Is there anything better than OEM?

I don't know about "better than OEM". In my opinion you are better off sticking with Samsung. The problem is making sure what you buy is genuine. Ebay or gumtree etc it's hard to know whether it is OEM or just a cheap knockoff. One alternative is Anker brand. They have a pretty good reputation for quality
i need one

Get the anker 1900mah battery online either from amazon or from ebay. 'Genuine' batteries are hard to find nowadays.

I came across this on eBay and I was wondering if these are legit or counterfeit or what...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/2-X-1750mah-...US_Batteries&hash=item2319062694#ht_500wt_922
For the price of two, it's a great deal, but only if they are real Samsung batteries.
Has anyone ordered them?
It say OEM. So I'd assume so, google that model number..return it if it isn't.

Kinda shady
$13.88 for two batteries? I wouldn't risk it. Sure you're spending about $15 for two batteries, but then you might damage your $600 phone. There are other reputable eBay sellers such as shimshop who are selling genuine batteries and other accessories for reasonable prices. Hope this helps.

Yeah, that's my concern, but what makes these different from Mugen or Seidio batteries? I've had back luck with one of those brands and paid a lot more for the batteries from them. If they are real Samsung's, it's a good deal, no? I guess I can always get Samsung to confirm the serial number on the batteries to confirm they are legit, and EBay offers buyer protection if they are fakes.
These would be spares anyways, not everyday use... I would literally charge them and put me in the fridge for when I need them on an extended outing or something.

Difference is the NFC antenna.

These eBay batteries in question have NFC (as they would being OEM). It says so right on the battery itself. I'm talking more about reliability. Are the expensive "brand name" compatible batteries better then "cheapo" eBay ones. And again, these are allegedly original Samsung's.
Now, I did see similar batteries which had the "A" in Samsung reversed so it looks like a "V"... Obviously, those are fakes, but the sellers never claimed them to be originals anyways.
Hi! I´m looking for an extra battery for my s3, I wanted to buy anker from amazon, but it does not ship to my country (Argentina). So, I have to choose another one on ebay. Does anybody have any experiencie with those chinese batteries that are on ebay? Any recommendations?

Yes, get the Anker battery. It's the best value for the money.

Hi, thanks!! But Anker does not ship to my country, thats why i was looking for an alternative. Mugen is too expensive...
Can anyone recommend a seller of genuine standard batteries from experience? Looking on ebay and amazon there are plenty of people selling them but there always some people reviewing them as fakes. I thought about the anker batteries but reports of them exploding are a bit off putting, unless it's down to the charger and the batteries are fine.
I don't really want to spend the extra on the extended battery as I'd need a new case as well.
Forgot to say I'm in the UK.
Cheers
Go to Amazon.co.UK and buy from them directly. There gonna be cheaper marketplace offers but just ignore them.

Looked on amazon but there aren't any sold by amazon directly, it's all sold bysomeone else and fulfilled by amazon. With reviews from great to bad reviews saying the battery was rubbish and lighter than the original.

Hello
Does anyone know legit ebay seller for this kind of battery, i have ordered some batteries for phones in the past but mostly when they come they hold very little charge and looks like bad clones. I would like someone to recommend a good and legit ebay seller in europe preferably for faster delivery.
Regards
Amazon. Search OEM battery for your device. Buy one that's specifically for the phone.

I've never seen any kind of battery case for any phone that cheap. The best you can do is to buy a portable battery pack.
