Are these genuine? Batteries from alibaba - Galaxy Note II Accessories

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.

1750 mAh extended ns4g?

Like everything else they make it's probably not...
Is it true the samsung 1440mAh is better than the 1600mAH or even out stock batteries? I read that it was even though i dont see how it could be.
I doubt that the 1440 mAh is better than the 1750 mAh. I think I'll get this slim extended battery! It's as much as the regular OEM, which is I think the 1600 mAh. But I'm contemplating if the 3300 mAh (bulky but with backdoor) would be better considering the price is too much? http://www.mythoslife.com/2011/04/nexus-s-now-has-extended-battery.html. Then, again, if you're a power user then it might be worth it.
interesting...
Like stated before, it probably isn't 1750. They ramp up the number to get more sales and usually worse than the stock 1440mah.
I'd rather get the Seidio 1750 mAh slim extended battery. It'll probably last better compared to the one from eBay. http://mythoslife-store.blogspot.com/2011/05/looking-for-extended-slim-battery-for.html.
Seidio had the same battery up a few months ago and had it labeled as 1600mah.

pay shipping and I will send you two extra batteries and a charger I bought from ebay.... they claimed 1800mah but under the sticker they were 1100mah. I never used them, I just wanted to test them. You can swap batteries...

no thanks, im going with the 1600mAh from mugen.
Great, you'll never know what you buy these days on eBay. Did you say that Seidio is the same way? My perception of this company is that their products are hight quality.
I'm not saying seidio is the same way... when the nexus s was released they had the same exact battery and description but 1600mah. Now it looks like they bumped it. I don't want to knock it until I try it. I'm not sure who to trust...

My NS4G came with the Samsung 1440mAH battery. It lasts me all day even if I use it moderately. I am looking at buying an extra Samsung battery and a battery charger so I can have a charged spare battery for those heavy usage days.
2 the guy selling the 2 extra batteries and the charger, I may be interested. The only reason I haven't bought them from ebay yet is I don't want to wait all that time for shipping from China.

but there is a general rule that says.
if its more MAH than stock battery,but do has the same size as Stock battery.its fake.
more MAH meens Bigger battery to actually make it work.

Increased mah doesn't always = larger battery. OEMs are notorious for skimping on batteries. Sure.there are limits in package size but OEMs rarely ever reach the full cell size. There's a reason Samsung has multiple mah batteries of the same outer packaging size. Hell, I have about 3 different nexus one batteries of different capacity that all fit with the standard backplate. The N1's battery drivers were written into some kernels and you can read (even alter) the battery controller's register values in real time.

Motorola BF6X Extended Battery

Does anyone have experience with the Motorola BF6X battery? Is it a legitimate OEM battery?
I purchased one from the following eBay user, but I've seen it around on other places. I will let you guys know how it is once I've got it, but I'd like feedback from others ...

Those batteries aren't the same at all ... They are cheap knockoffs with probably half the rated capacity.
I bought mine at a verizon store. After I updated to 5.6.890 I monitored batt life. Had 40% @29th hour from the first full charge (had 70% when I bought it). Wrote it down, but can't find the stat. I was trying for 48hr. Fell short by 4 or 6 hrs.? Played XGalaxy2, Txt, Email, Tweaking, little broswering. lol . I'm using a live wallpaper now so thats using energy. ps. debloated.

I agree. Get the one from Verizon. You need the new battery door. I'm using one since I received the phone, still don't get anywhere near the rated phone specifications of 300 hours standby/550minutes usage. However, the battery does make a difference for me.
The inductive charger is also a nice accessory and works with the extended battery.

I got mine from amazon (the us site I mean), payed it 29 USD + 5 euros to ship it to italy (via a proxy service).
I just ordered a genuine Motorola 1930mAh battery; I've heard too many bad things about the generics and knock-offs to buy one of those. I would avoid them.
Can you buy genuine Motorola batteries for D3 that are bigger than 1930mAh (I mean bigger power-wise, not physically)?

It doesn't state that it comes with a new battery door... were you able to fit your battery cover on your phone with your new BF6X batterY??
or does anyone else who purchased a similar item know?
You can fit the battery in under the stock cover
but if you live in a hot area there wont be room for the battery to expand and that could cause problems

A battery of that size and capacity won't expand than the thickness of a sheet of paper. If it expands noticablly, you'd be facing a serious risk of explodsion whether if you're using the extended back or not.

Cheap batteries on ebay

www.ebay.com/itm/2x-3500mAh-Battery...axy-Note-2-II-32GB-GT-N7100-new-/170915299426
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.

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

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.

After the battery that came with my note stopped charging i decided to buy a replacement. So what do you think guys about this?

I have already bought it but i don't know if its really genuine. Feedback about the batteries they have selled so far is good. Batteries for my phone in my country cost 40 euros so i thought that this is a good offer but what if my phone gets damaged after using this battery? How do i recognize fake batteries?
Zerolemon plain and simple I paid 44. 95 for it makes the phone heavy but that's OK I like weight battery last 3 days

No, they're not genuine and will very likely not be true capacity.
If you're looking for a standard capacity aftermarket battery I would highly recommend these..
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00B208QDU/
I use them every single day as I just keep 3 batteries charged via a external wall charger and just swap batteries when needed instead of leaving phone plugged in. They last as long as my genuine battery does.
As mentioned above though, If you want an external you cant beat the ZeroLemon
PS. In future please use search, We already have plenty of eBay/battery topics so you could have just replied to one of them or read them and not needed to. Opening topics like this just adds to an already cluttered forum.
Not to sound like Anker fan-boy lol!!!, but www.amazon.co.uk/Anker®-3100mAh-Battery-Samsung-GT-N7100/dp/B009OWLTLO/ - those are highly reliable and on US amazon have hundreds of 5-star reviews. Actually, I prefer their 2x battery + wall charger combo for $25: www.amazon.com/3100mAh-Batteries-T-Mobile-Cellular-EB595675LA/dp/B009SYL6C0/ - convenient to use one while charging the other one and swap it.

I never had issues with them and reviewed all of their batteries, internal and external. Just so people wouldn't think that I'm biased because i review a lot of their stuff, just go to US Amazon and search for their products, typically hundreds and sometime thousands of 5-star reviews for their external batteries and internal batteries.

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.

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.
