The new galaxy 4G is brong released with a 1650 mAh battery and we currently have a 1500 mAh. How much of a difference is that?

No, but that is very interesting. Just standard procedure... When vibrant first came out people cried about bad battery life.

10%. Lol. I think bigger and bigger batteries will be gracing phones this year, with the not-much-bigger-than-the-vibrant motorola atrix 4g sporting a much more sizeable 1950mAH battery.
It doesn't seem that much bigger, i wonder how much it adds to the width. Also could be for the added '4g' or it could be just because they could, but I dont think battery life has been bad on the vibrant.
The 4G radio probably will use a bit more power to function, so... yeah
More importantly, will the 4G battery fit in our Vibrants?

Um... 150 mAh. Doesn't your smart phone have a calculator app on it?
The new 1650mah will fit PERFECTLY in our vibrants. It is IDENTICAL in size.
It is the Giorgio Armani battery that was released on the Giorgio Armani Galaxy S version in Italy this month. Hope they are cheap cause im getting 1 or 2 when they come out.
Also to anyone that asks: 10% increases over stock
Note though that if you have had your phone for 6 months like me now, your old battery is likely decreased from the 1500mah it was when new so the new 1650 mah may seem like more than 10% for some.
Using a i9000 3000 mAh battery that I purchased on ebay (yes shipped from china) for $7.99. Love it. Yes its bigger but I like the back it came with better than stock. Lasts forever on bionix v. Like 48-60 hours with heavy use.
Hmm if I would buy a battery I would settle to 3000 mah instead of this, though this won't make our phones big.

Lol 48-60 on moderate use u mean.
Heavy use is like watching videos and browsing ng webs constantly with half to full brightness on.

Why would anyone go less than full brightness on the amazing SAMOLED screen?! Quite crazy if you ask me! I bought it to look at the beautiful screen, not worry about battery life and I get through the whole day with light-moderate use on Nero 5.
150mAh. look @ what public schools are doing to us. I will walk you through it:
1650
-1500

Whenever you see difference, you should subtract, and when you see sum, you should add!

Is Sprint sending out better batterys in replacements EVO
Cause I'm getting like 14 - 16
Hours stock unrooted

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Check the battery and see if its a 1500MaH...I think I may have heard they were, but I could be mistaken. Also your type of usage varies the battery life.
They have the same batteries which are 1500mah.
things that could be getting you better battery are
-Updates like 2.2 and 2.3 which improve performance and battery life.
-New battery, yes batteries get worn after a number of charging cycles.
-bad battery with your old phone.
-your old battery wasn't properly calibrated.
I'm rocking the sprint 2600mah battery they sell at the store, end up at 40% by the end of the day.(got it free) unplug at 5:30 am and plugs back in at 10pm every day.
That is with 10-15 phone calls, maybe 30mins-1hr browsing the web, 15-20 text messages and two hours of pandora along with 30mins of gaming( slice it and pew pew). With the stock battery I always ended up needing juice by 12pm. (On 3g, MAX brightness and 2 email accounts checking every 30minutes I think)

They do make batteries claimed to be 1900 mAh that fit in the Evo. In fact they're exactly the same size. Since a battery's capacity is linked pretty directly to its size, the general consensus is that the battery's ratings are being inflated. But having said that, a new battery will perform better than an old one (making it hard to compare if you're replacing an older OEM one), and they may even be somewhat better than a comparable stock battery. It just isn't likely to give you the expected percentage difference between a 1500 and a 1900 mAh battery.
I got them from here. It was a little bit thicker than the 1500mah but the back still snaps on fine. Noticed a bit more life but nothing to blow ya over.

I heard that you can put the Epic Touch battery (1800 mAh) into our regular Epic 4G phone...anyone have experience with it?
The stock Epic 4G battery is 1500 mAh, so theoretically the 1800 mAh battery of the Epic Touch should provide a little more battery life.

You should check out the accesories section they have reviews in there, and to answer your question, yes. It fits, although its a hair smaller.

Haha I hear that all the time
Got one from Amazon for $17. It feels the same fit to me and you get about 20% more life. Make sure to get an OEM, there are imitations out there.
I have an epic touch and an epic 4g. Et4g bat will drop right it. It is an upgrade over stock.
Using the et4g batts in two epics, gets about 20% more life per charge...was worth the upgrade for us.

Some of the best $ I've spent on Amazon. The 1800mAh battery and cm9 are a perfect combo.

I 100% recommend the OEM 1800 mAH battery for those who do not want to slap on one of those extended backplates.
I live in a bad service area and almost never go through a day with ~ 3 hrs screen time.
I now have 2 1800 batteries and the external charger and I'll never have to worry about battery life again.
Who wouldn't be surprised if its a sealed 1650 mah , and how would anyone really know if its 2650 ?
They should do or have done a long @ narrow 3500mah

And as a company, it would be a REALLY bad PR move to lie to the consumers. It would be very easy to test. Come on man.

Someone will dissect the phone and show all the parts on a tech blog. They do it for most flagship phones.
If you don't feel like waiting, there are 4 easy steps to verify battery capacity:
1. Acquire hammer.
2. Smash phone.
3. Read battery specs.
4. Weep.

i was looking forward to that phone, until i read that. i have 2000mah batteries for my evo, and they don't last. i have 4 of them and i use 2 a day. i was so excited that the evo lte looked awesome and had all the features i wanted, until i read that. i'll be looking elsewhere now. it really ****ing sucks that they would do this. if anything, i'll wait until somebody takes it apart to see if its soldered in and possible to swap out... i'll just throw a case over the back and keep it unscrewed if its an easy swap, but otherwise i'll pass... i'm not around chargers enough to justify not being able to swap a battery. might as well get an iphone, it'll at least last longer.

The One X has a smaller battery then the EVO 4g LTE. That should give you an idea of how well the battery life is going to be.

Most phones have button combinations that will take care of this issue. if I remember Right there is also a combination for the evo as well. No battery pull necessary.

Press and hold volume up, down, and power at he same time. It takes 5 or 6 seconds. You can even get to hboot if you press volume down after it shuts off the screen.
Sealed Battery
I just canceled my upgrade. Swapping out the battery is important to me. And what happens after a year when the battery just doesn't hold a charge very well. I'm disappointed with HTC and we have 4 EVOs in our house. I'll have to see what else is available now. Samsung???
It may only be the need to open the phone, and remove a flex cable, peal the battery out, it may or may not be soldered in, or in a clip. Its very simple, and with ICS and the S4 in the EVO LTE, I am not worried at all, but that's because I also fix phones all day lately.

You never know!! Gotta think positive man! And actually, I had Wimax on launch day in STL. But LTE will take longer for me this time around. I only used 4g a few times at the start(20mb/s in class), but never really even attempted to use it after the first few months as I didn't get great 4g at my place, though I probably haven't tried in about a year...
Hello, I was wondering if someone knows more about this than I do (I know nothing so wouldn't be hard) but as we have seen, the 4G LTE has an embedded 2000 mah battery. My current Evo 4G has the joy of the 3500mah extended battery. I was wondering the possibility of an extended battery for the 4G LTE. Right now I'm between the Nexus or the LTE and I'm not sure the awesome features make up for the lack of ginormous battery. Any ideas?

Who knows maybe Sprint drops evo4gLTE with an extended battery like the razr maxx
Maybe if you disassemble the phone, then it could be removed and a bigger one added, that is if they would make batteries in the same size and all, always a possibility.
What about a company like S**do,
Making a complete oversized replacement case to accomodate a larger battery?

I would hope that among the new accessories would be a recharging station device like the Palm Pre had. I know that Powermat is out there. Perhaps something else is in the works. I wish the Beats Audio headphones would come with the phone though.

from what iv read its a 2650mah, not 2000mah. With a non removable battery i think we will see an explosion of cases that have a built in battery like there are for the iphone. I have one for my OG evo. Its made by xpal and its called a powerskin. I got it at bestbuy.com for $59. it has a built in 1500 mah battery. along with my $1750 internal, that gives me 3250 mah and is plenty good enough for me to last 20 hours or so of moderate use.

Didn't they remove the 5 pin connector from the new Evo?
Not being able to swap batteries is a deal breaker for me. I will not be getting one myself.
The newer processor uses a lot less juice, and the battery is bigger then the original to begin with.
You don't need a bigger battery, It's already going to outlast the OG evo by a longshot. Not saying it wouldnt still be nice to be swappable. But as far as battery life is concerned, its a non issue.
Some of us go thru the battery on the EVo pretty fast. The longest I ever been able to go is about 7-8 hours of hard use. I have been in places that only thing that kept me going for another 6-7 hours was the extra battery. I can;t see this 2000ma battery lasting much more that the one I have now.

That's what I read too. Anyway, 260 is not twice what I have now with 2 batteries and I just about run thru both on some occasions. I would think faster processor will use more juice.

http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/04/htc-evo-4g-lte-preview-video/
check at about 4:10 it will tell you the battery size
excerpt: Speaking of correcting glaring flaws, the company assured us that, unlike past models (ahem, Thunderbolt), this guy should have ample runtime, courtesy of a 2,000mAh battery -- a sizable improvement over the One X's 1,800mAh juicepack
Yea I saw they changed it a little bit ago when I found the HTC page was working with more than a pic up now earlier this am it was just a photo with no specs, not worth upgrading to for me the only big difference between it and my et4g is the lte and my area won't see it til probably next year so no point in wasting the upgrade on a device that's not a drastic change HTC fumbled again IMO just like with the 3d and the design, only this time they just brought similar specs 9 months late idk what the hell they've been doing but they are falling way behind the curve these days, they burst out of the gate with the OG evo then fell flat on their face like they forgot to tie their shoes before the race
