[Q] SGS3 extended battery without bulk - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I am using an international version of SGS3, my battery normally last me for about 10 hours only which is very frustrating. Its a great but lack of battery life. Is there any extended batteries out there that doesn't add bulk to the phone?
PS: I do not want an extended battery case =)
Cheers.

Anyone?

Nope, the biggest you can get without a new case is 2200.

Naaaah. I suggest you buy another battery. I dont think an additional 100mah will do any good..

Everything is the same with the i9220 & i717 except the radio right?
sent from places you don't want to go...
I think the i9220 is the international version.
So different back plate, no nfc and different processor as well.
But the dimensions should be the same.
Hoping this case snaps over top the i717.
I believe the i9220 is the UK version of the note? Same dimensions, but you never know...
The exterior dimensions are the same. I can see some compromises were made to the design, because of the Spen. I'd be a little concerned about the smallish charger. They should have designed it with the charging port integrated to the case like many iPhones have. This would have given it a more finished, put together look. Still awesome to see so many options for cases, extended batteries and charging out there!

My reasons for getting this particular extended battery case is:
1) didn't make the Note any longer
2) has a built in kickstand
3) option for charging another device that takes micro USB charger
4) easiest on/off case I've seen.
5) because it says "Galaxy Note" on the kickstand
I will order this in a couple days.

Curious to see how it does. If it's at least as good as another standard battery it'd be worth it.
I bought a similar one from Chinavasion. And it was also an international version. It fit perfectly on my at&t note.

What screen on time are you seeing?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Oh its different cause since it actually counts as charging the battery it doesn't record that. See I can do 5 hours on my stock battery alone and I know for a fact that I can double it with the battery case. Its a battery case so it keeps my battery at 100 for about 6 hours and then my stock battery takes over. Do you understand what i mean?

[Q] Extended batteries

So I've been using a couple of HTC extended batteries (2750 mah) and have been pleased with them but I am curious about the aftermarket 3500mah batteries all over amazon and ebay. Are they worth buying?
While were at it. What is the deal with people using rezound batteries, where do they fall in comparison with the rest?

I bought a 3200 but it did not make a real difference. It will probably have to be a stock battery or extended with cover.

You are not going to get any more powerful battery than the oem battery that will fit the oem back. That is a fact. Anything labeled with a higher rating is purely a sales gimmick. Charge your phone more, purchase extra batteries, or go with the extended battery.

Not sure but looks like the same size as stock but I wouldn't be surprise if its another scam, just relabeled. Either buy an extended with cover or just carry an extra battery.

I use Anker 2700mAh Li-ion Batteries and in my opinion its better than the oem battery and for $25.99 for two batteries with charger you cant go wrong.
I cant post links but
Amazon and Ebay have them.
Bought an S4 for my girlfriend for her upgrade. I just ordered one of these so I can play around with her Note when I get bored with my S3.

I just got 5200 mAh extended battery with custom cover for $8.95 +s&h came out to a little over $13.
The reviews all said cover wouldn't stay on, so I also ordered a white shell cover for about same price.
It holds it all together. It is bigger but it's better than carrying my external battery pack charger all the time. (I'm a hardcore Ingress player)
Can you post pix so we can see, I personally have been thinking about getting an extended battery myself but its the custom back that I worry about plus I would miss my flip cover
