6000MAH Hyperion battery - G3 Accessories

I personally don't think I'll get a extended battery with this beautifully designed device but I'll leave this here for anyone who may be looking for one but don't want the complete bulk of the Zerolemon .. This one doesn't look to be quite as big :thumbup: cheerz
http://www.amazon.com/Extended-Battery-Hyperion-Compatible-International/dp/B00NLJAEJO
And a different back plate which looks to be better for grip and maybe a little protection .. Is a Tpu case made for this battery style I believe http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00PIBNMEM/ref=pd_aw_sims_3?pi=AC_SY230_QL60

Well I'm recently looking for reviews for this battery cover too. I'm very curious about the thickness of it since it seems the company did select a good angle to kind of make up a illusion of a slim design. And no case for the phone that is having this cover on, that's another problem

True. I'm curious about the same things .....

I ordered mine yesterday from Hyperion website for $24.99 (free shipping, no tax; $4.99 on Amazon). When I get it I will upload some pictures. Stock battery was good in G2, but G3 display is the biggest hog for me.

Received a battery today. I uploaded 3 pics just to show it to the public.
I also measured weight of the phone:
+ without battery: 114g
+ with OEM: 162g
+ with Hyperion: 208g
Now I'm going to measure battery life for a few next days.
I put 2 dimes and 1 nickel to show an extra thickness. Check at home
I'm a heavy user and after one day I can say that this battery is outstanding. Normally I had to charge my phone at least once during the day. With Hyperion I used only 1/3 of juice. It compensate an extra bulk
I don't use NFC, so lack of it is not a problem for me.

Do they have an extended battery case like they usually do.

Sweet review, I bought mine a few days ago can't wait to try it when it gets here

I don't really mind how thick or heavy my phone is as long as it's not ridiculous (like 5 pounds or an inch thick or more) so I got the zerolemon battery. I can't imagine this really saves THAT much space. But then again, with double the stock capacity, it should be useful in either case.

Can you put pictures of it on the phone?

So no reviews after few days of use? I see that this one is currently unavailable. Phone doesn't look that big with this cover.
Anyone else tried this battery?
They have interesting cases but butteries are out of stock even at they website:

I m from Germany and since hyperion don't ship to Germany i was looking for a alternative.
There are lot of companies that have the exact same battery whit cover. Just other brand.
In Germany there is for example "Akku King" or a no name company named "vbh".
I got the vbh battery because the one from "Akku king" was not in Stock.
The battery looks exactly like the hyperion. So far battery life is awesome!!! After 6 hours standby and approximately 3h screen time and some telefon calls i still got 72%.
Also the new cover and battery give you more grip. The phone doesn't tend to slip like whit the Orginal battery and back cover. I will add pictures from the phone with the backcover installed later.
You can order for example this one from Amazon com
LOPURS Back Cover and Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery Replacement

Also that 7500mah battery I have bought from them before with my old note i717 and it didn't seem to last as long as it should ... I believe they aren't real 7500mah batteries .. Just my opinion... if you are going to buy a extended battery to should spend the money for the good ones :thumbup::beer:
2SHAYNEZ

Yes you are right i also doubt that the battery had 7500mAh but 6000mAh for sure. Because it looks exactly the same like the other 6000mAh batteryd. The mugen is interesting but there is no silicon or tpu case for them available. Whit the 6000mAh battery you can at least mount a bumper for screen and edges protection.
But i m eager to read you're review on the mugen battery.

Extended High Capacity 2300mah Phone Battery - Anyone have try this?

Hi,
Found this link and its kinda cheap compared to Seido. Anyone have tried this before and any review?
http://www.usbfever.com/index_eproduct_view.php?products_id=1173
I bought this battery from amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PRCU0U/ref=ox_ya_os_product
It was $23 shipped. Very good battery its best to run it down then recharge it. I can leave gps/3g on all day and not fear a dead battery after a few hours!
Pretty decent battery and half the price of the Seido. I've been using it for a few months now. The only problem is the back cover only ships in one color (black). Otherwise I would recommend it.

wow. it is the same product at the amazon. now we got cheaper price. thanks for the head up!
Still waiting on mine from china. 10-21 Days, that is crazy.
What I really wonder regarding all those extended batteries:
Why do the manufacturers leave so much space unused? I mean if you get the new back cover, it must be as thick as the battery. But on top and below the battery there is just air floating around between the phone electronics and the extended cover, where battery power could be placed.
I would be glad to see a manufacturer use this space as well - so the battery might be formed somehow like a flat T. Would be a little more complicated to produce but might well be worth an extra 1000 mAh without making the phone thicker - that should convince some customers I guess.

Ive Read About Laza's Regular 1900 Slim Battery's But This One Is Different And Looks Better Than Other Extended Battery's Ive Seen. Plus All Of Its Reviews Are A1
I just bought this battery on ebay today for $13 and its an USA seller too. It should be here a little less than a week. Ill probably put up a video or pics of my first impression and close up the battery if you guys want. Then a little after I'll do a full review once I train my battery and give it some tests. I'm a pretty heavy user so dont be disappointed if I get less than 10 hours, since I average 3-4 hours off the stock battery.

I would suggest you read the reviews right from the Amazon link you posted. They give you exactly what you are asking for, personal reviews. Because of this I ordered one and I love it. I cut a hole in my TPU case to fit the cover, it's not perfect it gets the job done as I don't want my phone to be without a case/cover and it only cost me 4 bucks at the time.
When you get it it says that it needs five full charge and discharge cycles for full capacity. I actually used it once for TWO DAYS on a single full charge. :highfive:
The oddly shaped case is a love or hate design. The plus is that the edges are the thickness of a regular case instead of the fat thickness all other extended batteries have. I also feel it fits better and the buttons, power volume up and down, work better than other backs I've seen although I've never seen the Seidio back. Minus is that the design has this huge unsightly bulge and less than nice aesthetics.

This battery is great idk why one of the posters thinks they lie. I bought if for about 13 bucks. I can ge about 14 hours of medium to heavy use. Which is way way better than stock. I have a sorta review on the android forums i just cant link cause im new here :/

Just got my 4000mAh battery

I just got the battery from seidio thats 4000 mah ITS A GO! it drains slow even when im on 1.5 ghz awesome battery guys definitley a worth buy i got better battery life when i kept it on charge for hours so if your not sure to get the battery or not and if u dont mind the little thickness guys this battery is awesome.
EDIT: the power button is a bit hard to press you will have to press it hard(TWSS) ?
Please do a little testing and report the behaviour.
I think (if your results stay good) I will give it a try.

4000mah that's alot of battery juice ...Is it worth the bulk?
You can get the 3500 mah battery for the same bulk as the 4000.when I first got the battery I still haven't removed it or thinking of that for me it's worth it the bulk that is but for some 55$ is a bit over for a battery price
yeah in that case might as well go with the 4000mah... I should probably upgrade myself still using stock battery...usually last me around 70% of the day
Sorry to drudge this up, but how's the battery holding up? Is the Seidio backplate really as bad of a fit as everyone says it is? I am seriously considering getting one cuz I wanna use my phone all day instead of sparingly.

Thanks for sharing the story, I currently have the default 1.71 battery and I mean like it lasts for the day with low/moderate usage but it isn't enough for me. How much did you pay this battery and where can I purchase it from? :good:

This battery is extremely well. That extra 500 of juice as proven itself useful.
As far as the size, people will get over it. I had a few buddies comment on my phones size and I kindly tell them I wasn't blessed with small hands like them, so to me, it's not big.
Bottom, the price tag for the battery and full package protective case has already paid itself off in my last convoy. Dropped while I was loading up cargo on the deuce and a half and it didn't shatter. When I was in the field, I had the only working cell phone pass the two week mark.
So if you're on your phone a lot and don't always have a power source to charge, this and the 3500 battery are for you. I had the 3500, but again, that extra 500 made a difference with me.

I bought that battery from cowboom in September when this was posted, and it definitely needs the expanded replacement cover as it is about twice as thick as the stock battery. The cover fits well though, unlike the Seidio that has has gaps at bottom of the phone for a lot of people, including me.
There's no way that a 3500mah battery could use the normal cover. Here's the Amazon listing for the same battery where the photos more clearly show the larger cover.

If you're in the US you can get the specially designed branded version made for Best Buy on EBay for under $20. Just search for Platinum instead of Seidio. You can get the cases cheaper that way also if you decide to stay with a factory battery although I've seen a few surface extended cases for less than $10.

So is Anker. Have used them for many phones and have nothing but the best to say. Mugen may be good but it is way overpriced.
I got a 3500mah battery off eBay for like 25 bucks from E-cell, a quality Japanese company. Its pretty decent, last all day under moderate to heavy use. I recommend, expecially for cost,
Nothing that fits under the stock cover will last any longer than the stock unit. All of those claims of higher ratings are all smoke and mirrors...
If you want something that last longer get the Mugen 5400mah with cover. I've never looked back and I never have to worry about battery life anymore.

I have this battery, my only problem is nobody makes a case for it. I bought the ones that's made for the hyperion international version, with a little massaging, it fits but the power and volume rocker are hard to operate. If and when you can find a case that fits, would you kindly post or PM me where to buy it from. Thanks.

Nothing I have found. But I understand where your coming from. I can no longer use it in the Car Dock, I had to use a universal dock.
But unfortunately I have many aftermarket batteries that are the stock size and they all claim to be something they are not. So you have a few options...
1. Use a large battery and deal with the downsides.
2. Live with the smallish battery life.
3. Get a new phone.
I am planning on getting the Note 2 and even though it comes with a larger battery I will probably still buy a larger battery for it if one becomes available as I have realized that having my phones last for 2-3 days has become such a huge asset that it outweighs the downsides. Its actually quite liberating not having to always worry where I'm going to charge my phone. 16 planes rides, 4 hour bus rides, tons of heavy GPS/Map use. I never worry anymore...
I think Samsung (and others) really needs to start making the phones thicker instead of thinner and putting larger batteries in them. I would gladly buy something like a Galaxy Note that is say 50% thicker with a huge battery, vs having to go aftermarket and getting a 100% thicker phone. This obsession with thin phones is for cosmetic reasons and is something I would normally say happens with the Apple crowd as they tend to buy phones for how it makes them look, not necessarily for what the phone does. No offense to any Apple folks, but you know what i'm talking about. If you have a small phone, ok sure thin might be an advantage. But what the heck is the point of making a 5+ inch phone thin as can be?
Excellent points. Thanks!
I have a nice case, but only allows for a standard battery...

I just had the stupidest argument just a few hours earlier about this very thing. My Note is pretty much a computer I carry on my belt. If I could just get rid of the 450 minutes and get, say, 100 minutes and put the balance towards a higher data plan, I'd be better off. I guess it just depends on how you use your phone. Mine is a life line, but not to call anyone. If otterbox made a case to fit a bigger battery, I'd rock it all; my wife gets all shame-faced with me when I use my phone because she says it's like I'm holding a wall up to my face..

I got a 3500mah battery off eBay for like 25 bucks from E-cell, a quality Japanese company. Its pretty decent, last all day under moderate to heavy use. I recommend, expecially for cost,

Is this the one you guys are referring to?
Can you post screen time with this?
http://www.amazon.com/3500mAh-Capacity-Business-Battery-Samsung/dp/B008CYPL6Y
Delivery time is a whopping 18-26 days, not sure if I should just get this instead:

Your first link is for the international version and wont fit an AT&T note. It also is not 3500mah, those are fake claims, its the same as the stock battery.
Your second link will actually give you more battery capacity. Around 5 hours of screen on time.

6 hrs. screen on for me consistently. It effective doubled my battery life, which makes sense, because it is essentially 2 cells sandwiched. See my comment in the thread about the laza for a bit of a review.

Yeah I have heard about some of those extended batteries being two stock batteries fitted together. Has anybody tried the AceSoft 5600mAh Extended life battery w Hard Back Cover Door?

With the exception of branding, it looks like the laza. 5600mah is doubtful. Seriously, all the extended batteries look to be to stock battery clones sandwiched, and since all the aftermarket batteries are highly unlikely to match OEM capacity per cell, 5ah is the best we can reasonably expect.

I would agree, I have two sets of those from another manufacture and they are not 5600mah, I get about an hour less screen on time compared to my Mugen 5400mah, and those batteries are slightly thinner than the Mugen, so I would put then at 4600mah or so...

Battery Case options?

I have seen 3 battery case options. There is some cheap Chinese one all over Amazon and Ebay. It has different manufacture names but is completely the same.
The other 2 are the official one and the Mophie version. Is there anything in between? Not the cheap Chinese one for 25 or the expensive Mophie one for 100. Thanks
I have the official one - you can find them for under $60 on Ebay. It's great, no problems with it, does exactly what you'd want a battery case to do.

The wireless one? How much mAh does it lose during the charging, more or less than a wired one?
I received the mophie battery case about a week ago. With the case fully charged, and the phone also fully charged, I've gone exactly a full 48 hours without having to plug into a wall outlet (and there was still 10% left). It's a great battery case and well built. I do wish it was a bit thinner though, but I guess that's unrealistic since there needs to be a battery inside the case!
In terms of other options, Incipio has just released a battery case for the s7, and it's about 30 dollars cheaper than the mophie, but I don't think it has the wireless charging option like the mophie does. However, the Incipio has a significantly larger battery (3700mAh vs Mophie's 2950mAh). I'm contemplating whether to return the mophie and pick up the Incipio and save 30 dollars, since I don't have a wireless charger (I had ordered the mophie before Incipio has released their battery case).
Someone posted his thoughts on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS7/comments/4eruno/two_days_with_the_galaxy_s7_backpack_battery_case/ and I bought it too, its fine. Expensive but its well built and does a good job. I don't trust any of the chinese mAh specs so I wouldn't compare them without a real review...
I just bought the Incipio for its large battery size and slimness compared to other cases. Wireless charging is not really important to me as much as making my phone last the day! It's on it's way, so I'll let you know if its terrible/awesome. As a side note, I got 15% off with a code from the website, making it less than $60 in total.
I just received the Incipio one yesterday so I could compare it with the Mophie and decide which to keep. while the Incipio is well built, I had issues with the fit. Firstly, it was pulling up my screen protector in some areas. Second, the top frame that clips into place would not fit properly once the phone was actually installed. I can take pictures of the case itself, but since I don't have another camera I can't take pictures of the fitting issues.
Considering all this, I'd go with the Mophie. Going to be returning the Incipio

I own and have used one of the "cheap" Chinese battery cases. Over an extended Memorial Day weekend it served me well. I don't know whether the claimed 4200 mAh is accurate. What I can say is that during a day of heavy use while away from a regular electric supply, I never was in danger of running short. Nor did it add an uncomfortable weight. While the more expensive, name-brand battery cases may bring something extra to the table, I expect that, for the most part, battery cases have become a commodity item. Indeed, I've come to the same view regarding wireless charging pads.
Any suggestions regarding slimmest? It seems the thinnest one comes in at around 0.69in with 4500mah. I just want 2000mah. Anyone know of the thinnest battery case on the market?
According to me Mophie battery case is the best one. The 3300mah battery case can provide 60% extra battery to your samsung galaxy s7 edge.
I bought 2 of these battery cases from AliExpress. Claimed Mah is 5200,however from they manage to charge my phone from 0-85% with light usage. Which i'm satisfied with. I would've thought 5200 would've charged my phone completely and then some but the manufacturers claim is that transfer loss accounts for the remaining 25-30%.
I'm not complaining because they do the job for just $20 apiece. Anyone familiar with batteries who could confirm that due to transfer loss while charging a 5000mah battery will only charge a 3600mah phone to less than 100%.??

sounds like too much of a loss IMO.
Personally when I had my zerolemon extended battery for the S4 it was perfect. They're a great company. The 7500MaH is available for the s7 and i dont doubt it will give you ALL of that extra power. They have great customer service and are always willing to help where needed.
Has anyone tried one for their S7 yet? it looks pretty massive but then for an extra day or two of life on it, i could deal with that
i had a zero lemon one for my s3 it was great thinking of getting one for my s7 now

ive got there 7500mah one for the s7 its sweet.
its now 20:40 and im on 100% battery and the case still has 3/4 bars charge left with heavy usage (you can turn the battery case on/off)
i cant post a screenshot of the battery life as the phone thinks its being charged from the genuine charger (it charges quick)

its bigger than my old nokia.
and i mean proper nokia, 6610 etc the battery life on it is still better than my s7 and its on its original battery lol
It's not what you buy its what you build
Side note, the zerolemon s7 case also fits my girlfriend's s6 edge perfectly.

Is there any good comparison of the Mophie, Incipio or Zerolemon. I'd love to see some?
I ordered a Zerolemon, have had them in the past and have been good. I'll report back when I receive it and use it for a few days. 7500 us a good bit extra, should last me at least 2 days maybe 3 through the work week.
