There is a company called anker that makes 7400mah batteries. That said, I've never tried their battery, but I have two zero lemon 7000mah batteries, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Do be aware, however, that my phone is now heavier than my 8 inch tablet. You get used to it quickly though, the weight in your hand and pocket is reassuring
It's all ymmv really, for me the iAnker 7200mAh battery runs like a champ, it's been roughly a year and my battery has only lost a few 100mAh but it's still lasting 2-3 days without having to charge ( 100 down to 40 ). ZeroLemon is also a great brand. Although 100-200 mAh may not be a difference, it's all up to you to decide because everyone's experiences are all different with batteries.
Thx for the replies im going to try the lemon out. ^^

Do they make an official 2000mah samsung extended battery with nfc and 1mm thicker battery door for the t989 Like the one they make for the international version?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
i saw them on Samsung website
not found for sale any where yet
but if you think about it our stock is 1850 mAh and the official extended from Samsung is 2000 mAh that's not really worth the upgrade it's less than 150 mAh increase
might not even translate into another hour of use, maybe 30 min more of usage?
i just saw an extended battery with back cover for gs2 at tmobile store... didnt ask them how much it cost..

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.

I've been having major battery issues still even with new Rom and kernel so i decided to buy this nexus battery from the Verizon store. is this the correct one?!? i keep reading everyone talk about the extended one but i did not purchase that one. the salesman told me 39.99 but when they rang me up they said i get a discount and it ended up only being 20.00.
should i get the extended or will this be good enough?

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.

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!

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.

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.
