I have purchased chargers and cables from this site before, its been around for a while, but they are having a sale apparently this week and I noticed that they were selling the original Samsung batteries for the Nexus S.
http://www.all4cellular.com/samsung-ab653850ca.html
Not sure if its straight from Samsung but the batteries are 1440mAh, which is the same as the ones Best Buy sent me using the Black Tie protection plan.
I know that the ones on samsung's battery say 1500mAh but maybe they are the same?
Anyways, I'm in for one. Its $5.95 with shipping of $2 total on any order or amount.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028065 You can find it on ebay for 4.94$. I've already ordered one to see how well it performs.
LE: Also, it ISN'T the original Nexus S battery. That one has 1500 mAh. This one has 1440. But, in theory, it's still made by Samsung, so it's not a replica.

It's the same label of the cheapo batteries/charger I've used for my n7000 and mytouch 4g.
They're nothing to get excited about, but for the price, you can't complain.
The shipping takes FOREVER though, so I'd suggest ordering immediately if you want them.
You'll still probably get your phone long before you get the batteries.
3100 mah battery or not, some games just eat your battery.

Yep, anker is the best quality/price, for 13€ you can get a battery with at least 85% of the claimed size, better than mugen.
looks good
Good find

Anybody purchased this item from ebay? The quote is taken from the ebay listing link posted by the OP. Just be careful when ordering from ebay. I'm sure its probably just a typo from the seller, but ya never know which item he means to ship.
The ebay url youve put there is not for batteries for the note II. The note II takes a 3100mah battery your url is for 1980mah batteries but I have seen some on ebay that are for the note II. I had ebay replacement batteries and charger for my note and I have no complaints. I will be buying some later today or tomorrow.

Got them in the mail - typical hong kong shipping of 2 weeks.
They are exactly the same nature as the Note 1 batteries of similar look/brand.
They don't hold nearly as much charge as the stock battery. But bang/buck, they do quite well.
After gaming for a while (several hours) I was actually startled to see a low battery warning.
That isn't so much of a slam on these batteries, as it is a compliment to the OEM battery.
I think having these batteries as backups is perfectly fine. I'd still use the OEM as a daily driver though.

Hello!
I am thinking of ordering this battery
http://www. ebay .co.uk/itm/P589-3500-mAh-Replacement-Battery-for-Samsung-N7100-Galaxy-Note-II-2-/170918618661?pt=UK_iPad_Tablet_Accessories&hash=item27cb8b2625&_uhb=1
any opinions ?
Hong Kong should call their auction site fakeBay. Bought several camera batteries in the past and well its clear they just stick an extra zero on whatever capacity they have. E.g.5000 mAh battery for note2 is really 500mAh.
Save ya pennies and buy from a reliable source.
Edit- nearly forgot, 1000 mAh AAA batteries for cordless phone held less charge than the knackered 500 mAh that came with the phones. BTA i think they were. Woeful.

I would avoid those no name chinese batteries on ebay until the Mugen or Anker ones come out.
I was thinking of buying a higher capacity battery for my vivid, but I don't want to accidentally buy garbage.
Anyone try out any replacement batteries? What is the highest capacity battery you can get without having to replace the back?
Get a mugen battery those are great
Sent from my PACMAN HTC Raider on the Rogers Wireless Network
Am I better off buying the OEM replacement battery, or getting one of the extended batteries, or just a handful of the cheap crappy ones for the same price online? My battery is struggling to make it 6 hours with light use. Thanks!
Get the mugen. Those 12 dollar ones on eBay are cheap Chinese knockoffs. I bought some and they couldn't even outlast the stock and they are made from expired power cells

Thanks for the input, I assumed those 12 dollar ones were garbage. $45 for the 1700 and $90 for the 3400 are kind of pricy (although I do understand you get what you pay for). Does the 1700 fit comfortably with the original battery cover? I got one of the cheaper extended batteries about a year ago but the cover was such garbage I returned it pretty quickly.
I bought these batteries off alibaba for $14 shipped.
Not sure how I tell if they are real or not. They are oem.
Anyone tries these? They look identical.
Any tests I can try?
Thanks

You may test them with Nova Battery tester.

You got two for $14? You can guess where I'm going with this Alibaba is a market gathering of HK retailers where they don't sell any brand names. Anything labeled as brand name is a knock off. Now, that doesn't mean these are not fully functioning, just that some of the test we run on ebay/cheap batteries turned out to show 2000 mAh capacity instead of advertised 3100/3500/4200. Nova Battery Tester measurement is not accurate, I have tried it numerous times. It's great to run stress test to discharge the battery or relative comparison test between two batteries (which you can try to run with your stock battery to see the mAh reading, and then this other battery to find out it's reading). To get true capacity you will need an external hardware battery tester. Don't want to discourage you, the one you got might actually be 3100 mAh, but I highly doubt these are genuine Samsung considering you got that from HK retailer who sells it in bulk or individually on Alibaba marketplace.
I probably going to sound like a broken record, but when it comes to batteries - go with Anker. Their 3100 mAh was tested to be actually 3250 mAh, and you can get 2 of these batteries and a fast wall charger for about $23 on amazon, although you have to check with international option for your shipment to Australia.
See if it has a water sticker on it, most the fakes didn't have one

They are OEM copies. OEM should mean an authentic item direct from the original equipment manufacturer. Mainland China will call anything OEM now.
Nothing from Alibaba is genuine.
The best test is try to send it to Samsung for a replacement under warranty. See if you get one back.
Most of the fake batteries do have the water sticker. It's the authentic remanufactured ones that don't always have them.
Anyone know where to get original note 2 batteries? I've been reading a lot about after market batteries swelling, over heating and even frying phones.
Seems Samsung site doesn't sell it anymore?
Much appreciated!

Best buy sells the charger + battery that is the same as the Samsung website one. $39.99 includes charger and 1 battery.

I've bought from them before - excellent prices and genuine items
http://www.wirelessground.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-ii-battery.html
They also sell the above product, but just remember the charger that comes with that item is 700 mAh charger as opposed to the 2A one included with the note 2
Much appreciated everyone!
I'm looking for a replacement battery for my 910T. I remember Samsung had a battery and external charger for the spare battery...?
Anyway, wondering if anyone can suggest a good place (price) for a genuine Samsung battery.
Thanks in advance.

This is probably the last genuine battery available.

After these are gone all the rest found on will either be questionable copies or third party ones like Anker.

I tried waiting at Samsung web site for over 3 weeks for a battery, with no response, I have 2 note 4, black and white for me and my wife...
my 4 older Samsung batteries and 2 charger kits and they don't hold a charge anymore, from about 10 - 15 percent left, they shut down...
I just bought anker batteries on ebay with a charger for about $31, they hold a charge to 1%.. about 2 weeks ago.
they are lasting much better than the samsungs. and buying Samsung batteries on ebay or amazon.. u might be getting these fake batteries that don't last..
I've always gone Amazon. They were OEM batteries. I always check the feedback to make sure they aren't pulling a bait and switch.

The ones on Amazon are 99% fake knock offs which risk fire. Any story you have read online about a phone catching fire is usually either a result of a cheap knock off battery or adapter.
The only two places that have Note 4 batteries still are 100% legit.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB-BN910BBUSTA
and the Best Buy kit I posted earlier in the thread. Anywhere else is questionable.
If a big box store gets them like B & H they will be legit too.
Amazon's inventory has been proven to be compromised. Several have posted online about their batteries even "shipped and sold by amazon" had been clones.
In case you didnt know this happens often on Amazon. The SD Card market and perfume market on Amazon even from Amazon is also like this.
I'm using the Zerolemon 10000mah battery, also if there is a Batteries+ they stock standard replacement batteries for most phones.
Im very happy with Anker bought on Amazon.

I definitely recommend the anker batteries. You can buy them on Amazon.

Hey DeeXii, really appreciate your information. But the Samsug page directs you to purchase it from Amazon. It says it is shipped and sold by Amazon too. Do you think this one is legit as long as it is sold by Amazon? Cause it is heck of a lot cheaper than the BestBuy one...

I would recommend the one from Anker, same capacity as OEM from a reputable brand that makes batteries. It also comes with 18 month warranty and a bit cheaper than OEM one. If you still want the OEM one make sure it is shipped and sold by Amazon.com and you should be fine.
I ordered 2 anker and a external charger on eBay for $35
I hope they're real.

1 battery can last me one day, sometimes down to 30 percent, depends on what I am doing, other times, down to 20 and under.. but it makes the day, then I swap and use the other, but only when it drains to 1 2 or 3...
they are better than all these knock off, I think I paid $31.. but they are better than all my old ones put together, wait till my wife come back from vacation, she will definitely take 1, then I will have 4 old batteries. then I have to test the old batteries and anything that shuts down from 20 or 15 percent is getting retired, junked out..
maybe I will have to buy another set to be happy..

I just Re-read your post, you did say that. Well I got (hopefully) the same thing, I think I paid $32 to be exact. Fingers crossed.
I'm waiting on these in the mail. I wonder if they will be good? Ebay item 201375415018 How would I tell if they are fakes?
I'm waiting for my anker package with 2 batteries and an external charger myself.
I read in another thread, they blame the quick charge 2.0 puck for damaging the batteries. Saying the increase voltage pushed to the battery for fast charging is what kills the life of the battery.
So my question is, those who have replaced Samsung with aftermarket batteries, are you still charging at night with the Samsung qc2.0? Or just using a 1amp or 2amp charger?
Help appreciated.
Mostly use the old 2A charger to prolong battery longevity. Need a quick boost? Adaptive fast charger or turbo charger from moto.
I unlocked your mum's bootloader.
Well I disabled fast charge option on the phone so it should be charging at a "normal" rate now and not the high voltage charging.
So far these anker batteries seem excellent, at least compared to my very degraded original samsung batteries. A deal for 2 Batts and a external charger Imho.
The more I use regular charging, my battery appears to improve and return to normal. All this only supports my reservation towards devices with sealed batteries.
