The battery used in the Galaxy Camera is the same one as used in the Samsung Galaxy S II. So you can pick these up for less than £10 so it's no problem keeping 1 or 2 spare with you when you're out and about.
Due to the nature of this camera, the battery performance isn't fantastic as expected and Sammy should have put a bigger capacity cell in there. But at least replacements are easy to come by.

I hate to ask this question and get blasted if it's already been answered elsewhere...but this seemed like the most logical place for it. I know the different versions of the Galaxy s2 have different batteries.
Which one would one use on the Galaxy Camera. Going on a trip over to Asia and don't want to have to recharge the camera every 10 minutes. Saw two versions from Anker on Amazon and was hoping someone could steer me in the right direction. Because I'm a noob I can't save you time and post the links.
Much appreciated. Don't hate me.
Mate get the Anker twin pack which comes with a free battery charger. BARGAIN! and they are great i use them in my Galaxy Camera.

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking to do. But my dumb question is that there seems to be many variations of the 2 batteries and charger. Different mAH levels that say they only work for specific versions of the GS2. I'd hate to buy a battery that was too big with only a few days left before my trip and not enough time to exchange.
I assume that the different batteries that work with specific GS2s means that only one version works with the camera. Sorry to be such a douche about it. 1900 mAH that doesn't work with s2 II(SGH-I727) or s2 II(SGH-T989. 2200 mAH that doesn't work with S2I9100 etc. I don't know if you have as many versions to worry about on amazon as we do in the states since we have different carriers on different wireless technologies.
As long as the batteries fit shape-wise they should work. Anyway: the correct type is EB-F1A2GBU, 1650mAh.
But be careful, there are loads of fakes out there, just bought two (ok, they were unreasonable cheap) and they won't fit into the camera's battery slot (too thick).

I bought 2 x Galaxy S2 1800mAh batteries and a charger for £9 off eBay and they work without any problems. I know there are 'fakes' out there with regards to the capacities but I have used ebay for replacement universal batteries for years for a whole range of phones and (so far) no problems. As ever pick a seller with good ratings and read the feedback etc and I don't see why you'd have any issues.
Regarding compatibility, I just used the original battery model number: EB-F1A2GBU and searched from there.

Just use Samsung original battery for Galaxy S II GT-I9100....
Samsung release two models, 1650mAh like the one that comes default on GT-I9100, and 2000mAh official extended battery. The size is the same, so both can be used with SGC.
When I bought mine at the AT&T store here in NY, they gave me a Samsung charging kit for free. The kit has a Samsung battery charger and an extra Samsung battery.
I'm jealous, I didn't get this kit when I bought mine from AT&T. :/

In Indonesia, if you buy this on the launching day, you get battery kit (1x 1650mAh battery + 1x external charger) and protective film for the display :laugh:
I bought mine from att as well. I actually asked if there were any promotions going on for the camera and that's when they brought up the charger. They didn't volunteer the information. Go back into the store and ask.

Both can fit as long as they are Samsung original battery for SGS2.
I can't say the same for other non official 2000mAh (or more) extended battery :fingers-crossed:

Can i use Samsung Battery Charger Stand for Galaxy S II to recharge the Galaxy Camera original batteries?
As the batteries are exactly the same model they will fit in the charger, so absolutely, yes.

Last but not least...can i use Galaxy Camera charger to charge the battery with the charger stand? The output of the Galaxy Camera charger is 5V 1A but the input of the charger stand is 5V 0.7A...

You can use all accessories from the galaxy s2 and galaxy cam for the batteries.
The batteries are 100% identical. But be careful, there are extremly many fake-batteries out there.
It took me three times to buy really original batteries.

I heard that the batteries are also the same as the AT&T Galaxy S II (not the Captivate version). Is this true?

Has anybody tried these spare batts?
If so how are they?
I tried them. Only used it a couple of times. The battery takes forever to charge in the included wall charger. Also, my OEM 3100 mah battery lasts much longer. I'm sure there are better alternatives.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
OH MANNN! i bought them already based on the reviews on amazon.. How much shorter does it last than oem in your case?
I stick to proven makers. ..
Use anker battery's with my last 3 devices and also with my note 2, one battery in the charger while the other in the device. ..
Swap once every day and a half or so
Hear my advice. Stick to anker
Tapatalk N7000 Gnote
I can't say exactly but it is a noticeable difference. I am a heavy user and dont have tocharge normally until I go to bed. With the Yesoo, I had to charge by the evening. Three batteries came with it and I have only used one. I'll probably try thr others out.
I agree with the above though. I should have bought Anker.
A note to you from my Note 2.
Here is my advice. All these extended batteries dont worth your money. I had tried many with Note 1 and was just a waste of money. Stick with the original.
anyone has experience with ankers for the note 2 i used them on my s2 and they were alright.. how bout the note 2. torn between ankers of the official spare batt using the 50% coupon
That if I remember correctly, are 3100 mah battery with a 3500 mah sticker. Avoid.
Sent from Verizon Galaxy Note II using Tapatalk 2
I recognize that this is a "necropost", but since the Note 2 is still a current phone, and this particular cell is still being sold for it, I wanted to alert potential YESOO buyers to this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43356538
(In short, the 2600 mah cells are really just 2050 mah cells with a sticker on top).

Does that mean you switched from N2 to S4?
Btw, no surprise about the battery. Any stock size battery with higher than stock capacity is a dead giveaway of fake. Gets harder to weed it out when they claim the same capacity as stock or double size extended with double capacity. In those cases, I would only trust Anker, Hyperion, and Mugen.

Yes, and no actually.
I did just switch from the N2 to the S4, but this battery is the S4 battery, not the N2 battery. I just saw this thread about the YESOO cell for the N2, and thought I'd share the info about the S4 cell.
A dishonest company is likely dishonest across the board with all their cells. In this case, factory stock is 2600, and that's what YESOO claimed, but in reality, they used a 2050 cell.
Anyone know where to get original note 2 batteries? I've been reading a lot about after market batteries swelling, over heating and even frying phones.
Seems Samsung site doesn't sell it anymore?
Much appreciated!

They also sell the above product, but just remember the charger that comes with that item is 700 mAh charger as opposed to the 2A one included with the note 2

Hi guys,
Can you tell me where can I buy an original battery replacement for my Mi Note 3? My battery is working fine now, but I don't want to end up buying a crappy battery from AliExpress in a year. My experience with AliExpress is that all of the batteries work fine at first, but they degrade fast. Also the capacity is usually not the same as the one that is advertised. Thanks
There is couple of models on AliExpress around 10$ they are. Even couple of them they sell as "original" . Look for max charge since if it is not good QC 3.0 wont work.
Послато са Mi Note 3 уз помоћ Тапатока
I'm also wondering which one to choose. I had an experience with Redmi note3 I've bought an "original" at Ali, - price was around 15$ and it seems to be slightly lower capacity abt 3-3,5 hours of screen instead of 5-6.
I previously had Mi 5 and on Mi 5 forum several people recommended Nohon brand of batteries. I ordered one because my original battery was terribly weak (~1600mAh out of initial 3000) and after using the Nohon one for one month it looks quite OK (AccuBattery reports capacity ~3000mAh again).
Maybe someone will be useful...
I bought here. this is not the original, but the quality is very good, the capacity is slightly less than the original.
The running time almost does not differ from the original. Using it for several months - everything ok.
Is there a high-capacity battery available for the Note 8 SM-N950U, something more in the 4000 mAh range like the Note 9? I'm not talking about the corny things that snap on the back and then recharge your battery, I'm talking about one that is the same size as the original, or a one that piggy backs onto the phone and augments the battery capacity of the original, not a power brick you charge from.
PS: I mean a real one, not a vendor that lies about the capacity.
Thanks!

The obvious answer in this case would be: H377 NO!!!
Is Samsung can't do it, no one else can.
I highly doubt you'll be able to find anything like that, sorry to say.

I was afraid of that because the Note 8 is isn't that old. I've seen the 18650 Li-Ions go from 2100 to 3600 so I was hoping to find something for the Note 8, or at least a case with a pretty flat battery that could add to its capacity. The only thing I see are the ones that charge the phone battery from the case battery.
Thanks for your feedback.

The original Samsung Note 4 battery was 3220 mAh. The typical replacement battery these days is 3600 mAh, so an original 3300 mAh Note 8 now having one that is 3700 mAh wouldn't be too crazy.

I once put an 8000 Mah battery into a Note 3. Jumped from 3200 to 8000, back in the days of removable battery. I think, you could do it. The problem being is that it'd be difficult to find a battery of a higher mah.

...for the same physical dimensions...
We are just trying to save the OP, the time and energy to find something that Samsung already perfected (for those physical dimensions). Anything else is an explosive Note 7 (all over again).
The OP's question is basically asking: "how to fit a truck battery in our Note 8, just to get a few more mAh". Apple, Samsung, and other manufacturers, finally got the formula right in my opinion. My phone lasts 2 days if I'm not gaming on my phone constantly

To make a jump like that normally means a larger back cover with removable batteries. That would work up through the Note 4. For the Note 8 or 9, it would require a new back cover. I could make one easily enough from plastic, but I don't know how it would affect the strength integrity of the phone because I'm half guessing that a good amount of its strength comes from the back cover. The only thing they make for them is a thicker case with a piggy-back battery for charging the main battery and no fast charging.
