Im not really much of a reviewer so im not going to make a indepth review this product, but im making this post for two reason,
1. Show a good nice for the price power bank.
2. Give a link to a GENUINE listing of this powerbank, because from what i have seen there are more fakes than genuine for sale.
Pros: I have to say that i love this powerbank its handy and never seems to run out of charge . It doesn't heat up at all unlike some other powerbanks i have used, making it more power efficient and comes with lots of features that you can find on its product page. + Awesome build quality
Cons: Its heavier than you would expect (not that bad tbh) and it takes very long to charge.

If you guys have questions, i will answer :good:.

Yep it comes with a micro usb cable but if you have an iPhone you can always just use a personal lightning cable.
Always buy Xiaomi products from their official stores
This is the official store of Xiaomi www.mi.com/en/powerbank/ Buy from here because everywhere else they're selling fake powerbanks.
Have you even tried to buy it from there?
No, because they overcharge for stuff such as delivery, for UK its $20 for delivery. So with taxes the overall cost is $40. So its not worth it.
Hence I chose gearbest because the power bank had very good reviews. Also when I bought it I checked if it was real via xiaomi, so basically I know this is real.
Yes I have.
In India, they charge ₹50 (0.75 USD) for orders below ₹599 (9 USD). Above that, they ship the product without any charge.
Good that you got the original product.
I'm not sure about other countries, but I'm just talking about charges if you are delivering to UK.

I just ordered a 3-pack of 1500mAh batteries with a battery charger for like $12 shipped from eBay. Since they are coming from Hong Kong, I have a bit of a wait, but has anybody tried the eBay batteries on their Xperia Play?
I used similar batteries on my Samsung Captivate with no problems other than they seemed to be only slightly less capacity than my original (based on non-scientific gut checks at the end of the day of how much charge I thought I should have.)
In searching before posting this, I saw some nightmares in the HTC forums where they peeled back the label from their batteries and found them rated by another label 500mAh less than what the top label said.
I'll report back either way when they arrive.
Got them in today. I took some pics to show what they look like right out of the pack. Notice that they all have the same S/N. Hmmmm
The charger has a USB port at the bottom and glows red when charging. If it is like the other eBay battery chargers I've seen, it will likely turn a different color when full.
Will report back once I've had a chance to use them.
Good luck with the batteries. I couldn't find the offer with 3 batteries so maybe they took it out in the last month (ebay.com).
If they turn out to be ok it could be a good investment for an emergency. Looking forward to your results.
I picked up the batteries from this seller.
As it turns out, two of the batteries seem to be bad. I sent a note to the seller to see about making it right. I'll update the thread with whatever the outcome turns out to be.
Regardless, the one that is working is doing a great job. I've been using it in place of my original battery, and so far, I can't seem to tell any difference.
Update: I accepted an offer for my Xperia Play, so I won't be following up here. I sold it with the good extra battery and am probably going to get a Samsung next.
I bought a set with 2 batteries and they seem to work fine, just slightly less capacity as the original. I know just charge the batts separately and swap them when I need a new one.
I got this response from the seller:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for shopping with us.
We apologize for the inconvenience. We are now processing replacement for you.
Customer satisfaction is important to us, as a token of courtesy, there is no need for you to return the original item to us.
Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. If there is anything else we can do to assist you, please feel free to let us know. Thank you.

That was really nice of them. I checked the seller but they won't ship outside of the US, even tho it's coming from Hong Kong D:
There's a chinese company that makes 1800mAh batteries for the X10. They work in the play, and are good quality. All the reviews said they actually offered better battery life, unlike a lot of cheap alternatives. I can't remember the brand name, but they're black with gold writing.

Normally I wouldn't trust third party batteries from eBay, although I did buy an extended battery for my laptop off of Amazon over a year ago (third party) and it stills holds a charge fantastically.
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.
Okay i have seen some chargers on ebay that are 3rd party not made by LG but was wondering are the 3rd party chargers any good to buy as they are half the price. Some of these replacement generic chargers work well.
Now im not sure the stuff on ebay is actually genuine, but do the third party charger work just as good like some mobile chargers. Im gonna throw this one around at work anyhow so i don't really want to fork out more money if they work the same. Maybe someone can share their experience on the actual product rather than stating what they think such as "you get what you pay for" or "always buy genuine for warranty and safety".
Thanks for any Information given
Kind Regards
All The Best
I bought one from ebay which stated that it was not genuine but would be suitable for my Urbane. When it arrived from China it was too big for my watch to sit in so was basically useless. But to be fair I did get an immediate refund and didn't need to post the charger back which saved some hassle.
has anyone else found any good alternative chargers?
Thanks!
Hello,
I'm looking for something like this to charge my spare battery, but I have few options since I'm outside USA. I've seen plenty of good options at amazon, but none which can be shipped to my country, and I don't trust "unbranded"/generic products related to battery because it can kill the battery life or, worst scenario, leak or explode.
My options are limited to ebay, DX or aliexpress (or any shop with cheap international shipping), can someone recomend me something (trustable) about U$10-U$15?
There are too many options but you are living outside United States. One thing you can do is go to amazon.com and find products......Of course you will have to do some research but you will find it....

LG has a battery charger but I don't believe they're selling it separately. I got it on pre-order and I will not sell it to you
Try something like that There's 3 different models on that page.
This store sales LG original parts: http://www.spareslg.com
Original battery is 18,11€ plus taxes, try email tham and ask for the charger.
that's an interesting question... so you have a spare battery for your phone? Why not just get a power bank, or something like that? THose must be more readily available than what you're looking for.
Hi,
My mother's A2 Lite battery swelled inside the phone, and the phone restarts anytime. Here in Brazil we don't have official Xiaomi support places, just lots of small stores where I can buy very inferior clone batteries, which don't hold the phone on for much time, just for some hours.
I think its very hard to know who is selling a authentic battery just based on the price. Do you know a seller who sells authentic BN47 batteries? Or how to import it straight from Xiaomi? I can't find it anywhere!

I think you can find this on eBay, and buy from a seller with good feedback:

Thanks for helping.
How can I be sure if the battery is original? We have a lot of online sellers here too. Don't get me wrong, but original parts are way harder to get in these sites.
The first seller in your eBay search is a trusted seller, however the battery seems too cheap to be original (EUR12.90)... I once bought some large sized SD Cards from trusted sellers, paying a reasonable amount of money and all the cards resulted fake. I got a refund after all, but I don't want to pass through this again.
I would even buy a more expensive one if I was assured the battery to be authentic. Maybe some personal recomendations would help.

Well, actually, it seems I bought a relatively cheap but good clone battery (at a physical store), at least for the first week... It is practically identical to the original one, but the seller assured it is a clone, but a "first line" one. Surprisingly, at the moment, it is performing better than my own 3 year original battery.
I will keep an eye in the performance and lifetime of this battery, if I see it's quickly degrading I will try to follow your advice.
PS: A warning for anyone willing to open the phone and change the battery: pay attention when opening the phone because there's a big chance of cutting the short small flat from the fingerprint sensor. Yeah, I damaged the phone's fingerprint sensor...
