I noticed the anker battery is available on amazon now. It's $8.99 plus free shipping. Unfortunately it doesnt have NFC. Sorry I can't post a link, I'm still a newbie. Anyone have any idea when or if the 2-pack with charger will come out?
Lol on ebay laptopmate_usa got 2 for $64 that seller might be on crack!
I'd say they'll be out shortly as I know last year it took a good two months after sgs2 for the Anker deals to start coming out for that phone. I do like anker and used two last year. I did notice though that near 30 percent it would start draining a lot faster but they were nice to have. This time I bought an OEM battery system to keep nfc even though much more expensive

Can you post the link on here? Most likely, it's not a true 3500mAh, but the improvement is huge, so you don't notice it.
Link? D:
I bought the Momax 2800 mAH from ebay for $35 and it was well worth it. It's so nice not having to carry around a charger with you now plus it comes with a cool kick stand

Hello all,
I just moved and lost my extra Sammy battery external charger....UGH. I've LOVED never having to charge my phone itself.
Just curious if anyone has tried any of the aftermarket options on ebay or elsewhere and can vouch for them. I know they may not perform quite as well as the OEM pair, but if they are comparable, it would be pretty good bang for the buck.
Thanks for any input!
From what I've seen the Yoobao 2800mAh is a good battery. It looks like the 3500mAh's aren't really 3500 and just have a different sticker. From everything I've read it looks like the Yoobao is what to go with. I'm actually going to order one today.
As far as a charger, I have the oem charger, and I have the Sprint charger (traveler charger plus) that charges it's battery pack from the wall, and then you can unplug it from the wall and carry it with you. I can generally get about half of a full charge (while using it) without it being plugged into the wall.
[edit] I think this should be in Q and A?
I'd go with Amazon.
I've tried the very cheap knockoffs (batteries and chargers). They do not perform as well as as the Samsung-branded OEM combo, which is available on Amazon in Samsung retail packaging for about $25 plus shipping.
I got a review in the Accessory section on one. Been working awesome for me for months now.

If you are looking for a battery, by far the best deal is the one in my sig for capacity/price. The best battery by far in capacity/size is the OEM battery.

Just a couple of questions about the 3500 mAh battery and the charge dock:
1. Can the 3500 mAh battery charge in that external charger (ie outside of the phone in the charger bay).
2. If you use the dock with the phone upright, does it block speaker sound coming out of it from the back, since plan on using it next to my bed and my phone is also my alarm clock.
Thanks!
The blackberry chargers are awesome.

That external charger works with all batteries including the extended batteries. The dock blocks a little of the sound, but its not completely muffled.
Meetface I was wondering where you've been! Looking for your lost charger I now see.

Haha, indeed. Well, I haven't started looking for it yet, still unpacking boxen =]
Thanks all for the replies, I'll have to decide what I want to do.
I like the Yoo Bao 2800mah. I can charge it to full, leave 3g on all day and still have half battery about 16-18 hours later.
want bang for your buck, here you go: http://www.spider-foot.com/2x-batte...ate-vibrant-i9000-galaxy-s-gsi902b-p-738.html

That's what I'm talking about. I may be picking this up if you have 3 mo good track record.
I don't care for anything that makes my phone any larger than it already is =]
Any way to bring a battery back up to spec? I was thinking about bump charging my phone repeatedly. I'm a heavy phone user and the battery doesn't last more than 3 hours anymore if that. I'm planning on giving the phone to a friend, but don't want them to have to buy a new battery right away.

Battery replacements are cheap. I replaced my bh5x with 2 bh6x extended batteries for about $25 with the new extended battery cover. Replacing with bh5x should be even cheaper.

The bh5x is $5. Just buy it. L-ion batteries are only supposed to last a year. And bump charging will only destroy it even more. Dont ever try any of those tricks they dont work and only destroy your battery.

soo currently the Newtrent battery packs are on sale and i would like some opinions about the packs. :highfive:
Not needed for 95% of people who can find a power outlet of some kind once every 24 hours.
If you're going camping for a week I guess it could work. Or if you game on your phone 12 hours a day.
Not needed for me.

I have two battery packs. One slimline Anker battery that is great for emergencies. That one has a cord built in to charge. That one is like 3200mAh
I also have a new trent 10000mah one as well. That one travels with me. Has two usb ports to charge up my N4 and N7. Pretty fast too. However doesn't hold it's charge as well as the Anker IMO, but works.

If I'm going to rely on a battery pack, I'd rather get the biggest capacity of ~13000 mah.
I've had a New Trent 11,000mAh external battery pack for well over a year now and it's been pretty solid overall. My biggest complaint is that charging the battery pack itself is a little bit of a pain in the ass because it's really picky about the connection to the wall wart, you have to turn the piece that plugs into the battery pack until it connects just right to get a good charge. I assume this could just be a minor defect in my unit. I would say check out some of the other options out there as well, I picked up a 5,000mAh external battery for $20 on Amazon as a stocking stuffer for my wife this last year.

Do you all get the battery cradle woth v20 ? Here in india they are not giving or selling .. Its hard to find it.. Instead of v20 they gave me lg g5 battery cradle as a complimentary(not from lg store) .. But it is not that useful as it could be woth v20 battery kit. Just using it as a usb torch light and power bank device.
That's quite odd. Honestly the battery life is great hence i do not see the need of buying an extra case with battery nevertheless buy it from Amazon.com or alibaba

I ordered this one:

Pretty good so far, accommodates a device with a case and a spare battery. Not a bad cradle for the price.
I have this one, and it works great - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CS0UVR6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ragFybB0Z6STF
That thing and a spare battery, and I always have over 100% battery available. Whole reason I wanted this phone over a Samsung ?
Edit: Holy crap, forget mine, I want the one in the preceding post - cheaper AND it'll charge the spare battery at the same time!? I am missing out!

Does this charge a spare battery? Why is it so much more expensive than the one I bought for less features? It IS slicker looking but you can't charge a spare battery.
Nope, it'll take my phone with its case on, but it does not charge a spare battery. It was a gift, so I'm not complaining, but yours looks much better to me.
