Where the cheapest place to find OEM batteries? Genuine
Sent from my Unnamed 2.0.1 EL29 powered Galaxy S2 brought to you by Sprint
Probably eBay. Not sure if this is the cheapest, but I found one for you http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SAMSUNG...Accessories&hash=item41650839da#ht_500wt_1156
$18.95 and from the US.
Trustworthy to be genuine?

Read the feedback and decide for yourself. If you are worried about a fake battery then spend a few extra bucks and buy retail.

I think so, I mean 25 were sold and feedback seems good (100%).
Positive feedback usually occurs right after the product is purchased. For products like batteries if you are looking for oem quality, you are best going paying retail at a reliable store. There are to many fakes out there if you are trying to find a real oem quality battery. Most that I have found and tried have been sub par. If you are looking for some extra power as a back up, go ahead and take the risk if you see something interesting. If you need the reliability, spend the extra at the store.
Even expensive 3rd party like Mugen and Sedieo fall way short of their ratings when tested. Google it. I would post a link, but am not allowed to do so yet.
You are gambling unless you go to a store. That is if you absolutely want a real 1800mah battery. There are too many fakes and creating a battery that looks oem is too cheap and easy.

Amazon has great return policies and the prices are very good.
Are there any nfc equipped batteries and even more importantly would our phone be capable to use that technology? I'm not really sure how that works and anyone who can enlighten me, much thanks.

It usually takes a while for spare parts and batteries to show up. Your best bet is probably to check if any other phone uses the exact same battery.

the battery in the GN has the nfc reader built-in. I can't think of another handset that has a battery with a built in nfc reader, so it looks like people will need to wait for a GN specific battery.

Expansys have an official battery, item listing does state "please note: temporary picture"
They do list the right capacity for the battery, and I would've expected £30 for it considering it has the NFC aerial built in also.

not really a great price considered that with 40$ you can buy this:

sblantipodi I guess you don't know the average cost of genuine mobile phone batteries in the UK then. £30 is a reasonable expected price for this battery.

Anyway they are honest reps.
Awesome. I had their Anker batter for my Sensation and I really loved it. I have been keeping an eye out for since I switched to this.
I am coming from the myTouch 4G Slide. I have the 2 Anker Battery pack with the charger (Would link here to amazon but still havent posted 8 times - Just search Amazon for "Anker 2 mytouch 4g slide" and it should be the 1st one)
Can anyone confirm if this Anker "Universal Charger" will work OK recharging the Samsung OEM batteries for the SG2? I need to invest in a 2nd battery and since Anker is late to the party here I wanted to be sure I won't ruin the OEM batt if I use this universal charger.

Just checked on Amazon by keyword searching, and happened to find actually Anker already have t989 battery for sale.
Here is the buying link:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006BHTA8Y
BTW, it seems batteries of this brand are gaining much popularity.
I'm confused...why is this better than the stock battery? It appears to be rated for less juice and it doesn't have NFC.

usually it has more than stock, and the battery time is about equivalent to stock for about 1/3 of the price, that's probably why people like it.

Hello guys i have a amazon credit and i wana use it up before it expire on wednesday. i wana buy a battery for my galaxy nexus which battery on amazon is good? i need a battery that will givee me a day with heavy usage. size dont matter. thanks for any help
I know you mentioned Amazon, but I wanted to give you an exact link to the product I bought. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120832462058&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160 I really like this product, it only adds a tiny bit to the overall size and adds about an hour of heavy usage. If you are going to be using it non stop I'd recommend figuring out how long the current battery you use lasts under normal circumstances then approximate how big of a battery you would need from there.

yes, this is genuine from samsung, so it does have NFC built in.Personally i'm gonna buy this in a short time .
This looks like a good deal for me but I had a question with the NFC chip. Will there be an issue with google wallet if I try to use a different nfc chip? I wasn't sure if they were somehow tied together from google/samsung. Thanks for the link and the great info!!
The NFC chip is located in your phone. The only thing on your battery is an antenna. As to the original poster: I've had this battery ever since they started selling and it's totally legit.

That's not true, the NFC is located on the battery. However, the product itself is legit.
Yeah, most such ebay listingsa are fake / not genuine / ripoffs. If you're willing to spend that much, why not buy from Samsung directly?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EtCQH2eZYI I would think this is the same as the ebay one, although it's from Negri.
As far as I know, shimshop is a good ebay seller to get phone parts/accesories from.

If you're in the U.S., I would say buy from Expansys since they're in Illinois. Shimshop ships from S. Korea.

I ordered a battery from each of these sellers. I ordered the one from eXpansys on June 29th and it still has not shipped. I ordered from shimshop on July 6th and I received an email stating it will ship Monday, July 9th. The shipping might take longer from shimshop, but at least he ships quickly!

My choices on ebay are the OEM 2100 which are not really much cheaper than what verizon is running it on sale now or 3100 non-OEM one's that have NFC, but I don't want 3100.
I'm not familiar with the process for "buying" through the forum. Can you enlighten me. I'd be willing to do that if it was a good price. I guess I was just trying to see if anyone had stumbled on one and has experience with it. I'd like to spend $13 or so.

Well... buying on the forum... i guess it's all trust. Go to the appropriate thread and find someone who said they have an extra (there are a few over at the thread about the Sprint 2100 offer). This usually has to do with Paypal, but just PM the guy/gal and see what you can arrange with them.
BTW, are you located in the US or elsewhere?
