Got myself this along with my friend. Just got a i717 and probably need some batteries from all those video playback i'll be doing. It's rated at 2800mAh seems pretty good! I'll post some results in next couple days!

I'm really curious about this one.
I wouldn't mind trying it just because we don't have NFC baked into our batteries.
Although I'm not sure how it will do vs. the OEM one
consider this is near the price of a single official battery, i think this is worth a shot!
Does this require a new battery cover? If not I might pick it up.
WOW... only 2800mah x 2 pcs + charger, It's a very good deal WOW WOW WOW
Does this fit behind the stock battery cover?

From what we can tell, yes. Just higher capacity w/ the same size.
One nice thing about this is that we get to keep our NFC while boosting the battery
Has anyone got this yet and tested it? It's very tempting... although my note's battery life is better than my skyrocket...
I highly doubt it actually has a higher capacity than the OEM battery. All of the aftermarket batteries I've tried, even though claiming to have higher capacities than OEM (2900mAh), have only been ~65-75% of OEM. They seem to have no problem lying. So the best deal so far seems to be the $3 batteries on ebay.
definitely report back with some results. I would love to know if they are atleast as good as OEM although I am always really skeptical about after market batteries as I have yet to find any that work as they claim....
I would love it if a 3000mAh could fit stock.
i would agree IF it really pans out to be a 3000MAh battery however if history dictates anything... it wont...
QCell has some good reviews on Amazon. And you also get a battery charger. I think it would be worth it

Lying???? That is a terrible thing to say. Everyone knows you can get batteries for 1/4 the price and they are just as good...especially pin Ebay!
Stick with OEM on batteries for better performance. I found out the hard way a few times.

OEM are good no doubt but definitely not the best bang for the bucks. Consider price of one oem is 4 of these. Even if they are of 80% capacity of oem, it is still much more than original capacity combined
ran some tests for a week and these are faring very well. In fact with these two batteries I don't need to use my OEM ones anymore. Both batteries last as long as the OEM batteries I have. With these two, I can go out for a full day without worry of no power This is quite good of an investment for my i717 juice sucker.
Wonder when the extended battery for this is out. Will be interesting to have just one battery and that's it

i am already using it and it works very well. Give you some ideas, with my originally battery, it normally lost 50% in around six hours （not very bad tho）, with this qcell, i lost around 50% in ten hours. but that's in my case only, not sure about others.

I'm surprised; you are having a much better experience than I did. Care to do some rundown tests of your own and compare to mine?

Just an FYI for everyone, I weighed the batteries, here are the results:
QCELL: 39 grams
HYPERION: 41 grams
Samsung OEM: 49 grams

All these batteries + G1 Dock with 2nd slot battery charger = WIN.
So. Many. Batteries.
Just got my other two in from ebay at $4 a pop. They were supposed to be OEM replacements but to my suprise, one of them says "1300mAh Replacement Battery For HTC G1". The other looks like a replica of an OEM battery but you can tell its not OEM. For $8 for both though, who really cares? lol, here's some pics of all my batteries.

Seidio 2600mAh With Extended Back Door $50
Andida "1600mAh" Extended Batteries (2) They are $10 each but i got em $10 for both
And of course, my stock OEM pos bloated HTC battery but you all know what that looks like.
Think i got enough Juice?
Impressive. I also have a 'defective' andida that I charge with an external charger. I have one of those white label batteries that came with one of my external chargers. It's a good emergency battery, but inferior to the OEM. I have a Seido 1400 that works pretty well. The Seido and the Andida seem to last about the same time in the phone. I still use the OEM even though it started bulging a bit. I hope that doesn't mean it's about to explode.
Depending on usage, I can rotate out all four batteries in a single day. The new radio has improved battery life, though.
How do they perform?

Yea, i was gonna spring for the Seidio 1400 but for the price, i just spent a couple more dollars and got the 2600 Extended at the time. My OEM battery is buldgy as a mofo too, that sh!t scares me sometimes lol. It dies so quick, its ridiculous.

There is no words for the Seidio 2600, that thing is a beast. 3 days easy with everything on. The Andidas last about a day and a half with heavy usage and some things turned off. The others i havent tested yet and the OEM is garbage, lasts about 4 hours max with LIGHT usage.
I have no plans on making my G1 a super brick...yet.
Hey do you have a link for the andida battery, I cant find'em anywhere .

Unforunately, he stopped selling them after the whole fiasco he went through with getting a bad batch and sending it out to everyone then having to replace them all...he just called it quits. =\
If you wanna see exactly what im talking about, just read up on the Andida 1600mAh Battery thread, its like 50 pages long from various XDA members including myself waiting months and months and months for a working $10 extended battery...it was crazy.
On another note though, i've heard there are other 1600mAh extended batteries on ebay so just do a search and they should come up. I think i remember one guy telling me about "Ecell" extended batteries? Give it a go and let us know how it goes.
Hey everyone here is my little review on the Qcell "4150 mAh" Extended battery sold on Amazon.
First thing I have to say is that I WILL be updating this post as I go through charge cycles with this battery.
Upon receiving the battery yesterday, I put it to charge right away. I did a stress test on it and let it recharge once more after draining. I must say that the packaging on it is better than most "ebay" batteries that I receive. It came in a little "Qcell" pouch with the battery and cover.
Today, I tested the battery. It ran for ~18hrs 40 min with a 4 hour screen time and 3 email accounts pushing with moderate internet browsing.
I have to say at the moment, it is not worth carrying this pregnant phone around with only the ~5 hrs increase in usage time. However, I hope that after it goes through some charge cycles it will get better. The battery it self is about 1.4 cm thick(I just used a ruler and eyeballed it)
Now moving on to the cover. The back cover is white and semi close to the OEM back cover. It has no markings anywhere and is not as glossy. The back "hump" is is unlike the Mugen Extended Battery covers, it only raises the battery portion while leaving the camera/flash flush with the phone. The cover does feature the NFC however, I do not know how to test it . It also has NO kickstand.
Problems:
My main complaint at the moment is the cover IS VERY LOOSE on the phone . I do not even need to pry it apart using the corner near the volume rocker, I can literally pull it off by jiggling it from one side.
I have sent a complaint to Qcell and they are sending me a new cover so hopefully I just received a defective model.
In conclusion, the battery it self isn't too pricy and I honestly should expect a premium quality with it. The battery does it's job by outlasting the OEM/Ankers that I use but at the moment I would rather stick with my Ankers. The pregnant phone also doesn't look as attractive and slick. I also cannot use my case which makes me very paranoid about dropping it.
Let me know if you guys need any more pictures or have any questions!
Here are some picture comparisons of the battery on my phone, OEM and Extended.
P.S. sorry about the last picture, my OEM battery is still in use so I decided to grab the next closest thing, the Anker one haha.

Thanks for the info and pics. Hopefully through battery gets better.
Wow that cover makes the phone look more than twice as thick. I am surprised.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
sexy + ugly = ugly!
I rather carry a normal size spear battery in my pocket.
Update after a week of use.
After about a week of use, I can say that it honestly is not worth carrying this around. If Qcell would produce a better battery cover then I may consider going back but at the cost of my phones beauty and impracticality I'm going to have to put this battery away except for when I have no other batteries to use.
The battery has performed better(as it should) from day one. I can get a full day of heavy use which is nice, but the LOOSE battery cover just keeps me paranoid.
How this has helped you with your choice on 1 of the many extended batteries out there.
I like it
Just wanted to help out and say try it again. I had a heck of a time getting my cover on as well. I like how I can mod my old silicone case for this. And battery will hopefully get better with time.
Tip- try placing phone on flat surface and press hard on edges near battery. Mine snaps tight.
I think it would be a better idea just to get another battery. That over-sized battery just looks hideous on the phone. How were you able to put it in your pocket?

I completely agree, I have 3 ankers at my disposal along with my OEM
But I just figured I give it a shot since no one on the forums has done a review on it yet and it is also my first Extended battery for any phone I have owned.
If you have decided it is something you will not use and you would consider selling it, I am interested. I am in the hospital at the moment, but should be out by Wednesday, I will have my paycheck by then and can make arrangements with you.

Jb0nd38372,
They are only 11 bucks on Amazon with free shipping. I think it's cheaper than buying from me TBH. Because shipping it out to you would cost a few bucks.
Thanks for the offer tho!
Ok just thought I would offer, and I had never checked price, actually just skipped to the review part. Gotta wonder for 11 bucks wonder what they skipped on. The cells may be of the "questionable" quality.

Well for 1, the cover is crap...
and the battery is not amazing compared to my OEMS/Anker.
It sucks our phones are so thin for extended battery. Thanks for the review though, I was trying to picture the extended battery on the note. I think i'm go with 3-4 spare batteries

Haha good choice, go with Ankers or OEMs. Had the best output with them.
Just sent my QCell Batteries back to Amazon. One would not take a charge and the other one would only last 9 hours.
Picked up Anker as a replacement.

Here's what I've come up with:

GET THIS: search over. http://www.cowboom.com/product/823263
its a rebranded seido (3400mah). its double the life for cheap. they used to sell this in retail at best buy. bought mine a week ago, it was 6.99 then.
its basically the 4000mah battery with less mah. but for way cheaper.
cowboom is great but if you have doubts you can google or ebay the model number HDB21SB its usually under 20 bucks.

Given the little flap in the back of the dock i see no way that it could.
the battery nearly doubles the thickness of the 3d for 90 percent of the length.
the battery its self is basically two stock batteries stacked together.
I have both the 4000 and 3500. The 4000 is my primary and 3500 the secondary. They're both excellent. You just have to reboot it a couple of times to get a full charge. It can't be helped.

I have the Anker 1900. Stock battery size and was cheap! About £8-9.

The 4000 and 3500 you posted are the ones I have. People say it makes are phone look big, but I just tell them to not hate on me for for not having small hands like they do.
What made me get them? When I was out in the field, I wasn't always near an outlet. There where times when I was away from a power outlet for weeks. It was nice knowing I had the only working phone out there to make calls.

So the Seido Innocell and the 3500 Incredicell from AccessorySwamp.com are quality batteries you're saying. Heard anything about the Laza Zcell? It's 3460, instead of the 3500, and a bit cheaper. I think I've narrowed my choices to the 3 above. Thinking I'll start with the 3500.
Absolutely. Those both have a great track record. As for the last one, that's an odd one for me. Some people say it works, and others no. It's all about where you want to put your money pimpin.
i got the platinum SE (the one on cowboom). it works great, but i dont use it anymore. Battery life is good enough with stock after the first couple days of excitement for my phone wore off. Now i have extra battery left every night when i go to sleep, and so theres no point putting on the bigger heavier battery

And if you guys had the extended batteries, the results would be three times that shown.
The 4000 can also be bundled with a protective case. It's definitely a good investment if you're clumsy, or have rough working environments.

I would love an extended battery for the G3, but goddamn do they make their cases aesthetically unpleasing.
I'd only buy slim batteries. I don't want a super huge battery that adds a lot of bulk.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Free mobile app
I think I may just go the route of a second battery if it's even necessary. It won't take more than a few seconds to pop in. I've yet to see a Zero Lemon case that I'd actually want to use. They are pretty fugly.
I have the 7000mAh ZeroLemon for my Galaxy S3. My decision for the LG G3 was also based on it having an exchangeable battery. If ZeroLemon will have a battery for the G3 I will surely get it. I just wonder whether ZeroLemon will also include the wireless charging in the back cover...
i would much rather carry a second battery with me and pop it in if my first battery die, than to carry around a brick all day. Their cases are so ugly.
To be honest, I'm mixed on these slim batteries from ZeroLemon. I have one for my Galaxy S4, which is supposed to be higher capacity than the original one, but I can;t see any difference (I switch from one to the other when they;re empty, and always get roughly the same time).

No surprises here. The benefit of extended batteries have always been sacrificing some bulk for not having to carry or keep swapping batteries out. You charge it for the day and you don't have to think about it.
Whether the benefit is worth it to you or not is a personal thing of course.
Personally, I purchase both a spare battery for daily use and an extended battery for those extended trips/flights/etc...
TLDR: One solution is not "better" than the other as they both have their own purpose.
My experience is that I got used to the increase in bulk. (Actually I preferred the feel of it after about a week.) I NEVER get used to running out of battery. ZeroLemon completely changed my cellphone experience. Being able to travel and play video games almost nonstop for 20 hours is nice. If I forgot to charge the phone a couple of days in a row... not a big deal. ZeroLemon completely eliminated my worries about my battery dying too soon. I hope that ZeroLemon drops the G3 battery very soon. I hope that it will be over 9000 mAh (Triple the capacity is what they tout.) I will be getting a ZeroLemon as soon as possible.
I'm waiting to see if the case that it comes with is the tpu or the rugged ZeroShock case. I had a ZL on my note 2 and loved it, 4 to 5 days of hard use with low signal most all the time. Loved it, and got use to the bulk I kinda prefer that I guess.
It's going to be sweeeet.
From their Facebook:
ZeroLemon fans,
We appreciate your patience as we've been dealing with delays for our LG G3 products.
Here is a preview of the 9000 mAh capacity battery and ZeroShock case!
We are still working on the exact date, but it will be available by the end of August.

Well, the design isn't horrible, but I'd like something on the slimmer side. I'd take a slimmer back cover/case (like the Slim Guard + a bigger battery) over their super rugged with ginormous battery if that was an option. I'm probably just going to buy their replacement batteries with a charger once they become available and stick to standard cases.

I do agree, I don't think the thickness on this phone should be so much bigger. I like how it lays in my hand atm,
So like you, I would like Slim Guard w/ bigger battery.
gonna we able to use this battery without zeroshock case? Just replace orginal battery with this one?
Regards,
Loris
any word on a in-between size? when i had my galaxy s3 i had a 3000 mah battery from samsung... just wondering.
I've had a zero lemon for my Galaxy Note 2. They're the best. Period. Triple the battery life? Yes please. As one person said I can get used to extra bulk, I cant get used to running out of battery mid day. Stock batteries blow, plain and simple. Unless you dont actually use your phone.
I will be buying this tout suite the moment it comes out for my new LG g3. I dont care what it looks like, I'm not posing around making a fashion statement, I'm requiring a tool that works all day every day without fail.
Going from 0.35mm to over 19mm is insane. I'd rather not carry a brick in my pocket, and thats almost as big as a real brick.
Personally I just want these companies to release something.. going on trips with stock battery is not fun :crying:
Ok, i think that my Moto G4 Plus battery is going down for good. I am planning on buying another one, and i started searching for a slightly bigger one. I found one for my Nexus 5, back in the day and it had a capacity of 2450 mAh instead of 2300.
Now i found one for this phone that is 3450 mAh. It is sold on Aliexpress on what it looks like an official store/seller from this Losoncoer brand. (???)
The capacity increase actually makes sense as it has a 15% increase from stock battery. My Nexus 5 enhanced battery had 7% increase and it was a smaller packaging, so i don't think it's THAT blatantly fake.
My only doubt is: is it stable enough? I don't plan to have this phone for many years yet, so a slightly less stable battery in the long time distance is ok to me if i can get a 15% more daily use NOW.
Have you guys heard of it? I couldn't find anything on google, let alone xda itself, but maybe i missed something.
Here is the link for the battery:

Once I bought battery for my Samsung galaxy s3 from other brand. Original battery was of 2100 mah but battery that I bought was of 2200 mah with same size. But the battery backup was actually less than original battery though it was of slightly higher capacity.
So if it cheap enough for you, you can just give it a try and share your experience. And it does not seems to be fake.
The "store" has less than 10 ratings...
There is a similar battery here too. They have misspelled the word "perfect" on the label.
I have bought several things on Alibaba. ALL of them had issues.
LE: On eBay I saw some so-called OE batteries, cheap, marked as "Engineering Sample". Those where not supposed to be sold, mfg date shows something like March 2016 or Dec 2016... basically old stock. Others don't even have a mfg date printed on them.
All Li-ion batteries start to "age" immediately after mfg, regardless if they are used or just shelved. I would stay away from those too.
Enjoy burning your house down...
Hey, the OP made me curious.
Since it is only $13 and since I have house insurance, I think I will buy one, just to test it
Well, I got mine today and I have replaced it. Seems OK for now, came with 56% charge, it charged fine. The box had a label with Production Date 01-22-2018, which is good (if true).
To remove the old battery I used a Torx #3 drive. I didn't re-apply the double-back sticky tape on back of the battery, I didn't have any and I don't see it's usefulness. Careful when "peeling" out the old battery, it "bends" very easy, it's mechanical resistance like a stronger putty, don't puncture it (when prying) under any circumstance!
Hmm.. I was actually looking for a new battery and was considering buying this.... after reading some of the comments, yes it seems it fits that definition of "too good to be true..."
If your high quality battery is called "Enhanced Business Batter" I wouldn't buy it. Batteries have a limit to their energy density and some cheap chinese firm that uses bing translator won't change that.
After a few days (two weeks) of testing, I appreciate that this new battery lasts about as long as my former 2 year old battery.
Well, $12 down the Chinese drain:
