"We are expecting to have these on July 6th. As soon as we'll get these we will compare and contrast this extended battery to a standard one."
Not that there aren't other solutions available of course, but for those looking for purchase from verizon with their disconnect that means we will have it soon.
PS verizon always lists their extended batteries @ 49.99 with new door cover. That alone is cheap but with a accessories discount that a steal.

I went onto the samsung website (canadian version) and checked some of the prices for note2 accessories and I was blown away how expensive they are. You'd think samsung would realize if they priced their accessories at a reasonable more people would purchase them.
for example $39.99 for their Note2 TPU cover. $49 for their MHL adapter. Before ebay or online shopping I could see companies charging these outrages prices but with ebay and the like who would buy some of this stuff from samsung when you can get less expensive versions?
Stuff up here is definitely more expensive than the states.
I know its not much of a discount but shopandroid gets sales every now and then.

And if u dont mind waiting then amazon.com with amazon prime shipping is another alternative. Just be wary of international shipping and duties cost.

Impulse buying when the phone is originally bought. Wouldn't take much of a salesman to sell a 50 dollar case to protect a 600 investment. Or all the neat add ons "to get the most" out of your brand new phone.

This. I'm such a sucker for it.
My thought process: "Well, what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service? Might as well get the best one. And why did I buy a phone with removable battery and storage if I'm not going to buy a spare battery and spare battery charger, and a 64 gig microSD? Wow... I've got a lot invested in this thing. Better buy a case for every day use, and a tank of a case for when I go out. What's this... an app that I will use every day of my life for only $5? That's one drink out at the bars, I can swing that. An app for $0.99??? Might as well be free. Oh, and can't forget the car dock and charger, that's an essential."

You forgot to mention screen protector and also new pair of jeans with bigger pockets and pouches to protect the case thats on your phone...and if thats not enough might aswell get a crib for it by the bed side. And just to be sure and on the safe side avoid having kids for aslong as possible just incase that requires you to divert your attention from your note 2....

You are right to tell people to be wary of the price, Especially in the case Custom Duties i.e. vat to added [collected at this end by PO], plus the minimal £8 Post Office Charge.
Take Care

Samsung is expensive because they guarantee the products will fit and work 100% with the phone plus every manufacturer always charges more for their respective products. Example: htc charged around $40 for their mhl adapter and $50 or more for their tv dock. It's just a matter of finding items cheaper and hoping that if you buy generic it won't damage your phone and fits correctly. There are plenty of reputable companies that make accessories you can count on. Like otterbox,seidio,spigen, and many others.

Lol what you said about "what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service" is so true for me. I have to always buy the best phones out. Unless the phone was alooooooot cheaper, as in free, I would never choose a S2/N1 over S3/N2.
I hear you. Yet I can't seem to stop shopping for an "even better case". I think I will draw a line at Sweet armor bumper though. Just a frame, not even total back protection and 70 USD?

This is my problem.. I get bored, go on ebay and type in Galaxy Note 2 cases, and go, "Oh, this is only 7bucks. Might as well right?". My logic fails considering it adds up to be quite a bit lol.

So you think a $50 MHL cable is fine when it probably cost them 50 cents (maybe a dollar) to make in china. I'm all for a company making money/profit but that's kind of ridiculous.
For cases, I always hit up ebay. For the same price as a retail case, you could buy a dozen and try them all out!
For cables, chargers and batteries, however, I've been very hesitant to get them "cheap" because of the risk of damaging my device. After reading an article about various chargers and usb cables which showed that the third party/counterfeit brands have no consistency to them, I've stayed with trusted oem brands.

Wait until you see the "Australia" price, then you will know what truly outrage is.
Why are genuine apple accessories?
Why do dealerships sell spark plugs for 5 times the price of an auto store?
It's genuine oem, and they are all overpriced.

Hello all.
I got one of these when best buy dumped them, in the rose gold. Any way to replace the band? It would seem you can just put the clasp on a new band, but don't know if there is a source for bands.
thanks!
The "band" is an integrated housing for the speaker, microphone, and camera. The band is not user replaceable, but with anything in life, with enough ingenuity, anything is possible. I would certainly NOT encourage removing it just to change the color. Give it some time and it may grow on you, for the great price you paid. In a couple of months, you will start seeing skins coming out to cover the band with all kinds of colors and designs, like they have now for the case and clasp.
You could just return it and pick one up online from AT&T for 199.99 in the color of your choice. It's only 50 more dollars and cheaper and easier than replacing the band. I've seen replacement bands on ebay and they were over 100 bucks. AT&T you have to buy online but you can choose pick up in store option and get it immediately. I just got mine that way today.
Someone here posted bands links on eBay and I remember it was over $150 for the set. Not worth it.

I know a lot of people are anticipating extended batteries for the G4, and although we have a mophie, it's expensive and it's just a charging case. I contacted Zerolemon, and they said that due to the work going into the Note Edge battery, the G4 is being placed in late August for release. If anyone finds or knows of a good extended battery or battery case please leave a comment because I know several people who would want them. Here is a copy and paste of the message.
"Thanks for your interest. We have a plan of Note edge battery case on progress at present. We are trying hard to put it online at the end of August. Pl ease keep an eye on our official website and FB page to get the newest information."
Hyperion should have an extended battery coming soon.
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk
Right now, Mophie has this battery case available but at a high cost. Hyperion lists this 6000mAh model on Amazon, however the images are for the G3 and the Hyperion website lists no such G4 model so please don't buy it as there's a good chance its a fake or something. It's I'd personally rather wait for either proof that Hyperion listing is real, or the signature ZeroLemon battery. On the G4, the life on either one should be absolutely stellar!

The Amazon listing is real it is Hyperion who is the seller right now they are doing preorders . Mophie did the same thing and I sent the case back for a replacement.after testing it only have my 25% extra battery. Called them and they replacing it once they get my old one back. So by Monday I should have new one. Major flaw of case is it is very slippery. Will actually have to add some kind of grip tape so it has a little traction.
BAD ASS NOTE 4
I emailed Anker to enquire on when they might be releasing an extended battery, I also asked about two other products. Here's my email, and their reply:
I have recently bought an LG G4, and I know it's a newly released device, so accessories are limited. I do really like the products I've bought from you in the past, and I was wondering if there has been a decision on whether you will make the following products, and if so, do you have a rough timescale as to when they might be available to purchase.
1. Extended battery for LG G4
2. QI wireless charging pad, that supports the Quick Charge 2.0 standard (I understand that this new standard has also only recently been released, and as far as I can tell, there are no products that exist yet, a gap in the market for you if you're quick!)
3. QI power bank, that at least charges devices wirelessly (ideally with quick charge 2.0 speeds) and that also charges wirelessly, but that would be a bonus feature rather than a necessity.
There are alternative products already available that match my 3rd product in the list, but to be honest I'm not convinced about the reliability of the product, and it'd be lovely to be able to purchase one from yourselves, as I know they are good products.
Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you!
Lawrence

Thanks for contacting us and showing your support in Anker products.
Please be advised that the below information are from our product manager (the estimated time only though).
1. The Extended battery for LG G4 is expecting to be available at the end of July, 2015.
2. So far, we do not have a QI wireless charging pad that supports the Quick Charge 2.0 standard for LG G4 yet. I have informed our product manager. They will take that into their consideration.
3. Also, we do not have a QI power b a n k at the moment. I have also mentioned that to our product manager.
I believe that with your feedback and support we’ll go on to develop even more market leading products.

Looks like we've got out first extended battery option almost ready for release. That didn't take long!
Would it too heavy?

I don't think so. I think the added bulk makes it easier to hold as well.
Hi.
I like this phone. I have just bought one second hand and I think its a definite keeper. I think I will keep it for years and years haha
So I would like to buy a battery for the future. Now I am unsure how old the handset I bought is, so it could possibly have a 2 year old battery in it. They battery life seems ok but it may quickly deteriorate in the future.
Does anyone know of any legit places for batteries?
Cheers.

ebay is safe just make sure it states in listing oem, new and EX34, thoroughly test upon reviving and if item is not as described initiate a return and your only out time and effort
I've seen some on eBay. All from the States. They are very cheap at about 5 UK pounds after conversion + postage costs. The cheapness got me worrying about them bring fake.
Oh I don't want to try the battery out. I will buy one and put it in the draw. I do not want to crack this phone open for fun; only if it's truly necessary. I saw the ifixit video for battery replacement and it looks a PITA. Just way too much adhesive going on. So the battery has to be legit ideally.
