Why don't they charge $6 more and put the NFC antenna on these things? The batteries are great, but without NFC, going forward are going to lose my business.
Does anyone know where to buy these apart from Amazon (for non US buyers)

Mine came with a piece of crap NFC that didn't even work. I ended up using the one from the stock case and scotch taped it to the phone. Lol works just like the OEM backplate now. It only looks bad when you show off the battery.
Funny enough I've had four different backplates and the only two that worked were the OEM ones.

I seen them in black and white tonight listed on eBay. They look very similar to the original Samsung flip covers. I'm not sure about the quality though. They look good in the supplied pics, but you just never know.
I bought it from ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Brus...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item53ef678d0f
I must have been lucky cause it arrived in 6 days - overseas shipping Hong Kong to New Zealand
Overall the fit of the case is really good, fits as good as my oem one. Everything clicks into place.
The carbon fibre immitation weave looks good, its made up of plastic. It kinda reminds me of a wicker basket pattern.
The texture feels alot grippier than stock case and has a matte finish to it.
What about NFC? And does it come in other colors?

I saw this listed on EBay and now that I see what it looks like installed, I may get one myself. I'll bet it would look sweet with a black aluminum bumper case too! My only concern is if it's thicker than the original cover. The bumper cases are a pretty tight fit.
I don't have any calipers to measure it but it feels real slim. At a guess it may be like 1mm thicker but minimal.
I haven't tried removing my stock nfc as I don't use it so can't answer your question

I have one for the S3 and I LOVE IT!! Best $20 bucks I ever spent on a phone battery. My worry with this one though is no mention of NFC on it. The Note 2 has NFC on the case again not on the battery like the S3. If this has NFC then you will officially have a phone that lasts longer than a Tablet
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
No NFC, no thanks.
I bought one of these (can't post links, but do a search on ebay for note 2 7600 and you'll find it). Decided if I was going to extend the battery I might as well do it properly, and a 7600MA battery is about as big as I could find! Figured if it was crap I'd only wasted £15! Turns out it's rather good. It does add a bit of depth to the phone (about 10mm), but for me at least it actually makes it more comfortable in my hand. And it has the added bonus of keeping the camera lens away from whatever surface the phone is on. Can't comment on whether the nfc works or not I'm afraid as it's not something I use.

Yes it does, I just wish it wasn't $90.00.
I have a Thunder Gray Draco sitting in my mailbox. I'll get pics and do a review when I get home. When I had a Sweet Armor case on my S3 there was no signal loss. The Draco for some reason did drop one bar. Call quality and data connection wise, I didn't notice a difference. I'll check it and see what happens tonight.
iPhone 5 has their antennas all along the aluminum sides. When you put a aluminum bumper on top of that, you're doubling the interference.
Samsung phones are some type of polymer / plastic. Not as much interference. That's why Draco has cases that are half aluminum and half plastic for the iPhone. If there were really issues with reception interference, they would have switch the S3 cases to half and half as well.
Have you seen this one?

I think the issue I had with it is that there is a cutout for the antenna that the Asian version of the phone has. If it didn't have that cutout, I would've gotten it.

Darn it all. I was looking for one of these about 3 weeks ago. I settled for 2 Anker 3100 mah batteries and a charger for about the same money. So far, they are quite good and I'm pleased with their performance. Now I have battery envy.
In my book, the stock battery is too small, the zerolemon is too big, but the Gorilla would have been just right and at a good price.

Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
From the link pictures TPU case looks like S3 case although it says for Note 2. Here is my take on this. It looks like a regular ebay extended battery with addition of NFC built into the plastic battery cover, thus probably why the price is higher than from ebay. I don't have any experience with Gorilla brand, but obviously it just a HK generic re-branded battery, and from a lot of the reviews of those I have seen it's 50/50 chance you will get the advertised capacity. I'm not saying it's a case with Gorilla stuff, but it would be good to hear back from someone who bought their battery before and had a chance to really test it out to calculate mAh output. From what I heard and read, the only available double capacity batteries that are reliable: Mugen ($105 - way too overpriced) or Hyperion ($18.99 and $4.99 for extended tpu case).
Regarding Zerolemon being too big, I would correct it as "heavier" but not too big. It adds the same thickness as 6200/6500 mAh battery, just extends it across the back of the phone due to an additional battery block. That is why people use the same Defender mod for either double capacity or triple capacity extended battery - fitment will be similar.

That's how most of these work. Double capacity is nothing more or less than 2 original ones fused together. Zerolemon is just 3 fused together, arranged in a different shape. As it was discussed before, Samsung squeezed maximum capacity out of that battery footprint, nothing holding back. 3100 mAh is the max you can get out of that single footprint while 6200 mAh is the max out of double, just like 9300 mAh is the max from ZL triple. The only other company that was able to squeeze a bit more juice out of double was Mugen, and they make their own battery cells. Everybody else buys it from China and slaps their own label on it. Some companies do a detailed testing to guarantee the product, while others write made up capacity numbers. I would take it with a grain of salt when I read 6500 mAh and see the price (higher than ebay stuff, but justifiable because NFC antenna is included and that one is pricey) which points to origin of these cells from China. I have nothing against GG and from all the feedback I see they are a very reputable company that has been around for awhile. But I still think these are really 6200 mAh batteries, unless someone can get an external test unit which discharges and monitors the actual current draw down to 3.4V or whatever is the threshold when battery goes dead.

http://www.batteryreview.info/revie...h-extended-battery-for-the-samsung-galaxy-s3/
According to the review, the GG battery is on par with Anker, Hyperion, and Mugen, beating them all slightly. If the reviewed battery is representative of GG batteries, then they are comparable to the favored batteries on this forum.
I have enjoyed reading many of your reviews. Thank you for your fine work. Is there any chance you might review the GG battery for the GN2?
