The reason why i bought this battery is because i wanted to end my work shift with at least 20-30 percent(on a single battery) f obattery left to make phone call if needed, extend my phone usage away from a charger and longer web searching and the Andida 2000mAh didn't help at all. The result
OEM Battery 1500mAh: listening to music from 4 to 1am = 10% battery life left
Andida 2000mAh: ran 3 test each time my phone ended up dying around 11:30-12:00 this battery is not 2000mAh it somewhere around 1100-1300 it make an good back up battery but not an good extended battery.
I well be running some more test, like how long it last on 3G compared to the OEM battery but as of now i see theres no need to.
If you need an extra battery this is worth the money, but if you need an extended battery its not.
I got mine about 2 weeks ago. Haven't seen anything Earth-shattering as far as performance under normal use, but I watched a 2 and half hour movie on the device yesterday and it only went down to 50%.

i listen to alot of music etc etc daily when im at work so that when i would be able to see if its really a big change. I always end the night with about 10 percent of battery life.
Not terrible
I'm using a pair of these, with an external charger. I don't see that they provide a lot of advantage over the original HTC 1500Ma battery that came with my TP2, but they are an acceptable substitute.
One thing to keep in mind - I think they are heavier than the stock batteries. They are advertised as LiPoly, but I think they are LiIon.

It's under $10. Even if it's only as good as the stock battery it is well worth the money considering the stock one costs about $40. Even an OEM off eBay is as much as $16.

for an extended battery it not, i was looking for extended battery life without having to switch to another battery but this battery didnt do its job 2000mAh i don't think so its at least 1100-1300 i notice my battery died faster even on normal usage compared to the OEM. I honestly had enough of it :\... about to add some MM to my TP2 and get a bigger battery.

You are using the US T-Mobile version, from what I can see in the pix you posted; the only one available is the Mugen 3200, it runs about $79. I have not considered it because it really makes the back of the phone stick out. And it is expensive.
I buyed an used Touch pro 2. so i dunno how was the OEM battery when it was new. When i replaced with this 2000 mAh it nearly double up the battery life. From my site there is full satisfaction.

Aside from the poor English in your post, there's no way a 2000mAh battery is giving you double the battery life or even close to it. It is only 33% higher capacity than the stock battery.

Wow. Thanks for the heads up people. I was just on eBay looking at this battery and thinking about buying it. I was a little iffy about it. Guess I won't now.

Np, i full charge and completely drain the battery and still the same results
Took the plunge and bought the 1900 slim battery for the vigor . First impressions are it is definitely lasting longer than the stock slim battery. I will take a couple days to test and make sure it is not a placebo effect.
Are you refering to this battery?
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...extended-battery-for-verizon-htc-rezound.html
Yep it looks slim, fits inside and doesnt require extra backdoor cover.
Concerning the performace please post your test results, i am pretty curious, but at the same time very confident, Mugen is a good brand.

I will post results tomorrow...
I bought the mugen extended battery for the thunderbolt. It definitely did last longer then the OEM one but, when the rezound came out I bought a extra battery and that one lasted MUCH longer on the thunderbolt. That mugen battery didn't work right on the rezound so I didn't need it when I sold the rezound. I bought an oem extended battery for my rezound and I love it.

just got this battery today im a heavy user, ill post results next week
Im interested in seeing the results, I have been thinking of getting a larger battery, but did not want the larger cover and the bulk that comes with it
Still waiting to hear real results, plus how the temperature is.
Also looking forward to the results.
I am too. I would get one if it was actually better than stock.
I believe in the past the problem with third party batteries was the not the initial performance but the extremely short life span of the battery. Over time batteries will gradually loose their ability to hold a charge. So buyer beware, these batteries may be great for the first month or two then significantly drop off.
Good luck
anyone have this battery for a decent amount of time? I am all for just a little more battery, without the bulk of the extended.
How does it work!?!?
My Results!
Here are my results from today. I've had the battery since Monday, so I gave it few days before doing this. At the rate I used it today (Texts, Calls, 4G Use), it would have been dead by the 5 hour mark. Also, 111 is the lowest my phone has ever been when using Wireless Tether. I still text a lot while it's doing that too, and it's always at 120 or slightly above, so that seems to be an improvement as well.
initial impressions
Street putting it through is paces it sends like I am getting about 2 to 3 hours extra life compared to the 1620 battery...I have had it since Monday.
Just got mine last night, initial impression is that it lasts a few hours longer. I was at about 40% at 5 hours 30 mins, at which time I was usually at around 25-20%

Guys,
I recently got the 1900 mugen batt and I just dled this app and it says my battery is 1590mah. I was wondering if i got ripped or the app is inaccurate. I will dl another battery app and double check it.
Just wanted to see if I have the same battery everyone else has.

Mine said the same thing, but running it through some tests, it definitely last longer than the stock battery.
I am getting about 7-8 hours of normal use out of this battery, which is a few hours longer than the stock. One thing to note, however, and I'm not sure why, but last night I let it get down to the 15% warning and at 10% it just died and wouldn't turn back on. Charged up and we're fine now, so I'm not sure what happened.

Well I can't officially say this battery is noticeably better than the stock. I am getting a solid 3 to 4 hours better battery life. I have had it for a week now and the placebo effect is gone.

3-4 better is pretty good.

You have to calibrate your battery before you'll really see it's full potential.
Have had this 3500mAh battery from Hyperion for about a week. I did all the steps but its still giving me crap battery life. I tried emailing Hyperion but they won't respond. Can anyone help? Look, I'm not lying.

All I can offer is my personal experience w/the TREXCELL 3500 battery that I use. It lasts anywhere between 12-16 hrs. w/moderate to heavy use. I run w/auto sync & PERFORMANCE MODE selected in the battery section of SETTINGS.
For $20-$25,it's one of the best battery bargains you'll find anywhere.

I've noticed that my Hyperion is hit or miss. Some charges, I'll get 33 hours on a single charge, others like today, I'm at 67% after 5 hours. What do we really expect for like $15?
Personally, my fav battery so far is the Akner 1600. It's smaller than the stock one, but I get around 10 hours with pretty decent usage.
I'm not able to see your picture. Either my job has probably started blocking those attached images (highly possible ).
I haven't had much of an issue with my battery, but I have noticed that it gets hot easily. That may be something you'll want to watch out for in the future. Also, does your phone show the battery in 1% increments or is still stuck on the default 10% jumps? If so, when you hit 5% or 1% it may just sit there for hours while still draining. I'm only asking this because I can't see your picture, I don't know what it shows.
Simply put, I use my phone... ALL THE TIME. I can barely make my battery last 4 hours with all the WIFI and YouTube and texting.
This stock battery just isn't enough. Anyone have a recommendation for the battery with the longest life?
Ofc at a reasonable price.

I'm sure you can find it elsewhere cheaper.
FYI all the 'extended batteries' that are the same size as stock suck.
It isn't size I want. Photon is slim as it is. I don't mind adding a few mm of thickness for a boss battery

The TREXCELL 3500 is an excellent battery that'll last all day w/moderate to heavy use.
Can't beat the price, approx. $20-$25,might find them even cheaper on eBay or AMAZON right now, saw it for $15 on one of those sites.

I'm about to post my review for this battery.
I have been using a seidio innocell battery on my photon for the last 3 months. Let me first tell you that I watch a lot of videos on my phone. The 3g is on constantly. Or Wi-Fi. The average times for discharge of battery from 100% to 0% is 16 hrs. Also I don't let my battery go below 5%. So, from personal experience I can say that this is a great battery. But it's a bit expensive. You could try other brands like Hyperion which are cheaper.

hi, what battery status app you use with the seidio extended batt ?

I can recommend Hyperion's 3500 mAh batteries, they work great. I have two simply because I may not be able to charge my phone everyday. I'm a very heavy user and never any access to wifi. Each battery can get me through most of a day. I spend my entire day stressing the heck out of my phone. During the few hours going to work, being at work and going home or to another job.

Good to know about the hyperion batteries. Was originally thinking of buying them,but the few reviews that I read were not totally positive. So opted for seidio,which is a little more expensive than hyperion.
How is the quality of the back cover that is provided along with the battery?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
So since yesterday, my seidio battery has been acting very strange. While charging it goes from 50% to 100% in a flash and while discharging also, the same thing happens. Can any once suggest any remedies?

I was looking around spare battery for my new Note 3 and found some of the same size as original. I had one of those mpj batteries for my previous S3. It probably exaggerate their specs, but still managed to squeeze several hundred more mah and worked good even five months later. Much better than my OEM one out of amazon. Thought it was still worth a roll of the dice to go back to a replacement battery from them. Just received mine yesterday, didn’t measure how much longer but I assume it lasts me 1-2 hrs more before it died.
Edit: I think the battery is still be good condition.
Cheers
ive actually ordered one of these with the added NFC, i hope it goes well. will post here specs also.

It probably adds 10% amount of the new stock battery, but still think it is a good replacement:cyclops:impressive for 20 bucks.
Mine arrived today, its the same size and backcase fits on fine. Im currently charging it up. it came with 57% charge but so far, a episode of the walking dead (40 mins) took 8% battery with full brightness.

That sounds not bad
After a night of full charge, i took it off and battery drained 4% in 2 mins 30 seconds. Only had wifi of and did not do anything heavy other than check email. Not good! ill see how i go through out the day,.
Im hoping this will be sorted after a few recharge cycles etc..but i may have to have the stock battery as a backup!
My sister ordered one and it arrived few days ago. Screen on 38% and at 10 hrs she was still at 70% left.
If anyone has this battery or any extended battery please download gsam in the market it will give you the exact voltage of your battery for example see picture. . This is my stock Battery it's low because my phone currently needs a charge but I would imagine that of someone had an extended battery that was fully charge it would give you the accurate mah so we can see what batteries are legit on ebay and amazon and share with our fellow xda users

What what I recall, with smartphone batteries, the first 15% will always discharge faster. remember, percentage isn't rate.
