Awesome to see it come out. Better late than never!
No mention of quick charge. I asked on Amazon. Pricey enough that I think I'll wait for reviews, even though I'm a fan of their products in general. It is nice to see something come out though.
It sure looks like they left an awful lot of void space under the case. If they'd made the battery part of the case they probably could have included more cells and had more capacity.
Too thick for not enough power in my book.

its only $34.99 when you put in the the cart... was showing up $54.99 originally for me
Much more reasonably priced. It was $54.99 when I looked before. Looks like they dropped it down. No Prime shipping, bummer. I can live with that though. No word on QC support.
I'm amused by this copy/paste error...

I think they needed some void space under the case, to account for the curved back of the phone. I'm sure it's possible to build lipo cells with curves, but I doubt ZL makes their own cells and it would probably be cost prohibitive to have some special made for the Nexus curve.
If you ordered first thing in the morning it was listed at 59.95 on Amazon. I had to change my shipping address and stuff so I cancelled and reordered and noticed the price drop.
I got an email from them asking if I wanted to review one of them. Should have it soon.
This cover is so thick, if you have it in your back pocket you have to jump up to sit down.

- too thick
- too late
- not enough juice factoring in the size of the case
had their case on my lg g3 with a whopping 9000mah, that was a beast. this here, not so much.
I wonder how thick it is. Sometimes the pictures make things look worse than they are. I'm curious to see the reviews, I know a few people here bought one.
I did get a reply that quick charge is not supported. Disappointing, as with a larger battery it's even more useful. If this were a 3x battery like the Note series was, it wouldn't matter much, I could get 12+ hours of screen on time with those things. But this isn't even 2x....
Just got a tracking email from their marketing department last night; will be posting a review a day or two after it arrives.

This.
ZeroLemon must have made the Nexus 6 an afterthought to start selling a case 11 months after the phone is released. Shame on them for putting Nexus users last on their to-do list.
I got mine today . I'm gonna post a initial thoughts review tomorrow, its charging now
I think it's awesome that they finally made a battery for the N6. I could deal with no wireless charging. I could also deal with no Turbo Charge. But having neither? I think that's the deal breaker.
I think I'll wait for the new N6 to be released. Maybe I'll get one of these on closeout for those rare long trips.
edit: I doubt it would even be useful on long trips. It's only 3500 mAh on a 6" phone. I might as well just take an external battery in a separate pocket.

How about some pics till u get review up
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Ill put up some pics tom, been down with a stomach bug all day. Im gonna hold off on my review for a few days, im not sure mine is working correctly.
here are some pics against my ballistic case. the case material feels hard and it concerns me about drops. reminds me of the cases used on my old note 2 with the zerolemon extended battery. i might just be biased to the beyond amazing job the rubber bouncy ball feeling of the ballistic case
edit: crap pics are to big
Looks pretty beefy. I hope it fits with my tempered glass screen protector (its the nillkin one with the black border). The case will be a great case for planned events that your going to be on the road a long time and want some extra juice and keep it in your pcoket. Its a shame its no quick charge capable. That would have been awesome.
it fits with my intelliarmor with no problems.

Hey guys I just ordered this case/accessory bundle. I basically just need a case thats easy on/off for work. I dont use a case on my personal time. Im tired of the 2 piece seidio case on my OG evo so thats why I didnt go with another one for this phone. I got an email today saying it was shipping out. Anyone else thinking of ordering this too?

price seems pretty steep for a silicone case. TPU cases usually go for the same amount or cheaper and they come off just as easy but offer more security than silicone cases.
if you jumped on the deal for the extra chargers for work, i would reconsider for something more reliable. i, and many others, would vouche for this car charger bc it charges nearly as fast as a wall charger and has a long track record, though i got it for $2 at the time:

all in all, this is just my opinion. im sure it will hold you by since its just for work

I hear what ur sayin but I waste so much money on stupid crap that I dont even care anymore. I might order one of these as well http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-EVO-4G-...946818?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c65691642
Or maybe ill just wait to see what comes out after the release date if im not happy with the silicone one.
A friend of mine has that motorola charger and I agree, it does work well.
If you end up being happy with it, then you got a great deal. If you notice that the silicon stretches over time, consider TPU, which is equally cheap. I understand exactly what you mean about throwing a lot of money away...
Just to update: I got the phone today and ive had the case for a couple days now. The case fits perfectly. Everything lines up to where it should be.

I prefer the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) cases, they add the least amount of bulk and provide adequate protection. I have one on my 3D and with a screen protector it has survived a year with a few light drops and is still in mint condition.
I ordered the same one on ebay as listed above (Smoke) and got it today, good seller fast shipping
Plus they are only around $5-$10 delivered! Compared to my wife's $40 otterbox that has been warrantied 4 times in less than 11 months!

I have the black one and I hate it. I only bought it cause it was the only one available at the time. The soft rubber feeling sucks, Its comes lose when I pull it out of my pocket. I'm using it for now, while I wait for a TPU case to come in the mail. TPU is 100 times better then silicone.

The two links I just posted are for tpu cases. My original link was for silicone. I like the silicone one so far. No problems with it slipping off when taking it out of my pocket.
I saw the one in your link but I decided against it because I don't like the fact that the camera button and volume buttons are exposed. I like having them covered by the silicone/tpu.
Update: Got the 2 TPU cases in the mail. I hate them. The fit it way too tight. Its really a struggle just to get them on and off. They also ruined my screen protector because it caught the corner of it while putting the case on.
I will say however that once the case is on it has a very nice feel to it and it adds nearly zero bulk to the phone. Its a very tight fit and all of the buttons work perfectly with no problems. Being that im mainly going to be taking these on and off very frequently its not as convenient as just slipping the silicone case on.

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.

Wow billet cnc that is pretty cool. At first I though it had a solid screen cover that was removable in a safety deposit box kind of way, at that point I would have bought one. but that was showing how to put the back on, not the usage.

I would consider it, but I'm worried about signal loss.
It's seems in the photo that the spen would be hard to get out.
Looks great but that silk screening on the back is horrendous and I'm not convinced it won't screw with the signals.

exactly,,after I looked again that silk screen it would have blow the deal. But the concept is good. The N3, really think missed the mark on the chrome surround rim it should be much gippier/sharp edged. after a couple weeks use still not used to it. It looks great and speaks to the history of phones that had a solid horizontal sheet of steel in them, is retro Bond like, but it is just too slippery I just ordered a bounce case to see if I'm more comfortable handling it. I haven't been able to relax with it yet moving from desk to car to home to it's most common spot Oxford shirt pocket.(a la pen protector IT nerd.). Ultimately I want a soft zipper less bag on belt loops that has room for 7 cards and USB key but the phone should still be grippier in hand.
Here's one without the silk screening on the back.

Not much money for cnc billet, if it meets your requirements GET IT. if you zoom browser on the bronze assembly it looks like there is some foam tape along the edge where the phone makes contact. Seems like a real engineer has been influencing this build at some level. I'm in the auto industry and foam and glue are the bread and butter of building.
If it had micro cut machining along the edge I would have already bought it.
They really do make your phone look like a giant iPhone lol its looks good tho. But not a apple fan

I bought one, If I build my ideal belt pouch I think this will be much nicer than the Bounce for phone alone, 20$ for billet machined is too good to pass up regardless of what from it will eventually take. I'm anticipating the anodizing to be rather thin but that may be good or bad. torched or steampunk look is possible.
also men of the world keep your finger nails short, even if you don't work, at least pretend.
I just purchased one also, just too s*xy looking to pass up
Im planning to use with a Qi charger and reciever I bought two weeks ago. I'll not be using the stock battery cover so hopefully it will work fine.

Should be 4 days to 3 weeks if my previous Hong Kong / Singapore experience is correct. Usually Hong Kong is most erratic. China and Korea are pretty much 4 to 5 days regardless.
I was so about to get one of these for my note II, but it was $70 back then, plus it came out around 6 months after I got my phone, wasn't going to buy an expensive case when the new phone was around the corner...
Now I ponder to get this or stick with my flip cover, I love the S-view case and the flip cover on my note II was nice too, but this looks oh-so-nice

Yea ur right its 3200. 3300 just has a better ring to it.
And ebay batteries I wouldnt trust, I used to buy the cheap ones back when I had the evo line, but ever since I went samsung I always buy oem through the carrier, better warranty support that way too

Looks pretty good for $16... I ordered one to give it a shot. Hopefully the picture of the Galaxy S IV is accurate for the note 3 as it looks like the little rubber pads could be cut down to allow my slightly bigger wireless charging back cover to fit, if not oh well thats easy enough to change out.
Even the $30 knock-off lifeproofs for iphones suffered high leakage rates. There is one issue with the sealing band, and your $700 device is SOL. I wouldnt trust it at all.
I am curious to see your results. I really want a solid Water proof case if possible. Wish you luck and hope it works!
If this actually works well then that would be cool but I personally wouldn't want to be the one to test it out lol. I just refrain from taking my device anywhere near water. If it does manage to keep your device from getting wet then that is a $15 well spent.

I could not agree more. A waterproof case is nice to have, but how often are you swimming with your phone? The most moisture it will get is sweat or rain. I am in the Army, in Hawaii. We are outside all day doing stupid stuff in the rain. Rains all the time. A prepared ziplock is just as good
There is a good reason we don't take our phones swimming. They are not waterproof.
if they were. WE WOULD take them swimming. Baggies are great for protecting your phone from moisture while its in your pocket or your back pack. it sucks for shooting video through

What I'm really interested in about this case is the headphone jack.
For me it doesn't need to be completely waterproof as listen to music while I Mtn Bike or trail run with it in a jersey pocket...
I have always used a Dry Case with my other phones
http://www.drycase.com/
This works great to keep condensation out of it as you can suck the air out, however the Note 3 is just a little bit too big for it.
So, while it may not be something you are interested in, this is almost exactly what I'm looking for, 100% guaranteed waterproof would be nice, but not necessary for me.

I wish they made a waterproof for N3, honestly. The best part about work when I had a failphone 5 with a LP case was turning screen up, open notes write "HELP ME IM DROWNING!" and stick phone in a full pitcher of water only to have everyone freakout whenever they saw it.
I dont care if its big, Its fun to traumatize people that way.

Yeah close to the dry case, however no headphone port or one way air valve to prevent condensation... I have had lots of condensation form in ziplocks despite my best efforts to remove all the air.
A good solution for many no doubt.

I wouldn't trust this bag either. I bought one for my Galaxy Nexus when I went to Maui this year and it leaked.
Has anyone got the Love Mei water proof case for the Note 3?
(Sorry for no link, still under 10 posts. You can find it by searching "love mei note 3 powerful" in Google, it's the first link)
I've seen it for roughly half the listed price on ebay and case fanatic but yet to find anyone who's actually tried it yet.
I have ordered but it has not arrived figure another 1-2 weeks

Here's a lifeproof style case for the note 3 that I've just ordered. For only $15 it's worth a try, come on lifeproof aka Otterbox if they can do it so can you. Look out for my review when I receive it

Got a badly translated message from the seller about a warehouse issue, they refunded my order and took down the listing. I asked if they had any timeline for restock, or knew of any other sellers, or more information about the item and they didn't, so I'm suspecting that because the picture showed Galaxy S4 that they maybe have not produced a Note 3 variant yet.
I got my case. I am impressed. Waterproof? yeah not me buddy I won't be testing that with my baby inside.
water resistant? a very optimistic yes. I am really impressed with it so far. impressed enough that I will be doing a long term review and actually use the case for a while and see how it goes.
I have 3 videos uploading now. will post links once they are uploaded (2 are in 4k so they are freaking huge) I did the 3rd vid in 1080p since I liked the case enough I wanted to do it with the real phone in the case instead of the dummy stand in
Videos are online. 3rd video is "processing" should not be too long before its done

I hope everything worked out well for you and your Note 3...lol you've either got 1.) TONS of faith in this untested case, 2.) A large "pair" of ***** or 3.) More money than you know what to do with! lol if it's the 3rd, you can send some my way!
Oh. trust me. this case will NEVER intentionally see water with my baby inside it. no way. waterproof? not a chance. water resistant? probably.
I will test the water resistance with the dummy phone.
My balls are no where near big enough to trust my phone to it in any serious water. no freaking way
I don't need to waterproof my phone, just something I can use to play Ingress when it's raining (I'm in Vancouver, so it rains quite a bit here). I may just get one of the bag type setups (or use a zip lock bag)
yep. bag it and use a bluetooth controller is your best solution for that.
4g still works but the signal is degraded inside the case. I assume all signals are degraded to a point.
Seems that they are finally showing up. Found a 6500 mAh case here, you can select the 6T in the model drop down, as well as colors. For anyone that's interested: Ebay 6T 6500mAh battery case
If you do end up buying one, please report back to this thread with your feedback :laugh:
Selling for $26?! What's the catch, are they made from unstable note 7 battery packs?

Never bro.. They took some duct tape, said hey, the Note 7's explosion wasn't big enough... So they took a battery from a Motorola StarTAK, fused it with a bulging battery of a very very used Nokia 5190, added a few AA batteries and a 3,700 mAh battery inside the case and said hey, you still have that 5190? Cool, lets go play snake!
Well I took one for the team and ordered it should arrive anywhere from December 11th to January 6th I'll let you know

Scary. I'm stuck between grabbing the oneplus 6t or the note9 specifically because of the external battery case. I stuck with the Note 4 for many years because of the battery Tank offered by Zero Lemon. They now have that same power solution for the note 9, but oneplus 6t will cost me less...

The 6ts battery is beast. I get like 5 hours screen on time and that's only at 50 percent battery
I got the battery case from ebay today, testing it out right now. It does not fit very well, definately was not build for the 6T the clamps on the side, barely hold the phone, therefore I wouldn't buy it again, I will try to take some fotos once I am home later.
I got one. It doesn't work with our phone, and the fitment seems as if it were for the 6. I got a refund. The case can be used as a portable battery pack though, via the bottom usb port for charging.
Bought it!!!
I bought this battery case from eBay! Whilst it does fit the OP6T it's actually for the OP6. The case is a tight fit width wise and manages to cover the top just. All in all, it's ok for the price though. I haven't used it as of yet so I couldn't tell how well it lasts.

Any chance we can get a few pics? I'm thinking of getting this case but I'm weary of the fitment.
Purchased this case, I like it, not as slim as they state but does the job. Small lip in the front. I've bought plenty of cases cheaper and expensive, so for the price I think it's okay.
