I guess a lot of people have tried getting an extended battery for their Evo3D. Which one is the best you have tried, and what kind of uptime did you get it from it?
Did it fit the original cover, and can you recommend the replacement cover?

Expansys Extended battery for me has been awesome, 2 days + normal use, 4 days if i dont use it much!!!
Well, how extended are these? ;D
look it up! 3400 mah
If you want it to fit under your stock battery cover, go with Anker or Chichitec. Both are listed as 1900mah and are definitely better than stock. I get around 20 hours Up time and 5 hours Awake with the Anker batteries. 2 batteries and an external charger for around $30 shipped for either brand, and both ship from California I believe (Anker for sure). For reference, I get around 14 hours Up and 3.5 hours Awake with stock HTC battery. Also, the Anker batteries are only listed for the Sensation, but both use the same battery. Not sure why Anker doesn't list them for the Evo 3D as well, I'm sure they would sell quite a few more if they did....

We got 2 Anker batteries for our E3Ds a little over a month ago and am very satisfied. Lasts longer than stock. You can buy 1-battery, 1-charger+1 battery or 1-charger+ 2 batteries. Fast shipping also.

Yep I have two CHICHITEC batteries they work great and last just as long as the stock battery if not longer.
Seidio 4000 mah by far the best hands down. 3G/4G used entire time, many calls, games, YouTube videos, lots of e-mail and gps

All these batteries + G1 Dock with 2nd slot battery charger = WIN.
So. Many. Batteries.
Just got my other two in from ebay at $4 a pop. They were supposed to be OEM replacements but to my suprise, one of them says "1300mAh Replacement Battery For HTC G1". The other looks like a replica of an OEM battery but you can tell its not OEM. For $8 for both though, who really cares? lol, here's some pics of all my batteries.

Seidio 2600mAh With Extended Back Door $50
Andida "1600mAh" Extended Batteries (2) They are $10 each but i got em $10 for both
And of course, my stock OEM pos bloated HTC battery but you all know what that looks like.
Think i got enough Juice?
Impressive. I also have a 'defective' andida that I charge with an external charger. I have one of those white label batteries that came with one of my external chargers. It's a good emergency battery, but inferior to the OEM. I have a Seido 1400 that works pretty well. The Seido and the Andida seem to last about the same time in the phone. I still use the OEM even though it started bulging a bit. I hope that doesn't mean it's about to explode.
Depending on usage, I can rotate out all four batteries in a single day. The new radio has improved battery life, though.
How do they perform?

Yea, i was gonna spring for the Seidio 1400 but for the price, i just spent a couple more dollars and got the 2600 Extended at the time. My OEM battery is buldgy as a mofo too, that sh!t scares me sometimes lol. It dies so quick, its ridiculous.

There is no words for the Seidio 2600, that thing is a beast. 3 days easy with everything on. The Andidas last about a day and a half with heavy usage and some things turned off. The others i havent tested yet and the OEM is garbage, lasts about 4 hours max with LIGHT usage.
I have no plans on making my G1 a super brick...yet.
Hey do you have a link for the andida battery, I cant find'em anywhere .

Unforunately, he stopped selling them after the whole fiasco he went through with getting a bad batch and sending it out to everyone then having to replace them all...he just called it quits. =\
If you wanna see exactly what im talking about, just read up on the Andida 1600mAh Battery thread, its like 50 pages long from various XDA members including myself waiting months and months and months for a working $10 extended battery...it was crazy.
On another note though, i've heard there are other 1600mAh extended batteries on ebay so just do a search and they should come up. I think i remember one guy telling me about "Ecell" extended batteries? Give it a go and let us know how it goes.
I just got the 2650mah rated extended battery. Will post a review once it goes through a few cycles.

Awesome, thanks for doing the review. I've been on the fence about ordering this batt.
Hello where did you buy and how much?
You can get it at mugen power website. So far it had been disappointing (stock performs better) however let's see after a few cycles.

extended for an extra 150mah? not worth it...
Where is the review
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Aftermarket batteries are crap. OEM's spend millions on battery research. Aftermarket battery companies spend a fraction of that, hence why their batteries blow chunks. Don't waste your money.
Yeah on second thought 2650mah is only like a 6% increase in battery life?
I'll have to agree. Not enough return for the price. I'm waiting to see if seidio comes out with 5,000 mAh extended like I keep hearing about
seidio has there battery available now.

have you tested it?, any comments?
thanks
I finished testing it and will post a full review along with pictures (for proof?) later tonight. Currently at work so unable to do so.
But for anyone looking to buy, I say don't waste your money. The extra minutes isn't worth the $45-50... I am returning it and buying another stock for $25.
Also I apologize for the delay for the review
If you want extended battery life, buy the Anker.
Anyone purchased any of the 2800 may batteries off eBay?
Curious if they really are more power or its just another lie.
Is there a good aftermatket extended battery out there?

So having a bigger battery is nice right? I mean all that extra juice comes in handy especially with that nice big note screen. However the thing looks a bit funny and isn't well protected anymore. Is there a case that replaces the back cover? The batteries are rather cheap(I got scammed for 40 bucks for my 5200) there must be something out there....
Your best bet is to just buy a spare OEM battery and charging dock. Keep it slim and most likely 2 OEM batteries will last longer then a 5200. The spare is real thin, I keep mine in my wallet. Usually only need it for trips and really late nights partying.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
This is honestly your best bet at this moment. I'm ordering mine tomorrow after my pay clears. I also have a 5000mah battery but I figure this would help me along also.

I was hesitant to buy the extended battery, however at less than $9 shipped, I took the chance. I'm very satisfied! Sure, the device is bigger now, but I can go the whole day while on LTE and not worry about swapping the battery out or forgetting the extra battery, etc. I purchased an aluminum bumper to aid in protection for the sides. I got over 6hrs screen on time yesterday on the FIRST day of using the battery. All syncs on, all location services (except GPS) on always, etc. Basically, I wasn't trying to save battery at all.

I have an extended battery and Hyperion case its not that bad after this I don't think I could go back to the regular battery I stream Pandora to my Bluetooth speaker and play Netflix heavy. I can make it through 8 hours now its well worth it for me!
I'm testing both these extended batterys to see which ones better.

Brand of the battery is eForCity (or at least the peeps selling it). So it doesn't appear to be an 'official' HTC battery. Could you possibly take the 'official' label off your thread title?
For $7.81 I HIGHLY doubt it's a true 2000mah battery. (feel free to try one and report back though :good
Couldn't find ANY official extended battery for the EVO 3D from Sprint or HTC, and the picture is clearly picturing an NON OEM and NON name brand battery. so no, do not buy this thinking it will be 2000MAH, you will have better luck buying a regular OEM HTC battery.
Newegg does sell official OEM extended batteries for EVO 4G, bought it for my bro and it was extremely impressive. 10 bucks for twice the battery life... wish it were that easy for my EVO 3D

The original (WiMax) Evo 4G does not have the same size battery as the 3D. I don't know about the new, (LTE) Evo though.
How is this "official" when it's clearly not an OEM battery and is even listed in the details as "AFTERMARKET"???
Comments Withdrawn
Since we are talking batteries I am looking at getting a extra battery. What does everyone recommend that would fit with the stock case? I am not looking for extra bulk just a nice replacement on the cheap if possible.
http://www.amazon.com/Anker®1900mAh...e=UTF8&qid=1341947928&sr=1-78&keywords=evo+3d
Anker is the only cheap brand name i trust at the moment, bought two TMO SGS2 Batteries for my girl and they are slightly better than stock, (2200mah VS 1800mah) as promised by Anker, cost me 20 bucks for both. so i would expect this 1900mah Battery to do slightly better, and then u have two batteries .. try to get yourself a independent battery changer, there like 5 bucks at most on Ebay. or just buy this bundle.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005B3RFTU
the charger is great, but also a little cumbersome (since its adjustable rather than fixed for one size), its great because u can charge virtually any cellphone battery with it... including anyones you know.... except if they own an iPHONE lmao
6500mAh extended battery is released.
The backdoor has a kickstand to satisfy lots of requests to include it based on feedback for the previous models.

Thanks for the opportunity to make my 4th. This is my second week on this forum, and I'm mostly reading, not posting. When I feel that I can contribute, I do. I've used smartphones for 10 yeras since E90 and used many different extended battery brands, so yeah, I stand by what I say.
I've used the Mugen Extended battery on both the original Note and the Note 2. I didn't have a problem with either. Great quality and great battery life. True the price is steep but it's a good product. If the back cover of the Note 3 extended battery was like the leather effect of the standard cover, I'd be more inclined to get it

Do they sell the back separately? There is no reason to think that the battery is better than an Anker, but the back definitely is.
How did you think they are able to charge that much?

Yes, we do, and we exchange back doors for the ordered batteries free of charge.
I wouldn't mind having an extended battery although I don't really need one. Only thing really keeping me from getting something like this is the fact that there isn't any cases that this would be compatible with and I have to have some kind of protection on my device.
