[Ongoing Review] 1400mAh Anker Battery for Samsung Galaxy Ace

Today I received my new Anker 1400mAh battery for Samsung Galaxy Ace from Amazon. I used Prime and got it in less than 24 hours.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B005WFJ0W2/ref=redir_mdp_mobile
Current Update (Newest First):
Took phone with me to see the Olympics. The battery survived 16h with lots of camera use and constant 3G access (Except in the tube.)
Battery is great! I'd highly recommend it!
Really impressed with the battery! Lasts all day! Full write-up coming soon.
Been testing for 5 hours now. Battery seems to be holding up! Deep sleep in CM9 is prob helping.
Fully Charged! Test drive this morning!
Now discharged - charging...
Anker Battery charged - is now discharging...
New Anker battery is charging...
Flashed CM9 and OOM changer. Taken out stock battery. Stats wiped.
What I did:
Wiped my phone
I did a clean install of the latest version of Maclaw's CM9 - Beta 9
Installed the OOM priority changer
Wiped battery stats
Charged Anker battery to 100%
Discharged fully
Recharged fully again
Installed JuiceDefender Ultimate (Without AOSP helper as it is incompatable with CM9)
Review:
Build quality of the battery is similar to stock Samsung battery.
Charge time is similar to stock.
Will be testing it out this morning. Will report back later.

Eagerly awaiting the results...I have and Anker 5600mah external battery and it is high quality so I expect this is of the same high quality, keep us posted and good luck with testing

waw very nice

Can you provide a link to page where you bought?

Why should we take 1400mAh battery , we already have 1350mAh battery , so go for atleast 2000mAh battery

2000mAh batteries for Ace are fake. Anker is a trusted brand.

What about the 1500mAh ones, did you see the topic where I posted my results?
I'm interested in this Anker battery though even though it's only 50mAh more than the default battery, since it's apparently a trusted brand wheras the 1500mAh battery I got seems to be unbranded, but from my testing results it did give more power, but i'm worried about how long it will last before it starts draining faster and faster due to it being unbranded, wheras the Anker one, being a reputable brand, i'm assuming would have just as good build quality as the Samsung one?
Are you going to post your results soon?

Thanks! I am gonna buy this, usaully when I listen music, battery is dead in 2/3 hours.

I have this for my S2 I9100. Best battery ever.
Going to buy for my ace as well.

[Q] My SGS is extremely draining, battery weak? [cm10, sema2.5]

Hey people,
I have an Galaxy S i9000 wich is about 2-3 years old.
Since a year my battery is draining a little fast, but since a month its sick and frustrating because it last -+3 hours when using whatsapp/music 70% of the time (7 hours with less use).
Thats not nice, and I thought my battery could getting weaker becaue my phone is almost 3 years old*.
ROM: Cyanogenmod 10, 4.1.2
Kernel: Semaphore 2.5, I9000XXJVT
I don't think it's just the rom, Android 4.0 was draining also (but still better battery life in comparisation with 4.1.2...)
Now my question is, do you think purchase a new battery for the I9000 will solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
lajostkm

It seems that the problem is the battery itself, i would try to replace it

Had the same case as you (even same rom and kernel) and i changed the battery... now it's a lot better with almost 24hrs of battery use between one charge to another

It's possible your battery has degraded but you can install the Better Battery Stats app to get a better idea of what is eating so much battery.

Thank you, I will purchase a new battery soon. One more question, are the smartphone batteries (SKU: 59974) from DealExtreme good? I mean, this is from a Chinese wholesale site (made in China) so I'm not sure about good battery performance.

New Battrty for Ace

So After using my stock battery for 3 years, I thought it was high time and should be buying a battery.....
My Analysis :-
On Stock Rom, it is perfect and I use Battery Extender Kernel andgives me about 4 days of medium usage
On Cm7 Roms it gives me abt 2 days with medium usage
I dint try on Cm9 and Cm10.1 but I hope that it wud be lower that CM7
I bought it at RS 500 from Samsung Retail Store and it is stock 1350 MaH battery and I am really Happy with it

how much is the power rating of stock ace battery ? 1200mah ?

It is 1350 MaH and it works fine enough

where did u buy that and how much cost?

Is there any "working" battery for the ace out there with more than 1350mah? My battery lasts 1-2 minutes with screen on,I think it's pretty damaged xD
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app

I took a battery 2100 MaH, on ebay. I don't know if it's a real 2100 MaH battery, but, i'm sure that the battery is 2x more long ! I can use my phone during 5-6 days.

It is a pretty old thread, anyway... Samsung is using very good batteries, if you want to go on a budget buy a third party battery, some are a near the same as the samsung only less epensive BUT it will not be of a higher capacity than the original... why ? Because the "energie density" of the Samsung batteries is certainly one of the best on the market. Meaning that a third party company is not able to create, within the same "enveloppe", "sized space" a battery with a higher capacity. That is simple as that. (with the same technology of course).
Of course after many years you can replace an old battery with one that can be of a higher capacity .. cause the technology has evolved. (not always possible)

Battery not last longing.
I bought new original samsung battery 6 months before, but now its not giving me desirable output. It only lasts a whole day only if data is not connected whole time and only few number of calls are made or attended. I am frustated now. Need help.

Try ERD battery. Is good and decent. Its Indian battery and price about 250. Find in Google.

High batter drain after 1.5 years of usage , what do you recommend guys ?

i've bought my galaxy note a year and a half ago , i am facing a high battery drain those days , i thought of buying a new batter from amazon there is this one : http://www.amazon.com/2700mAh-GT-N7...371&sr=8-3&keywords=galaxy+note+n7000+battery
and that one : http://www.amazon.com/Onite-2750mAh...372&sr=8-7&keywords=galaxy+note+n7000+battery
what do you recommend guys ?​

I had changed my battery after a year, and noticed a visible improvement. I think the mobile batteries need to be replaced every 1-1.5 years for optimal usage, its a shame everyone is offering non-replaceable batteries. Thank god Samsung is yet providing high end phones with user replaceable batteries.. I would suggest with sticking with Samsung OEM batteries.

If you got a nokia phone better get a new phone. but you got our love note then get a new battery

New battery = amazing new life for my Nexus 5!

(cross posted to Nexus 5 subreddit)
So I've had my N5 since it was first available (ordered it the first day it was on Google Play). Over the last 6 months or so, I've had absolutely atrocious battery life, which I attributed to the upgrade to Android 5. Most recently, the battery life has been so bad that I could be at 98% and after 10 or 15 minutes of playing a game with GPU usage, the phone just shut down. After a reboot, the phone said my battery was at 1%. Then I'd keep the phone off, leave it for 20 or 30 minutes and when I turned it on again, it told me the battery was at 40%. Super strange.
Long story short, I decided that my battery had some real problems. So I took a chance and ordered what looked like an ok battery replacement off of Amazon (link below) as well as some tools from iFixit.com (link below) and decided I was going to try to install a new battery.
Well, it's been about a week since I did the battery replacement (link below to the YouTube video that was helpful) and my phone feels like a brand new device. I get a real, full-day use of the phone now, which for me is having it on and using maps, Gmail, texting, Chrome, Facebook, Play Music, and a few other key apps. Some games here and there. I also obviously have the phone off during the day when I don't need it. Before the battery replacement, my phone could easily be dead with a mix of screen on and off time in 2 hours or less. Now I'm getting 13-14 hours easily. Really amazing.
So I thought this was important enough to share with everyone. If you're in the same boat that I was, you might give this a shot too. Here's everything you need to do what I did:
BATTERY (ships from Chicago, NOT China! this was key!): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LD7S6YQ
iFIXIT TOOLS (if you don't already have these): https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Tools/Plastic-Opening-Tools/IF145-000-1
YOUTUBE TUTORIAL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlmKLfgUtBQ
Here's some additional info about my setup that may be helpful: ROM: Cataclysm latest stable build (built off 5.1) KERNEL: Elemental X 2.11. Also using Greenify to hibernate unnecessary background apps
Feel free to ask any other questions. I'm really pleased with how things have gone with this new battery (at least for this first week, which I know is not tons of time). For the moment, it feels like I have a brand new phone!

I was just starting to look for a replacement for my N5. This one doesn't get the greatest of reviews. I've wasted $13.50 on worse though. You still recommend it?

I do! Granted, I've had this for just about a week so it's not the best assessment of long term performance but the difference between the dead stock battery I had and this new one is night and day. I can go all day with this new one. I could barely go an hour with the old one before it shut off. Worth a shot -- and to your point it's only $13.50.

Great thread!
But I think my battery still no dead, can get 3.5 hours of SOT with like near to 2 hours gaming, and it can still standby for at most whole days with such usage
Now in stock 5.1 with elementalX kernel

ONLY fresh year battery to buy
I hope for a long battery manufacturing. Unfortunately, the design of batteries is that they are prone to aging. Even if they are in a store, they begin to lose capacitance over time. It is necessary to carefully examine what year battery you want to buy

Hmm, also considering replacing my battery...
One day my phone was going haywire and I took it apart (easier than I thought) replugged the battery cord and worked fine after that.
Probably anal but right when I unplugged my phone from the charger just now it went from 100% -> 99% instantly.. dun dun dun! lol I've had my phone since December 2013 so yeah you can tell how long I've had my phone for! haha

I ordered one from etradesupply that will arrive tomorrow. I hope it has a fairly recent manufacturing date and isn't some extra stock from 2013. I know I am paying more due to shipping but buying batteries on ebay makes me so nervous about fakes and the quality. At least it looks super easy to swap out.

Coincidentally, I came to the same conclusion yesterday and ordered a new battery. It appears to be something of a minefield and you can pay between £8 and £30 for what seems to be the same battery!
In the end, I went with a mid-price battery from a reputable seller and hopefully all will be well...quite excited for it to arrive

My new battery just arrived today! I'll get it fitted and update with how it is. I've got some screens of battery life at the moment. Hopefully it improves

My etradesupply battery arrived yesterday. It looks exactly like the stock battery and shipped from Texas. Manufacture date is September of 2014... Can't remember the exact date but it for sure september of 2014 which is older than I'd like but we'll see. It was at 47% charge which is about what it should be for storage.
I haven't had a chance to do a full cycle yet. I just charged it to 100% once so far. My screen on time is 2 hours 15 minutes with 34% battery left. I don't do anything special to conserve battery and use automatic brightness set to 50% or whatever stock is. That's a mix of games and browsing.
I am not sure if a new battery has to go through a full cycle to get calibrated or anything like that. I've read laptops should be drained completely once in awhile (not often) to recalibrate something with how the battery life is measured. I feel battery life is better than the battery it replaced so far which is what matters to me. If I can get 3+ hours SOT consistently I'll be happy. I was getting down to around 2 hours SOT on my old battery.

I've been contemplating getting a new battery for a while. I have a launch week device so my battery is sitting around 18 months old. I'm not getting terrible battery life but it's not as good as it was either. My usage patterns have changed since then and I also keep a lot of apps installed and have everything turned on as opposed to when I first had the device I had a script remove most everything from the phone and kept most things turned off. I'd say an average work day I'll see 2-2 1/2 hours screen on time with about 1 1/2-2hours bluetooth music playback. I'm looking for a charger around 6pm when I get home.

i see you're in the US so not sure if I'll be of much help. I ordered off ebay, just checked to make sure there was plenty of feedback for the battery. Just using up the battery of my current one so will change tonight and hopefully update tomorrow!

Good to hear OP! I always look forma back up bstteryied con amsozn

Just my luck. I get the one battery that doesn't charge ? have to wait on a replacement now

Every one knows batteries need to empty and fill a good few times to reach peak holding. I replaced mine with a genuine OEM, from Amazon, and it took a good few days then it made a huge difference longevity. Never buy cheap batteries. They are fake and can't be told from the real thing until you use it AND findout. Go by the reviews and who is selling

Battery Replacement in India
Where can I get the battery in India. My battery too draining like hell..
Can anyone suggest where I can get battery in India.. Online website is fine

I have my old battery replace at the official LG service center here in Manila and all i can say is that my 5's battery life is just like brand new. After a year with the old battery, sot max is just 1.5 hours, after the replacement, 4.5 hours.
