Designed to provide maximum mobile freedom, Mugen Power 4700mAh (milliamp hour) Lithium-Polymer battery case extends the life of the Verizon HTC Droid DNA by 3 times delivering enough power to recharge the stock 2020mAh battery twice after it is depleted. This impressive battery performance allows consumers, especially those who are often on the move, to use the device longer. The new battery is fully compatible and fits well on to Verizon HTC Droid DNA.

Definitely want one of these but 90-100$ is a bit steep imo.
Looks good but I wouldn't pay that much fir a case.

It fugly as all get out too! At least the Mophie packs for Iphone5 are sleek and good looking. They do add alot of bulk but they're not ugly. I will say this though, these are putting out 4700 mAh while the mophies for iphone are only like 1200mAh or so and those sell for $100. So by that notion these aren't a bad deal.
I don't think it looks that bad, if it were in the $40-50 range I'd totally grab one.
If they were cheap I'd get one to travel with but not for everyday use

It has to be one hour of screen life lol. I've finally gotten my phone to only use 1-2% of it's battery while its on stand by. However it doesnt matter how long I've had the phone on or anything if I go to 2 hours of screen on time my phone is sitting around 50% +/- a few depending on some other factors. So that's the only conceivable way for me to see him doing it.
Missed the comment above about Mophie and you're 100% right. This is a great deal compared to their offerings for the ONE or the S3. 100$ here gets you a lot more juice.
Thanks you very much news, I think HTC phone's battery accessories is still very good, lifespan can reach 10 hours of the time it brought me a lot of convenience and benefits, I do not have to worry about no electricity and phone things affect me

It does look good, and I am wondering the same thing. I can't find any reviews however, probably because the website says 'Ships on September 18, 2013', suggesting it isn't yet available.

A one year warranty sounds pretty darn good. I can't bring myself to spend $90 though, and no way $100 for the brick unless I was traveling. Tempted by the extra 3000 and doesn't look THAT bad. Hell this thing barely fits in my pocket as is, what's an extra few mm going to really matter? Price point on mugen products are notoriously high and stay there. I don't see this being any cheaper. I may just pull the trigger on this but have to sleep on it a few days first. Not an impulse shopper by any means.
I'll pick one up in the next week or two, it's ideal for my purposes, especially since I bought a GoPro Hero 3 Black which I control from my phone using Wi-Fi. The extra power will be very useful.

Hey! Mugen Power has a OEM sized extended battery for AT&T SGS2
1800mAh man
Also they have a super-big one: 3200mAh
The actual answer is no.

alice0223 said:
Yes. There is a very reliable one where I bought several times from them.
mugen-power-batteries.com
Normally for one model they have the standard size with extend capacity and another super size with 2-3 times capacity of the standard one. I have tried HTC Sensation's extended battery, works great on my HTC.
Hope you can find what you need. Besides, they ship to all over the world for free!

The HTC Sensation is a special case because it shares batteries with the Evo 3D, but other phones either you're buying something with the same capacity as the stock battery, or less.
If OEMs could make a battery with more capacity in the same space, we have to ask ourselves, why wouldn't they do it?
Exactly... The amount of money they spend on the battery technology alone is crazy. In the old days before smart phones motorola lived and bashed on good battery life... It was the selling point for phones... Until smart phones. But in my opinion it's even more important
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA App
Its difficult to quantify battery life as its so subjective to actual use/ user habits.
That said, battery technology is pretty good and consistent. You can only get so much "juice" in a battery given its size.
samsung made a 2000 mAh for the euro galaxy s 2, it ads just a little bit of thickness
I would agree with the claims that battery life is nearly impossible to extend but I personally really noticed how much battery life went up with my Inspire when I tried going back to the OEM battery with my normal daily use I'd do with the extended battery. It was incredible what a difference a few hundred mAh make
Sent from my Samsung GT-I9100
It'd be hella nice to get a 2000 mAh battery with NFC support for less than $40.
I'm thinking of purchasing a Rezound on Ebay, I currently have a droid Inc2. However, I would like to get the Rezound because its 4g and s-off. I can get one for like $250 or so and my upgrade isn't up for another year. Opinions would be much appreciated.

honestly on this phone I don't notice much of a difference on 3g vs 4g for battery life. I don't know why that is, maybe it has something to do with the size of the antennae running through the back cover.
Totally worth it. Extended battery is a must though if you want to use 4g for more than 5 minutes. With extended battery, you can go all day with Pandora on 4g and still have a good 30% or so left.

the only way you will get 2 days use on the rezound is too buy an extended battery. the phone is great but the battery life is not soo much.
Hello guys. As many of you already know the stock battery which comes with the rezound dies pretty quickly through a decent amount of use in a day. I have been looking for some extended batteries and have come across brands such as Laza zCell, otterbox and Hyperion. What do you guys suggest? Should I just stick with the extended battery provided by HTC?
Thank you in advance.

When it comes to the ReZound STICK WITH THE OEM HTC EXTENDED BATTERY no matter how many more hours they say it will last. Cause it might for the first week then the cells are going to weaken but my extended form my rezound is great and i've had it for almost a month now. I get about 20 hours with 4g on all day no wifi nor 3g and bluetooth is on
Honestly, my HTC battery works best by far. And once you get a replacement back for the phone thunderbolt extended batteries are the same part number and cheap as dirt. Like 3 or 4 bucks a battery.

After the Rezound I'm officially done with HTC for good, if it want for the developer community we (luckily) have I would have bought a GNEX off contract. It's not just the Rezz either, from the thunderbolt to the One X and S HTC is consistently lagging behind. Finally and most importantly they diffuse to keep yo with android as a whole, were the years into on screen nav keys and HTC still continues to use causative buttons ( so much more screen room, still on that ugly ass green color when the blue is much more inviting it also clashes with Google apps. It looks like Motorola and sammy have finally stepped it up so that's where I am going.

If it's true that a VZW version will drop as the DNA+ in a couple of months, that will be my next phone. Identical specs to the One and it's supposed to have microSd card support as well. Basically, what the DNA should have been in the first place.

No way. Not doing the ril stuff anymore. Really delays Rom development.
Rezound, s-off, loving it.
Pretty tempted to go with Sammy for the next phone too..ive done the Moto/LG/HTC experiences..guessing its about time for me to join the sheep of the Android world and get a Galaxy (unless the rumored Moto X phone is really something beastly). Hope the SGS4 won't disappoint, not a fan of their design and build quality but hard to be disappointed with their hardware and software. I'll probably still be on the Rez for a bit longer anyway though..VZW will probably lag way behind again in releasing the SGS4, and I hate paying full upgrade pricing when I can wait 2 or 3 months and have the price halved or even better. Still love the Rez in its own right. I never had any real complaints about the Rez (and yes, especially because of the amazing devs we have here) but I hope my next phone is 1. Lighter (it's about the same weight as my old Droid 2 for god's sake) 2. is considerably better on battery life. Camera/reception/screen etc. I think have always been fantastic on this device.
I am VERY curious though to see a battery test on the HTC One..battery seems like it's fairly decent in capacity, but I wonder how much more (if even) that new cpu will get out of it.

I'm not understanding this. HTC is a failing company because they are failing the consumers that were once loyal. My first phone was the DINC and I love that thing, I still love my Rezound as well it's a great phone and I got so much more than with the GNEX and RZR. HTC even began unlocking boot loaders for those who wanted I was really high on my HTC horse but the more and more I hear about the update problems HTC is having while others are moving forward clearly shows that buying a new HTC device is a gamble. I mean the RAZR is getting OFFICIAL JB. Another thing to consider the incredible 4g came out after the Rezound with worse specs and that was it until the DNA came out? They move a step forward them two steps back it makes no sense. I will say however Motorola is also guilty of this in Some ways with the max line just like HTC + lines. Samsung is winning the battle because sadly they are just ding it properly. I hope I see HTC make strides over the year because I will be leaving Verizon sooner rather than later. Pretty sure I'm going to switch to T-MO everything unlimited plan no contacts or carrier chains sounds amazing and new nexus devices whenever I feel like it straight from Google. Sounds like heaven.

A bit of tact would flatter you, unless you're a teenie bopper, in which case I'll forgive you. You have a point and while the software and hardware has steadily improved in utilizing the batteries, I d still say it's still far from ideal.
I'm glad you don't mind carrying all that extra stuff around but I'd like to be able to rely on the device and the battery that comes with it, rather than having to resort to additional measures.
If anyone has noticed, Zero Lemon has extended batteries made for a selected few devices. Extended batteries are usually made up of two batteries stuck together. Zero lemon makes their own extra large second battery on top that much further extends power capacity.
I put in a request. Please help and put in yours if your interested. Email: [email protected]

Ya i seen these and wanted one, was sad to see its for just a few phones. I really doubt they will make any for a device thats almost 2 yrs old.
I'm looking forward to those batteries that charge off wifi signal, we'll see how long those take to come out...

I won't bother getting the Note 2 this far in the game. Better off waiting for the Note 3.

What if you got a nice used one for 350-400? That's my plan!

Not a bad deal. That N2 is still a powerhouse.:thumbup:

Yep looks like our OG Notes are being shunned for accessories. I combed eBay and Google for a rugged case with battery and got nothing, even an extended battery door case would be lovely, but it seems it's either one or the other: good case or a big battery. Considering the screen size my battery life is decent, but I think I'll be jumping to e Note 3 or Nexus 5 with battery case soon.
My biggest complaint with my GNote which I bought late in the game end of last year full retail yes I shouldnt have gotten an att branded one but they are treating it like a certain windows developer treats their mistakes, Oh we screwed up kick it under the rug and act like it didnt happen, I have tried a few extended batteries they are junk etc some of them are just a regular battery and a weight after disassembling them.
