It looks kinda cool, but once I started reading I lost faith...
"This product is suitable for Samsung Galaxy Note. In addition to being a super battery life of portable back-up battery pack, you can also be used as the Samsung Galaxy Note protective cover, bring to your iPad strong momentum and excellent console protection."
Looks good if you buy it post a review I'm curious to know if its good or not.

Im confused. Do you have to already own the ipad or does it come with one? If it doesn't come with one can I use the "strong momentum and excellent console protection" on a different device, or perhaps other non-related items such as my cat?
I think I might buy that. Slimmer than the mugen, and it doubles as a portable charger or extender for 35 bucks.
I see one problem with it though, can't take the stylus out with the phone in it.

Actuall i think you can. If you look at the corner there appears to be a gap there. I bet thats an opening to access the s-pen. I went with the super thick super cheap extended battery. $8 for a batter that lasts me a couple days is nice. If you, or anyone else for that matter, gets this please take some pictures for us so we know what we're dealing with in thickness and effectivness. And and let me know if it helps you ipad out any.

I dunno, if you look at picture 4 and 7, it shows the word "IN". 4 looks like where the stylus would be, but on picture 7 its the same spot on the phone just flipped and it shows the USB port for charging it.
Looks like a good alternative for $35. Total charge capacity would be 5500 mAh, assuming all 3000 mAh of the Brando battery can be transferred to the phone. That would be about the same as the Mugen 5400 mAh extended battery.

Ahah...im pretty sure those photos were added or my browser choked and didnt load them last time as I only saw the first photo, and thats why i asked for more pics. I like that it has a kick stand and isnt too thick. I may get one when the price comes down some and if the reviews indicate they are worth buying.
---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------
also this sounds like a real PITA:
* Please Charge the Battery Case before Usage.
* Please Charge the Battery Case and Samsung Galaxy Note Separately. (Do Not Charge the Battery Case and Samsung Galaxy NoteAt the Same Time)

It's not a passthrough, so the placement doesnt matter much. The thickness will prevent it from being used it most/all docks. According to the site you must take this off the phone in order to charge it or the phone. I do tons of supplemental charging on and off through the day that this is absurd and out of the question for me. But if you find yourself only charging at night only then this is not likely to be a big issue for you, only you will need to have a second charger at your night stand to charge them both.
see i plug mine in a lot through the day as well... would be nice to see one with pass though charging as well.
Looks cool but I think it would add to much weight and bulk.
not for At&t i717 note?!?
I think the pic is of the unbranded note and it is different enough to not fit at&t model.
I purchased a miikey external 5200 mah(? Not sure of #, but close) and it is like having 3 extra batteries without turning off phone to change out.
cost was: orig. $89.95, i hit a nice sale and got it for $50.oo purchased at at&t store in central nj!
the only thing it is not good for is if you need power when connected to a pc.
my original battery either needs calibration after rooting or i have a defective battery. so, i use this till i can figure out what is going on. prolly needs calibration.

Energizer partnered up with Xpal Power and came out with a fantastic product that I have been using for almost a year.
As a matter of fact I recently went and bought a second one because my HTC Amaze
needs a lot of energy. And I do a lot of things on my phone. You can recharge this device
up to 500 times. AND it powers 2 devices at the same time. So now you can charge 2 phones,
a phone and an iPod, or whatever at the same time.
The price of this product is around $60 and IS WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!
If the price is too steep for you, then check out their other model that charges only 1 device at a time.
I got mine from Target.
This device is called the Energizer Energi To Go XP4001.
More details can be viewed HERE.
What kind of person would I be if I didn't post pictures..... so here they are....
1. Fits in the palm of my hand just right. In a guy's hands it might be a bit smaller.

Duracell makes one thats a little bigger than an ipod nano was $20 at the grocery store of all places It only has one usb. & only a 1200mah battery but it takes mine from dead to %60 so if you just need a boost mid day its perfect. Fits in that tiny second pocket in the front pocket of you jeans. That thing she had was a beast and i dont have a man purse & you can just use the stock cable no little attachments to loose. Do-Do brown my girlfriend looked over my shoulder & was like wtf is on her nails. Lol, i said either a very unique color or a bad bathroom experience. Ok sorry im done that wasn't very nice, it was just funny. To each his or i mean her own.

I'm tired of stock pink nails thank you very much.... I like to think outside the box at times.... and I want my charger to take me from 0-100 ... not to 60.... and my phone can charge 0-100 ... 2 times.... that's what I like about the charger.... and I got 2 of them chargers.... so I can charge my phone 4 times without needing a plug.... great for road trips or charging in my back pocket when I'm at work standing on my feet ..... .... and those are NOT DOO-DOO brown either...
I have a D30 power case from tmo, gives me back like 80% of the actual battery power since it's a 1500mah battery, fits snugly on the phone, so it isn't really out of place while charging and well I get to do whatever it was I was doing while getting a charge, cost about 60 too I think, I got mine for free with the phone though, lol.

I got the same one, I think. I haven't used it on ICS cuz when I was on GB my phone would get random reboots after using it. Kind of annoying. You seen anything like that?

Yup
I'm wary of these devices as to how much CURRENT they provide for charging. Have you measured the charging current?
I was interested in reviewing the Anker Astro3 which appears to give a typical phone 4-5 charge cycles, but the distributor turned me down. Perhaps someone here with deep pockets will report on one....
P.S. Nice avatar, Mz. What kinda charge does THAT handheld take?

Honestly Chomejob I can sit here and make up crap all day.... but in reality I honestly do not know. All I know is that it charges 2 devices at the same time. I charge 1 at a time simply because I only bought it for 1 device. So I get 2 charges out of 1 battery for my phone. And I have 2 of these batteries. So technically I get 4 charges.
Thank you for the compliment. That pic is from 2 years ago. I just love the gun!
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.

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.
Does anyone know if Samsung is going to be putting out an official extended battery for the Galaxy S3? I don't trust the cheap "extended" third party batteries that are likely relabeled standard sizes with cheap cells, considering they're the exact same size, yet claim 1000+ mAh over the standard.
They did it for the Galaxy Nexus on Verizon, but I have no idea when that battery came out in comparison to the Galaxy Nexus's launch.
Any suggestions?
I just picked up the Hyperion extended battery and back cover.
first initial charge:
Almost 42 hours of use.
Just so you know, I loaded my s3 with as much load as I could:
Turned off auto bright set screen just past middle
Engaged all my "live" apps that Galway update, including eBay, tapatalk, xda pre., etc.
Turned on WiFi, blue tooth, data, and every possible battery trainer I could think of and put all my emails to push.
I you tubed the hell out of it, looked at some porn vids, played the greatest game ever made for android as much as possible, basically tried to get to zero as fast as possible.
42+ hours and then it went time red.
Hyperion is a very reliable battery.
Something else weird:
My WiFi signal was stronger.
Could be a placebo thing but I will report back again Friday, as I need to charge for 8 hours again. It is suggested to drain to red and charge fir 8 hours straight a few times.
Hyperion ftw !
Fyi 4000 ma.
Lol I even painted the battery cover world rally blue to match my scooby

Nice car, I have a black '04. :good:
Do you have (or could you please post) a picture of the phone with the extended case sitting on a flat surface? I'm curious how much it makes the phone stick up. Also, have you come across any (protective) cases for extended battery backs?
that doesn't look any thicker than my epic did.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I'll try to post up some comparison pics today later on
Also have not looked around for extended cases but I think I have seen some.
OK so here's some comparison pics.
I used my htc rezound as something to compare it with. I think for some this at be to much, but the case actually makes the phone more ergonomical.
I loved the build of my amaze (resounds cousin) so for me the thickness isn't an issue.

Another inquiry... Did you ever come across a thin phone case that was compatible with the extended battery cover?
Btw thanks for the info on the battery and accompanying photos.
Edit: ahhh never mind. I missed the post where you said that you have not looked for a case.
"So what you want me to do 'bout that?"
Link to said extended battery? Is it for the Att lte or international SG3 ??

Need to keep an eye on this thread. I know I will be looking for an extended life batter at some time.

Just eBay it. Hyperion hasvtheir own account and (another reason I buy from them) they are in Michigan. Nice not to have to buy from China.
I paid 16$ for the battery and cover.
I think the buy it now was like 20$
I thought I saw cases for extended batteries on eBay but not sure.
I'm gonna 're do my back cover and clear cote it and see how I feel about it. I like the naked feel. I may just do a full invisible body armor or something.
Also I previously contacted andida they said extended batteries for the gs3 would be out soon and it appears they are on eBay ad of yesterday.
I may buy one just for comparison.
I think the Andida was 4500 as opposed to this one being like 4100ma or something.
Edit: just looked at the battery... made in China....lol. ah well. Still a good product.

If you do end up finding a case that will protect the phone well and fits the extended battery then please post a link. I'm not going to buy an extended battery until I can buy a case for it. I have that bad habit of periodically dropping things. :banghead:

I would very much appreciate that. Since the S3 is so thin already, I was thinking about getting an extended battery.
That was my thought too. I never thought I'd say this, but it might actually be too thin. I also ordered a Seidio Active w/kickstand case, but that won't fit the extended battery.
Edit: A bit of new info I just found, Mugen is planning a 4600mAh battery w/cover and a protective case for it. They just recently released a 2300mAh battery, but the big one isn't out quite yet.
https://www.facebook.com/MugenPowerBatteries
I have had great experiences with Seidio's extended batteries. I emailed them asking if they intend to make one for the G3. They replied and confirm that they will make one but would not give me any eta on it.
I just bought a Anker battery rated @ 2200mAh.. I prefer swapping batteries vs. having a thicker and heavier phone. I have used Anker with the sensation and the amaze. never let me down.

I had the Power brand from them for my EVO 4G. That thing ran all day with me playing games from time to time and playing on the internet. I think I might have went to the red maybe 3 or 4 times with that thing and it was late at night. I will be keeping an eye out for it from them.
One thing about the Seidio is their "soft coat" battery door. Unlike the oem cover which I find slippery, this soft coat gives a slight resistance.
I am looking to buy the seidio active with kickstand. This Commuter is too slippery! If I were to buy it, could I reasonably expect that seidio's eventual extended battery will fit in it?

I received this extended battery case from Anker this past Thursday.... and have been putting it through the tests. And I have to say that I LOVE IT! I use the hell out of my new Note 3, and yes I was getting wonderful battery use of of it, it still didn't quite make it through the day. That's where my Anker 6400mAh Extended battery kicks in.
Most of you who read this will agree... you micro-manage and tweak your battery setting on your devices. I did it on my S4 and now I found myself doing it with my Note 3. But using this new extended battery, I do not have to anymore. I still charge my device everynight, I just find that I don't have to worry about finding a charge outlet late in the day.
I did not do any scientific tests... but I ran this over the weekend without charging, with moderate to heavy use, and I got roughly 26 hours use until I hit 20%. That's using it heavy on Saturday all day (shooting photos, phone, game play). Went to bed without charging. Then using it yesterday for all day. Wataching my NFL app, and checking fantasy football scores all day.
Build quality is SOLID. I have had Anker batteries on all my smartphones, and they are built great. They are juiced as advertised.
The extended cover fits tight, and I still maintain access to all the posts. It doubles the width (thickness of the phone) but its not terrible in the hand. BIGGEST complaint..... the super glossy back! It is "slick" (slippery), and it is a HUGE fingerprint magnet!!!
I highly recommend this case to all you power users!

Did you happen to test out NFC by chance? Also, I wonder how likely it would be to use an extended Anker with the wireless charging mod. (Thinking out loud)
I'm curious how you came up with the "Google Wallet Capable" part?
Currently, Google wallet works with the Note 3, but you can't apparently use the touch payment part because Google Wallet has no access to the secure element in the phone (it is blocked from the app).
Please post more pics with the phone and the battery on .
Thanks

Wataching my NFL app, and checking fantasy football scores all day.
Build quality is SOLID. I have had Anker batteries on all my smartphones, and they are built great. They are juiced as advertised.
The extended cover fits tight, and I still maintain access to all the posts. It doubles the width (thickness of the phone) but its not terrible in the hand. BIGGEST complaint..... the super glossy back! It is "slick" (slippery), and it is a HUGE fingerprint magnet!!!
I highly recommend this case to all you power users!

I will try to get more pics... I can only take them with my Note 3... so its hard to do with the case on! LOL
I'm curious how you came up with the "Google Wallet Capable" part?
Currently, Google wallet works with the Note 3, but you can't apparently use the touch payment part because Google Wallet has no access to the secure element in the phone (it is blocked from the app).

I don't think I mentioned anything about Google Wallet in my review. I have no idea if this case will work with that or not... I did not test it.
Your thread is titled nfc Google wallet capable?
Also does the phone bulge a bit with this battery? some users with the zero lemon say that the battery did cause some bulge, what abt this? Did you try any slim cases on with this?

What's the point when the phone charges to 50% in 30 mins?

When your phone is almost dead and there is no plug or you are traveling and need to charge it. Simple.

This was my thought, if this case is more expensive than a Car Dash charge it'd be pointless for me! The battery life on this phone is just insane as it is, got 6hours SOT yesterday, I've NEVER gotten anything past 3/3.5 hours before.

They just look so ugly too, to put a huge bulky case on a phone which has gotten very nice and slim...eek!
What they didn't tell you is that their plan is NOT to make a case for the OP5.
Just say'n.

People that are out all day and evening but also want to use their phone normally. You might go to work, head out that evening, have a few drinks, crash at a friends and go direct to work. They have their uses, people that go camping also get good use from them as well as battery packs.
I have the one for the 3/t. It's huge but it's useful for long flights. The fact it works as a power bank was also useful to charge my buddy's phone too.

It's not rocket science is it? Lol.. The moor accessories, the moor better I say!
Hey. When is that? Can you ship one to me in India please? my email is joy (a) srinjoysen (.) com
I wonder if this actually is going happen? Yeah the battery last long enough but who would complain about more juice?
I had one for my S7 Edge. Problem with this case is USB OTG function won't work anymore. Have to remove the case.

We are waiting for this battery case... i'm waiting for like 2/3 months i guess, when you said the same thing to me on twitter... Do something like iphone 7, with 5k mAh, and slim.
In 2 days after the announce of iphone you guys put the case to sell... Come on, more you guys delay, less we'll buy it!
And please, try to sell using Ebay, amazon can't delivery to Brazil anymore e_e.
*Waiting for the case*
Well I happen to add the Amazon place holder on my wishlist and then accidently clicked on it today and it said available!. So, I just ordered one. Anyone know when this first became available to buy? Anyone have one? I hated the one for the nexus 5 with a passion, but I'll give it another shot for the rare times i need it.

Less than 2 weeks ago. Have been waiting for someone to post reviews and videos. Please do post as many photos as possible. Want to know if headphone jack requires an extra dongle for reach. If that's the case it's not for me
Just so you know, it costs $59.99 on Zerolemon's site with a 10% disc if you use THANKYOU10. I dont know how much you paid for it. It's not a referral code or anything.

so i use that itty bitty powerpack on my keychain or the big ass powerbank in my backpack
Okay got it today. Here are as many angles as I could think of that would be helpful and I compared the size with a nexus 4 and an iPhone 5s. I've tried 3 different headphones and all connected without any problems (the slot is huge). However, i wouldn't use one with an L shaped connection. It was very difficult to remove. Straight ones were no problem. The speaker grills are kind of nice. Holding the phone in landscape doesn't block the sound this way. Although I'm not sure how long you could hold it. It's heavy as hell! I can't comment on battery life of course anytime soon, but if there's any other questions let me know.

Well give it like a week trail , and see how it goes, if it works out well for you , though i'm wondering if it gets warm , etc if it's in your pocket while giving it charging power and so on. There has to be some kind of that going on to keep it up to 100%, otherwise if it works out well for you, i will buy it as well.
