I bought 2 Hyperion batteries 8months ago for 25$ that they claimed to be 2600mAh however I always doubted that it was true because it never lasted as long as my stock oem battery. Today one battery broke and I decided to remove the sticker and found out that it was 1750mAh. Don't buy this ****!

I bought the 5000 mah Hyperion battery, I wonder if it's close to advertised specs. It lasts a rediculously long time, I do know that much.

So does anyone have any more information about this battery like reviews or MaH capacity.
It's probably 3500. Best buy has two reviews that are positive. Please tell us if and where we can get these for that price. I have cash ready to buy one of these.

Hell, that is pretty good for the price Even of its only the 3400mah version from seidio! I'm sure the $75 4000 MaH from siedio isn't really 4000, probably around 3500 to 3700.

I happened to walk into Verizon today and got the OEM extended batter for $32 after taxes! I was taking my girlfriend to look at phones again and asked the rep if they had any in, he said yes, as a matter of fact we have a special going right now for them! Couldn't pass it up!
And, FYI I hate extended batteries, but this phone is a monster and we all know it needs the power! I am very pleased! I would suggest everyone try if they don't already have one!
Yep, I picked one up today also. They're 50% off.

I had no idea they were on sale, the rep handed it off to another rep and after my Military discount told me a different price. I told him the first dude said it was $29, he went to check and sure enough. Good thing the first guy mentioned it, otherwise I would probably have paid full price.

I picked it up earlier around 2pm I put it in the phone to drain it(45% upon installing), and even with 4G outtage and LTE antenna on I am still at 12%... lol. It is now 11:11.
Edit: Another thing I like, the antenna contacts are metal rather than that paper like crap in the stock back. Also, this battery doesn't seem to get as hot.
Great news. I'll have to buy online now. Thanks

I would think this goes in the accessories sub forum. Just saying. And I got my battery around $30 when I picked up my phone on Nov 18. Definitely gives the phone a more solid feel. They sell cases that fit with the extended battery. And a holster also.
This wasn't an accessory discussion, this was a heads up to folks that they are on sale if they hadn't already known. Notice the broad general discussion? Weren't you threatening to block me? lol, get out of my thread troll.

They don't stack the discounts. You get the better of the 2 offers. I get an accessory discount too, but they couldn't apply it.
you can get just the battery for $15 from htcpedia. i got one case/battery and an extra battery so it's great
I know there's tons of threads about the best replacement batteries and the best extended batteries, but I'm looking for OEM from Samsung, NFC capable batteries. I'm well aware that they won't be as cheap as the high-capacity ones, but I seem to have misplaced my OEM battery while swapping it out for my extended one.
I don't really want to trust Ebay, unless they're a 100% valid seller carrying OEM batteries which won't boot-loop.
Thanks.

You can't be much more guaranteed than straight from Samsung.

Well, I'm sure it'll "work" but it'll work just like all the other i9100 batteries work. Boot-Looping and no "NFC" label.
Can someone explain to me what the Label actually means? Is the NFC chip inside the battery, or does the battery just "allow" the waves to pass through it without any interference? If the latter, will non-oem batteries cause interference?
Also, I went ahead and bought theses:

I'll let you guys know if they're OEM or not...

I got this one with charger which doubles as stand (only for phone without case) for $30 a couple months ago. I can confirm that is same as stock (OEM with NFC).

Ok, thanks for that information.
I just got a reply from the seller. Here's what I asked, and the reply:
"Is this product: http://www.all4cellular.com/samsung-eb-l1a2gba-battery.html An OEM battery? As in, it was made by Samsung in Korea, allows USB charging, does not Boot-Loop, and is NFC capable?"
Answer:
"
Yes its an OEM Battery manufactured by Samsung in Korea, does support USB charger, doesnt Boot Loop and depending on your cellular device is compatible with Near Field Communication."
Anyone tried this extended battery on AT&T Galaxy Note?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/5200mAh-Ext...ccessories&hash=item3cc439f8de#ht_1046wt_1396
Thanks
It's probably closer to 3800 to 4000mah. The Chinese variants always lie to sell some batts unless it's Seido or Mugen who are trusted.
I am getting to the point where i am going to buy one. I am going to wait until my 30 days is up then buy an extended battery. Probably a cheap one like that first. I can't justify $100 for a Mugen one when it comes out, so this may work.

However with Mugen you get a 1 year warranty and guaranteed quality battery rated at 5000+ mah vs these knock offs that may wear off quicker and most likely no warranty.
You get what you pay for
I 100% agree going with Mugen is the smarter move. If I can take the chance and spend $15 on a knockoff and get lucky that it works well it is worth it seeing how the real deal is like 8 times more expensive.
Anyways most people don't keep there phones for more than 2 years anymore so longevity isn't always the biggest selling point.

Mugen does have a picture if the International version don't they? I know I have seen it it has a quicksand with it. From the pictures I have seen it looks to more than double the thickness of the phone.

Personally, I'd stay from any unbranded batteries from that region. They work fine for awhile after the return period and then they go bad.

Is it the Att 1717 version.I'll also offer you $260 for it,if you like to sell it still.Let me know.
I almost bought one off a guy on Craigslist for $210 but he wanted me to Western Union the money to him because he lived a state over and he refused paypal so that signaled to me it was probably a scam.
I ran mine on Craigslist this morning..A White one..
with 2 extended batteries w/backs for 250$
I was besieged with txts and emails and calls
4 hours later I decided to pull the ad..
I chickened out when i realized that Id actually have to sell....
and what would I replace it with??
The Note 2? that would be the only one worthy..
And on Amazon 699....Negri...720.....something..
No used AT&T Note 2 on CL in my town.
So Ide have to pay close to 450 plus what I get for my i717 to get a Note 2
That's alot of jack for a few up-grades including .2 inches in screen size...
This Note 1 is just too dammn good right now to shell out alot of bucks to get something comparable..
BUt on the other hand... prices will go down quick, that's for sure..Especially if a Note 3 comes on the stage...
good luck
Up here in Canada you can't buy an i717 (One of the only two available for us) for under $400.
Any one under that is simply garbage, or has been destroyed.
I saw someone sell one with a smashed screen for $350.
I haven't heard a single thing on mine. Put it up for 350

Edmonton doesn't represent all of Canada. In Vancouver, Note 1 goes for 250-350 depending on the condition. There are some S3's and Optimus G for 350-400. Note 2 are about 500.
As much as I love my Note 1, the resale value (250-300) is pretty bad.
I sold my Note (carbon blue, AT&T locked) and otterbox commuter case on eBay for $290. Pretty much what all of them seem to be going for these days. Had to get rid of it because I got a Nexus 4 (which I love btw).
I wonder what i could get for mine? Unlocked "grandfathered in" good conditon with extended 5400mah battery...quote lol

A Prestine condition i717 Note is worth anywhere from $250-275. That's street price. I bought mine on release date Feb 19th 2012 (I believe). Lots of people have jumped ship but I have no problem waiting for the Note 3. Besides the lack of RAM and the processor a little dated, the Note is perfectly fine and will get me through a couple months til Note 3. However, some people want and need the latest and greatest which is understandable.
