Galaxy Note - Extended Anker Battery + Wall Charger & New OEM S-Pen

Up for grabs is some stuff I have left over from my last device.
The Anker battery was used less than a month and lasted 20% longer than the stock battery 2700mAh, comes with dedicated wall charger.
The S-Pen was an extra that has never been used and is a 10/10
Both accessories can be used with any model of the Note.
Looking to get around $30 shipped, but shoot me some offers.

Shouldn't this be in the note thread or marmetplace?

Reliable replacement battery and dual charger

Just found this on Ebay: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Original-OEM...ltDomain_3&hash=item3cca7e925e#ht_2718wt_1397
Unfortunately this does not charge your phone. And I have my doubts with this being the real deal. Which dual charger, so phone dock and battery dock in one charging both would you guys recommend? I could not find any similar topic with these sorts of products.
Oh and yes, this is a question.

Ive had the 2 anker 2200 mah batteries and charger for a few weeks and I really like it. The ankers last just as long as the OEM battery

Look for the Kidigi dock. It will charge your phone and a spare battery simultaneously

hmm I've always wanted to get one of these combo packs (battery and charger) - and this seems like a great deal... though being from Hong Kong I'm a little bit skeptical when it comes to original/genuine items.

The thing you need to check is that the NFC function works... An original samsung battery should allow the NFC to work, the OEM batteries don't... If you're looking for a cheap extra battery for just the power you can find them for around $3-$4 Aud on ebay. They work fine but don't have NFC antenna...
And just because it says NFC enabled DOESN'T mean t is...

Check out my thread.

For now, I would recommend the QCell 2100x2 with Charger since I didnt get to test the Anker and Hyperion yet. Plus the Charger charges the batteries to 100% unlike Hyperion chargers.

Ill post some shots of the Kidigi its awesome no prob from HK. took a bit but thats typical for free ship. Im waiting for an OEM batt w NFC from a domestic seller it was cheap as hell but all his buyers seem happy.

referring to the first post
The link you provided is the real thing, from what I know, there isn't any fakes of this item from hong kong, these item were on a special offer if you buy a new S3 from a authorised store, and many stores sell them of cheaply without the purchase of the S3.

i say keep waiting for the original samsung 3000mah battery to come out, thats what im doing.

Me too but it is really taking forever

Here's some shots of the Kidigi charging the spare batt. I'll post some of it charging the phone later.It also allows you to charge the unit with or without a case. The spare batt was not OEM. Didnt really hold a charge and NFC didnt work. Got my $ refunded and said I should keep it. You really cant get around buying it from Samsung. If theres a 3000mah that is the same size as stock that would be great, I wasnt aware of that.

Buy a HP touchpad charger. Pumps out 2ams and will charge almost anything. And costs around $5 and includes a quality micro usb cable

I don't know where to buy a charger!

Hi all,
I need to buy a charger for my SGS3. I need either a genuine Samsung one, or a safe and compatible micro-usb charger with an extended cable. I don't want to get one on ebay because I don't trust the listings, and Amazon's listings have negative reviews where users talking about their chargers have exploded and flown across the room.
I'm UK based so I don't want to order from other countries due to shipping times/costs.
Helpful inputs will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Any charger is compatible heck i even use the apple ipad plug and a OEM Htc cable and it works fine
the phone itself regulates all the charging not the charger itself..
but make sure you buy a Hi quality micro USB cable or else you could short your phone

Thanks for the reply, but where should I buy the product from?

Amazon is one of the best places and by sorting them by highest rated and with the most reviews makes it easy. Or if you want to keep it easy, buy the Galaxy S4 charger (2.1 A instead of 1.0 A!) off Samsung.com and if you register your device, they give you a 50% of promo code for mobile accessories which makes it about $20.

Highest rated + most reviews brought me to this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/GadgetinBox...8&sr=8-3&keywords=micro+usb+charger&tag=0u-21

For the price, it wouldn't hurt to buy one but another thing to look out for is number of reviews, which can say a lot of the quality and utility!

Another good option is to check hotels in your area. People leave behind their phone chargers ALL THE TIME: they're not worth driving back for, and often people won't even bother to have them mailed to them. As a result, pretty much every hotel desk has a box of chargers that they hold on to for people who forgot to bring theirs. If you ask nicely, they might let you pick through it and take one. These are often the brandname chargers that came with the phones.

I noticed that the ones with a lot of reviews seem to be the most untrustworthy, I saw a listing with one that had 60 5 star reviews, but it also had 50 1 star reviews that talked about how the charger has literally blown up and flown across the room or stopped working on its second charge. As for local hotels... There aren't any near where I live

Can't you just go to some big retail surface around your area and get one from there? Any charger with a microusb will work. The only thing i'd look out for is the 1A charging current (like the original) so the phone finishes charging in in about 2h. Just avoid the real obvious crap ones from shady brands and you should be fine. You can just trade it in if it doesn't work properly. I got a bundle from energizer for a bit less than 20€ (around £17). Had a wallsocket charger with 2 usb sockets (1A), a car charger one (with 1A and 2 usbs too), a rather long cord and several ends to plug just about every device i could think of. Obviously microusb included.

What about the same as the one provided in the original box? It should be safe I think.

Its nice to be nexus branded but still pricey in my opinion. I bought a 2 pack OEM brand new Blackberry playbook 1.8a wall chargers for 4.99 on ebay a while ago. It was an amazing deal and the chargers work great and charge my phone a bit faster.
Just found out they have the daily deal again on ebay for 4.99! Great deal and alternative to the nexus one's if anyone is interested

I bought 6 of these a while back and it's one of the best purchases I've made for my phone. That micro USB is pretty much universal already so it is kind of future proof. I usually get a few chargers at once because they break but I'm still on my same one since December.

Yes

I was going to buy this charger, but i ended up buying the Nexus Wireless Charger because, afaik, it comes with exactly the same micro-usb Nexus charger + cable....
Is like 15€ for the microUSB charger and 25€ more for the wireless charging square......
I know that 15€ for this charger is a lot of money if you compare it with other chargers......but compared to Apple's officials accessories (charger in this case) imo is cheap and it's also standard (micro usb).
However...I admit, it's more fanaticism (to Nexus brand) than anything else.

Thanks for the heads up, just bought a spare as well as a wireless charger - it's about time!

Interesting. If anyone has any feedback, I'm eager to listen to what you have to say.
