This does QuickCharge 2.0 in AND out: http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Certified-Aukey-10400mAh-Supported/dp/B00UBDI7EC
It's pretty compact too. I use a lot of Aukey products; at first I thought they were a knockoff Anker but they're just as good.
There's also this one with the same capacity, but it's longer and has two ports and an LED flashlight. So it's basically same capacity, but do you want portability or flexibility.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B011U0AY22?psc=1
So it should charge your battery as fast as the ASUS charger.

Nothing is ever completely "non-removable", mate.
Easiest solution would be a usb power case, although i haven't seen any for this phone so far.
Changing the battery on this phone is a fairly simple process, especially if you have fixed a phone before. The toughest part is the glue, but a little heat goes a long way. Just fixed the screen and changed the battery on a Mate 2, and I think that's a little more complex than the ZenFone 2. The biggest challenge would be finding a higher capacity battery that the firmware would recognize.....and that would fit.

The only company that I think would make an extended battery for this is ZeroLemon. They are the only ones I've seen to use creative shapes to take advantage of extra room in the Z dimension. The only thing that would stop them from taking it on is plain economics. They would have to see that this phone is not only popular enough, but also enough nerds like us to justify dumping resources into R&D for it.

ZenFone 2 uses a 3.8V 3000 mAh lithium polymer battery, model is C1191424
It can be removed.
Help
Hello, first and most important: "Sorry for my english", anyone knows where to buy the batery C1191424 in case of be necesary?.
Thanks!!!
hello all,
was wondering since, zenfone max has the same dimensions as ZF2 would it be possible to port the 5000 mah battery on to ZF2.
Thnx
i would love to have my battery capacity change too.. if there is anyone that can know about this its asus..
Guys, I had never see replacement battery for non-removable battery products..you can wish for battery-covers but I don't get the point, the phone in already very big and heavy (170 grams are already a lot), if you increase battery (and it's not possible in the original case, maybe only Mugen is able to do this, but I don't think they will produce a battery for a non-removable product) it will will become a brick and you can use it to build your new house Seriously, I think it's better to buy a powerbank (I use the Xiaomi 10400 and it's great). Asus won't release a new battery for this phone, removing the original battery you will void warranty. For me, no chances.
I am considering the zenfone 2 as an option for my next phone. Thing is, i dont like the idea to have after 2-3 Years get rid of the phone because the battery is gone.
I searched the web and didnt find a original or third party replacement battery.
Is that possible? Any Ideass guys?

Hey Marco!
You made my day! :good::highfive:
Thx for the link!!
Greetings from Germany . . .
Doesn't matter if you see the point or think the phone is already too big. I want a battery case much like the ZeroLemon case for the Galaxy Note series. I dont care how big or bulky my phone is, I have huge hands and I would prefer to have a phone that lasts two days instead of one that looks pretty.
I myself have looked for either a bigger battery, or a case, and have found nothing...
Unfortunately the only solution would be to carry a power bank of some sort. I guess the phone isn't that popular .

I purchased mine in AsusParts, took 2-3 weeks cause it ships from Asia to Europe and then to your country, installed and everything works fine ATM.
Before, I tried at AliExpress but they sent the wrong battery, I think Zenfone 5 has the same battery with a different connector (check my thread about screen replacement in Q&A section for more info)
Yeah, I have tried to find something like that without success.

Just wondering if anyone has found 3rd party batteries for the atrix yet?
I'm curious about this as well. I missed having options for battery when I switched to iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 (like with Treo and BlackBerry). As a mobile addict, I miss extended batteries (even though larger). I hope to have these choices for Atrix and hope the switch to Android doesn't serious piss me off.

Welcome, it may take a bit, bit I think you will be glad you switched.
Also, I am sure third party batteries will show up after a few weekes particularly if the phone is popular.
I'm sure Seidio will have a bunch of accessories out shortly.
I truly wouldn't mind one of the extended battery Juice Pack cases like I had for my iPhone. They added some bulk, but they nearly doubled my battery life on my iPhone, and they are simple to take off plus you don't have to pull out your phone's battery to do it.

With 1930mAh battery installed + laptop dock for 8 more hours running ability, I don't think I need an extra battery more.
I used it very heavily at work. Maybe got like 6hrs out of the oem battery.
Which is the best I have had in all the smart phones Ive used
LOL the battery is large but the way I use my phones I don't know if it will last all day; I looked on eBay a few minutes ago and didn't really see anything.
I have the standard and went and bought two extra batteries for the phone for the days I was out and didbt have access to a charger.

Keep dreaming - mophie (manufacturer of the Juice Pack) steadfastly refuses to offer products for non i- whatevers. I've talked to them about it previously. Only way it'll happen is if Motorola or some other company makes one, and that hasn't happened.

your right i did not think of this. Most people overlook this fact,
I got spoiled by multiple gen-you-whine Motorola batteries for my StarTac. Between the main battery, the AAA tray to replace that, and the piggyback battery...who needed AC?
But I've also found an AWFUL LOT of battery suppliers are junk. Some mislabeled with bogus capacity, some that just don't hold a charge well, some that knock wood I never got, that catch fire.
I don't like gen-you-whine battery prices, especially for a new phone, but I'd be real careful about buying from other vendors right now. Or are there some other vendors you have found that can trust, by brand name?
Supposedly...with standard microUSB power plugs, we are supposed to just use a "powerpack" to recharge the phones on the fly. There's something to be said for doing it that way too, I guess.
My battery states 1880 mAH on the back of it...i thought it should be 1930 mAh
1880...1930...Could be a change in production with one manufacturer being slightly better or a slight change in the process. If you think of them both as "1905+-25mA" it really is just a small difference in battery life.
Maybe that's why some of the 1880's are being sold off cheap, they've been obsoleted?

There are loads of batteries out there. Just search for BH6X or BH-6X. Some sellers say they are for Atrix, others for Droid X. I believe its the same battery as the extended droid (I hope!). I just bought one from a US based seller for $21 on EBAY.
FWIW I pulled mine out, it is 1880mA. And that's a phone that shipped last week.

You are trying to solve the every smartphone's problem of needing a daily charge in the completely wrong way.
Buy additional batteries (I have a total of 4 original ones) and separate desktop battery chargers (I have 2 original ones) and you will never again have "battery anxiety" nor will you have ever again to keep your smartphone chained down to a wallet charger since you will be charging each battery separately from the phone...
I have been doing this since MANY years on my last 6 smartphones and I am continually shocked to see how seemingly few people are taking advantage of this setup... Even "powerusers" on xda!
For me there is NO other way and I consider "smart"phones with integrated batteries as useless, worthless toys...

Are you also using desktop battery chargers? If the answer is yes I would really like to know why you want to mess around with non-original batteries...
All of the tests (or at least the professionally done ones..) that I have seen show that most of these batteries have sensibly lower real mAh than the nominal ones and/or degrade pretty more quickly. The few good ones are invariably the expensive ones which, when they grant appreciable higher mAh than the original ones, are also sensibly bigger and heavier and require different, "bulging" back covers to accomodate them which means that they can most probably not be docked anymore in the car mount or in the desktop dock (if you use one), are less comfortable to pocket, make the phone heavier and ruin the design too (not much important this last point but still), YUCK!

Well, Mugen makes quality batteries and it's a known brand. The chinese no-name batteries are not. We do not know how it's made, what materials has been used and so on. It's not worth the risk IMO. If that battery melts or worse; explodes, you won't only lose the 10 dollars you used - your device and maybe even your leg/face will get damaged.

I think most of the people don't like multiple batteries as that requires popping out the accessory cover/case AND the phone cover every single time to swap the battery. Of course, the batteries and their chargers need to be carried around too. All this is tedious and most don't like this inconvenience, so they prefer a battery with higher mAh instead of multiple batteries.

Turning the phone off, swapping batteries and turning the phone on takes all of 30 sec.
Now compare 30 seconds to keeping your phone "on a leash" every single day for 2-3 HOURS to a wall charger... and you call THAT "tedious"????
As for cases, I have NEVER used cases on any of my phones (hate them for all the reasons listed again below) so I won't comment on that other than noting that you talk about cases but with bigger batteries you can't use cases AT ALL so that's just another disadvantage of bigger than original batteries!

Just the batteries, of course (you take with you however many you may need), what would be the reason for carrying around the chargers??
You charge your battery/batteries once you get back home.
An extended battery will NEVER last as long as just 2 original batteries (besides making it fatter, heavier, uncomfortable, not dockable etc) and with multiple batteries you can cover completely whatever you need to do with your smartphone even for short multi-day complete trips. Imagine being out camping, with extended batteries you would have to bring with you heavy external batteries anyway to which you would ALSO have to keep your Note tethered to for hours to recharge...
Very long trips? Of course you take the battery charger (very slim and light BTW and doubles as a stand to boot) with you, exactly like you would have to take your normal charger with external batteries.
There is no real point AGAINST additional batteries and there are PLENTY FOR IT.
It's a no brainer for any poweruser (i.e. anyone who actually NEEDS and USES smartphones...).
I'm always testing out new types of chargers but i agree, official charger and then one or two spare batteries - no more battery anxiety

Yep, didn't notice the BL-T7 before you pointed it out. That said the issue with the T7 was the stepped design that made it thicker. This one appears flat like the T9 that comes in the N5. So there is a possibility if the stepped design wasn't used that the battery could fit.
Personally I have no battery issues, the thing lasts all day for me and then some. However if I ever did have battery issues it would be nice to know there was something to upgrade to.
Seems like too much trouble for a phone that doesn't really have battery problems anyway.

Just because you and I and some others have no issues doesn't mean there's not legions of others who do. Like I said, I have no issues despite medium use, but I know many people that use their phones differently than I who need a beefier battery. Seeing as how it's not too terribly difficult to get to the battery, if there is a 3000mah one that works with our phones, why not let those people who need it use it?
You and I are most assuredly in the minority of people with no battery issues though, of that I'm certain.

But for those people who do need more battery, what's a 3000mah really going to do? Give you another couple hours? They'd be better served getting an external battery that would double their phone time and still only be the size of a tube of lipstick rather than tear their phones apart and void their warranties.

I don't disagree with you, but just playing with numbers, if the phone lasts 10 hours with the 2300, then it would be over 13 hours with a 3000, could be the difference between finding a charger mid day and not worrying about it. For some people the few hours is all the difference so why carry around a charger when you only need a few more?
Again though, I don't disagree with you, it's just that with the immense diversity in the way people use their phones, there isn't an easy solution to apply to all. For some the stock is good, for some a couple extra hours is what they need, and for others they'll need an external battery pack, just all depends on the user and their needs.

Better ask yourself why Google doesn't want you to change the battery.
For me a changeable battery is a must-have. I'm a heavy user, and this is my first Nexus device (since Samsung Galaxies und HTCs). Since it does not have a changeable battery I'm using now a anker power bank which charges the Nexus5 pretty fast. But this does it hurt my Nexus battery? What if my Nexus battery is crap? Looking at my old S3 und old HTC devices this happend to me.
Looks like the seller is under the impression that the nexus 5 32gb came with a 3000mah battery like some of the rumors suggested. My guess is that the seller isn't up to date with his information.

Looks like the seller is under the impression that the nexus 5 32gb came with a 3000mah battery like some of the rumors suggested. My guess is that the seller isn't up to date with his information. I highly doubt this battery fits......but if someone wants to go for it be my guest and report back please :laugh::laugh::laugh::good::good:

This was my thoughts too.
As for the others saying 3000mah wouldn't be worth the swap should watch the iFixit teardown. It is stupid simple to do a 1 time swap. Also my battery generally last the whole day but i have had a few where i needed to plug it in to keep it form prematurely dying on me when i needed to use it. I am a guy that likes to have as little items as possible. I have 2 keys on my key ring, my car, and my house, no bling keychains. So carrying a external power bank is my last choice. While at work i just plug it in when needed, which has been never so far. But on weekends is where i find it falling short as i tend to use the phone more.
tagging along
The problem is going to be, even if someone does make a battery that is compatible with the Nexus 5, its going to be some no name Chinese battery and it will never actually live up to the mah rating that its sold as. So even if they do sell a "3000 mah" battery for the Nexus 5, it would be amazing if the real rating of the battery was even 2500mah. Unless these no name battery companies have really upped their game in the last year or two, they almost never actually deliver the battery capacities that they list.
I personally wouldn't buy batteries from ebay. Too much risk for the amount of savings. Best case scenario is that it doesn't hold the stated charge, worse case is that it explodes on you like so many reports have indicated with people using no name third party accessories.
sorry the link

I've bought two different OEM batteries made in China for my netbook and both are poor quality despite the manufacturer's claims. Unfortunately I could not find any Japanese or Korean cells. I'm not going to gamble on putting an OEM battery inside my Nexus.
Lol. Larger capacity batteries, and in original size? There's no official manufacturer and can only be bought from ebay? Sounds like the various ones mentioned in the other flagship forums, like the S4. The story usually turns out the same. Someone baits desperate readers in, then when buyers get it, a bunch of them come back saying they don't see a difference despite advertised of being +25% larger, calling it a fraud. Buy only if you are susceptible to the placebo affect.
I just bought this phone and am thinking about keeping it long term (beyond two years) and am thinking of buying a battery now in case I'd like to replace it later on in life. It just seems like finding batteries now would be easier than a couple of years from now.
Anyone know where to find an OEM 3000mah battery?
Lithium Batteries need to be recharged regularly, if you put it in a drawer for a few years without charging you're in for a nasty surprise once you build it into your phone.
You ought to be really sure if you plan to replace this device's battery one day...
I mean, the whole disassembly process is a pain in the ass. I just recently f*cked the display trying to fix the buttons.
Why not invest in a good powerbank instead like Xiaomi's 10k Mah?
Use it to prolong your phone battery by not letting it drop too low and thus saving your phone battery from degrading faster

Yea, I heard Moto is giving iFixit some OEM replacement parts to sell to customers. Cool.

Actually after 30 charges, you should pretty much let your battery drain before charging.
How about buying battery from iFixit?
i bought one with a bad esn from ebay for parts.
Is it morally reprehensible? probably.
Do i care? no
I usually do this for every phone i've ever owned for any real amount of time.
It would be useful if people stumbling upon this thread mention their country in the thread so that people who know the process and source can help better
Hi everyone,
I've been thinking about replacing my battery and a quick search on Ebay led me to find some sellers who claim to have a 3700 mAh batteries.
Now my first response is to not trust these batteries and just get an original one, which I probably will, but I'm really curious if anyone here has tried one?
Here are a couple of links to these 3700 mAh batteries:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/3700mAh-BL...652403?hash=item2cd4142a73:g:wjEAAOSwsxJa9Isl
What are your thoughts about these?
Don't get any battery that isn't a OnePlus Battery. If you have a choice, never go for the battery that is advertised with a different amperage.
Go for a 3400mAh battery, better if it's a OnePlus original. Since our devices uses Dash Charge, which is only on OnePlus devices, it's best to go for an original, since we cannot know what effect DC will have on third party batteries.
Unless your battery has degraded lower than 50% and you need an emergency replacement till your original arrives, these batteries should not be trusted. There even may be a risk of high thermals and degrading your other phone hardware too.

Exactly my thought. Was just wondering if anyone was mad enough to actually try one of these. You never know, maybe they are unexpectedly good :silly:
Can you point me to any original OnePlus battery replacement?

Ditto, I judt called OnePlus (US support line) and they told me they don't cell the battery or any replacement parts, I would have to send the phone for service to their authorized center.
So does anyone know where I can an original, third party seller one?
I purchased this one a few weeks ago, can't fault it!
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152704815983
I think they sell via a website as well.

But this one is not original. Won't we have problem at long term? and it's 3300 mah, right?

Have a look and read on the product page of their website:
https://www.replacebase.co.uk/for-oneplus-3t-replacement-battery-blp633-3300mah-oem/
All I can say is, it's better than the tired one I took out!
I just replaced my OP3T battery with a replacement from here:
https://www.mobilesupplies.nl/oneplus-3t-batterij-blp633-3400-mah-origineel.html
It says it's an original and so far it works like a charm. Will report back on how it performs.

What does the difference between "rated" and "typical" means? I don't understand.

Rated means how much it is designed to have, and tested is the actual amount of MAh in the battery. With every battery there is a difference between rated and tested. 3300MAh tested is actually really good.
I wonder how much the original batteries are tested for.

In their page, they say "Capacity: 3300mAh (rated) 3400mAh (typical)"
BTW, does anyone notice that after replacing the battery, the AccuBattery app is completely out of whack?
I cleared the data to get some clean info on my new battery, but after two or three charges, the app sees my new battery as ~2500mAh and with every charge it's rising. (My last battery was calculated as ~2800mAh)
So far it seems that the battery lasts longer, so the data from the app is conflicting...
I know that the AB app data isn't really reliable in comparison to real measuring equipment, but I'm just wondering about this.
I have replaced it, but it says that it have 0% charge, and doesn't charge anymore. Any help?
Edit: The seller have sent one more to me; it's corrupt, they say.

Ok. The new one have arrive and I have the same problem. Was your replacement plug & play? Were you on OOS?
Both batteries shows 0% battery when I attach them.

In my experience non-OEM batteries start to degrade after a few months. How has yours held up? I'm looking to replace mine if I can find a genuine OEM part.

The one I bought is supposed to be genuine, it even bears a OnePlus logo. But the first died on me in a week or two, so I got a free replacement from them, and so far it fares great. AccuBattery reports it as being well above 3000mAh, and I can reach the end of the day with my phone again, so I'm quite happy.
so why does everyone praise oneplus for their easy to repair devices and parts and build quality and all, if I can't even buy a replacement part? I'm forced to buy a new phone because my battery is broken. So next time I will go and buy a Samsung. Harder to open and all but I can buy a original battery in any other store.

There are plenty of stores that sell original batteries. And a plethora of non-original batteries to choose from too.
I just send my phone back to OP and have them replace the battery under warranty (It's covered.)
