result being that I can hardly find a similar thing for my Note. Even when I was I was thinking about buying SII, I wasn't able to find anything as nice, except those cases/chargers in which you place your phone and then when it is full you can take it out and carry on with your life. But nothing which extends your battery life and becomes attached to your phone throughout the day.
The only thing I've found on the eBay is this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Slim-Li-I...ltDomain_3&hash=item2c661185fa#ht_5527wt_1163
Has anybody got any experience with battery extenders/cases for Note?

If I recall correctly, another member has one of these and said even though they claim to have 3500mAh, it doesn't even last as long as the stock battery of 2500mAh.
I don't have one myself so I can't confirm this but that's what they said.

There's a thread on Gold 3250mAh, my ekhm... "tests" returned results very similar to the stock battery, but some users reported feeling it lasts longer than that
looking for something like this?
It's a Chinese battery pack for the note ,can give about 45% extra charge,has a kickstand.
the quality is alright ,the price is 42$ ,and as you can see from the photos I haven't used it much and it's gathering dirt.
I can't remember the name ,nor can I find the box ,sorry.
but anyway , yes those things exist.
Thanks, all...
Yeah, I wasn't after something I'd use with my Note like all the time...
But, if I were to go somewhere for a longer period than a day and there was a chance I might use navigation quite a bit, or even driving for 4-6 hours with navigation on all the time... Esp. since someone here said that the Note doesn't charge as fast as it gets depleted battery during constant navigation use in a car.
So, a behemoth like this one would come in handy in situations like this...
might I suggest these

Since these charging battery cases add more bulk to the phone, why not just cash out on a Mugen 5400Mah battery? It does add some bulk, but tests I read somewhere showed that it received 9 hours of continuous screen time which is just ridiculous!

I don't think the problem is whether or not people are willing to cash out on Mugen, the idea is to find an alternative.....I myself am not willing to have my note THAT bulky, yes the external battery cases are a little bit bulky but compared to the Mugen its definitely more aesthetically pleasing. I'm looking for an alternative to making my Note last a bit longer, and also not ruining the sleek design of this beautiful phablet .

Update
Update on my experience with this case. I already tore the leather for the flip front cover, so to me that part is poorly made. I simply cut it off since I didn't want to see that tear all the time. On Saturday upon receiving this case I fully charged both my phone and the case and started using them both around 4 PM. With normal use for me the case died today around 10 AM and I have been running off of the phone battery every since.
I can't say that I'm going to use this case every day as it makes the phone a little bulkier than I would like, but for me, this case will come in handy more often than not. Overall, I am happy with my purchase thus far with the exception of the tear. We will see how it does after several charging cycles.
I'm not too much of a fan of flip cases. They conform you to use the device as a book or in landscape orientation. If they made a version that would flip upward like a traditional paper note pad as opposed to off to the side. definitely buy it if one was made like that. I wish mophie would make their charging cases for the note 2.

Yeh that's what I thought.
I have a 11000mah battery block which I use but it's heavy and large.
The iPhone 5 and Galaxy cases are about the same prices.. although now that the Galaxy S3 has been out for a while I have seen sales where battery cases (not Mophie) went for as low as $25.
Very true this is on the pricey side but then again so was my Developer's Edition phone ($650). I've decided that this will be my new money pit for a while. I ordered the silver Mophie ($100) last night as well as the HTC D160 Car Dock ($60) which is finally on HTC's US website. Last week I ordered two desk docks ($24/ea) and a Poetic Atmosphere case ($10). Thankfully I'm done accessorizing this phone. It's no longer all about the Benjamins. Now it's all about the ROMs and kernels

I'm normally not a case person so I don't foresee that as an issue. I'll only use my Mophie case for nights out or sporting events when I'm really using heck out of the phone for pictures and such. I also pretty much only use my car dock when I know I need to use my GPS. I think I'll be okay.

Just making sure you knew that the car dock wouldn't accept anything besides the phone, perhaps a skin. Just seemed like an odd collection of accessories that won't mesh well.

Thanks. I appreciate it and stepping back I could see your concern for me. I'm well aware of my limitations with the HTC car dock (or most docks for that matter). I had to purchase the Mophie because I've always been curious about them but there's never been one for any of the HTC phones I've owned. This is a $100 curiosity experiment to be honest. lol
I was waiting for a battery case to show up, I had a similar one to the Mophie for iPhone so I was spoilt for battery life, and it being a smaller phone I didn't not mind the extra bulk... but I'm wondering if the added length and thickness will make the HTC One a bit unwieldy? Especially for one handed use. I think I'd have to see what these are like in person.
just came across this accessory through AT&T's premier website. I was surprised mophie designed one for something thats not an iPhone.
Unfortunately the black color is the only one available right now. Waiting for the silver to drop. I get them for $59.40 with my discount

I have the mophie case now it's awesome. I had the juice pack plus with my previous phone, the iPhone 4s. Had the the phone and case for 2 years. The case never failed me. That motivated me to buying it for my One. I usually charge the phone when I'm at 40-30% battery life. I play games on this phone a lot so this case was a must. Modern combat 4 is incredible on this phone. Are you sure you can't dock this phone with mophie on? There are 4 conecters for some sort of dock right on the bottom the the mophie case .
Even though the phone is much bulkier than bare, I find my overall experience with handleing the phone much more comfortable.

http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/251631021161?nav=SEARCH
Want to know if its worth it? Also, i have heard good things about the i-Blasin battery case and ZeroLemon ones.
Any feedback on a really good battety case would be appreciated
I have the Zerolemon, it arrived today. I can't comment on battery life yet but I'm very pleased with the case itself. It is particularly bulky but I prefer this to the bare phone, which i find far too slim. The extra size hasn't impeded on "thumb-reachability", I can still use it entirely one handed - in fact it sits far better in my hand as it actually has some weight to it and enough device to grip properly.
The built in screen protector does its job although I'll likely replace it with an adhesive glass one in the future, it's a bit naff. Buttons all work well, as does the camera flash - doesn't seem to impede image quality when it's used.
The belt clip I'll never use, and it's useless as a kickstand as the clip itself holds it at terrible angles. Could be repurposed as a car mount though without much trouble.

Can I ask where you purchased the zerolemon battery case from? The case with the battery is not available on Amazon or anywhere else online.

On Amazon. This is the exact product link I bought, but the spec and picture have now changed (my case is black, plus I have the battery) It was $39.99 before shipping.

If it helps at all, the LG G2 battery they do should fit fine, albeit you'd need to buy the case separately.
I use the Spigen slim armor and its great
Since when is the slim armour a battery case?

Did you end up trying the eBay one?
I've ordered the exact external battery case as shown.. Charging full for the 1st time now.. Looking good so far. No complains except the slow charging..
zerolemon urgent help needed!
I just bought a zerolemon extended battery for my nexus 5, but i dont know how to use it beside that ive charged it gor 12 hrs for initial use and it got over in just one day!
Maybe i didnt use it efficiently or any other issue,
If anyone has it please advice me how to use it effeciently!
Thanks!
Maybe users with external battery cases can share how they use their battery cases..
Is the zerolemon customber service good or they don't answer?
Is this any good? -> http://www.ebay.com/itm/3800mA-Exte...18?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item566ddadaa2
Price is good and installation seems easy.
Tommy this thing seems good but shouldn't a battery of 3800 mAh give your nexus a charge more than once? As nexus built in battery is 2300 mAh?
I am using zerolemon extended battery of 3500 mAh but it doesn't give me one complete charge though, but still its handy while you are travelling..
But the zerolemon is very bulky with 100% protection, this thing isn't bulky but as they claim its optimal protection, so my opinion is you given it a try, its worth it BUT @ your own risk
So can anyone give any reviews on the zero lemon case? Worth the money or what?

I don't recommend it for continuous use, until and unless you are someone who constantly is in journeys. The battery gives one n a half extra charges to your nexus 5..
I would rather call it an external charger, or a power bank, rather than external battery for nexus 5..
Hopefully I answered your query, there shall be any other query? Feel free to ask..
Thank you!

Why would you not recommend it for daily use? I'm trying to see the pros and cons. This is pretty much the most solid one of all the options we have for the Nexus 5.

I don't recommend it because I've used it, the charging input from the zero lemon to your nexus is weak, it will take 3 hrs to complete, and constant usage at the time of charging heats up not only your device but also the zero lemon battery...
I don't say its bad, but I wasn't satisfied with it, and yes comparatively zero lemon is the best... But ultimately there's no solution to this nexus battery problem..
U can still go for it.. But don't use zerolemon too much, except at the time of necessities..
Anything else?
I carry a vinsic 20000 MA battery and 2metre lead in my backpack. Just pull out as much lead as needed to reach my pocket. Soon charges with 2.1amps and fast charge. Better than a case imo. I use bluetooth adapter for music and calls so the phone stays in the pocket and I can use my Sennheiser cans with no lead.
