I bought one just for that reason, instead of having 1 battery, I'll soon have 3!

i bought this about a month ago and i love it. The most ive used in one day was two batteries and i just leave the extra in the car. Alot of peace of mind when you know you have 2.5+ days of battery

Thanks for the post. I just ordered mine. What a great deal. This ups the resale value of the phone too, when you throw in 2 extra batteries and an extra charger.

I bought this back in October and love it. The batteries don't seem to last *quite* as long as the stock, but pretty close. And they're still doing just fine, 6-7 months later. I love the charger - you can use it to charge the battery and the phone simultaneously. Very handy.

FANTASTIC! Just ordered mine.
I bought 2 batteries and a charger from that same company for my touch pro. The quality was excellent and just about as good as the OEM batteries. I wouldn't say they're 1500... more like 1300 like stock, but still. As stated above, I leave one fully charged in my car, and the either i just put in my pocket as a backup. To say that I'm a "power user" would be an understatement. I'd much rather carry an extra battery than have a bulky 3000+ mah battery bulking up my phone.
THANKS!!!

Here is thought it was a 21,500mah battery....dang....

I may just find an ebay listing with just the charger since I already bought the "2000mah" Andida and really don't need any extra batteries. Though that charger is just so cool and handy looking!!

thinking about it...
just curious, it doesnt look like this deal comes with a usb cord. is that correct? i would like to have an extra one. i still might go for it though. i am tired of always having this phone connected to the charger. i use wifi tethering quite a bit so the battery drains pretty quickly.
also, does the included charger work fine for the stock battery?
cheers,
ryan

Ordered mine on 4/20, shipped on 4/21 and still havent gotten it. I emailed themtoday about it.

As iviyth0s said it is shipping from Hong Kong. I have had stuff shipped from there. Bare minimum it will take 2 weeks. Normally 3 weeks. If it goes past 4 weeks then it got delayed in customs(or worse, lost) and then it is anyones guess when you will get it.

has anyone found these from a site other than eBay? I hate eBay with a Passion.

No, this is the one that was released at launch, this is the one that also causes the non-responsive screen issues on the Incredible.
I'm a bit peeved Incredible isn't getting any fancy docks like the Moto Droid got, and Seidio cancelled there desk/car/innotraveler docks.

why aren't they more readily available?

That i couldn't say because i have no idea
i just know that Verizon has done a poor job at marketing/supporting this phone. not only did they botch the launch there not even trying to get accessory support nor are they marketing it as much as they are Moto Droid

They r said to vamp up the marketing once the phone is back n stock. I have a friend who is a regional manager at vzw and he says as soon as they start shipping again the are going to have a huge push for this phone. He already has new window posters and a stock pile of t shirts for when try start shipping again. No point in advertising something that u don't have to sell n the first place right?

Well it seems ridiculous that my phone has a tv out function but no cable. The original Droid had car docks, home docks, and a wealth of other accessories. I feel like I've been forgotten about.

I feel like he's telling the truth and we will see some heavy advertising for our DInc. This is still a badass phone guys. I own a N1 and to me my DInc is better hands down.

I have this dock and its great! Like that it has the belt clip detachment. Yes you do have to take your case off to use it though but that takes all of 5 seconds. I havent experienced the grounding issues in this dock at all, think that was with those cheap universal styrofoam ones.

Nice Photoshop job by Samsung. They have the phone mounted with MicroUSB facing outwards on one of them.

is there a review online anywhere? I'd like now to know what its like before i buy. also can the dock stand horizontally?

M8 car mount/dock

Ok I know there is a lot of dock and mount out there that are universal, but I was looking for one that works perfectly for the M8.
The only dock that saw that looks really good, is the HTC dock, but I really don't want to pay the HTC price, so my question is, does anyone know of a dock or even just a mount that works as well as the HTC dock without having to pay the HTC price?

Why not get something more universal to use with any phone or any case? You can check out my sig link, just scroll down to car mount reviews, I have a ton of those. Personally, I would highly recommend Arkon Mobile Grip 2 since it's the most minimalistic and can also be converted to attach to a picture tripod. Plus, it has one of the best sticky grip base.

Because I don't think the third party mounts automatically switch the device into Car Mode when connected.

Brodit. You buy a piece for your car and a piece for your phone, so when you switch cars, you buy a new piece for your new car, and when you switch phones you buy a new piece for your new phone.
They're not cheap, but they're built to take a beating and they work for years and years.
Plus, swedish design, yet no EFFING allen key.

This was the email from March 26:
Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in ProClip products.
We are currently designing a holder for the HTC One (m8).
This design process generally takes between 4 and 6 weeks once the design team obtains the device, but can take longer depending on the device.
Once we have a custom holder available for your device we will send you an email with a link to the products.
It sounds like a very boilerplate response, so that must have been all the info he had at the time. My understanding is that ProClip is just Brodit's exclusive US and Canadian vendor.

The clip that fits in the car usually has glue strips, but often combine that with some sort of slip-in-between-the-seams stuff as well. Then you do screw the holder onto the clip, but that's probably not what you meant.
As for expensive... Yes, it gets expensive, but it's very good quality, which is worth it to me at least.
Oh, and here are the products. None of them are in stores yet, though.
http://www.brodit.com/productList.html?brand=HTC&model=One+(M8)&pn=prod

I have been using the same iBolt kit since my Galaxy S3. Since then I have used it on the Note 2, Galaxy S4, HTC One and my brand new M8. All worked great as I got the dock-launching plugs for both the Samsungs and the HTC. However I just discovered that if you use the long USB with audio cable designed for the sammy, it will charge the HTC (slowly) but won't launch the dock mode. Which is annoying. I had to pull my deck out to uninstall it, and replace it with a standard USB cable. Now it works like a champ! Though I do wish that HTC would do USB analog audio like Samsung. It made car-integration so much better (quality of sound wise) than over bluetooth.

They informed me too on 16th April per E-Mail. You can purchase it, but the delivery time is around 3-4 weeks. So you are both right.

You would think so, wouldn't you. But my active Brodit mount for a Nexus 4 had problems reliably making a power connection. The metal USB bit slipped down and away from the phone within its moulding.
Brodit could not supply spare parts!!.
I resorted to cutting the usb connector apart and using epoxy resin to put it back together again.
Got the HTC mount this time for my M8!

Repair parts? Couldn't they just ship you a new holder? Seems like a clear warranty issue. That is, if brodit has a warranty, I've never needed to find out, and in Norway our consumer laws are so strong warranty is almost never an issue.

How well does the suction? because one of the thing that i love about the htc mount is the way the suction is design. Does the suction only work on the glass or can it work on the dash as well?

I bought the iBolt xProDock Kit for HTC
I already had the iBolt for the One X+ (was specific for that one, the new one fits almost all htc phones) and it is perfect (now my wife uses it).
The suction works perfect and you can place it on the window screen or the dashboard. It also starts automaticaly the dock mode.y

I bought this a year ago for my GS4 and loved it: iMagnet. I wasn't sure the metal plate would work with the curved back of the M8, but I just bent it a little and it fits perfectly without scratching the device. I use Car Home Ultra and configured it to launch whenever my car's bluetooth connects to it. Works like a freaking charm

Anyone have the official dock yet? I know they're expensive but I'd still like to hear a review of them. Thanks

Extra Docking Station

Already lost my charging dock :crying: but they are not listed yet by Samsung like the ones they have for other Gear...
I wonder if only of the existing one would be compatible. If anyone find a source for these, update this thread or if someone can check the pin layout (with volt and amps) to do the DIY road.

Just happened to me...maybe the gear 2 or duo charging cradle will work?

I just checked the Samsung website and compared it to my charging cradle, the pins on the Gear 2/ Duo are misaligned compared to the Gear Live. Even if it snaps on, it won't make a connection. Might have to wait till they start shipping on the 7th.

I wish they launch extra docking station sooner. Its a really big need. I am afraid to lose the current as its so small !

I have zero 3D modeling experience and don't yet own a caliper to take measurements of the charger, but my idea was to just make a good stable base (like the G Watch's charger) and sculpt a dip in it for the stock charger to fit into along with a hole for the cord. Simple, but then you could snap the clips off of the charger to protect the watch.
