so as many may agree with me on this, the Seidio 4000 mAh battery cover is just plain disgusting, it kind of reminds me of Darth Vader actually... anyways, the battery by Seidio is better than Mugen's (4000 vs 3600 mAh) so my question is, is Seidio's battery to thick to fit Mugen's slightly better looking battery door or would it fit ok? I dont have the battery here to confirm or deny this but maybe some1 dat knows the dimensions of both the battery and the door can reply, thnx in advance

You can get the whole housing off ebay, but at about 30-40$
Anybody knows...?
Does a Star161 battery fit on a Qtek8500?
The Qtek8500 standard has the Star160 battery, which is thinner.
On Ebay.com you can buy a Star161 battery including battery cover (so the thicker one) and it looks like it'll fit instead of the Star160. Would be good, because a lot of peolpe can switch to 1100mAh instead of 750mAh...
Anyone ever tested it?
P.S.: in some days I've got a Cingular 3125 (which has the slightly thicker battery) next to my Qtek 8500, so I'll let you guys (and girls) know!
I'm looking for a slim battery door cover also.
Fits!

Answer: YES, it fits! So for all Qtek8500 users: just buy a Star161 1100mAh with slightly thicker battery cover and have more battery power!
hey guys,
I was looking around to find a new battery. I have the seidio 2600mAh battery, but i want another battery that fits in the standard case. What is the biggest size battery that fits? I've heard that around a 1700mAh? what would be a good brand?
Thanks
I'm pretty sure the Galaxy SIII will have decent battery life and when ROMs and kernels come around it'll be even better. The S3 having a 2100mah battery, do you guys think it's possible for 3rd parties accessories maker to do like a 2500 Mah battery like the note? Or will it be too big and add bulk to the phone with an bigger back cover?
There will definitely be extended batteries, but any that add significantly to the capacity will have their own rear casing and add some bulk. Mugen often make batteries the same size as the originals with a slight edge in capacity, but I doubt they'd get it to 2500mA.
Im sure there will at some point be extended batteries available in much higher capacities with their own back covers. This might actually be beneficial for those worried about getting scratched camera lenses.

Nfc antenna is in the battery so Kepler that in mind when looking for a replacement
Extended batteries on eBay
I found some extended batteries for sale on eBay. All of them seem to ship from China. Some are 2300 and 2500 mAh and appear that they fit using the standard back cover. Other larger batteries come with a new back cover making the phone thicker. The downside of both options is that none of the extended batteries seem to include NFC support. It's a shame that the phone's NFC feature was built into the battery.
Extended Battery and Cover
I think what you are looking for is the power case from droidax. They have a new one that fits the GS3 and has 2300 mAh battery inside. That doubles the battery capacity.

Waiting on the full line from Seidio myself. They said they are working on an extended battery but currently have no ETA. I usually buy the whole suite; Comes with a battery, back cover, 3 layers of casing and a holster. My opinion is that practicality is more important than how thin and light the phone is. My EVO 4g lasted a week with Seidio's extended battery. Hope to get the same with the SGS3.
I see this time and time again, but also I guess this is why there is a market for fake batteries.
Think of a battery as a fuel tank, you want to run the motor for longer? you need a bigger tank. Any battery that claims to have a larger capacity yet maintain the same physical size is either utilising battery technology no one else knows about or its too good to be true.

You can get a 2300mAh battery that gives like 10% extra capacity or a huge 4600mAh battery (2.2 times more capacity). Second one comes with back door because of bulk and adds like 11mm to the phone.
Found this video for the above mentioned battery.
Im wondering if the mugen battery door with fit with the Hyperion 5000mAh Extended Battery... I just bought the door from amazon. hoping it will fit. Just wondering if anyone has done the same and it worked.. thanks..

well to answer my own question,, the hyperion battery is too tall for the mugen battery door.. lol
MUGEN 3600 mah extended batter is now available in ebay
BUT ITS TOO EXPENSIVE AND BULKY!

I wonder if slim power bank is better solution.

I rather buy that 2500 mah battery kit than this brick
Lol. It is fairly ugly looking.
I just use a spare battery which is
3720 Mah .
Odd though- because two Alpha Batteries are nowhere near as thick as this thing.
Is there a small piece of Pizza in there or a money clip maybe ?
If it could do wireless charging, it would sell so much more.
