physically/exactly how does this compare to the samsung 3000mah extended battery, dimension wise?

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.

Carlos, As far as I know the all of the extended battery dimensions are the same. I've got the Hyperion 3500mah, (can't say enough good things about the company) and the Gorilla Gadgets 4500mah and they are the same. I actually use the back cover that I got with the Hyperion over the Gorilla Gadgets battery and it fits like a glove. I use a holster from a "BLACK EXTREME RUGGED IMPACT ARMOR HYBRID HARD CASE COVER BELT CLIP HOLSTER" to carry it. Those are really cheap get more than one. Hope that helps..

You are talking about 11200mah vs 3000mah I own 2 if them and would buy a third if I had a use for it I would not buy the Anker that's just me

Yes, The battery is thicker. I thought it was great. It tilts my HP g7 about 3/4 of an inch, I found this to be beneficial (an opinion of course). Now, another great feature is the battery comes with it's own rubber feet. I have had this battery for about a month, charge life is exceptional compared to stock. With an ssd drive I have nearly doubled the stock battery time. Yes, I am a verified purchaser and can tell you also this battery is still charging to 100% capacity and I use it all day, daily. I do have to charge during day under load such as videos or movies. I get about 5-6 hours of just steady general use. The reason I mention a 100% charge after a month of daily use (Using HW monitor software) is I have purchased a stock battery that dropped to 82% maximum charge in the first two weeks! I did not care about the tilt, what I wanted was a good battery and that is what I got, I like the warranty and I like the fact that when I called to get battery # to order I got right through to a live person who told me right out of the gate it would be thicker and heavier so I do not believe any warranty issues would not be handled right away. I like that.

As far as I can tell, it is the exact same size as the battery that came with the phone (Samsung I927).

I am sure that the regular view is for the galaxy with a regular battery and the extended is for someone who has added an extended battery because the case needs to be bulkier to hold that battery. So don't get the extended if you have a regular battery because it won't fit. Hope this helps.

I don't know. My Samsung Galaxy S4 is one week old, and I haven't looked into extended batteries for it. However, I can tell you this... I put an extended battery in my old HTC Rezound. The larger battery required a larger soft plastic case. The one I got was a Ditztronic, and it was terrific. It's why I decided to get a Ditztronic for my Sansung Galaxy. If Ditztronic doesn't have a case for a Samsung Galaxy with an extended battery now, I'm sure they will have one shortly.

The battery is the same size as the original and it fits in the original case your phone comes with. It is just a more powerful battery than what originaly comes with the phone as standard. There are other extended batteries that have a sort of hump and those require a different case.

Hey Bev, sorry i bought this battery! There is only about 45 minutes of battery life so i basically have to keep it plugged in all the time. This is the second replacement battery I have bought. Next time I'll go back to Best Buy and spend more money. Nope not a Samsung battery.

Hey guys,Got it yesterday - totally worth the wait. To answer your question LT Nashville, it is significantly larger. The phone is bulkier for sure, but not to the point where it is a nuisance to look at or carry around. Overall, amazing product so far. The phone has been in my basement all morning and afternoon, which usually kills any stock battery as my basement is very hard on phone signals/batteries. The battery is barely down at all, I can tell this thing is going to run for days on end and I'm loving it! WORTH THE WAIT.

The battery is working fine after 3 months in a Samsung S6310. The outside casing of the battery lists 1300mAh. Other specs shown are 3.7V and 4.81 Wh.

The battery is just slightly larger than a regular s4 battery. They may not be the same battery tho, not sure. Fits fine in a regular s4, a little snug though.

My new extended battery is teriffic. I don't even use my old battery any longer. I just received two more extended batteries for both my grand kids Samsung phones. I know if you order the extended battery, you will be completely satisfied.

My extended battery is galaxy SIII extended battery 4200mAh. You have to keep the extended battery cover on your phone and place the Laza cover over it. It may look a little bulky, but it works. As for the thickness is a limitless over a half inch.

Not at all. I just replaced my old Samsung battery with the Anker 3100. It's the same size as the battery that comes with your phone. Anything else is an imitation.

Hi, I'm not home at the moment, but I believe I still have my 3500 back and battery. I also got the smaller extended battery option (2100 or 2400 I believe) and ended up using it instead. You can have mine if you like. Louis

I've read from other posts that the main difference is longer battery life. I've not used mine long enough to verify that.
