Phone Arena Reviews The Note LTE - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

A pretty good review of AT&Ts Samsung Galaxy Note LTE although I disagree with som small points and would give it a 9 here you go look for yourself http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-LTE-Review_id2962 let me know what you think by posting here

Good review. Only wish they would cover battery life. Simply saying "I got through 2 days of light usage, so it should make it through a full day" doesn't mean much. Sadly though most reviews never cover battery life in depth w/ measurable tests
Thank god for Anandtech who does actually test the battery life...

4% after 6 hours of use. Now that sounds like something that would happen to me.

[Q] Any word on an extended battery yet?

I've looked, but can't really find one. Do any of you all know when or if an extended battery will be available? I had one on my original Evo but now I'm just lost. =]]
I think the battery life is way better than the Evo 4g. It comes with a 1730mah battery so it's pretty good. I've been running it all day just about the same as my old 4g and the battery life feels about double what I would of got.
coming soon.

I never go for the cheap ebay batts.
Might take more time since constructing a new back for this phone seems like alot more work with it wrapping around the sides and buttons being included

Oh great, another rip-off overrated seidio battery. Whats this one really going to be? 1680mAh? When are people going to learn you cannot cram more mAh into the same form factor. If it was possible, HTC would do it with the stock battery. The only way to get more mAh is with more size. No offense to tide88, I'm just really fed up with this company and their lies.

It's not double for me, but it's about 10% more. So right as it should be. I got about 24-26 hours with the Evo 4g, I'm getting about 28-30 with the 3d.

That one is not the same size as the original, it's larger and requires a special cover.
However, this one is supposed to be larger and sill fit in under the original door http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi19hev3d.htm
However, unless it's a different type of battery (like a Li-Po), it's not physically possible to get more Ah out of the same area.
different cells can give a little more power.
and yes, the super size - does require a different back, had it for my evo 4g, and i could listen to pandora radio all day at work, for 8 hrs, and still be 50% battery after.
i cant wait for it to come out, yes it will be big, but last all day.

2800mAh slim battery

http://www.amazon.com/2800mAh-Repla...id=1353378279&sr=1-20&keywords=evo+3d+battery
This couldn't possibly be real, could it? the highest battery capacity ive seen that is slim for the e3d is 1900, and from 1900mah to 2800mah is quite a jump. Seems like a blatant lie to me, so i would stay away

It's the "Business Edition" so it must be real.
lol at the sarcasm.
Bottomline: It will be crap, don't get it.
I'm also looking for a new battery for my 3D as the phone drains so quickly I am afraid to use it extraneously when I won't be near a charging source.
What you guys say is the best slim battery out there now?
I took a look at the Anker - http://www.amazon.com/1900mAh-Batteries-Sensation-Anker-Multi-purpose/dp/B005B3RFTU/ref=pd_cp_cps_0
And also the EC - http://www.amazon.com/EC-TECHNOLOGY...urpose/dp/B007PZBBZQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Both get good reviews but the EC is half the cost. As I don't know how much longer I will actually have this phone I think I will go with the cheaper one.

Zerolemon

Am i the only one waiting on this battery to finally drop? Any news or update could be posted here cause i'd like to know

Another delay unfortunately. I was anticipating it, but now in limbo
---------- Post added at 02:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 AM ----------
No new ETA either
Same with Anker.. both delayed
I don't buy a phone now unless it has a zerolemon or like battery. Not only do I like the extra capacity I like the added thickness they add.
ZeroLemon has really screwed up this release it's a shame.
Just an fyi if you hadn't seen already, they will be available on the 30th. I too am counting the days. After having it on my note 2, I cannot live without it.

It's the 4 holes at the bottom on the phone. I suspect there's a channel from the speaker to those four holes. A la the the mophie juice packs.
Anyone know if this will be in white too? And please post impressions if you order it

I'd really like to hear from somebody on XDA on their impressions of the battery and case vs reading brain dead reviews from people who don't know what's going on. I've had zero lemon for all my devices and I can't see how this battery and case could be much different than lets say on my Note 2. I've read it's terrible quality and some received it dead on arrival. Lol. Either that or it arrived with no charge and they didn't let it charge up long enough. :laugh:

The only problem with these cases is NFC and wireless charging can no longer be used.

Mine arrived dead on arrival, battery with a question mark which is a dead battery. Not dead as in not charged, but a completely defective product. I have contacted zerolemon for a replacement.

Had my zero lemon for a little over a day, love it so far the added thickness and case is durable... Does make phone heavier but the battery boost is worth it

Extended battery

Does anyone on here use the 5300mah extended battery for our phones? Was curious how much bigger it made it feel, how hot it got, yada yada. A pic of it in compared to stock would be splendid also! also if anyone has tried the "extended slim" battery that's supposed to fit with existing back (weighing my options) I love how this phone feels in my pocket and in my hands idk if I want something that's gonna make it a lot thicker. Thanks again guys. I love this forum lol.

---edit--- nvm. I finally found that thread on the 5300. I tried for an hour earlier lol. But about that extended slim, its like 3000mAh, is that even worth it? That 5300 is HUGE

Hi There,
I have the 5400mah from amazon, $9.99 with plastic door. Battery works good and door is not bad but will not last over time. I also have two 2700 mah which where $9-13 from amazon and came with wall mount charger they work awesome. I have had no issues with either battery types and love them all. I tripped over my charging cable while plugged in the phone and does not work. I am tied up at the moment, about to make a rom help thread haha...when i get time today or tomorrow i will post pics and answer further questions along with details and links. And i use my note for everything, games reading and video all day long, truly is my phablet.
The 2700's fit as if stock, use stock door.

Awesome thanks! I like my note just wish it had battery life like the note 2. I might invest in one of the 3000 mah battery. They have decent reviews.

Are you saying there's a 3000 mah batt for this phone? Link please?
Otherwise I used to have the extended 5300mah. was just too big for my liking. Sold it on ebay and got the RAV 2750. But interested in the 3000 mah you mentioned, thanx in advance.

Batteries with bigger capacity?

Are there any third party batteries that you can buy that will improve the battery life without need to get a new case?
I've seen some 3800mAh ones on eBay but I don't know if they will offer much improvement, if any.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mbuynow-3...442079?hash=item280c24fb5f:g:zpMAAOSwnGJWS-17
Dont even thought!!!!!!
dont use 3 rd custom batteries tgey are suck and by time your lg g3 will say invailed battery and the device will power on only if you but tge original battery and you wont able to use any other batteries.
i have used power bear battery and i had that issue and then i boaght zerolemon for 35$ by sale and it is pretty good no issues and i reached 10 hours (SOT) screen on time but it add too much thickness to my device
have a nuce day
Original batteries are best. Best for capacity, long life and safe.
Others maybe 4000-5000 mah but can not be bigger than the original and may be dangerous, I guarantee it. Original batteries are about 15$ at Aliexpress

Hi @kdr3120,
Problem is there are so many fakes all looking alike. Which seller at Aliexpress did you buy from that actually delivered GENUINE LG G3 batteries? Mind posting the link?
I got one from Lazada which looked exactly like the real thing but it was obviously fake cos the battery life sucked.
