- More capacity in the same form factor
- Fits in existing space so no replacement door is needed

So, basically a fancy replacement battery. Guess it will all come down to price. If it's only $5-$10 more than a standard replacement, I'd definitely get the slightly higher capacity pack.
I'd really be interested in a major capacity bump and a replacement door. Could give it a battery sized bulge, or an iphone 3gs (and earlier) style curved back.

i bet its not even really 2200mah and will not outlast the oem battery and will be more expensive if past batteries they release are an indication.

They did tests over on the captivate forum with crap ebay china batteries and even the Seidio batteries and they were ask worse than the oem despite having higher mah. The seidio actually just barely beat the $5 ebay one despite being like 17x more expensive.

be good to see but with a dock for everything they'd have to be real careful or they'll make a lot of people not care ^_^

you say that, but using basic electrical formulas for batteries, and the fact that the 1900mAhr battery can net me 36 hours on a charge. the extra 300mAhrs would give another 5.6 hours. That isn't insignificant.
of course that all assumes they can deliver on promises.

Its really impossible to do in the way batteries work

My experience with aftermarket batteries (for all kinds of devices) is that they rarely outlast the OEM batteries, no matter what mAh spec the manufacturer prints on the label. Most of them don't even last as long as the OEM batteries.
But hey, maybe these Seidio engineers have enabled cold fusion.

I just got 2 Motorola BH6X batteries on eBay for 12 bucks including shipping. I don't care about continuously charging batteries overnight, **** paying 50~65 bucks for a fancy battery that lasts 2 more hours. People should utilize eBay more instead of investing in gimmicks.

lol just wait a few months when your ebay batteries stop holding a charge and see if you still go back to ebay for batteries...and its not 2 more hours, oem batteries usually last 30-40% longer than ebay ones.

I've bought tons of batteries from eBay, they all worked perfectly. I guess I must be lucky. I don't know where you pulled those statistics from but whatever, everyone has different results. What works for one person clearly might not work for the other. To each his own.

http://batteryboss.org/ ---> this one compares oem and some aftermarket brands like seidio
Nexus One, OEM 1400mAh tested at 1357mAh
Nexus one, Seidio 3200mAh tested at 2691mAh
Nexus one, Seidio 1600mAh tested at 1305mAh --->not bad but this one is double the price of the oem
i never said ebay batteries dont work, they just dont work very well...even if you get lucky and get an ebay battery that close to the listed mah it will start loosing capacity withing a few month, they have fewer charging cycles than an oem battery. i used to buy ebay batteries for my phones and laptops but start to realized batteries are not something you want to go cheap on but im glad that they are working out so far for you.

Guess I just got lucky. Oh well, what works for someone might not work for other people. No biggie, sucks for the people who bought **** batteries.

[Q] Seidio Innocell 1600mAh Slim Extended Life Battery

What do ya think guys? Snake oil or not? I'm tempted since, if the rating it true, it is a significant increase for us vs the small increase to the epic 4g guys. My question is how much more can you squeeze out of a defined space of Lithium Ion batts? Or is this just Seidio just re-rating a battery higher than it truly is?

No No No... Stay away from there Batteries.
I had this one and returned it. They lie on there Batt Ratings.

Its as good as the OEM and more expensive. Do the math

I have it and get 20 hours per charge. Moderate use. Off of 4g most the time (WiFi). I am very satisfied. Plus now I have a backup.

While I have my doubts about their ratings accuracy and I'm not as good at math as I was when fresh out of uni, I do believe 1600 is greater than 1400.

yeah i dont know from past history of their batteries but my 1600 was def worth it

Does the battery meter calibrate this right? I have the 2750 extended and the battery meter always sticks at like 60% for a few hours -_-

i have the seido battery, i have no feelings about it, i have my stock battery right now, will try the seido battery one more time tomorrow.

I'd pass. They're rated higher than their actual capacity. There is no worldwide battery calibration police so companies can basically rate their batteries at whatever they want. Do a quick google search and there was a test someone did where they discharged various batteries and OEM did best.

The whole point of that statement is that the battery doesn't perform like a 1600mAh. The number is fake (that poster's opinion, not mine; I've never used Seidio's).

I've used Seidio batterys in the past and been pleased. I just do not think that a 1600 mAh battery is enough for the bolt.

whats the biggest battery we can stick in a tbolt with the stock battery cover? 1750?

I had stock size seidio on other android device and to be honest... it is not worth to pay almsot twice the price for maybe 10% longer lasting battery. Unless you can live with thicker extended battery, 1400mah stock is the way to go.

I had the 1750 for my Droid Inc and was more than satisfied. It lasted longer than the stock 1300. I know many people who had it and did not have this type of luck. I believe that Seidio batteries are luck of the draw.
They ratings that manufactures and vendors put on their batteries can come from a couple of different place. They can put the maximum expected output, average expected, etc. I've seen a lot of testing done and Seidio along with other companies seem to prefer the maximum expected. This doesn't mean you'll get that rating, just that it could possibly provide that much in certain circumstances.
I had the DX and purchased their extended battery and it truly was phenomenal. Reports had the mAh rating on that thing bouncing around because it was different depending on whether you looked in VZW's system or talked to Moto.
End of the day, the worst you will get is a spare battery. Since this battery would only jump from 1400 to 1600 I'm not sure I would bite. The 1300 to 1750 was definitely a sizable jump. The battery was actually larger, but in reality I found it performed as well as the official HTC 1500 found in the EVO and Sprint Hero.

I've used Seidio batteries in my past Blackberrys, my Dinc, and DX with good results. Ordered two of these for my Tbolt and was disappointed. Tossed them in a drawer and picked up two more OEM 1400s as spares (I travel a lot).
Dunno if it is the Tbolt or...?

I sent mine back, I did not see a difference at all

I've never owned a Seido battery, so I can't make a judgement from personal experience. However, I've read mixed reviews from others and I figure that if it was possible to cram a greater capacity battery into the tbolt without requiring a larger cover, htc would have done so. A 1600 mAh battery won't last significantly longer than the original, so you are proly better off buying another OEM or cheap one from eBay

Battery Thread discussion

I was thinking about getting a back-up battery soon and I always had 3 1900 mah batteries for my iphones with an extension cable to plug in
I'm not sure what kind of battery i'm going to buy because of case's and screen protectors, I'd like to go with just replacement battery but if I have to take the case off all the time and maybe disturb the screen protector that wouldn't be good so I was thinking about doing the same as with my iphones with a cable

Goto monoprice. They have 2800 mah batteries. Works great.
I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.

i prefer the 4200 mAh solar powered from Deal Extreme (with optional wall/usb port re-charging in case you need it in a hurry)
it works everywhere
it's great when you work outdoors and no power outlets nearby

If you can hold out it worth it for the price. Just need to find a good female/male micro usb cable. The only one i could find so far is motorola's one, but its too short. But it is better than having that battery directly plugged in.

why not try anker astro, looks far more well made, if you look at both picture carefully, you may figure it out the anker one have a higher capacity but with, smaller size. i don't trust those cheap, made in china batteries. i have one of anker astro, see my attachment. already used 2 weeks, very handy. i take it long with me all the day.

What I don't understand is that until this day all the various sites told me tha the battery in the GN is 1750 mAh. But: http://www.google.com/nexus/#/tech-specs tells us that ther is a 1850 mAh battery in the GN.
Can I say cheers to the extra 100 mAh?

I thought I heard somewhere that the 1850 is the LTE version. Not sure why Google doesn't differentiate it like they do the other LTE-specific specs

Thanks! That would explain the difference.

I'd really like a large external battery with solar power. I bought one from eBay and it was terrible. Never charged my phone past 20%
Any suggestions? I dont care how much it costs, I just want the best, most powerful unit.

Monoprice has a 2800 mah battery for ~$15. Then find you a cable witg female micro usb and male micro usb on the other. Its not solar but a decent alternative.

[OFFICIAL THREAD] Anker battery 1900mah

Hello there.
Im new here but i saw that there are a lot of posts about those batteries but there is no main thread to explain\share\review information about this batteries.
so I thought we need this one.
What is ANKER? Anker is a brand of batteries Fantasia Trading LLC company known more as a U.S. laptopmate
They have a website? Yes, [link will be here later]
What is special about the battery? The ANKER batteries reach a volume of 1900MAH Unlike the original Samsung battery [1650MAH], as of this moment is the most powerful battery-sized or enlarged with same size as original.
There is also a battery of 1750, does not interest most of us when the 1900
Okay, and how long a battery that adds me? It adds about 20%, of course it depends on the use
Do I need a new cover? No, the battery is the same size as the original so that it fits your device without the new cover
Is safe to use? Nothing is certain in this life, but so far everyone who has this battery was pleased ...
I heard about the guy that blew a battery ... has a documented case of a guy on XDA generic charger used to charge the battery outside the device, if you use an external charger use only original ANKER
Must use external charger? No, the battery is loaded in the device excellent with the original samsung charger.
OK, so where I buy it? The battery is not available for sale in all countries directly,but you can check\buy it from the manufacturer's EBAY or AMAZON store
What are most recommended initial charging? Recommended to 3 ~ 4 full discharge cycles (0% -100%) before starting to use a normal battery
more Q&A to come

reserved/reserved

I got this battery 2 months now and is really decent (i paid 11euros all included). With medium usage and 100 apps on my phone it's enough for one day. 50 apps and low usage with wifi on all day i get 50% by the time i go to bed.

Is this one really better than the stock battery? and is it works?

Well it having an extra 250mah will give it about 20% extra juice. And yes it does work.

The reason I asked is because other brands on ebay claims the same but from what I've seen the other says they actually worse than Sam's original one and just fake.
it seems Anker is the only one on ebay which is works good?

No this one is actually better. Not 20% but about 15%. It keeps me running for on day with medium to heavy usage.

It is a good battery at a good price. However, I have noticed that sometimes when my battery drops to <15%, the phone will just turn off right away without discharging all the way to 0%. Other than that it's worth the money.

I have had nothing but trouble since I bought mine. Bought froma reputable Ebay dealer.
Random freeze ups, phone would just die.
Tried multiple ROMS/Multiple kernels. Always thought it HAD to be something I was running, but when I went back to factory , my phone was stable again.
It's quite a drawn out story, but long story short, Im curious if I got a dud or if they all have a similar flaw?!?

No problems here. As other users wrote... it's not actually a 20% improvement but it is an improvement. I think that my battery is about 10% better but that's based on my average usage and observations.

Sounds like yours is a dud. I got two (had them shipped back home, then family shipped them to me since ebay seller didn't ship to Korea) and they work very well in my Korean SII, lasts longer than my stock batteries now.

are there any over heating problems with this battery?

Just brought this battery from Amazon for £10.99 will post update when I have got it and used it for awhile. Seems like a good bargain for the extra juice and the fact that it is the same size as original battery seems great

i am using it and i am fu**ing love it indeed

hi there you say everyone is happy that bought the battery -- iam not
mine lasted for 2 minutes before blowing up , iam not the only user that has had this either
if you read the amazon reviews for the sensation anker battery and the sgs2 anker battery other people have had them blow up as well
you say to only charge them in an offical anker charger but 90% of the places that sell them sell them with a cheap chinese charger and you havent shown any pictures of the genuine charger or anything which is a bit useless -- for those wanting to know it is white and has black writting that says ''anker'' the cheap chinese chargers are black and crap
also laptop me or whoever they are didnt give a monkeys about the battery blowing up and when i emailed them they didnt respond -- great customer services that
iam sorry but for £16 you can buy a genuine samsung battery with a bigger mah rating that can als be charged in an offical samsung desktop charger why risk house fires etc with an exploding battery and dodgy chinese charger
i wouldnt recomend the anker battery to my worst enemy let alone a forum full of sgs2 users looking for a bigger battery
a quick google of ''anker exploding battery'' will bring you back quite a few hits of other users and exploding batterys one guy had one explode in his phone

also why another thread on anker batterys?? we already have a few in this section already running what makes this an offical one?? is the op laptopme pushing their batterys or something??

I got two of these batteries and one charged off the ebay.. I'm using it for more than 20 days and it is working quite good. would say the battery lasting at least %10 to %20 more than the stock battery and I'm loving it
Thanks

Mugen 2300mAh battery-is it worth it?

I'm thinking of getting the Mugen 2300 milliamp/hour battery, but for 44 dollars, is it worth it? I game a lot, download a bunch of apps or update them, facebook, browse Google Play, etc. Will I have any issues with my Speck Candyshell case? I'm thinking of this one because its size is the same as the OEM battery and I don't wanna have to get a new battery door.

been using the iphone past month just switched back to the s3 today. Well last night.
Battery fits oem door. On my first charge so i cant comment on battery life.
Theres a 7 percent discount code that u can get on the website, i forgot where. I bought it when it was on sale for 38.
Shipping takes about a week and a half. They ship from china!

for the price, i would say no
its better to get the oem samsung battery.
its cheaper i think
slighly smaller capacity
but at least its made by samsung and can be more trusted
just my $0.02

Bad resource. I'm using Mugen Power for 2 years already and cannot imagine an Android phone without their battery.
The 2300mAh is more of a replacement battery, because it only adds 200mAh, but if you really need power, I'd go for their 4600mAh battery.

Looks interesting. It doesn't seem like its false information but maybe they decided on making better quality for the S3 batteries. I'll be receiving the 4600mAH Mugen battery soon and I'll have bench mark comparisons against the Hyperion, Anker, QCell, and Seidio. Hopefully it turns out ok for the price Mugen's charging us.

For the price it's just better to get one of the extended batteries /w door off Amazon. They're cheap and juice filled.
I'm using the OEM, because I don't want a huge-mungo thickness out of my thin phone and the battery services me well enough.

I wouldn't spend that much. I bought two Qcell batteries and a charger on Amazon for $25. They advertise 2300mah. Not sure if it's truly 2300 but it last just as long if not a tiny bit longer than my stock battery. They also have NFC built in. Individually the Qcell batteries are $10, so you could have 3 spare batteries and a charger for less than the price of one mugen battery.
I've been using the Qcells for about 2 months now. I havnt had any issues with them and NFC works great.

I also use the QCell batteries and they work great. One of the best deals on batteries in my opinion. I have also tried other ones from eBay and they don't even come close to the QCell ones.

Looks interesting. It doesn't seem like its false information but maybe they decided on making better quality for the S3 batteries. I'll be receiving the 4600mAH Mugen battery soon and I'll have bench mark comparisons against the Hyperion, Anker, QCell, and Seidio. Hopefully it turns out ok for the price Mugen's charging us.[/QUOTE
I also just received a 4600 mugen for my s3 I can not find a case I tried a hyperion and it did not fit. Do you have a case on ur s3 with your mugen battery?
