For those of you that need more battery life. Samsung has an OEM extended battery kit. Adds about 1mm to your phones thickness with a new battery cover. It's a 2000mah battery.  [PREVIEW] Samsung galaxy S 2 2000mah battery by samsung - xda-developers | |

What do you guys think about buying 3 batteries and charger from this guy? 3x New Battery+Charger For Samsung Galaxy S 2 II i9100 | eBay
99.4% positive feedback so the batteries can't be that shitty right? I really only want one extra quality battery and a charger so if anyone has any ideas, please share!

try and find feedbacks for those batteries. most are probably for other stuff he's sold.
edit: went through his last 1000 feedbacks, couldn't find anyone else that bought the same item.

Positive feedback doesn't mean that they're awesome batteries. I'd rather buy something brand name like Momax or even OEM since they're not that expensive.

Also, after 2 months my Zenus Prestige carbon series case finally came (but i had already filed a dispute and got a refund because there's that 45 day limit to file a dispute for item not received). I got a different case already so I don't have a use for this. If anyone wants it...$20 Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 Leather Case Cover ZENUS Prestige Carbon Folder Type NEW | eBay | Ultra crystal sold

I bought it off of eBay for like $10 shipped. It came in a legit looking Nokia packaging.
I worked at a company that specialized in battery capacity analysis at the time, so I put my OEM phone battery and the new "OEM" battery under the same test (charge to full, fully discharge, then charge back up to full) to find the actual capacity.
Turns out my old battery still had a capacity of 93% and the new one that I bought off eBay had a capacity of 57%.
I was like........ .........then  .........and recycled the new battery instead. After throwing it out, I claimed that I never received my battery with the eBay seller and got a full refund back.
