Extended Battery Opinions Requested

I've been looking at the xv6800 extended battery options. Since I came from an 6700 with the monster extended battery, I'm kind of leaning towards one that is somewhere in the middle. The monster 3200 (or 33, 34... don't remember) was awesome, I don't think I need that much day to day.
I don't think the 1800 is an option, so I guess I have to choose from the ones that require a different battery door. I'm looking for the minimum increase to phone thickness.
Option 1: I can't find measurements, but this looks like the least additional thickness. 2400 Mah. I can't get a good indication on the thickness it adds.
Option 2: This is interesting due to the way it is designed, it looks like it might feel comfy in the hand... 2200 Mah
Option 3: This is pretty much the same, but squares off the back so it might lay on the desk, counter, dashboard, etc more evenly... Another 2400 mah. At that point, I might as well get the monster 3200 Mah
I'm leaning towards option 1 since it is close to double the capacity, but it looks realitively thin.
Thoughts? Opinions?

seidio makes the 3200 one but no case for it.

Yes, I was aware of that, thanks. I'm just wondering if anyone has opinions or reviews of Option 1?

option 1 adds about 1/4 inch

Option 1s picture could be deceiving since the picture makes it hard to tell how thick it is from the side. The monster battery is overkill for me. I would go with option 1 if it extends only half way out as much as the monster battery would. It would be nice if somehow I can get the option 1 battery with the option 2 battery cover.

Option 1 battery with option 2 cover.

I have the option 2 Battery with a slightly different cover...Sort of Slanted sides to a flat and the cover looks great...
But don't bother with 2200 or 2400...
Mine is 2200 and you really don't get a lot extra from it. Can't imagine an extra 200 is going to make a significant difference. You will wake up the next day with a usable unit but you won't make it through the day.
Go for the 3200 if you can get it.
That should let you skip a day on the charging if you have to...

It would be really nice to see these batteries + covers from many different angles. People willing to take some pictures and post them?

It's a battery and cover for a phone. I think if you're worried about "looks" rather than functionality, perhaps the priorities are a bit skewed.
Buy the biggest battery for your needs, the looks are going to be what they are regardless because the manufacturers decide what the thing looks like. If it's ugly, to you, return it.

I don't agree with your comment completely. Yes, looks is a comparison option, and based on that alone, I wouldn't get the 3200, but I know that I will require x minimum amount of battery, so that is not the only consideration. Some of those with the slanted covers appear that they might feel more comfortable from a grip standpoint. The 3200 might be too big as it relates to holsters, pouches, etc. I am asking for opinions across the board, not just a beauty contest
Based on Asphyx reply, I might just go ahead and get a 3x00 variant... probably the prettiest one

I have the seidio battery and extended battery hard cover, it has a rubber"y" grippy feeling to it. Looks fine and all in black. My holster fits just fine.
Not sure what beauty part of a phone has to do with it, you could have a really beautiful dead phone, but well, it's just a really beautiful brick then.

Thanks,
Has anyone found a charging base that works with a phone (6800) that has the extended battery installed? I don't want to unplug the battery to charge it and I'm trying to get away for the cable bit, I liked the base that the 6700 had.

I've done EXTENSIVE looking for this exact thing, and so far have had to mod 2 normal cradles so I can use them with a super extended battery.
The cradles because they had to be modded didn't have anything to support the device standing up, finally gave up and just use the cable on the desktop.

Here are a couple of options for you.
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=832
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=833
The standard dock has a 3.5mm audio port that allows you to plug into external speakers, while the Jr. version is simple sync & charge. Both will work with extended batteries.

NEITHER one of these answers the original request. The only difference between these two cradles is that one lets you keep the rubberized case on the device while charging. That is NOT the same as charging while having the extended battery IN the device using a cradle. I too would like this option. I've asked for this months ago. I have a super extended battery with a rubberized case and want a cradle that accommodates that and a spare battery to charge from the cradle as well.
To date, nothing like this exists.

battery thickness (pun intended)

ive just been looking at bigger batteries. and they a bit thicker. now it might just be me getting thicker but they seem to come with a case type looking thingy. is it the bigger the battery capacity the chunkier the battery

Generally thats right but there are some (slightly) higher capacity batteries than original, that are the same size as the original one - it depends how much more capacity you require.

The thicker batteries need a different battery cover otherwise they wont fit and this changes the style of the phone. I just use a combination of a spare standard thickness battery, travel charger and a HTC 3-in1 usb adapter to keep my TyTN II always up and running when out on my travels.

If we could make batteries twice the capacity in the same size don't you think that would already be used as standard?
There's a maximum of energy you can pack in a given size and/or weight, you'll find batteries that have a little more or a little less but it's usually not more than 10% difference. If it is, it's usually the manufacturer telling BS, like on pretty much all cheap "compatible" batteries you find for digital cameras etc on ebay. They will say that the battery has 30% more capacity than the original, and when you actually test it lasts half the time

If we could make batteries twice the capacity in the same size don't you think that would already be used as standard?
that there is nuts, that could also apply to sd cadrs and the like, just because you can get bigger for the same dimensions doesnt mean theyll give it to you that would be nice thing to do
you kno the usb docking charger on amazon for 11 pound theres a space behind the phone is that for a second battery
actually ill get this moved

mine's bigger than yours

Where to buy genuine HTC HD2 battery?

Anyone have any idea where I can order the genuine battery for the HD2? My stock battery is dying and it would be awesome if I can get a brand new one that performs well. So far, I ordered two of those Chinese imitation batteries from two different sellers and they have the same serial number haha. They don't hold nearly as much charge as they should. Any suggestions?

is the mould 100% same on this battery & the wrapping cut & folded the same.
Also look at print for matching size & quality.
Most batteries at that price will not be original but if lucky it will be quite good battery in a HTC copy wrapper.
Another way to tell is get other buyers to forward the serial of battery, copies only have a few differing serials at best & normally just one.

Haha... now I'm worried about copy wrappers.
Original battery on the left and new one from Amazon link on the right. (I'm pretty sure... could have gotten them backwards). I'll go dig around for their serial numbers online and see what I find.

Hard to tell from that image. compare moulding on edges & how wrapper is folded around. Also look at water label & contacts. Original battery contacts are quality copper & look a bit satin if look at an angle but look shiny when view straight, copy batteries normally have a cheaper coated contact which is shiny at all viewing angles.
If it performs ok & charges without getting over hot don't worry about it too much.

They look exactly identical in every single aspect. So much so that I wouldn't know which was the originial if I hadn't taken a pic. No heat issues and I've been abusing the Netflix app testing both batteries.

You got a battery with the correct markings; at that price point, it is almost certainly a Chinese relacement. Be sure and report back after three charge cycles with the measured capacity.

I'm a little leary; the photo says 1500, but the description says 1300...

Original batteries are heavier than these cheap rip-offs. They use the copy wrapper to mask their lesser capacity.

Some copy HTC batteries will be same weight or even heavier.
I have a fake HTC battery that I picked up for my Touch Pro, slightly heavier & performs as good as original but probably not for as long as original cell.
problem with copies is quality goes from trash to almost on par with original but with not much way of telling what you are going to get.
I went for a compact USB power pack as got bored of looking at fake HTC batteries & official HTC retail outlet prices can be ridiculous, plus swapping, booting & charging 2 cells is a pain at times.

I like that you don't need a larger back cover with this ebay one.... Anyone any experience with this battery? Also, with the larger batteries that DO require an extended back cover, how is NFC affected?

NFC won't work, because NFC antenna is in the original back cover.

There are varieties of extra capacity batteries for 4X, up to 4800 mAh @ 3.7V, but most require some custom back cover which usually doesn't include NFC anntena, and the true capacity is in question as is the quality (longevity) of these batts. Mugen's deal is genuine (from various reviews and remarks), the back cover has NFC, but the price is just insane, $90 for the cover and battery! And they're not that great:

Yeah, I'm thinking the $90 for a freaking battery is way overkill on the price tag. Unless that thing had a mini-arc reactor that can power the phone for a whole year without any slowdown, then the price is warranted. I've switched my original battery for the Onite 4800mAH and the performance is just about as impressive as the touted Mugen one for more than half of the Mugen price. Average non-heavy use on a single charge goes up to at least 2 to 2.5 full days to reach zero charge.
I've also played around batteries of varying sized from the gold 2450mAH up to the 4800mAH that I now use and I have noticed that depending on which battery you use, the phone either heats up insanely fast or rarely heats up at all. The gold 2450mAH battery I have has just as much of a pitiful charge as the original battery that came with the phone but for some reason, the recorded temp rarely strays between 77°f to 88°f at it's lightest and heaviest usage. The 4300mAH battery also shows the same readings as the gold battery. The Onite one I have that is 4800mAH is almost as normal as the original battery - in that it's temp rises depending on usage from 77°f up to 110°f (110°f at the worst without any throttling at all, graphite heat sink pad included). I have no idea why that is, but if someone here can explain, please do so.
As for NFC, I barely use it at all, but I do have more than one back cover that includes the NFC antenna for extended batteries if I ever feel the need to use NFC.

A larger capacity battery without larger backcover is impossible. The capacity of a battery is directly related to it's size (using same technology). Without using a physically bigger battery it's not possible to get more capacity, unless they invent a new technology. Maybe they can squize a few more mAh in there, but that's it.
So if you want a significantly larger capacity, you have to have a battery that,s substantialy bigger and therefore require a different back-cover.

Got the battery yesterday, I'm fully charging it as we speak in an external charger. The battery itself is massive and heavy (you would think it was actually 5000mah just by visually inspecting). I will update and post back after I put it in. The back cover fits perfectly and tightly, pleasantly surprised about that.
My last extended bat was on my my touch 4g, so I have experience with them. Let's see how this pans out!

Looking for relatively thin extended battery

Just bought a Note 2, currently I have a Galaxy S3 with the official extended battery. This gives a small increase in capacity (3000mAh) and also a small amount of thickness added on compared to standard.
Most of the extended batteries for the Note 2 are huge, I am curious to know if anyone has experienced any trusted extended batteries, possibly an extra 1000mAh+, but only adding a small thickness to the phone like the official one for S3, instead of the large batteries like Zerolemon etc.

I've been looking for something like that too. Haven't found one yet. I don't like the bulk that the big extended batteries add to the already huge device.

they are all double the size of the normal battery nothing thinner.

Well I don't need a battery that lasts for 4 days or whatever, just slightly longer than stock. And I do not wish to increase the thickness of the phone 2x, 3x etc for extra power that I don't need.
The genuine extended for the S3 was the perfect solution, I just wish similar existed for the Note 2.

I have had this same range for my HTC One X. When the battery feeds the device, it constantly told me that the power used is larger than it receives from the battery. So, this is bad!
When the device is off and the battery is full, it is possible to charge the internal device to approximately half full, so this is bad!
ut, worse is to come: My device dropped by accident and, because of this heavy load together with missing protection for the glass (device does NOT protect the face of the device!) the gorilla glass broke to several pieces.
So, unless this is a completely different type (which I doubt!), you better NOT try this one!

I have had this same range for my HTC One X. When the battery feeds the device, it constantly told me that the power used is larger than it receives from the battery. So, this is bad!

Oups ! Thank you very much , too bad, I ordered one already (I liked the idea)
20$ wasted but at least I know I should not use it - or if I do, use maximum caution
Thanks a lot for letting me know, I'll report back is I go crazy enough to try it

What puzzles me is how you supposed to connect it. The case has a built in battery with two pins sticking out in the back. Then you have 2 sets of conductive wires to run from the battery to the phone? Where do you connect it on the phone, wireless charging pins or something? If you have Verizon phone, those not even available on the back, etc.

It looks like something you have to put inside, between battery and connectors.
The end will stick out of the phone. I think it has some glue so it will stick somehow on the case.
After that's connected, you can put the phone onto the external battery and the metal tips of the external battery will fit 'nicely' the glued metal stuff.
My One X already had those connectors for connecting to car etc.
I sure would not like this adaptation of my phone...
