can you use BOTH the battery that comes with the phone as well as the extended battery??

Nop, this battery replaces the original one, in fact, it is mandatory the use of the provided shell since the battery is almost as big as the phone itself.

No. You can use either the extended battery OR the phone battery. But the extended battery is about 3 times as large (in capacity) as the original battery so you still gain very much battery Power using extended battery alone.

You can use it taking off one and using the other but not two at the time. This battery comes like two OEM batteries connected to eachother, one is bigger than the other. You take off the OEM battery and put unstead the extended one, and put on the case that comes with it.

No, you buy this After you have already bought an extended battery for your phone. This is just a protector Only!

I am not sure I don't. Have an extended battery. However this is an awesome protective cover for this phone.

I don't know why not. The terminals have to be in the same place. Didn't even know there was an extended battery for S3. Must take a different back

Yes you can use the charger you already have. Only reason I would get the other one is if I needed my phone to not be tied to the wall.

No as far as I know, but can use the seidio for extended battery with no issues

I dont believe so. To my knowledge, the extended battery is thicker and requires a new back on the phone to accomodate. This case is designed to fit the standard back and will not accomodate a thicker phone.

Yes you can. The battery is a little larger so you can't use the original back cover. The battery comes with two back cover.

as far as I know there is no case available if you use the extended battery.. the battery does not help much any, goes down almost as quick as the regular battery.. the phone is crap.. I see why Sprint let us get them free.. They wanted $$ for the better phones..

Yes. The battery comes with a new back plate to accommodate the thicker battery. The phone will be less sleek. It was a good tradeoff for me. The update I can provide is that the battery longevity is already on the decline so this is a little disappointing. Still, it is getting me through the better part of the day and if I get an additional charge during car rides, I get through the day. I will be more selective on my next phone acquustion to be sure the battery life hasbeen well engineered!

Hi Dave. I don't have the extended battery to test but it's a snug fit. There is a plastic plate the fits on the phone to help center it when you connect it to the doc. If you don't use that you may be able to slide the phone in with the extended battery but my guess would be that it would be to bulky.

I don't believe so. The extended battery and case make the phone significantly thicker. Best of luck!

Yes, I also purchase the extended battery which provides about three times the life of the stock battery.

I currently use mine with the OEM 2100 extended battery, but I have to leave the phone's back cover off for it to work. Otherwise, yes, it will work with an extended battery quite well.

If I understand your question correctly, then yes. The extended battery will work in the charger that comes with the radio.

The phone is almost exactly twice as thick as the stock battery that comes with the phone. I am not sure how that compares to the extended battery by Samsung.

This comes with both covers and extended battery. It worked well but made my phone off balance. I dropped it and cracked the screen due to the weight.
