@Saltwater Hero OWNED!!!
EDIT: @gscoop: thank you for these. i was wondering what the belt clip looked like. question though, when you have it in the clip and on your belt/pocket etc. does it feel like you could jump around without losing it?
Ditto
Same gift at the door for me today, this is one tank of a case, and yes I think jumping around is quite doable without concern, the tab allows screen in or out on the case. I'd be more concerned about the clip than I would the tab letting go. But with otterbox reputation, that shouldn't be to much of a worry.
Seen posts about prices, I did the 5.00 since I signed up for notification, then googled otterbox coupons (tb1010y) and found another 10% plus free shipping. $40 to my door.... one happy outdoorsman.

Do you think there is a way to sqeeze a 2600 extended battery in it like you can with the seidio rugged and not add any more bulk?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
is there "plug" covers for the charging port an hdmi port?
Otterbox screwed up my order and somehow lost it. Called today and they couldn't figure it out so they are sending me one for free. Can't beat that, but now I have to wait all over....originally ordered on the 10th.
That box that the otterbox was shipped in looks large and I live in a condo with not so large mailboxes... that mail person better figure a way to get it to me or there will be hell to pay!
gscoop, when did you order your case?
I can't wait until I get my case, I got a replacement evo yesterday and its not getting activated until I receive it.
This is really starting to piss me off. I ordered mine on the 11th with fedex shipping. not only have i not received any tracking or shipment notification of any kind, but i can't even get their customer service to answer me back.....
and then i noticed this:

yeah it's called leaving it in front of your door or a slip in your box telling you to come pick it up
I ordered mine yesterday on the 15th and havent received confirmation that its shipped. Seems rather slow for a company like this. At least I havent been charged for it yet.

Mine still says the same thing yours does and I've spoke to otterbox and they said it has been shipped so more than likely yours has been shipped.
And does anyone have any decent pics of this thing yet the only ones I've seen are really small.

i had the same issue, checked my e-mail today an got my tracking #/credit invoice, case should be here tomorrow
Just got an update on USPS! Its about 3hrs north off me right now so im sure I'll have it by tomorrow.
Detailed Results:
Processed through Sort Facility, November 16, 2010, 9:38 pm, TAMPA, FL 33605 Electronic Shipping Info Received, November 14, 2010
Hmmm, ordered on 13th but still no email...
I ordered my Defender on the 13th and I have the same thing where it says "shipped" and "not shipped" at the same time. However, I haven't received an email with a tracking number yet which concerns me.
P.S., Why the hell does it take SO LONG for retailers (Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc...) to get these things in stock so I can just buy one locally?
** UPDATE - Ok, do have tracking number email - just got it yesterday and somehow missed it. Tried tracking it on USPS and it says:
"The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on November 16, 2010 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later. "
Lol, not sure what THAT means. Anyway, apparently some effort has been made to actually ship my product I bought 4 days ago. Whether it is in transit at this point is anyone's guess - at least it's faster than ordering from Hong Kong
I've seen a few posts about spare / replacement batteries for the Galaxy Note. This one is about the Mugen Power 5400mAh Extended Battery (HLI-N7000XL) specifically designed for the Note (N7000 / International model). This is an internal battery, not a plug-in external unit.
To be clear, I'm not a professional reviewer and have no vested interests in Mugen. This is not a scientific review but based on my actual experience. For a more controlled scientific analysis of battery discharge time bv the minute, or whatever, you'll need to look elsewhere. However I believe it's real life experiences which really matter.
I tend to pick up first impressions of a product based on the visual quality of the packaging, case finish, instructions, etc. The Mugen product did not disappoint at this stage. It was simply packaged but effective in protecting the contents and easy to get into. The instructions where easy to read and make it clear that it's necessary to fully charge and discharge the battery for 3 or 4 times before it carries a full charge. This took well over week to achieve due to the long life of the battery between charges!
The Mugen battery is, as you might expect, physically larger and heavier than the stock Samsung Galaxy Note battery. But the increased size offers in excess of a doubling in capacity so with normal use needs much less frequent recharging. Indeed the main points of my comparison are size/weight, longevity, and price/value.
Physical Size and Weight
The thickness of Mugen 5400mAh battery at around 13mm is a fraction over twice that of the standard 2500mAh Samsung Note battery. This means the stock rear cover has to be replaced by a deeper one to accommodate the larger battery. The Mugen battery comes complete with the larger cover, which also incorporates a neat flip-out side stand. This turned out to be a handy addition and one I increasingly found myself using. The replacement case felt to be of at least as good quality as the original and fitted perfectly. The overall thickness of the Note roughly doubled so the overall effect isn't as sexy as the thin original, but in practise I found the Note was easier to hold, particularly when out and about. The Mugen case was also slightly pimpled, similar to the original, which gave a feeling of confidence that it wasn't going to slip out of my hand.
On to the battery itself. The weight of the stock Samsung Note and battery is around 180 grams. The Mugen 5400 and Note weighed in at around 240 grams. This represents an overall 25% increase in weight. In practise the heavier battery slightly changed the weight balance of the Note but after picking up and using the Note a few times I hardly noticed it. It did feel heavier when in my pocket but not uncomfortably so. I also found I could no longer slide the Note into some of my smaller pockets. To quote a great Yorkshire friend of mine: "You get owt for nowt", which in this case basically means if you want a larger capacity battery it'll take up more space and weigh a bit more! (This is almost true because Mugen do also market a slightly larger capacity standard sized battery at the original size.)
Longevity
First, just in case you don't know what mAh means: It stands for milli-Amp hour and basically it's a measure of battery electrical capacity or storage 'size'. Everything else being equal, the bigger the number the longer the electrical power should last. The issue is that for many non manufacturer supplied batteries everything else is not equal. The inequalities range from mislabelling/over ambitious claims (I call it lying), to poor battery design such that it overheats or leaks or just fails sooner than it should (some might call them cr*p batteries). Of course such inferior batteries are usually cheaper to buy!
I tested the stock Samsung Galaxy Note 2500mAh battery with WiFi and GPS permanently enabled and sync set to 30 minutes. I used the Note frequently throughout the day for 2G (voice and text), WiFi and 3G surfing, Facebook, Twitter, newsfeeds, email, diary and the occasional game. The battery was charged overnight using the USB from my Desktop, and so started the day at 100%. By 15:00 it was down to 30%. By 19:00 it was down to 10%.
I then did the same using the Mugen 5400mAh battery. By 15:00 on Day 1 the charge remaining was down to 70%. It reached 40% at 12:00 on Day 2 and 13% by 19:00 on day 2. Wow! This was over a doubling in elapsed time over the standard battery.
Real life experience:
The above test reflects much heavier use than I'd normally make of the Note during a typical weekday, where I'd see the stock battery at around 20% at 23:00 each day. At weekends I usually have to top-up the charge during late afternoon or risk running out.
Using the Note as I would more normally, but with the Mugen 5400mAh battery, I found that I used GPS more (I do a lot of walking and track my route) without worrying about running out of power. I was not having to think about saving power for later use as I knew there was plenty available. I also didn't have to top-up charge during the day at all. The Mugen battery comfortably lasted two days and sometimes three before reaching the 10% to 20% mark.
Price and Value
The RRP for the stock Samsung 2500mAh battery is around £20. This equates to 0.8 pence per mAh.
The RRP for the Mugen 5400mAh battery is £63 ($99) at time of writing. This equates to 1.16 pence per mAh. This price includes the replacement back cover.
So £ per mAh of capacity the Mugen is not a cheaper option, but it's all about usability. For instance you could always buy a second stock battery and manage the charging of two batteries at once, which means you'd also need to invest in a desktop charger at around £15, and be powering off the Note mid afternoon each day to swap out the flat battery. I'd soon get fed up with doing that!
For me and the way I use the Note this is a JDI. Just Do It (buy the 5400mAh Mugen). The few cons are far outweighed by the pros, and on the occasions when I want to show off the Note or make it a little more inconspicuous I can simply pop back in the stock battery and cover. But when I do I'd soon go back to using the 5400!
Details of the Mugen 5400mAh battery can be found on their site at mugen-power-batteries .com
I'll continue to use the battery and come back at some point with my experience of how well it stands up after prolonged use.
I'd love to see some real world pictures of it on your phone if possible. I'd be interested in this for when traveling.
I caved.
Used discount code MUGENRULEZ for 7% off.
On backorder, but I don't need it right away anyways. Will carry it as my backup.
Good review mate Mugen Power is Awesome
post some battery usage pictures
Nicely done. Mine works pretty well, but I miss having a case to occlude the vol/power buttons, otherwise I'll accidentally press things whilst gaming. Apparently there's a couple of generic extended battery cases on ebay, so I'll give them a punt.
I have also bought the same battery, and another thing to take into equation is the excellent customer service of mugen. Fast and efficient

I've found these photos of the Mugan back cover for the 5400mAhr mounted on a Note.
Awesome. Thanks for the review. I went on their website to buy one and figured they have a competition running to win the same battery:

There have been quite a few discussions about how the "official Samsung" eBay batteries are just fakes that are made to look convincingly like Samsung OEM batteries, but aren't.
I always enjoy melting a £400 appliance with a £4 aftermarket battery. I could compare it to using a cheap 350W PSU in a top of the range gaming PC, you're going to see some smoke at some point.
Awesome review! Video Review Upcoming!
Hey everyone. Mugen is sending me over one of these babies to review for you guys on YouTube. Stay Tuned!
I do REAL WORLD reviews on YouTube where I cover every day practical use of devices, cases, and accessories. Yup, I actually tell you what it is like to use a device or accessory instead of just telling you the specs like many reviewers (cough) lol.

Hi angelofmusic, first of all let me ask you what your address is so that I can give it to my employer, and he can send you the bill, as I have just killed 32min of my working time by watching your review......hehe
Now on a more serious note, I have no prejudice against women, but I was surprised when I click on the link that you have provided and find out you look like a 15 year old girl, which will look great in her 40s
I just hope that you would be living in the UK or even better in Belgium, so that the USA related part would not be as irrelevant to me.
All in all, great review. I find it strange that you did not come up when I was searching for reviews of this device. I thought I was them all, but apparently the day that my G.NOTE arrived from Amazon I saw your video. Well better late than never, and I can't hide that I was very pleased when you said that Amazon was a good choice for buying this device.
Well I better go back to work

LOL I am 23. =) I'm more than legal hahahaha. I just have very young genes I guess...It probably throws a lot of people off. But as soon as I speak it is uncanny and you can tell that I must be older than 15! I love it. It's entertaining for me.

Hi angelofmusic, you did not get my joke . In the beginning of the review you talk about your age, and you say that you might look young now but that means that you're going to look great when you'll be in your 40's. I knew that you were 23, as you have said it on youtube. The fact that I said that you look young, was a compliment (maybe not yet, but in 4 to 5 years you'll be jumping of joy inside when someone tells you that you look like a teenager)
As for the review, I liked your stile. I just got my Note today, and I am still trying to figure out what to do with it. The battery is at 46% after the initial setup of my gmail accounts and installation of some important applications like whatsapp
The important questions I have atm is, should I charge or should I wait. Here in Belgium its almost 2:40 so I might just charge it and go to bed. But too difficult to sleep when I just got to unpack my new toy and the neighbour is having a very loud party. Might just be faith telling me to stay up all night and play with my new device.
I will maybe look at the insurance that you got for your device. I have never insured a device before, but with an almost 2 year old running around the house I fear that not even my Otterbox commuter and careful placement of the phone will be enough.
Well all and all this kinda bums me out but i'm kinda happy in the end because when I fist seen it I was thinking it was the watch its self but after looking at others watches with other bands on them. it appears my watch band is cracked (chipped). Not sure if I want to try and swap it at Best Buy, Add the 2 year warranty (Witch I usually feel is a rip off) , try and take the plastic pieces out, Leave it alone (but I still might add the warranty?)???? What do you guys think? Did anyone else get their extended 2 year warranty for 50$? I just have a hard time coughing that up when 299$ was allot for me to come off of in the fist place. In all reality I don't want to return it I love the watch and I'am really happy to watch Android wear grow through its early stages just as i did Android. but this is all a bit frustrating for a Device in some ways i'm so happy with.
P.S. On another note can't wait to see the New watch Faces I have herd about that we might see this week and Lollipop 5.0 but I know we have been hearing that for some time now but ill keep my fingers crossed.
Sorry not the best pics its late and not very easy to get a good pic at that angle.
I think you should try to have it swapped for a new one. The crack might have an impact on water resistance, especially when it's as significant as the one you have.
This is super disappointing. I was hoping the plastic spacers would be the solution to the problem....
i bought the watch thinking Hey its Motorola, the best design etc. only to find this VERY VERY flimsy cheap plastic back cover which flex and bends on any presure.. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!?! I waited untill they released the metal band version , paid BOOCOO for it only to find this weak spot on the back. Now I am paranoid about having anything including the band touch the plastic backing. Im expecting any day to have cracks in the back with normal usage. Motorola better replace this thing imediatly when I find ANY cracks, this better be a no brainer exchange at least up to a year after purch. I will not except any excuse for NOT replacing this thing with type of fatal flaw in the design. they knew about the backing. Im sure its fixed in moto2 coming soon.... this seems like the samsung 1 gen watch all over again....
Moto should fix the back ASAP and offer replacement backings or watches to anyone who has paid primi pricing for this first gen watch.
I was contemplating on buying the official metal band, as I thought that the spacers would prevent back cracks. Seems like I just have to wait for my Steelconnect adaptors to arrive.
If you do submit it for RMA, make sure you do the option where you pay for your new watch up front then receive the refund once your watch reaches Motorola.
If you leave it up to Motorola to exchange your watch after they receive it you're going to have a bad time. I don't wish that 26 day experience upon anyone.
From what I can see after taking the band off its only the plastic pieces for the band that are cracked the back of the watch is fine.

Same. I already bought an aftermarket brand metal band and was about to spend the full $80 on the motorola band just to get that plastic spacer. Glad I saw this post first!

This is good advice. I called over the weekend and chose the pay up front option. The replacement watch was at my house by Wednesday, and I am a happy camper. Save for my new fear of the plastic spacers not preventing more cracking....
Hello,
I've seen some reviews but those were when the watch costed 250$ and that was a long time ago. I'm not 100% sold on the smartwatch idea. Could you guys convince me to buy this watch, give me the pros and the cons... The price I have for this watch, refurbished, is around 85$ + 29$ shipping.
Thanks,

You should pay a bit more and get the 2nd generation. This one is not going to get the update out later this year.
Although I'm happy with mine, battery lasts all day and I like notifications, controlling music and like secure Bluetooth feature to unlock phone.
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
I wouldn't buy it. No more updates is already confirmed. The other watches on the market aren't as good. The 2nd gen and sport from motorola are not as good looking but are better. However, Motorola is basically lenovo now and the guy who made some of their best designs (moto x, 1st moto 360) just quit so their quality will go down. If I were you I'd wait for the upcoming watches. The urbane LTE is awesome and far and away the best watch on the market but is godawful ugly. I'd wait for someone to build a watch with a sim card like that so it can replace your phone when needed but look better than that.
I'm really happy with mine, picked it up for £100 (stainless steel version), the battery life isn't brilliant but I pop it on the charger every night anyway. Mainly used for notifications, HRT monitor, and Endomondo.

I paid just under £80 for mine with the leather strap (didn't fancy the metal strap catching hairs on my wrist or the look). I've got a pebble and thought it'd be handy having them both, with this one for good wear and the pebble for not so good wear. The battery lasts about 16 hours before it drops to 20%, which was a bit of shock after several days with the pebble, to the extent where I thought of returning it but I'm ok with it now. Given what I paid for it, I'm not bothered about the 2nd gen and what it might have, as the gen 1 still looks great and does everything I need it to - such as give me the time, date, weather, notifications, heart rate, play music, along with things I've yet to find out about... I should imagine. Not overly impressed by the colour screen, as its not any clearer than the pebble, but will serve its purpose where the pebble may not look quite right. So, in conclusion, I'd say get it.
6400 mAh on Amazon, have not heard of the name before. I am still thinking about ZeroLemon, just putting this out here for those that like a smaller battery (less than 10,000 mAh)
https://www.amazon.com/Perfine-Exte...36917&sr=8-1&keywords=lg+v20+extended+battery
I may bite the bullet and buy it just to do a sort of review for everyone here. Double battery life sounds good. It already makes it through a school day (8am-3pm) and is left on 15% with a lunch top up so this will probably help out in that aspect.

Ah ok, did not think to look in there, thought it was solely focused on ZL. I know no reviews I can find either, but as you can see my search skills are not top notch at times lol. But not sure if 6,400 will scratch my itch, I eat the LG battery up in not time, mainly because I keep the screen at 100% 24/7. Plus, with my Note 4 it worked great and not in mind of trying a new brand.

Phenomenal product. Yes, big and heavy. Stick it in my jacket pocket and even sometimes let my friends use it at the same time as I'm using it because it has 2 usb and 3 micro usb ports.
I'm interested, but what kind of grip does that have? I don't want a slippery back with no option for a case. I'm also not to keen on silver. Wish it was a soft touch, grippy black back.

My take away was if you choose standard shipping it would be here by 1 Feb, meaning there are expedited shipping options. Don't think they can Amazon Prime it because coming direct for China.

I may bite the bullet and buy it just to do a sort of review for everyone here. Double battery life sounds good. It already makes it through a school day (8am-3pm) and is left on 15% with a lunch top up so this will probably help out in that aspect.

That's some pretty below average battery life you got there. I get through my school day from 6am to 4pm (including bus rides) with 50-65% left. This is with constant snapchat and music usage and occasional videos and games.

im getting about 5-6 hours sot on average. That is with data, wifi, and sync on. I also turn on location only when i need it. My highest was 7 hours with only wifi on.
I'm curious about it but if it's not going to ship until February I had might as well wait for the Zerolemon.

I just ordered the hyperion today i will let you know how it works out. I should get it jan. 20th
I was going to get the zero lemon, but honestly i like the look of this one as its not as bulky and brick like as the zero lemon. I know zero lemon is the know battery of choice, but i will take a chance as i have heard and read good thing about hyperion as well.
